‘Survivor’ castaways who have appeared on other shows, from ‘Big Brother’ to ‘The Challenge’ to ‘The Amazing Race’ and beyond

If there is one thing to love about Survivor (aside from its intriguing strategy, gripping challenges, and dramatic tribal councils), it is the phenomenal cast that comes with each and every season, giving us new individuals to become fans of.

If you are an avid Survivor viewer, chances are you follow at least one of your favorite castaways on Instagram to keep up with their whereabouts after their season ends.

While we always love to see our favorite castaways return to the beach to play Survivor time and time again, it is fascinating when they shake it up by grazing our screens on programs we would have never expected, from American Ninja Warrior to Big Brother to The Challenge to The Amazing Race and beyond.

After searching the ends of the internet (even sleuthing all the way back to 2007), keep scrolling to see some of the other shows that our favorite castaways have been on, both pre-Survivor and post-Survivor — some of them might just surprise you!
