How to Watch ‘Survivor 50’ Episode 2 Without Cable
The landmark 50th season of Survivor — packed with returning players like Cirie Fields, Benjamin “Coach” Wade and Mike White — premiered last week on CBS. The reality competition returns with a new episode this week, with former castaways continuing to vie for $1 million and the title of Sole Survivor.
The theme of season 50 is “In the Hands of the Fans.” Viewers previously voted on game elements such as “Idols or No Idols” and “Final Four Fire Making: Keep It or Lose It,” and players will find out what fans voted for while competing in Fiji, according to CBS. A season 50 trailer name-drops celebrities like Zac Brown, Billie Eilish, Jimmy Fallon and YouTuber MrBeast. Here’s everything you need to know to watch without cable.
When to watch Survivor 50 on Paramount Plus
You can stream new episodes of Survivor season 50 on Paramount Plus, but your tier determines when you can watch them. If you have Paramount Plus Premium, you can stream your local CBS station — and episode 2 — live on Wednesday, March 4 at 8 p.m. ET/8 p.m. PT/7 p.m. CT. If you have Paramount Plus Essential, you can catch the installment on demand on Thursday, March 5.
To watch CBS without cable, you can also consider a live TV streaming service that carries the channel in its lineup. YouTube TV, Hulu Plus Live TV and the DirecTV MyNews skinny bundle are all options, but Paramount Plus is a less expensive route.
Paramount Plus costs more as of early 2026. You can get the ad-supported Essential version for $9 a month or $90 a year, or the ad-free Premium version for $14 a month or $140 a year. In addition to access to your live local CBS station, Premium gives you downloads and the ability to watch more Showtime programs than Essential.
