(KIWA Staff Photo)Mamanuca Islands, Fiji (Sioux County Radio) — The wait is nearly over for northwest Iowa viewers ready to follow Carter Krull on Survivor.
The Rock Rapids native and 2020 Central Lyon graduate makes his debut tonight as Season 51 premieres.
As Krull shared in our earlier feature, his journey started with years of watching the show with his family. Wednesday nights meant church, pizza, and debates about how he might perform in the challenges.
After host Jeff Probst encouraged viewers to apply, Krull recorded an audition video the next day. That decision ultimately landed the moving-company co-owner and family-farm helper a spot in the competition.
Ahead of the premiere, Krull said hearing from longtime fans around the area has made the experience more meaningful.
Tonight, viewers begin finding out how Krull fares in the pursuit of the million-dollar prize. The show airs at 7 p.m. on CBS, and the season will also stream on Paramount+.
