The next Survivor broadcast airs Wednesday night at 8PM ET/PT on CBS, and Probst told Entertainment Weekly, "You really start to see the emotion come to the surface."
"There's a truly romantic story of love," continued Probst, "there's a moment of empathy and comfort from someone you wouldn't expect, [and] there's another exciting challenge that results in more tears at the thought of Tribal Council."
As for the season in general, Probst suggested fans can expect big things whether they like it or not since the entire cast is seeking redemption with their second chance.
"In our 31 seasons, we've never had a group that came into the game with such devotion to the game. They were in it from the moment their journey through Angkor Wat started. They were playing hard the minute they dove off the boat. They pulled off massive blindsides and shifted the strategy of the game," Probst revealed.

"If you told me I could bring all 20 back again and do it again I would say yes. I absolutely enjoyed every single person and I thank them for what they gave. Survivor is an ass-kicking adventure and it is not for the faint of heart or those who are more comfortable on the couch. This group has waited a long time for this opportunity and I think you'll agree that they deliver."
Probst said producers can plan all they want, but the makings of a great season are in the players' hands.
"The real truth is that ultimately we turn the show over to the players and they do whatever they want," the host told EW. "That's their only job: play! Our job is to capture their story."
