CBS ANNOUNCES THE TWO FORMER CASTAWAYS, OZZY LUSTH AND BENJAMIN "COACH" WADE, WHO WILL JOIN THE TRIBES ON "SURVIVOR: SOUTH PACIFIC"

LOS ANGELES Aug. 24, 2011 - CBS announced today that two former Survivors, Ozzy Lusth and Benjamin "Coach" Wade, will join the 16 previously announced castaways on SURVIVOR: SOUTH PACIFIC when the Emmy Award-winning series returns for its 23rd season with a special 90-minute edition, Wednesday, Sept. 14 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Having never been awarded the title of Sole Survivor, Ozzy and "Coach" return to compete for the $1 million prize and a last shot at redemption. Each one will join a separate tribe of new castaways at the start of the game, but it's up to the tribe to decide if they will welcome the knowledge of an experienced veteran, or view these former castaways as a threat in the ultimate battle to outwit, outplay and outlast.
