Survivor host Jeff Probst is already hyping up the upcoming 30th season of the CBS reality series as one of the best ever, in terms of casting.

The 30th season of Survivor is officially called Survivor: Worlds Apart and will contain three tribes separated by background/lifestyle. One tribe will be "white collar," which represents those who "make the rules," such as the rich executives of the world, the second tribe is "blue collar," which is those people who "follow the rules" and try to make an honest living and the third is "no collar," people who "break the rules" and aren't tethered to the system.

Probst spoke with Entertainment Weekly about Survivor 30 and was very praiseworthy of the season as a whole.

"Person for person and pound for pound, I will say that this is the best group of people I think we've ever had," Probst revealed. "That doesn't mean there aren't duds in the cast, but if you just had to take one entire group of people, I love this group. And I don't often come up front anymore and say I really like a season because I know that that's very biased and it's my own opinion. But just my own Jeff Probst opinion-I have not seen a second of footage cut yet. Just based on my experience, this was one of my favorite seasons of all time."

He also hyped up a new twist in the game that will take place at some point in the season.

"We have a new advantage in the game," Probst said. "Something we've toyed with for a long time and decided to do it this year, and it plays out great. I'll leave it at that for now."

With the tribes being split up by their various lots in life, it is similar to Survivor: Cagayan, which split the cast between brains, brawn and beauty. Like Cagayan, Probst said they went into the season just casting for interesting people and then sorted them into these tribes after discovering how well they fit into those roles of white collar, blue collar and no collar.

Survivor: Worlds Apart is scheduled to premiere Wednesday, Feb. 25 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
