More Info

The rules of this game are simple: sixteen average Americans (eighteen in seasons 8, 9 and 11, nineteen in season 14 and twenty in seasons 10, 13 and 16) are abandoned in the middle of some of the most unforgiving places on earth. Divided into teams, they particiapte in challenges and every three days, the losing tribe must trek to Tribal Council to vote out one of their own. Halfway through the game, the game shifts to individual competitions when the tribes merge and become one, making the game every man for himself.

The game is simple: Outwit, Outplay, Outlast, by winning Immunity, thus not being eligible to have votes cast against yourself. However, the players must be careful about who they send packing - after the merge, a jury of seven begins to form, and each week they return to watch the Tribal Council ceremony. At the end of the game, they vote for one of the members of the final two to win One Million Dollars. Who will become the next Survivor?

Generally, each season begins with a twist - something different to surprise the new castaways. Survivor is a game of adaptation, and the final two of each season, listed below, were the players most able to adapt to their surroundings and to the people they are playing with. Survivor focuses on the people, and the social commentary that surrounds them. How can these players Outwit, Outplay, and Outlast is the question that the game revolves around.

  • Survivor: Micronesia - Reunion Show Live Thoughts

    Ah, yes, the Survivor Live Reunion show.  These are the things I watch the reunion show for: to see the excess of make up worn by the women, to see who has gained the most weight since the island, to see who is tense around who.  The word is that Amanda Kimmel and Ozzy Lusth have continued their romance since the season ended.  We will get confirmation, one would assume, on tonight's broadcast.  Maybe we'll even get a wedding proposal (I hope not).  It was a great Survivor season, with all sorts of nonsense abounding, so the reunion show should be pretty fun.  I'll be here throughout the hour, giving my live thoughts. 

  • Survivor: Micronesia - Finale Live Thoughts

    Cirie Fields , Parvati Shallow , Natalie Bolton and Amanda Kimmel .  One of those four women are going to win Survivor : Micronesia .  Throughout the season, the ladies proved once and for all that brains are more important than brawn.  While the men were indescribably dumb at times during the Survivor season, you still have to bow down to the women - their level of manipulation has been astounding.  The good cop/bad cop routine earlier this week that sent Erik over the edge was a sight to behold.  Tonight, Survivor hits us up with its two-hour finale, followed by the one-hour reunion show.  I'll be here all night, keeping up to date on the proceedings.  My prediction for winner: Amanda. 

  • Exclusive Interview: Erik Reichenbach of 'Survivor: Micronesia'

    On last night's episode of Survivor , the remaining women in the game convinced Erik to hand his individual immunity to Natalie as a sign of good faith at tribal council.  They then proceeded to vote his stupid butt out of the game.  Some call when he did stupidity.  Others say he was too trusting, too naive.  Erik just really wanted to redeem himself and gain the trust of the women.  Instead, his attempt at an act of good faith ended up being his undoing.  Today, Erik spoke to BuddyTV in an exclusive interview about his dumb move, his dreams of getting on the show, and Sunday night's exciting live finale! Below, you will find the complete transcript and mp3 of the interview.
