'''''Australian Survivor''''' is an Australian [[adventure]] [[reality game show]] based on the international ''[[Survivor (franchise)|Survivor]]'' format. Following the premise of other versions of the ''Survivor'' format, the show features a group of contestants, referred to as "castaways" as they are marooned in an isolated location. The castaways must provide food, water, fire, and shelter for themselves. The contestants compete in various challenges for rewards and [[immunity (reality television)|immunity]] from elimination. The contestants are progressively eliminated from the game as they are voted out of the game by their fellow castaways. The final castaway remaining is awarded the title of "Sole Survivor" and the grand prize of [[Australian dollar|A$]]500,000.

The series first aired in 2002 on the [[Nine Network]], who {{as of|2023|lc=y}}, also hold the first-run Australian broadcast rights to the [[Survivor (American TV series)|American edition of ''Survivor'']]. In 2006, a [[celebrity]] edition aired on the [[Seven Network]]. Both iterations of the series only lasted one season due to low ratings.<ref name="torch lit">{{cite web |last=Knox |first=David |date=2013-08-07 |title=Could Survivor Australia's torch be lit once more? |url=http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2013/08/could-survivor-australias-torch-be-lit-once-more.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151120053342/http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2013/08/could-survivor-australias-torch-be-lit-once-more.html |archive-date=2015-11-20 |access-date=2015-11-20 |website=[[TV Tonight]]}}</ref>

In November 2015, [[Network Ten]] announced at its network [[upfronts]] that it would be reviving the series in 2016.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Cronin |first=Seanna |date=2015-11-19 |title=Channel 10 adds Survivor Australia to 2016 reality line-up |work=[[Sunshine Coast Daily]] |publisher=[[Daily Telegraph (Sydney)|Daily Telegraph]] |url=http://www.northernstar.com.au/news/channel-10-adds-survivor-australia-2016-reality-li/2846843/ |url-status=live |access-date=2015-11-19 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151120022036/http://www.northernstar.com.au/news/channel-10-adds-survivor-australia-2016-reality-li/2846843/ |archive-date=2015-11-20}}</ref> The series commenced airing on 21 August 2016.

Most recently, ''Australian Survivor'' is aired the 12th season titled ''[[Australian Survivor: Brains V Brawn II|Brains V Brawn II]]'' set on the island of [[Upolu]] in [[Samoa]], in early 2025.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://tvtonight.com.au/2024/05/still-to-come-on-10.html | title=Still to come on 10.... &#124; TV Tonight | date=17 May 2024 }}</ref> In late 2024, the show was renewed for a shorter second edition for 2025, and the 13th season overall, titled ''[[Australian Survivor: Australia V The World|Australia V The World]]'' also set in Samoa.

== Format ==
{{further|Survivor (franchise)#Format}}

The show follows the same general format as the other editions of ''Survivor''. To begin, the players are split into two or three tribes and taken to a remote, isolated location. They are forced to live off the land with meagre supplies for several weeks. Frequent physical and mental [[Survivor (franchise)#Challenges|challenges]] are used to pit the tribes against each other for rewards such as food, luxuries, or for [[Immunity challenge|immunity]], forcing the other tribe to attend [[Tribal Council (Survivor)|Tribal Council]], where they must vote one of their tribemates out of the game by [[secret ballot]].

About halfway through the game, the tribes are [[Survivor (franchise)#Tribal merge|merged]] into a single tribe, and challenges are on an individual basis; winning immunity prevents that player from being voted out. Most players voted out during this stage become members of the Tribal Council Jury. When only two or three players remain, the [[Survivor (franchise)#Final Tribal Council|Final Tribal Council]] is held. The finalists plead their case to the Jury about why they should win the game. The jurors then have the opportunity to interrogate the finalists before casting their vote for which finalist should be awarded the title of Sole Survivor and win the grand prize of [[Australian dollar|A$]]500,000 (the grand prize was A$250,000 prize in the shorter [[Australian Survivor: Australia V The World|''Australia V The World'' edition]] and a A$100,000 charity prize in the [[Australian Survivor season 2|2006 celebrity edition]]).

Like other editions of the show, the Australian edition has introduced numerous modifications or twists on the core rules to prevent players from over-relying on strategies that succeeded in prior seasons or other editions of ''Survivor''. These changes have included tribe switches, players being exiled from their tribe for a short period of time, hidden immunity idols that players can use to save themselves or another player at Tribal Council from being voted off, voting powers that can be used to influence the result at Tribal Council and players being given a chance to return following their elimination.

==''Survivor'' in Australia==
The first Australian version of the ''Survivor'' format was filmed in late 2001 and aired in 2002 on the [[Nine Network]]. The program was a contractual obligation if the network were to be allowed to continue to broadcast [[Survivor (American TV series)|American ''Survivor'']].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2002-10-15 |title=Survival of the fittest |work=[[Sydney Morning Herald]] |url=http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/10/14/1034561099400.html |url-status=live |access-date=2016-06-24 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160604095253/http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/10/14/1034561099400.html |archive-date=2016-06-04}}</ref> The program was criticised for poor casting and lower production value than the popular American edition and it was not renewed due to low ratings. The Nine Network still hold the first-run rights to American ''Survivor'' and have continued to broadcast the American edition of the program ever since.<ref name="torch lit" /> Since 2013, recent seasons air on Nine's secondary channel; [[9Go!]] and streamed on [[9Now]] within hours of the original American airing,<ref>{{cite web |last=Knox |first=David |date=2013-01-30 |title=Airdate: Survivor: Caramoan: Fans v Favourites |url=http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2013/01/airdate-survivor-caramoan-fans-v-favourites.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304111607/http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2013/01/airdate-survivor-caramoan-fans-v-favourites.html |archive-date=2016-03-04 |access-date=2016-06-24 |website=[[TV Tonight]] |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Knox |first=David |date=2015-09-14 |title=Returning: Survivor |url=http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2015/09/returning-survivor-9.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160818070739/http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2015/09/returning-survivor-9.html |archive-date=2016-08-18 |access-date=2016-06-24 |website=[[TV Tonight]] |language=en-US}}</ref> with most seasons since 2015 having the finale broadcast as a [[Simulcast]] of the [[Eastern Time Zone|American Eastern Time]] broadcast, across Australia.<ref name="auto">{{Cite web|url=https://tvtonight.com.au/category/ratings|title=Ratings|accessdate=18 December 2022}}</ref>

In 2006, the [[Seven Network]] found a loophole in the contract between the Nine Network and Castaway Television, which allowed them to produce a celebrity version of the series due to a celebrity format being licensed separately from the original format. The Seven Network did not renew the series.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2006-05-29 |title=Celebs to survive on 7 |work=[[Herald Sun]] |url=http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,19289385-2902,00.html |url-status=dead |access-date=2006-08-31 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071222224348/http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0%2C21985%2C19289385-2902%2C00.html |archive-date=2007-12-22}}</ref>

In November 2015, [[Network 10|Network Ten]] revealed at its upfront event that it would air a new season featuring regular contestants to air in the last quarter of 2016.<ref>{{cite web |last=Knox |first=David |date=2015-11-19 |title=TEN Upfronts 2016: Survivor, Jessica Marais, Anh Do — and Nigella! |url=http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2015/11/ten-upfronts-2016-survivor-jessica-marais-anh-do-and-nigella.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151120071531/http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2015/11/ten-upfronts-2016-survivor-jessica-marais-anh-do-and-nigella.html |archive-date=2015-11-20 |access-date=2015-11-20 |website=[[TV Tonight]]}}</ref> This new season gave ''Australian Survivor'' the distinction of being one of the few Australian programs to have aired across all three major commercial television networks in Australia. ''Australian Survivor'' has continued to air mostly yearly. The show's most recent season concluded in March 2025.<ref>{{cite web |title=Australian Survivor |url=https://10play.com.au/australian-survivor |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210913060611/https://10play.com.au/australian-survivor |archive-date=2021-09-13 |access-date=2021-09-17 |website=10 Play |language=en-AU}}</ref> With a second shorter season ''[[Australian Survivor: Australia V The World|Australia V The World]]'' set to air in mid-late 2025.

Following Network Ten's acquisition by CBS (the American broadcaster of the format) in 2017, starting in December 2018, CBS made the complete American ''Survivor'' series available on their paid Australian streaming platform, [[Paramount+]] (previously known as 10 All Access until August 2021). The broadcasts include ''[[Survivor: Marquesas|Survivor US: Marquesas]]'', which never aired in Australia due to Nine Network's commitment in airing their 2002 version of ''Australian Survivor''.<ref>{{cite web |date=2018-10-31 |title=Network 10 and CBS today announce 10 All Access {{!}} Includes past US Survivor seasons |url=https://brinkofreality.com.au/2018/10/31/network-10-and-cbs-today-announce-10-all-access/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190327210157/https://brinkofreality.com.au/2018/10/31/network-10-and-cbs-today-announce-10-all-access/ |archive-date=2019-03-27 |access-date=2018-12-10 |website=Brink Of Reality}}</ref> Originally, a select few seasons are also uploaded to Network Ten's free streaming site, [[10 Play (Network 10)|10 Play]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Survivor US |url=https://10play.com.au/survivor-us |url-status=live |access-date=2021-08-18 |website=10 Play |language=en-AU|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200401212245/https://10play.com.au/survivor-us |archive-date=1 April 2020 }}</ref> As of June 2022, all seasons are uploaded to 10Play.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://10play.com.au/survivor-us/articles/survivors-ready-watch-41-seasons-of-survivor-us-now-on-10-play/tpa220530gsoqd |title=Survivors Ready?

==Companion series==
In addition to the main program, two companion [[web series|web programs]] are also produced for ''Australian Survivor'' with both airings on 10's free [[video on demand]] streaming service [[10Play]]. 10Play also hosts deleted scenes called "Secret Scenes" as well as additional interviews from the contestants.

===''Jury Villa''===
Introduced in the 3rd season, ''Jury Villa'' is based on the ''Ponderosa'' series from American ''Survivor''. The series follows the castaways that are voted off during the jury phase of the game as they become members of the Tribal Council Jury and interact with one another in the villa. Each episode focuses primarily on the latest evictee and their arrival in the villa. Episodes are released through [[10Play]] following the airing of each episode of the main show of the Jury phase of the game.<ref>{{cite web |last=Knox |first=David |date=2016-09-26 |title=Australian Survivor: The Jury Villa |url=https://tvtonight.com.au/2016/09/australian-survivor-the-jury-villa.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190826011356/https://tvtonight.com.au/2016/09/australian-survivor-the-jury-villa.html |archive-date=2019-08-26 |access-date=2019-08-26 |website=[[TV Tonight]] |language=en-AU}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |date=2016-09-26 |title=Australian Survivor to premiere The Jury Villa online |url=http://www.tvweeklogieawards.com.au/news/articles/2016/9/australian-survivor-to-premiere-the-jury-villa-online/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161111042239/http://www.tvweeklogieawards.com.au/news/articles/2016/9/australian-survivor-to-premiere-the-jury-villa-online/ |archive-date=2016-11-11 |access-date=2016-11-11 |website=[[TV Week]]}}</ref>
