Australian Survivor - Season 1

First aired Aug 21, 2016Season 1

Set on the stunning South Pacific island of Samoa, contestants ranging in age from 23 to 62 are deprived of basic comforts and must build their own shelter, light their own fires, gather their own food and fend for themselves. A private investigator, a professional cricketer, a criminal lawyer, a firefighter and a magician are among the 24 contestants give up all creature comforts in a bid to win Australian Survivor. Their bodies are pushed to the extreme, competing in epic and physically demanding challenges, while mentally they must navigate their way through cunning and strategic gameplay. Faced with extreme temperatures and fierce tropical storms, contestants are stripped to their core – and only one will emerge triumphant. The ultimate winner will walk away with a life-changing experience, half a million dollars and the coveted title of Australia’s Sole Survivor 2016.

I love this version of Survivor so much. I'm American and I think this beats the heck out of the OG Survivor. The casting is fantastic, there are people I can actually relate to on this show. On the American version it's just all very Weird, very dramatic crybabies. Plus the American version is like 29 days now. Aussie Survivor is like 45 days or something. Oh also I really love Jonathan LaPaglia. He isn't fake and plastic like Jeff. Find a way to watch this show - I promise you won't regret it!
