Outback survival 101

Of all the spin-offs from the original US Survivor, reality show Australian Survivor is one of the best – and its high ratings means its renewal is almost guaranteed every season. So what makes the reality show from Down Under that popular? and his team have done and we try to use them as a guiding light, then obviously adapt it to the Australian culture. If you look at the US Blood vs Water seasons (27 in 2017 and 29 in 2018), they were two of the strongest seasons. So we’ve used that theme for our ninth season (which aired in early 2022) and it’s been brilliant.”
