INTRODUCTION The early 2000s was an exciting time for primetime entertainment. A new breed of television program was sweeping the nation’s airwaves that would forever change the American zeitgeist—reality television.1 Survivor (2000) is widely credited as the series that popularized and defined the modern concept of reality television.2 Commentators almost universally regard Mark Burnett’s pioneering program as the first commercially successful reality game show, and the numbers back up their assertion. During the summer of 2000, an average of 28.3 million viewers tuned into CBS Wednesday nights to see which “survivor” would be the next to be “voted off” the island.3 The show’s finale attracted an unprecedented 51.1 million viewers,4 greatly surpassing anyone’s wildest expectations, beating out the World Series, NBA finals, NCAA men’s basketball finals, and the Grammy Awards of that year.5 To put Survivor’s first season viewership in perspective, Game of Thrones, the most watched show during the summer of 2017, only attracted an average of 13.1 million viewers (less than * J.D.

The Sabermetrics of Survivor – The Role of In-Group Identity to Survival in Reality Television Andrew Hanson ABSTRACT Every day people are thrust into situations in which they are forced to work with individuals they don’t know. Often times, these people come from different backgrounds. The only rules these people are bound by are the laws and norms of society, which they may or may not break. In reality television game shows such as Survivor, a microcosm of real life and how we live is created. This paper examines how small group dynamics play out in the sixth season of the show “Survivor.” In the show strangers are forced to work together and create a society for themselves, while gradually eliminating each other as competitors from the game.
