This paper outlines the various ways Survivor has been able to outwit, outlast, and outplay for twenty-seven seasons. This award-winning American reality competition show tests the physical, mental, emotional, and social limits of anyone who is willing to be “stranded” on a deserted island in order to have the chance to win $1,000,000. As contestants try to adapt to their new island lifestyle, producers try to adapt new ways to keep the audience engaged from season to season. This paper gives readers a detailed history of how the show came to be as well as prediction as to where the show will and will not go in the future.
