    is a U.S. reality-based competition television show, based on the Swedish television series Expedition Robinson created by Charlie Parsons in 1997. It premiered on May 31, 2000, and is currently hosted by Jeff Probst.

    The United States version is produced by Survivor Entertainment Group, a joint company created by the television network CBS and Executive Producer Mark Burnett.

    An instant hit in the United States, the first eleven seasons of Survivor regularly rated among the top ten most-watched television shows. The show is considered the pioneer of the reality television genre, being the first highly rated and profitable reality show on television, and often considered to be one of the best shows during the 2000s.

    The show has regularly been nominated for various Emmy Awards, such as Outstanding Cinematography for Reality Programming and Outstanding Picture Editing for Reality Programming. Jeff Probst has won four consecutive years for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program. Survivor has also won a GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Reality Program, for the show's handling of an incident between Jeff Varner and Zeke Smith in Survivor: Game Changers.

    Similar to the original Expedition Robinson, sixteen to twenty people, referred to as "castaways" or "survivors", split into two or more groups, referred to as "tribes", would be taken to a remote location, most often tropical, and forced to live off the land for the duration of the game. Every so often, the tribes would meet together to compete for reward, usually items to improve island living conditions or meals, or for immunity from being voted out at Tribal Council.

    Usually signalling the halfway point of the season, the competing tribes would form one final tribe in an event called the merge. At this point, the castaways would start competing in challenges individually (though some post-merge Reward Challenges may divide the remaining castaways into teams). At least one person will win individual immunity in the form of a necklace, preventing that castaway from being voted out at the next Tribal Council. Most castaways eliminated after the merge will begin forming the jury. Once the season gets down to the Final Two or Final Three, the finalists will plead their case to the jury. The jury will then cast their vote for the castaway they consider should be the Sole Survivor, in addition to the $1 million prize.

    Viewership Note: Starting in the 2013-2014 series rankings (Blood vs. Water and Cagayan) and ending in the 2018-2019 series rankings (David vs. Goliath and Edge of Extinction), the two seasons aired in that time were listed under Survivor, rather than separately.
