Revision as of 15:29, 4 August 2018
Australian Survivor is the Australian version of Survivor. It was first broadcast on February 13, 2002. Australian Survivor made a comeback in 2016 and is still airing today.
History
Australian television network Nine, which had originally aired the flagship American version, made an agreement with CBS, the network that produces the latter, and Castaway Television Productions, the company the owns the international Survivor franchise, that Nine was to be allowed to air the American series, provided they must produce a local edition of the franchise. The first Australian season was produced in 2002 and was hosted by journalist Lincoln Howes. Shoddy production value, underwhelming cast, stale story, and post-production issues reflected to poor ratings. Nine did not renew for a second season.[1]
Another Australian Network, Seven, took interest and renewed the franchise in 2006 with a celebrity edition the cast was cut down to 12 from the standard 16. This season featured celebrities competing for charity and was hosted by Ian Dickson. While this iteration were marginally better received by fans, ratings were still unimpressive. Seven also cancelled the series[2]
In 2016, Australia's third major television giant, Ten, had acquired the franchise and produced a third series, which was hosted by Jonathan LaPaglia. This version saw a dramatic increase of contestants competing, with 24; and introduced elements common in the American series such as Hidden Immunity Idols, Exile Island, game advantages, and the familiar Ancient Voices theme song. The 2016 season proved to be a ratings success, attributing to its high production value, highly competitive cast, an impressive host in LaPaglia, whose appearance and style of hosting was seen as almost similar to that of his US counterpart, Jeff Probst. A second season was aired the following year.
In late 2017, CBS had acquired ownership of the Network Ten, thus also buying the rights to the Australian Survivor brand.[3][4]
