==Origins==
 
==Origins==
The idea of former players returning occurred in {{S|8}}. Executive Producer [[Mark Burnett]] wanted to showcase "The best of the best" after the ratings increase of {{S|7}}. During pre-production for ''All-Stars'', Burnett wrote down the series' most likable, villainous, and memorable players on a legal pad and shortlisted eighteen names within minutes.

===All-Stars===
 
===All-Stars===
All-Stars seasons feature a cast comprised entirely of returning players. The eponymous season, {{S4|8}}, saw 18 returnees divided into three competing tribes. [[Amber Brkich]] ultimately won the season against [[Rob Mariano]]. The All-Stars twist was revived for the ten-year anniversary season, ''[[Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains|Heroes vs. Villains]]''. This season divided the returnees based on the heroic or villainous reputations. [[Sandra Diaz-Twine]] became the first two-time winner of ''Survivor'', beating [[Parvati Shallow]] and [[Russell Hantz]].

"All-Stars" seasons feature casts comprised entirely of returning players. The eponymous season, {{S2|8}}, saw 18 returnees divided into three competing tribes.
   
  +
The All-Stars twist was revived for the ten-year anniversary season, {{S|20}}. This season divided the returnees based on their heroic or villainous reputations.
Although proving to be a success for fans of the show, some critics argued that the survival aspects were completely removed in favor of strategy and exuberant challenges. Fans also responded negatively to players that, according to popular opinion, had no plausible reason to return. Notable casting controversies include [[Amber Brkich]] in {{S4|8}} (who had been a backup to [[Elisabeth Hasselbeck|Elisabeth Filarski]] and [[Colleen Haskell]]) and [[Candice Woodcock]] in ''[[Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains|Heroes vs. Villains]] ''(whose most notable action in her past Survivor career was Mutiny, not the most heroic action but not necessarily meaning she belonged on the Villains tribe).
 
===Fans vs. Favorites===
 
Although initially intending to produce a second all-stars season, Burnett pushed for ''Survivor'' to experiment with different twists in their 16th season. The result was the Fans vs. Favorites twist that saw a tribe of ten returning players pitted against a tribe of ten "die-hard" fans of the show. Both iterations of this twist have seen the [[Malakal|favorites]] [[Bikal|tribe]] comprised solely of contestants who had only played once previously and who did not win.
 
   
  +
{{S|31}} featured a "Second Chance" theme, consisting of contestants who played only once and lost; and its cast was entirely chosen by viewers through an online poll.
The first installment, {{S|16}}, became one of the series' most popular installments. Returning player [[Parvati Shallow]] beat out fellow favorite [[Amanda Kimmel]] in a 5-3 vote.
 
   
  +
{{S|34}} featured former contestants who contributed to the evolution of ''Survivor'' strategy and gameplay.
The twist was brought back ten seasons later for {{S|26}}. Returning player [[John Cochran]] beat out fellow favorite [[Dawn Meehan]] and fan [[Sherri Biethman]] in a unanimous 8-0-0 vote.
 
===One Returnee per Tribe===
 
The One Returnee per Tribe twist sees two to three returning players competing against new castaways, with one returnee placed on each of the competing tribes. In all seasons featuring this twist, a returning player has made it to the [[Final Tribal Council]].
 
   
  +
{{S|40}}, the twenty-year anniversary season, consisted of former [[Sole Survivor]]s returning to try and win for their second ([[Sandra Diaz-Twine|or third]]) time.
The twist was first introduced in {{S|11}}. Two former castaways from {{S|10}}, [[Bobby Jon Drinkard]] and [[Stephenie LaGrossa]], returned for a shot at redemption after being the final two members of the infamous [[Ulong]] tribe. New contestant [[Danni Boatwright]] won the season against Stephenie.
 
   
 
===Fans vs. Favorites===
The [[Redemption Island (Twist)|Redemption Island twist]] saw the resurrection of this method for introducing Returnees. In {{S|22}}, [[Rob Mariano]] and [[Russell Hantz]] were brought back to settle their rivalry from {{S|20}}. Russell was targeted early when his [[Zapatera|tribe]] threw a challenge to vote him out. Meanwhile, Rob won the game against fellow [[Ometepe]] tribemates [[Phillip Sheppard]] and [[Natalie Tenerelli]].
 
 
Although initially intending to produce a second all-stars season, Burnett pushed for ''Survivor'' to experiment with different twists in their 16th season. The result was the "Fans vs. Favorites" twist that saw a tribe of ten returning players pitted against a tribe of ten "superfans". {{S|16}} and {{S|26}} both utilized this format.
  +
 
===One Returnee per Tribe===
  +
This format features two to three former castaways, each being assigned to a tribe of new players. {{S|11}}, {{S|22}}, {{S|23}}, and {{S|25}} followed this format.
  +
  +
{{S|38}} expanded on this format, bringing back four former castaways and assigning two to each tribe of new players.
   
  +
===Blood vs. Water===
The Redemption Island format was revisited in {{S|23}}, with [[Coach Wade]] and [[Ozzy Lusth]] returning to improve on their weak social games. This was the first time the two returning players had not previously competed on the same season. New contestant [[Sophie Clarke]] claimed the prize, beating Coach and [[Albert Destrade]].
 
 
Another type of "Returnees vs. New Players" format is the couples format, where returnees would compete against people they personally know. It was first used in {{S|27}}, where ten returning castaways would compete against their loved ones, similar to the "Fans vs. Favorites" format. However, each castaway would compete individually, so a castaway would still be in the game even after their partner was voted out. The twist would play its part when a castaway could opt to replace their partner on {{dab|Redemption Island|twist}} before a [[duel]] took place, thus allowing their partner to take their place on their tribe. While the {{dab|Blood vs. Water|twist}} twist would return in {{S|29}}, it was done with all new players and no Redemption Island.
   
{{S|25}} introduced three previous contestants, [[Russell Swan]], [[Michael Skupin]], and [[Jonathan Penner]], all of whom were evacuated due to medical reasons. This is the only iteration of the One Returnee per Tribe twist to bring back more than two returning players. New contestant [[Denise Stapley]] won the game against [[Lisa Whelchel]] and Skupin.
 
===Couples===
 
Another type of Returnees vs. New Players format is the couples format, where returnees would compete against people they personally know. It was first used in {{S|27}}, where ten returning castaways would compete against their loved ones. However, each castaway would compete individually, so a castaway would still be in the game even after its partner was voted out. The twist would play its part when a castaway can opt to replace its partner who is currently on [[Redemption Island (twist)|Redemption Island]] before a duel takes place, thus allowing its partner to take its place in the tribe.
 
==Success in the Game==
 
It should be noted that during every season thus far that has featured returning players competing against new players, at least one has made it to the Final Two/Three in those seasons. These players include [[Stephenie LaGrossa]] (''Guatemala''), [[Amanda Kimmel]] (''Micronesia''), [[Parvati Shallow]] (''Micronesia''), [[Rob Mariano]] (''Redemption Island''), [[Coach Wade]] (''South Pacific''), [[Michael Skupin]] (''Philippines''), [[Dawn Meehan]] (''Caramoan''), [[John Cochran]] (''Caramoan''), [[Gervase Peterson]] (''Blood vs. Water''), [[Monica Culpepper]] (''Blood vs. Water'') and [[Tyson Apostol]] (''Blood vs. Water'').

Revision as of 12:01, 17 May 2020

Returning Player seasons offer the opportunity to former contestants to play the game of Survivor again.

Origins

The idea of former players returning originally occurred in Survivor: All-Stars. Executive Producer Mark Burnett wanted to showcase "The best of the best" after the ratings increase of Survivor: Pearl Islands. During pre-production for All-Stars, Burnett wrote down the series' most likable, villainous, and memorable players on a legal pad and shortlisted eighteen names within minutes.

All-Stars

"All-Stars" seasons feature casts comprised entirely of returning players. The eponymous season, All-Stars, saw 18 returnees divided into three competing tribes.

The All-Stars twist was revived for the ten-year anniversary season, Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains. This season divided the returnees based on their heroic or villainous reputations.

Survivor: Cambodia featured a "Second Chance" theme, consisting of contestants who played only once and lost; and its cast was entirely chosen by viewers through an online poll.

Survivor: Game Changers featured former contestants who contributed to the evolution of Survivor strategy and gameplay.

Survivor: Winners at War, the twenty-year anniversary season, consisted of former Sole Survivors returning to try and win for their second (or third) time.

Fans vs. Favorites

Although initially intending to produce a second all-stars season, Burnett pushed for Survivor to experiment with different twists in their 16th season. The result was the "Fans vs. Favorites" twist that saw a tribe of ten returning players pitted against a tribe of ten "superfans". Survivor: Micronesia and Survivor: Caramoan both utilized this format.

One Returnee per Tribe

This format features two to three former castaways, each being assigned to a tribe of new players. Survivor: Guatemala, Survivor: Redemption Island, Survivor: South Pacific, and Survivor: Philippines followed this format.

Survivor: Edge of Extinction expanded on this format, bringing back four former castaways and assigning two to each tribe of new players.

Blood vs. Water

Another type of "Returnees vs. New Players" format is the couples format, where returnees would compete against people they personally know. It was first used in Survivor: Blood vs. Water, where ten returning castaways would compete against their loved ones, similar to the "Fans vs. Favorites" format. However, each castaway would compete individually, so a castaway would still be in the game even after their partner was voted out. The twist would play its part when a castaway could opt to replace their partner on Redemption Island before a duel took place, thus allowing their partner to take their place on their tribe. While the Blood vs. Water twist would return in Survivor: San Juan del Sur, it was done with all new players and no Redemption Island.
