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. |

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. |

|
+ | |||
+ | {{S|38}} expanded on this format, bringing back four former castaways and assigning two to each tribe of new players. Meanwhile, {{S|45}} went in the opposite direction, giving [[Bruce Perreault|one former castaway]] a second chance after being [[Evacuation|medically evacuated]] on the very first day of {{S|44}}, where he was the only returning player on the entire cast, and by extension his tribe as well. |

+ | 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. |

Latest revision as of 03:37, 31 January 2024
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
Also informally known as the "Captains" format, 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. Meanwhile, Survivor 45 went in the opposite direction, giving one former castaway a second chance after being medically evacuated on the very first day of Survivor 44, where he was the only returning player on the entire cast, and by extension his tribe as well.
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.

- Every season prior to Edge of Extinction has produced at least one returning player.
- However, no players who debuted in Caramoan have returned. The only returnees from this season, Andrea Boehlke and Malcolm Freberg, were on it as returnees themselves.

- Among the nine seasons that featured a mix of new and returning players, Edge of Extinction and Survivor 45 are the only seasons where all the returning players were voted out before the Final Tribal Council.

- Andrea Boehlke has received more votes over her Survivor career than any other returning player, with 36 total votes.
- Cirie Fields, Aubry Bracco, Rob Mariano, and Parvati Shallow are the only contestants to make it to the finale episode of a season on three separate occasions.

- Three of the five all-returnee seasons that had Tribe Switches (All-Stars, Cambodia, Game Changers) have all featured one tribe that did not have at least one player stay on it from the beginning of the game until the merge, with all the original members switching to another tribe at some point or being eliminated pre-merge. The tribes in question are Mogo Mogo, Ta Keo, and Nuku.
