Survivor was the first American hit reality game show where the contestant who managed to compete, strategise and avoid eliminations was crowned the winner. From The Bachelor to Top Chef, contemporary reality tv owes much to this series, which leaves strangers, often on an island, to fend for themselves for food, shelter and companionship in hopes of taking home the $1 million prize. The show is now in its 40th season.
