Survivor România
Survivor România is an Romanian reality game show based on the international Survivor format. Following the premise of other versions of the format, the program features a group of contestants who are marooned in an isolated island location, where they must provide food, water, fire, and shelter for themselves. The contestants compete in challenges for rewards and immunity from elimination. The contestants are progressively eliminated from the game as they vote each other off the island until only one remains and is awarded the title of "Sole Survivor" and the grand prize of 250.000 de lei.[1]

The series first aired in 2009 on the Kanal D named Rătăciți în Panama (Lost in Panama). In 2016, anothar edition aired on the Pro TV named Supraviețuitorul (Survivor). Both iterations of the series only lasted one season due to low ratings.[2][3]

Format and rules
The series follows the same general format as the other editions of the show. The players are split between two "tribes", are taken to a remote isolated location and are forced to live off the land with meager supplies for an extended period of time. Frequent physical and mental challenges are used to pit the teams against each other for rewards, such as food or luxuries, or for "immunity", forcing the other tribe to attend "Tribal Council", where they must vote off one of their players. Once about half the players are remaining, the tribes are merged into a single tribe, and competitions are on an individual basis; winning immunity prevents that player from being voted out.
In the Romanian version, the public votes for which player should be considered the "Sole Survivor" and be awarded the grand prize.
