Based on the Swedish series ‘Expedition Robinson,’ CBS’ ‘Survivor’ is a reality competition series created by Charlie Parsons that puts together a group of strangers in a secluded yet gorgeous location where they must fight for survival and provide fire, food, and shelter for themselves. On top of that, the contestants indulge in all kinds of challenges against one another that test their physical and mental strength.
