Survivor Philippines: Palau

Survivor is a popular reality television game show format produced in many countries throughout the world. In the show, contestants are isolated in the wilderness and compete for cash and other prizes. The show uses a progressive elimination, allowing the contestants to vote off a tribe member, until only one final contestant remains and wins the title of “Sole Survivor”. The format for Survivor was created in 1992 by Charlie Parsons, and the first production of it was the Swedish show Expedition: Robinson in 1997.

GMA-7 has finally announced and revealed the names of the 16 castaways who will play and competing in the second season of Survivor Philippines in Palau, an island nation in the Pacific Ocean,the island of Pelileu to be exact. I’m not  a fan of this show but the Survivor itself, i enjoyed it every season.

The following description of the show is based primarily on the American version of Survivor, though the general format applies to all international versions.
