These are the best Survivor seasons, according to viewers

The highly anticipated Season 46 of Survivor is set to air on February 28, and it has viewers reminiscing the past. Which were the top Survivor seasons over the years?

The popular CBS reality survival competition first premiered in 2000 and since then has had a successful long run with over 45 seasons. The show is hosted by Jeff Probst and centers on a group of contestants who are stranded on a remote island.

The players then are asked to go through various physical and mental challenges on the island for prize money. The cast line-up for Season 46 was revealed by CBS and it is announced to be set in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji.

Here are the top 5 Survivor seasons over the years according to the fans.

Survivor Season 20: Heroes vs. Villains

Season 20 of The Survivor was crowned a fan-favorite due to its concept and cast, where ex-islanders were called back on the show for one more round of the games.

The contestants were divided into two teams based on the image they had created for themselves during their time on the show. The teams included the Villains like Parvati Shallow, Boston Rob, and Russel Hantz.

On the other hand, was the team Heroes which included soft people like Tom Westman, Rupert Boneham, and Candice Woodcock. With that, the season became a battle between morals, ethics, and the best ways to survive on a deserted island.

Survivor Season 16: Fans vs. Favorites

Season 16 of the reality show was also cast with ex-islanders – however, unlike other seasons the reality stars were up against their own fans!

One tribe was made up of Survivor veterans and the other was made up of Survivor viewers who had always dreamt of testing their luck.

The result of this combination gave birth to witty moves and unseen strategies. The season also served us an all-female alliance led by the villainess Parvati Shallow.

Survivor Season 28: Brawns vs. Brains vs. Beauty

Survivor Season 28 was filmed in Cagayan and served as an interesting social experiment. The season answered the age-old question of which one is better for survival; brains, brawns, or beauty.

The newcomers were divided into three tribes based on strength, intellect, and beauty. The castaways immediately bonded as teams because they had something to prove.

Survivor Season 27: Blood vs. Water

The creative brutality of this season is what placed it high in the fan favorite list. Survivor Season 27 not only brings back everyone’s favorite contestants but also puts them against their loved ones.

On Blood vs. Water, one tribe was made up of Survivor veterans, and the other was made up of their loved ones. The players were then forced to eliminate their family members for survival.

Survivor Season 31: Second Chance

Filmed in Cambodia, the thirty-first season of Survivor let viewers at home vote on who from the previous seasons they wanted to see on their screens once more.

The cast line-up was unexpected but led to some of Survivor’s most iconic moments. The cast included Kelley Wentworth, Tasha Fox, Spencer Bledsoe, and Jeremy Collins.
