The secret to Survivor’s endurance over the years actually has many elements.
There’s no shortage of long-running competitive shows out there, but after 43 seasons spanning the course of 20-plus years, Survivor has proven itself to be a staple of the reality TV genre. The success of the show attests to its ability to remain not just on the air, but also to adapt to different types of TV, especially during the rise of streaming services .

The main premise may be simple, but Survivor is far from a one-trick pony.
Survivor places heavy importance on being physically capable, but also capable of strategy. But both strength and strategy will fail you if you don’t have the social skills to build a solid alliance with competitors.

Things like the immunity idol, the tribe bandanas, and the immunity necklace all have a timeless feel to them, and the power attributed to these objects gives them great importance.
