Synopsis:
16 contestants spend 42 days stranded on a remote island, surviving on very few provisions and doing mental and physical tests, as they compete for $1,000,000 in prize money. After every episode (or every three days in real time), one survivor is voted off, until only one remains to take home the $1,000,000 prize. The Survivors must form their own cooperative society, building shelter, gathering and catching food, and participating in contests for rewards. Those who succeed in the day-to-day challenges will be rewarded with things to make life more bearable. Those who fail must do without.
