Survivor: All-Stars is the eighth installment of the popular television reality show Survivor. It was taped in 2003 and debuted in the United States on CBS on February 1, 2004. It was set on the Pearl Islands of Panama, where the previous Survivor: Pearl Islands had just finished. The winner of this series was Amber Brkich, whose 4-3 victory over Rob Mariano was announced on live television on May 9, 2004. At the end of the series a twist called America's Tribal Council was broadcast live on May 13, 2004. It involved the public voting for who they wanted to win a second million dollar prize. When the show was broadcast Rupert Boneham won the million dollars.
This season of the series featured the return of eighteen players from previous seasons, divided into three teams: Chapera, Mogo Mogo, and Saboga. The three tribes each are named after various of the Pearl Islands. During the fifth episode, the Saboga tribe was dissolved and its members divided between the other two tribes. In the ninth episode, the ten remaining contestants randomly chose new tribal memberships; improbably, every contestant but Brkich swapped teams. One episode later, the two teams merged into a tribe called Chaboga Mogo, named by the Survivors.
This season was released on DVD on September 14, 2004.
The tribe colors used were:
- Chapera - Red
- Mogo Mogo - Green
- Saboga - Yellow
- Chaboga Mogo - Blue
For the second and third times ever in Survivor, two contestants voluntarily quit the game for personal reasons rather than being voted off. Jenna Morasca left during episode three over mounting concern for the health of her mother, who succumbed to cancer eight days after Jenna's resignation. Sue Hawk left distraught in episode six, one day after an incident during an immunity challenge in which a naked Richard Hatch had brief but inappropriate bodily contact with her.
One unexpected aspect of this series was the transformation of the relationship between Amber Brkich and Rob Mariano from an alliance within the game to a romantic relationship. This climaxed during the live finale when just before the reading of the final votes, Mariano proposed marriage and Brkich accepted.
A second surprise at the reunion show was the announcement that a second million dollar prize would be awarded to the All-Star player who received the most votes from viewers who could call in or vote online. The winner, announced on May 13, was Rupert Boneham. Boneham won an overwhelming victory over the other seventeen players, receiving 85% of the thirty eight million votes cast (Tom Buchanan, Colby Donaldson and Rob Mariano also finished in the top four).

No players tied their previous finish; however, if one is concerned about the order in which they were voted out rather than the order they finished, then Jerri Manthey tied where she was last time, being voted out ninth both in the Outback and on All-Stars.
