Expeditie Robinson is a popular reality television program in Belgium and the Netherlands, that debuted in 2000. It was the second production worldwide of a format that was developed in the UK, a format that has since then also been produced in many other countries, most notable under the title Survivor.
The name of the show alludes to Robinson Crusoe.
Format
In most seasons, sixteen contestants are put into a survival situation and compete in a variety of physical challenges. Early in each season, two teams compete, but later the teams are merged and the competitions become individual ("samensmelting"). At the end of each show, one contestant is eliminated from the show by the others in a secret "Island Council" ballot.
