Banijay Rights has taken on two new adaptations of popular adventure reality show "Survivor," securing landmark co-production agreements confirmed across Central and South- Eastern Europe.

 “Survivor has long been a global television hit, but these new versions prove this format continues to have fresh and broad appeal for broadcasters worldwide," Both agreements were brokered by Samia Moktar, VP CEE & Airlines, BanijayRights, who said. "We’re excited to be working with our local broadcast and production partners across the CEE region on what are set to be exceptional adaptations of this show.”

United Media-owned Nova TV in Croatia and Nova S in Serbia will broadcast a first season of the world-famous format in late 2022. In addition, TV Markíza in Slovakia and TV Nova in the Czech Republic will air a new adaptation of the format. Acun Medya is on board as local producer for both versions.

Produced in 48 territories since its launch in 1997, "Survivor" saw one of its most successful years in 2021, with 24 productions confirmed. The show follows contestants as they are divided in two tribes and fight in daily challenges for immunity and other advantages. After each immunity challenge, one team needs to see one of their own eliminated and on the way home. Only one goes home with the big award.
