Expeditie Robinson is a popular reality television program in the Netherlands and Flanders (Belgium) that debuted in 2000 and based on a format first shown by Swedish television in 1997.
The format, most notable under the title Survivor, has since then also been produced in many other countries.
The name of the show alludes to Robinson Crusoe, a story featuring people marooned by shipwreck.
In most seasons, sixteen contestants are put into a survival situation and compete in a variety of physical challenges.
At the end of each show, one contestant is eliminated by the other teams in a secret "Island Council" ballot.
