Notes on Filming

There hasn’t been that much of note regarding the filming of Survivor seasons versus when they air at some point in time. But I thought that for fun, I would spend this post mentioning when the first 40 seasons of Survivor were filmed since I have nothing else ready to be published now.

The first season was filmed from March 13, 2000 to April 20, 2000. The second season was filmed from October 23, 2000 to December 3, 2000. The third season was filmed from July 11, 2001 to August 18, 2001. The fourth season was filmed from November 12, 2001 to December 20, 2001. We are lucky that that season wasn’t cancelled due to 9/11 and it might have been delayed based on the filming dates much like the airing of the third season was delayed. The two almost go hand in hand.

The fifth season was filmed from June 10, 2002 to July 18, 2002. The sixth season was filmed from November 4, 2002 to December 12, 2002. The seventh season was filmed from June 23, 2003 to July 31, 2003. The eighth season was filmed from November 3, 2003 to December 11, 2003.

The ninth season was filmed from June 26, 2004 to August 3, 2004. The tenth season was filmed from November 1, 2004 to December 9, 2004. The eleventh season was filmed from June 27, 2005 to August 4, 2005. The twelfth season was filmed from October 31, 2005 to December 8, 2005.

The thirteenth season was filmed from June 26, 2006 to August 3, 2006. The fourteenth season was filmed from October 30, 2006 to December 7, 2006. The fifteenth season was filmed from June 25, 2007 to August 2, 2007. The sixteenth season was filmed from October 29, 2007 to December 6, 2007.

The seventeenth season was filmed from June 23, 2008 to July 31, 2008. The eighteenth season was filmed from November 1, 2008 to December 9, 2008. The nineteenth season was filmed from June 11, 2009 to July 19, 2009. The twentieth season was filmed from August 9, 2009 to September 16, 2009. This would mark the start of a new way of filming seasons for the future.

The twenty-first season was filmed from June 14, 2010 to July 22, 2010. The twenty-second season was filmed from August 16, 2010 to September 23, 2010. The twenty-third season was filmed from May 30, 2011 to July 7, 2011. The twenty-fourth season was filmed from August 1, 2011 to September 8, 2011. I bet that the editors felt better with more turnover between the fall and spring seasons now.

The twenty-fifth season was filmed from March 18, 2012 to April 25, 2012. The twenty-sixth season was filmed from May 21, 2012 to June 28, 2012. The earlier film dates were to accommodate Jeff Probst filming his talk show which he had for a season. The twenty-seventh season was filmed from May 19, 2013 to June 27, 2013. The twenty-eighth season was filmed from July 10, 2013 to August 17, 2013.

The twenty-ninth season was filmed from June 1, 2014 to July 10, 2014. The thirtieth season was filmed from August 4, 2014 to September 11, 2014. The thirty-first season was filmed from May 31, 2015 to July 8, 2015, having been filmed before what would be the thirty-second season was filmed from March 30, 2015 to May 7, 2015.

The thirty-third season was filmed from April 4, 2016 to May 12, 2016. The thirty-fourth season was filmed from June 6, 2016 to July 14, 2016. The thirty-fifth season was filmed from April 3, 2017 to May 11, 2017. The thirty-sixth season was filmed from June 5, 2017 to July 13, 2017.

The thirty-seventh season was filmed from March 29, 2018 to May 6, 2018. The thirty-eighth season was filmed from May 30, 2018 to July 7, 2018. The thirty-ninth season was filmed from March 21, 2019 to April 28, 2019. The fortieth season was filmed from May 22, 2019 to June 29, 2019.

And that’s about it for this blog post. Sorry if you found it boring in some way, but that’s about all that I felt like including. Also sorry if you want information about all of the reunion shows that happened in the seasons in regards to when they were filmed, but I also felt against including them this time around as I just wanted this done. I’ll see you sometime for the next post. I hope to get one done on an episode of this show before the month is over. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
