Season chronology |
Survivor România 2025 or Survivor România Înapoi la origini, is the sixth season of the Pro TV incarnation of the competitive reality TV show Survivor România .
This season the format of the game changed significantly from previous seasons, as the producers decided to follow the Mexican version of the show, which is also produced by Acun Medya. The teams were renamed and given new colors: yellow and green. This is the first time in the history of Survivor România that the division of tribes did not take place before the show's premiere.
The season premiered on 3 February 2025 and concluded on 23 April 2025. The winner was 46-year-old Ovidiu „Uwe Dai” Măcinic, a judo coach from Alba Iulia, Alba. He defeated Vasile Petrovschi at the live finale and take the grand prize of €100.000 and title of Sole Survivor. Măcinic is the oldest Survivor Romania winner. Daniel Pavel returned as host. [1] [2]
Like previous seasons, this sixth season is produced by Acun Media Global. The season was first announced by Daniel Pavel at the launch of the ProTV's autumn schedule. Pavel affirmed that the producers are in the process of preparing another season of Survivor România which is set to be aired at the beginning of next year. Pavel stated in an interview, "Each season of Survivor All Stars, in essence, means starting over with completely new characters, as well as new elements of storytelling within the format’s equation. So, fans of the show should expect something truly unique and unprecedented." He also said, moreover "I would really love for us to be like the Americans or the Australians, to have two formats that reinvent the show in terms of courses, visuals, and contestants, and to bring the Survivor-loving audience—because we know how much it is loved in Romania—both sportsmanship and reality show elements, in an even cooler alchemy than ever before." [3]
Casting for this season began on September 27, 2024, and closed in November 2024. [4] [5] On 7 October 2024, Pro TV released the first trailer for the series, a forty-second teaser featuring Daniel Pavel on an island, where he exclaims: "Survivor experience is the spark that becomes a flame and stays with us forever. Survivor returns to its roots, stronger and more thrilling."
The full cast of Survivor România 2025 were introduced by Pro TV on December 13, 2024, through a spectacular promo created in a massive studio in Buftea. The story of the promo begins with the contestants aboard the ship "The Iron Will," sailing towards the island in the Dominican Republic. However, everything takes an unexpected turn when a powerful storm strikes, and the crew, led by their captain, Daniel Pavel, battles the raging waves. Eventually, the ship wrecks, and the contestants are forced to swim to a deserted island, where their Survivor România adventure becomes a reality. [6]
The filming for this season was supposed to begin in the first half of January 2025, but it was postponed due to a massive drug bust in the Bayahibe port in the Dominican Republic. Local authorities confiscated 620 packages of cocaine, and this incident led to intensified controls in the area, which affected the production team's schedule. Filming resumed a few days later. [7]
Like in season four, the first contentant was chosen by a public vote. On 15 November, it was announced on the show's social media pages that the public would decide the first castaway of the series through a competition on the show La Măruță. On November 18, the six contestants were revealed. The competition will last for 2 weeks when the six contestants had to compete in various elimination challenges. The public ultimately decided who would be the first castaways of the season. [8] [9] [10]
The Urns of Destiny are a new element introduced in the format of the show. At each Tribal Council, there will be nine identical urns — four of them containing water and five containing blood. After all contestants have cast their votes, the contestant who received the most votes from the tribe must choose one of the urns and break it. If the broken urn contains blood, the contestant nominated by the tribe will go to the Elimination Duel alongside the contestant nominated by the holder of the immunity necklace. If the broken urn contains water, the contestant nominated by the tribe will have the opportunity to choose their own opponent from the remaining contestants, except for the holder of the immunity necklace. [11]
Introduced in this season, the concept of the jury means that contestants eliminated after the merge do not leave the competition permanently but instead become members of the Jury. They will continue to attend tribal councils as observers, and in the final week, through voting, they will determine the first finalist of the competition. The second finalist will be chosen in a head-to-head duel between the two remaining contestants. [12]
The season is scheduled to start on February 3, 2025 on Pro TV and Voyo and was broadcast from Monday to Wednesday at 9:30 p.m. [13] [14]
Starting Monday, March 3rd, the show was air at 11:30 PM, from Monday to Wednesday on Pro TV, and one day in advance on Voyo. [15]
Alexia Preda was chosen by fans. [16] [17] The remaining nineteen castaways was announced by Pro TV on December 13, 2024. Notable castaways this season include the radio host, Sebastian Coțofană and the hip-hop artist, Bitză. The list of castaways also includes tempters from Insula Iubirii, a reality show on Antena 1, such as Diandra Moga, Ema Kovács and Darius Măcinic. Roxana Chiperi was a contestant on iUmor. Another notable presence is Larisa Popa, who became famous on TikTok thanks to her collaboration with a famous personality. [18] [19] [20] Darius and Ovidiu "Uwe Dai" Măcinic are the first pair of brothers to participate in the same season. [21] The players were initially divided into two tribes by gender: the all-female Zeițe and the all-male Titani. In Episode 6, the tribes were reorganized and renamed by the two winners of the Captain's Challenge: Uwe Dai and Laurențiu.
Six contestants were added later in the game. [22] [23] On Week 9, the thirteen remaining players merged into one tribe, named Lupii.

The 2025 season of Survivor România was met with high expectations but generated numerous criticisms and controversies from viewers and former contestants. The main complaints focused on declining ratings, format changes, and the perceived loss of authenticity in the show.
The season premiere attracted approximately 1.3 million viewers, but audience interest quickly dropped in the following days. For example, on February 17, the show recorded only 14.1 rating points, and in the following days, the numbers continued to decline. In response, Pro TV’s management called an emergency meeting with the production team in the Dominican Republic and decided to move the show to a later time slot. Starting March 3, Survivor România aired at 11:30 PM from Monday to Wednesday. This change sparked dissatisfaction among fans, who found the new airing time too late. [24]
A significant change was the removal of the traditional “Faimoșii” and “Războinicii” teams. Former contestant Lola Crudu harshly criticized these modifications, stating that the show had lost its authenticity and had become “a fake” and “cheap theater.” [25] Additionally, producers attempted to revamp the show by including participants from other successful reality shows, such as Mireasa, Temptation Island, and Puterea dragostei. However, this strategy did not yield the expected results, and the ratings continued to drop. Moreover, the reduced budget allocated for contestants' remuneration led to the refusal of certain celebrities to participate, which further affected the show's popularity. [26]
