Expedition Robinson 1998, was the second edition of Expedition Robinson, or Survivor as it is referred to in some countries, to air in Sweden and it aired in 1998. A major twist this season was that when a tribe lost an immunity challenge, the other tribe would vote out one of their members. Another twist was that of the 'joker', Jochen Schützdeller, who entered the game when the tribes merged. Along with the twists, this season was the first to include an alliance (The Girl Mafia), which would later go on to be a constant factor in later seasons. In the end, it was Alexandra Zazzi who won the season with a 7-2 jury vote over Birgitta Åberg. This season was much more successful than the premiere season, garnering over two million viewers per episode in later parts of the season.
