I Survived... is a documentary television series produced by NHNZ that airs on Lifetime Movie Network. The series premiered on March 24, 2008 and in the past has aired new episodes Sunday nights. The show currently airs on Friday evenings at 8 PM Eastern Time followed by sister series I Survived... and Back (in which people share their near death experiences). The show allows survivors to explain – in their own words – how they overcame life-threatening circumstances without dramatic reenactments. Most episodes feature three separate stories involving kidnapping or getting stranded in a remote location; however, some only feature two.

The official website states:

"What would you do if you were confronted with death? What gives someone the strength to survive? Is it luck, chance, instinct? In a stripped-down, simple-yet-cinematic interview style, I Survived... allows survivors to explain – in their own words – how they overcame unbelievable circumstances—offering insight into what got them through the experience that changed their lives forever. I Survived... is storytelling at its most dramatic, most basic and most honest."[1]
