A Celebrity Survivor season would be interesting to watch

Okay, so I’m not willing to let go the notion that Celebrity Survivor needs to happen. Forget the intricacies of trying to schedule three or so weeks that lines up a dozen or so celebrities together in order to compete for a bit of money amid challenges, hunger and thirst; Celebrity Big Brother has proven that the experiment can work.

Even in a rushed format, you saw the full gamut of Big Brother experiences during the first season of Celebrity Big Brother. You got players dressing up as babies as punishment; you saw players stab each other in the back; players tried their hardest and didn’t rest on their laurels. Importantly, players found different strategies to get to the end, with Mark playing a strategically under-the-radar game, Ariadna playing a strong social game, Marissa playing a strategic game and Ross playing a bit of everything, including competition beasting!

If celebrities can stay within a house for more than three weeks without social media and can play hard, I’m sure Celebrity Survivor can happen if it lasts for a few weeks. More importantly, it will be easier to force players to play, as quitting the game would mean losing your stipend and the players expecting a grueling, challenging experience.
