Unfortunately the US version isn't available to UK residents. However after bingewatching the marterpeice that is Australian Survivorm I am mostly comparing it to that show.
To put it shortly....this is mostly garbage.
I LOVE Joel Dommett in the Masked Singer and he makes me laugh in this with his "so bad it's funny" puns but I must admit he is a bit out of place in this show. And yet he is one of my brighter points of UK Survivor.
As for the contestent, it's obvious they have no idea what they signed up for. Whining about being lied to, annoyed that they can't trust anyone. I just found myself rolling my eyes at almost all the players (especially you Lee) because they didn't seem to understand that this a a GAME and that it's supposed to be about STRATEGY and yet there is hardly any strategy in the UK version. Add where are the Idols? And please fix that cheap and nasty parchment paper! The voting is always so cringy to watch because it just looks like normal paper intentionally crumpled up repetitively to give it a tacky look. It's embarrassing to watch poor Joel try to open up and reveal the votes. If you haven't watched Australian Survivor on Amazon prime, it is much MUCH better than this. There is alot less whining and people are more likeable....even the 'villains'
