BBC cancels 'Survivor'
The BBC's revival of the reality TV show Survivor has reportedly been canceled after just one series due to poor ratings, averaging only 2.7 million viewers compared to rival ITV's I'm A Celebrity, which attracted 8.5 million. Despite a £30 million investment and efforts to refresh the format, insiders noted that audiences found the show 'boring' and it failed to connect with viewers, similar to its previous attempts in the early 2000s. Although casting for a second series was briefly considered, it has been paused, and production staff have been reassigned to other projects. Host Joel Dommett expressed hope for a potential revival, suggesting that lessons learned could improve a future iteration. The failure of Survivor in the UK is surprising given its success in over 50 other countries. The BBC has yet to make an official announcement regarding the show's future.
