That might be true of other "reality" shows, but I think the opposite is true for Survivor. It used to always be models/influencers that were already half a degree from some kind of fame anyway. I much prefer the current casting on Survivor (although I do miss some of the bikinis).
Jeff sort of addressed this on this week’s podcast. He said that because of COVID, he wanted a friendlier show that families could watch so he wasn’t mean to the quitters, etc but he realized they went too far. The contestants now get less food and tools than the old school contestants. The game’s shorter but 4 days without food or decent shelter are still 4 tough days.
Jeff’s casting notes for Jess were nothing like how she was on the island. In the old Survivor model, she would have been in a bigger tribe and might have had time to settle in and be herself.
