It would have been watchable if it's a one-time 60min program
This program reminded me that how well-constructed "Survivor" is as a TV program (although I am not a big fun of it). A fundamental problem with this series is that people never played a real role. They just completed a "task" everyday. Without a $1M reward or 15 min fame after the show, how could you make participants get serious? The producer's answer to this question was "to choose the people who really love the history".
Another problem was that the experiment's length. "6 month"! No "functioning" member of the modern society can't take that long hiatus. As a result, almost all participants are losers and weirdo. And again, there is no systematic device that made them get serious. With these two factors, the show was bound to be a failure.
