Seuls en mer : le radeau de la discorde

This show is just sort of baffling. They took an interesting concept and completely ruined it by over dramatizing every single little thing. I'm not sure how much is scripted or how much people were coached but every single person (except Summer) is completely unlikable. The cast pretends like they're all so invested in this "experiment" and how they want to reach the finish line together as a team. They say all these positive things when the reality is they're the most self-righteous and self centered people you can find. The women are the absolute worst, they constantly find any reason to be offended and resort to group bullying every single episode while pretending they're actually the victims.

And this all takes place in less than 3 weeks time, which really isn't that long of a period of time. The people are all just so ridiculously fake and shallow, the challenges are lame, the constant swapping of contestants is too frequent and takes up the bulk of the show. It's over dramatic shallow trash at the end of the day only good for a hate watch. Summer is gorgeous so I gave it an extra point.

I thought I would be alone in coming on here to give this show a not so positive review, but I do join the other reviews and just like the heading, say it was a great idea, but horribly produced.

I admit I have been watching the show in its entirety from start to finish and I don't mind some of the things other people are saying, because these game shows are ALL ABOUT politics and saving oneself via alliances and schemes (think back to Richard on Season 1 of Survivor, the original alliance guy). However, this show is ran by the producers, because each episode builds on how the contestants are steadfast in what they will do at the end of the episode, only to find that we as an audience have been dooped, and they were all in agreement the whole time. Like it was going to be some super clever plot twist that we didn't see coming. BUT it is in Every. Single. Episode.

The concept is a decent one.

I honestly do not know why there's all these references to the 1973 INTERNATIONAL crew. This is a crew of Americans, clearly. And it's not 1973. The continuous references to 1973 are pretty meaningless and ill-placed. If this were a more international crew, and the goal wasn't a competition for money, then perhaps.. but that's a different show.

They may have gathered a collection of people with polarizing opinions.. but that sure is not visible in the episodes. All the episodes show is pretty much how Russell decides things need to be, and all the others are afraid to contradict him. That single casting has made the series pretty pathetic.

Merely because Russell isn't afraid to have his opinion heard.. everyone else just shuts up and lets him decide their fate. The problem with this series is the lack of a backbone by everyone other than Russell. No one wants to "make waves,"

Russell decided they'd "stick with the initial group." Russell decided to nominate himself to prevent a vote off.

Russell decided when a swap was permissible ('cuz Summer is cute).

Russell decided when it was okay to vote someone off.

Russell decided when it was okay to take a temptation.

Every contestant appears to be scared to speak up and make their voice, or opinion, known about others. With the ONLY exception being the vegan speaking up about fishing...

"Cancel culture" seems to have made it a very precarious thing to merely state you don't like someone. It inevitably leads to others casting aspersions regarding racism, or homophobia, etc., even though none of that may be at play.

I would point out NOT voting someone off due to their ethnic background is as much racism as voting them off.

To be honest the "competitions" should have forced the contestants into more team-oriented opinion-based challenges to spur on debate rather than the physical challenges that had little to do with their wide range of viewpoints.

There's VERY LITTLE in the episodes that leads to any sort of topical debate. It's not a "social experiment" as must as it is a simple game show like all others... shut up and play along to get to the money.

Very good idea and I was really excited to watch it. It started off really bad with the pick of contestants and then the whole thing at the market really annoyed me. The Liberal women had the money and only bought veg and instead of buying meats and protein (needed for survival) they had a lot of money left over that they had to hand back to the host.

Another show attacking white males while saying we don't understand prejudice. It makes no sense

I did pull through and finish the episode (1 hour 23 minutes) and it just got worse. To the end they started doing tasks but for me it was too late I will not watch another episode.

If you like white males being attacked then this is for you.

Not a survival show. Not even an experiment.

Whoever gets upset the most, gets their way. It's like the OG cast is trying to lose and not make money. Don't waste your time on this weird and frustrating show.

I'm surprised it's at 5 stars and not lower. Most of the other reviews seem to agree with me. I can't see this coming back for another season.

At this point I'm cheering for those who want to sabatoge the group because they deserve it.

It's like the producers found the worst people from each political groups and put them on the raft then bring in rational and competitive people who try to get on the raft but the OG doesn't want to win.
