Comment on Australian film and TV industry calling on content quotas to revitalise struggling local scene
maniacalmanicmania@aussie.zone 2 days agoHow does Alone differ to Survivor? I think I know the basics of survivor from seeing a couple of episodes when it first started. I don’t know anything about Alone. Your comment makes it sound more like a documentary but I gather it’s still also a competition?

Each contestant is on their own. They place cameras themselves to record their activities. The goal is to be the last one remaining.
They get to bring a limited amount of equipment and supplies with them, there is no way for them to get anything additional.
They each have a satellite phone they can use to call for rescue or to notify the organisers that they would like to leave.
The winner will be told when they’re the last one remaining, they have no way of knowing how many are left at any point otherwise.
That’s the show, it’s extremely good.

Your description makes the show sound a lot more interesting than the show’s advertising does.
