As much as I enjoyed the first season, I'm worried about this becoming a multi-season show.

It worked well as a bit of a social experiment, like the original Big Brother, and really triumphed when we had participants really want to engage with the learning for the sake of self-improvement (Jake, Dave) or self-acceptance (Tom, Emma).

As hot as it was to have a bear in the cast, the low point of the season was watching Zac try to speed run the therapy process, clearly just seeing the island as a shortcut to sex, without doing any of the work to develop and grow as a person. Imagine being so incel-ly that your licensed sex therapist requires a counsellor to speak with you both because you made her that uncomfortable.

Zac has already mentioned wanting to come back for season two, and I imagine we'll see a lot more incel-ly predators auditioning. Hopefully they've got a more robust screening process this time and have stepped up the psychological evaluations.
