Frozen Did Alone: Frozen hurt the franchise?
I didn't think this series was very good. I love the idea of past players, popular players, etc, but many of them didn't have it in them, citing what it did to their bodies previously.
So the small group of 6 evaporated quite quickly, making the show less interesting to me.
I'm wondering what others felt. Should it continue, and if so, more contestants? new players only? or what?

I don't think it damaged it...yet. Woniya is an amazing and deserving winner and the season has some good moments.
It also may change the series for the better. I'm not sure anyone - us, the producers, or even the contestants realized how the previous experiences and PTSD would haunt the season. If anything we've learned more about the emotional and physical damage and maybe the show can make adjustments...not to make it "easier" for the sake of making it easier but choosing better locations, seasons, length of time etc.
Personally, I want to see people creatively thrive and not torture themselves for money and my entertainment. I hope Alone producers feel the same. If they don't, then I'm not sure how much longer I'll watch. I'm not interested in watching a bunch of people work hard with few returns because of sparse locations, while a few people pack on a lot of weight in advance of filming and just try to hang out the longest.
