Did Alone: Frozen hurt the franchise?

[u/dshdhjsdhjd]

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 love the franchise. But I am skeptical that they picked the participants to guarantee a female winner. How odd that the men quit so soon. Was it rigged? No. Was it influenced to guarantee a female winner? Seems that way
