Since there was a discussion on how IAC is the exact same format year after year and how it's become stale in another thread, here's a thread for you to discuss what you would do to shake up the show.

Mine:
-Lower number of celebs on launch for the next thing-
-4 or 6 celebrities could enter later on - perhaps in small groups of 1 or 2 or all together to freshen up the show after the first week or so.
-Have more regular evictions, perhaps not save them all until the last week and a half, maybe have an eviction every four or five days until it's necessary to get everyone out to keep the show more exciting.
- No split camps on launch - tired.
- A live bush tucker trial every week to keep it more exciting.

Make the person who did the trial the night before immune from the next one

[Pete.]

For the love of god, add more Survivor elements ie. no public vote until final 6 or so and then add the votelines to win, evicting someone every day in the run-up to the final. This could lead to the inclusion of immunity challenges quite easily

[Headie]

I just want an All Stars series tbh. It's long overdue.

The female cast would need to include Sinitta, Helen Flanagan, Gillian McKeith, Janice Dickinson, Kim Woodburn, Katie Price and Kendra Wilkinson tbh

[JoshBB]

Having new things in the eating trials.. they seem to bring back the same stuff every year.

[Cal.]

I think they should save All Stars for the final series.

[Kazanne]

Wrestling with Crocodiles and swimming with sharks would be interesting.

- No split camps and the beginning trial of parachute diving and walking to camp (it's become stale and boring)
- Throw a twist like halfway through the series like a fake elimination with a secret camp sort of like BB secret room twists but the difference is they've never had one
- Have evictions earlier on instead of having one every day make it one every three days or something after the first week

[LeatherTrumpet]

cancel it as its genuine grade a sh1t

[karl100589]

Scrap it and do Survivor or The Amazing Race.

Do an All Stars series, there is a huge back catalogue of amazing contestants on this show that could be utilised to produce three stellar weeks of a reality show that would garner huge press attention and ratings. I really don't know why they haven't done it yet.

Instead in recent years we're subjected to a few good celebrities that make the show for the first half doing all the Bushtucker Trials only for them to leave mid-way through and some ****ing irrelevant bore walks away with the crown. Honestly, I genuinely struggle to name the winners of IAC over the last five years or so...they all blend into one invisible, pointless ****ing waste of a fee, and leave you feeling like you've wasted three weeks watching this for nothing.

Everything is so repetitive, the only reason I really like and watch I'm A Celebrity anymore is for Ant and Dec's links which continue to be amazing.

Yeah, an All Stars series is well overdue

I like this idea but don't think that a 'watch the live stream of the main camp' would work with this show. Perhaps they could incorporate it in some way that the main camp are given a map and have to navigate their way to the secret camp or something in a time frame and if they don't then the people in the secret camp are eliminated for real or something idk?

[Cal.]

They could actually do so much with it. They could quite easily rehash every single good BB twist over the years and the public would lap it up they don't even need to be creative to make the show good.

[Jack_]

They've stolen more than enough from Big Brother over the years (and now, sadly, BB seem to be doing the same with the 'eat something disgusting' tasks) so they may as well try something a bit more left field and innovative.

Pretty much what everyone else has mentioned so far, but maybe some live streaming online? The Australian version had an hour stream online after each episode called 'The Fallout Zone' which could be interesting:

In addition to the television broadcast a live feed from the camp site airs for an hour after the AEDT airing of the show on Ten's website and mobile app, titled The Fallout Zone but more commonly referred to as FOZ. The content of feed is available on the website after the fact so viewers in other states may watch the show after their airing of the main show. The feed is hosted by comedian Sam Mac and producer Ciaran "The Butcher" Flannery, also known as "The C-Word". On 8 March and March 12, 2015, producer Dominic "The Domin8or" Sullivan filled in during Flannery's absence. The duo interact with viewers through Twitter, using the hashtag #FOZ.

They also had free Twitter voting which more shows need over here imo.

Cancel it.

Axe overrated Ant and Dec

They are honestly the only reason why this show is so successful, and continues to be. Everybody on here acknowledges the format is stale, and I'm pretty sure a lot of the casual viewers do too, but it is Ant and Dec that draw the audiences in. Get rid of them and this show collapses.

Takeaway is their best vehicle but their links on this show are second to none and are easily the best thing about it.

I'd like to see them change the location for a series at least

Maybe so, its another reason for me not to watch because i'm bored of them now, BGT/Brit Awards is also bad enough with them hosting.. Take away is okay tbh.

maybe add a few non-celebrities

A non-celebrity version sounds like a good idea, I wanted to do it before but I love my food so nope

I know people always say Ant and Dec are overexposed and I used to agree but I really don't anymore

Takeaway starts at the end of February and BGT finishes at the start of June, they then don't return for five months until November when they do three weeks of IAC and one night of Text Santa a few weeks later. It's really not that much at all compared to the days when they were doing stuff like PokerFace and Red or Black? as well.
