The latest season of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! has been a breath of fresh air, bringing a sense of warmth and togetherness to our screens that we all needed. With the cold weather and emotional toll of the holiday season, many of us have been in need of some comfort and cozy TV watching. And with all the recent turmoil in the British TV industry, it's been a relief to have a show that champions love and unity instead of adding to the chaos.
In the past, drama was often seen as a necessary ingredient for creating popular TV shows. Take The X Factor, for example, where viewers were entertained by the humiliation of hopeful singers and the snarky comments from the judges. And when it was announced that controversial politicians Matt Hancock and Nigel Farage would be joining the cast of I’m A Celebrity in 2022 and 2023, it was clear that the network was hoping for some scandal and controversy.
But the backlash from fans and the petitions to remove them from the show spoke volumes about what viewers really wanted. And when the 2024 season was announced without any politicians in the lineup, it was a sign of hope for a more positive atmosphere in the camp.
Of course, this wasn't the only reason why the latest season of I’m A Celebrity was a success. The lineup was filled with beloved stars like Maura Higgins, Danny Jones, Oti Mabuse, and Coleen Rooney, making it a recipe for TV magic. And it certainly delivered.
Each celebrity brought their own unique charm to the camp, and they bonded with each other in a way that was heartwarming to watch. From Danny finding a father figure in boxing legend Barry McGuigan to Oti opening up about her struggles with postnatal depression, the conversations and connections formed in the jungle were truly special.
Sure, there were some minor disagreements, but that's to be expected when a group of people are forced to live together in less-than-ideal conditions. Overall, the 2024 season of I’m A Celebrity was a three-week escape from reality that we all needed. It showed that TV can be wholesome and still bring in huge viewing figures without relying on drama and conflict.
And this sentiment was shared by fans all over the world. Many took to social media to express their appreciation for the show's positive and uplifting nature. Some even said that it has set a high standard for reality TV and they will no longer watch toxic shows.
With almost eight million viewers tuning in to watch Danny be crowned the new King of the Jungle, it's clear that the overwhelmingly positive response to this season has set the bar high for future seasons to come. Let's hope that other shows will take note and follow in the footsteps of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in promoting love and togetherness over needless drama and division.
So let's all take a moment to appreciate the heartwarming and wholesome escape that I’m A Celebrity has provided us with. And if you haven't watched it yet, be sure to check it out on ITVX. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
