'Survivor' Is Coming To A Theme Park Near You

If you’re more of an attraction person rather than a roller coaster person, then you’ll be interested in some new television based theme park offerings. CBS is bringing Survivor to three theme parks this summer, so you can do your best to outlast, outwit, and outplay with a hotdog and popcorn nearby.
Starting this May, park visitors will interact with actors who play the roles of previous show contestants, while dividing the audience participants into four tribes. There will be clips from the TV show, along with a series of challenges, all in order to crown a winner. Unfortunately, unlike the American Idol attraction, winning theme park Survivor won’t get you an accelerated chance to audition for the real deal. In fact, it sounds like all you win is pat on the back.
The new show will be offered at Elitch Gardens in Denver, Frontier City in Oklahoma City, and Darien Lake Theme Park Resort in upstate New York.
The show will run about a half-hour and will carry on throughout the summer season. If Disney or Universal Studios was backing this, we’d have some really high expectations, but we’ll hold our final judgment until the reviews role in. However, if it’s anything like Fear Factor Live, its days will be numbered even before it opens.
