Redneck Island is a reality-competition series hosted by Steve Austin on Country Music Television. The show premiered on June 9, 2012, and its fourth season premiered on December 4, 2014 and concluded on February 13, 2015. The 5th season premiered on January 28, 2016.
Redneck Island strands a group of contestants, stereotyped as "rednecks", on a deserted island and they compete for food and immunity. Players compete in two teams each week, with the losing group voting one of their players out with a "beer ballot." The production of Redneck Island took place throughout May in San Francisco, Nayarit, Mexico.
In season 4, the format of the show changed. Jessie James Decker was introduced as a co-host. The location was changed to a lake house, and the group was divided into teams of one man and one woman each. The teammates were forced to live together. In each challenge, the losing team was automatically sent to the Pit. The winning team chose the second team to enter the Pit. At the Pit, the teams were split into individual men and women so that the losing man and woman from the various physical challenges was eliminated, with the winning man and woman combining back into a team.
Melissa Rycroft succeeded Decker as co-host for the fifth season, scheduled to premiere January 28, 2016.
^Note 1 : Before the challenge, J.P. left the competition due to illness. After winning the challenge, Adam S. was evacuated out of the competition due to injuries.
^Note 2 : Due to the blue team having a low number of people, the orange team voted Jeannie to be sent over on the other team.
^Note 3 : The team were dissolved. Challenge for individual immunity.
^Note 4 : Neither Lindsey or Cody chose Amnesty to be on their team, thus resulting in her elimination.
