End of RTL's Jungle Camp Show For 2026

 Well....it turned out to  be the most controversial show of the past 20-odd years....mostly because they invited Gil Ofarim as one of the twelve.

I won't go and rehash Gil's story from 2025....but it's safe to say that probably 30-percent  of viewers were hated Gil with passion.  At lease three  of the twelve did  everything possible to  drag up the Gil-scandal.

So around 1030 last night....voting  came up for the final three, and Gil won.

Via social media....it's a shit-storm.

Gil wins 100k Euro....on top of his salary for the three weeks...around 300k Euro.  He needs the money to pay damages for the hotel/clerk he insulted, the court fees and lawyer fees.  I'm guessing half the money will go out for this cost.

Peeved a lot of viewers?  Yeah....but the viewership was probably near a all-time level, and I'm guessing RTL is searching around to find  two or three other people like Gil for the 2027 show.

All of this consuming two whole weeks....from 8:15 PM to midnight?  Yeah....they built up three shows nightly to consume the topic and get people tangled-up into the soap opera.
