The incident sparked a controversial chain of events, causing producers to break the fourth wall and issue a statement addressing the situation.
A #MeToo moment struck “Survivor” Wednesday night when multiple female contestants accused Hollywood talent manager and fellow castaway Dan Spilo of touching them inappropriately on the island.
“In the episode broadcast last night, several female castaways discussed the behavior of a male castaway that made them uncomfortable,” CBS and MGM said in a statement provided to The Times on Thursday. “During the filming of this episode, producers spoke off-camera to all the contestants still in the game, both as a group and individually, to hear any concerns and advise about appropriate boundaries. A formal warning was also given to the male castaway in question.
In the episode, corroborating footage of Spilo at camp appeared on screen as the women described his behavior. Eventually they sought protection from an older female player, Janet Carbin, who had a good relationship with Spilo. Upon hearing her tribe-mates’ stories, Carbin promised Kim to confront Spilo if she witnessed the inappropriate behavior herself.
