THC just had a promo for a show hosted by Survivor Hunter Ellis. I never hear of the other former contestants (except for Rich, who was busted for tax fraud, and RomBer, who were contestants on The Amazing Race). Would it be fair to say that Ellis has made the most of his Survivor appearances of any of the others?
Boston Rob was part of “Sci Fi Investigates” team. (on, you guessed it, the Sci Fi Channel)
Colby Donaldson did some commercials for jeans and razors. Jerri Manthey did a season of The Surreal Life. Several of the players worked together on the movie The Scorned - a horror movie whose gimmick was that most of the cast and crew were former reality show players.
Colby also had a short-term recurring role on Joey. He played the rival co-star on the ski patrol show Joey was working on. Haven’t seen him in anything recently though… Safe to say no one has gone exactly gangbusters in the post-Survivor success department.
Except that Hunter Ellis was outed on Survivor very early. The others either won or lasted a long while, IIRC. My bet is that he has made the most out of his limited time on the show.
