Reality stars Rob Rausch and Maura Higgins will co-host ‘Get Me Out of Here’ for Peacock, bringing competitive survival to screens in 2027.
In a confirmed announcement from Variety on September 4, 2026, reality television personalities Rob Rausch and Maura Higgins are set to co-host a new survival competition series titled "Get Me Out of Here." This show aims to engage audiences with its unique format and will premiere on Peacock in 2027.
The series, produced by ITV America, transitions popular reality stars Rausch and Higgins from contestants to hosts. Rausch gained fame as the standout winner of Season 4 of “The Traitors” and was a breakout contestant on “Love Island USA.” Meanwhile, Higgins was a finalist on the British version of “Love Island” and has participated in multiple reality programs, including “Dancing With the Stars.” This new venture represents a significant evolution in their careers.
"Get Me Out of Here" will immerse celebrity participants in a dense jungle alongside a non-famous companion, creating a dynamic that tests friendships and survival skills. Teams of two will face a series of physical and psychological challenges, with the last remaining duo claiming a grand prize of $100,000. The format draws inspiration from the international show, "I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!" and puts contestants in extreme, stripped-down conditions to evaluate their ability to adapt without the comforts typically associated with celebrity status.
Each episode will challenge the competing pairs with tasks that not only test their physical limits but also scrutinize the strength of their relationships. As the official synopsis states, participants will rely on each other like never before, navigating through the intense jungle environment. Their experiences will reveal the depth of their friendships as they adapt to life without luxury, aligning well with the current trend in reality shows that focus on interpersonal dynamics under pressure.
The production team includes notable figures such as David George, David Eilenberg, and Jordana Hochman as executive producers, indicating strong creative oversight.
The hosting roles for Rausch and Higgins are likely to attract fans from their former reality shows, paving the way for a broad audience. Given the popularity of both “The Traitors” and various iterations of “Love Island,” this new show could pull in a substantial viewer base interested in seeing how their favorite personalities manage a completely different format.
Additionally, the survival competition genre has gained significant attention in recent years, suggesting a growing appetite among reality TV audiences for shows that push physical and emotional limits.
As more details about "Get Me Out of Here" emerge, its potential success could signal further opportunities for similar formats in the reality TV landscape. With Rausch and Higgins at the helm, the show has the potential not only to entertain but also to explore the complexities of celebrity relationships under duress. Fans and reality TV enthusiasts will undoubtedly be watching closely as this innovative series approaches its 2027 release.
