Reviewing the first episode, The Telegraph described it as "fiendishly watchable" and "smartly edited", though concluding "this felt like a backwards step. A throwback to the early days of reality TV - the likes of Castaway and Survivor - not to mention a transparent bid to cash in on Love Island's success. In Shipwrecked’s favour, at least the casting was more diverse in terms of ethnicity, sexuality and social class. And this lot also possessed more brain cells than most of ITV2’s villa-dwellers." [6]
