History has ordered a fourth season of unscripted series Alone, ahead of the season-three premiere Thursday at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Ten survivalists this time around will be in the Patagonia region of Argentina, striving to stay alive.
“Since season one, we knew we had a groundbreaking show. Raw, authentic and entertaining, there truly is nothing else like it on television,” Paul Cabana, executive VP and head of programming for the A+E Networks network, said in a release. “In season three, viewers will experience how our survivalists endure the challenges faced in a new, remote location at the bottom of the globe. In season four we are elevating the show to even greater heights and hope the evolution of the series will continue to captivate viewers and keep them on their toes.”
Alone is produced for History by Leftfield Pictures. David George, Shawn Witt, Zachary Green and Ryan Pender serve as executive producers for Leftfield Pictures. Zachary Behr and Russ McCarroll serve as executive producers for History. A+E Networks holds worldwide distribution rights for both the series and the format.
