Boston Rob to host DONDI After Show
Rob Mariano is known from the reality show Survivor. He became a fan favorite rather quickly. Last year he graced our television screen as a contestant on a new reality show Deal Or No Deal Island.
Boston Rob
Some reality television fans and of course Survivor fans thought he made the first season a hit. With fans tuning in each week to see what he would do. Would he survive the week? Would he earn safety or would he face the banker?
Well it seems Rob is heading back to Deal Or No Deal Island but not as a contestant but as host of the new After Show
.
A little history of Mariano’s time on the island. He made a very close bond with Aaron in season 1. He made it all the way to the Final 4. At the competition he was assessed a three minute penalty by host Joe Manganiello.
He looked at a completed puzzle by one of the other contestants. This was done after Joe clearly informed the contestants “No looking at the others completed puzzles.” Still fans hoped to see him in the Final 3 competing for the prize pot.
At the time Rob said “I mean, it’s brutal. No shade, I definitely looked at the other player’s puzzle, and that’s it. I’m not going to sit here and make excuses.” In his defense he was used to playing Survivor where you clearly can look at the other’s puzzles.
Boston Rob has new opportunities.
In his new role on Deal Or No Deal Island , he will have the opportunity to speak to the eliminated contestants. Players like Parvati Shallow (Survivor) David Genet (Australia Survivor) and Big Brother fan favorite Dr. Will Kirby.
They will be discussing strategies; their alliances; what went wrong and who they are rooting for to win. He plans on sharing never before seen footage from the show. Let’s not forget the drama that will unfold.
At one point during the intro clip you hear him say to one eliminated player “You made some massive, I don’t want to call them mistakes, egregiously bad decisions.” Fans wonder if this eliminated player is Dr. Will Kirby.
Deal Or No Deal Island is set to premiere on January 7th 2025. The After Show will stream on Peacock. NBC YouTube channel and the NBC app on Wednesdays. Can’t get enough of Rob on your television screens he will also be on The Traitors 3.
