NBC has made it official! “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here” will air 4 nights a week during the month of June , one month before Big Brother 11 gets it start on CBS.

Here is the official description from NBC:

“I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!” is the ultimate Swiss Family Robinson, as ten celebrities are dropped into the heart of the jungle to face fun and comedic challenges designed to test their survival skills. America is the puppet master, controlling their favorite celebrities by putting them into challenges and tasks to win food, supplies and luxury items. In each episode, friendships will be tested, hilarity will ensue and viewers will decide which celebrities stay or go. The last remaining star will be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle, winning a substantial cash prize for their favorite charity. The participating celebrities will be announced at a later date. The series is produced by Granada America.

“I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!” will air Monday through Thursdays for the first three weeks beginning June 1st (8-9 p.m. ET) and during the fourth week of June, the series will be telecast Monday through Wednesday (8-9 p.m. ET) with the finale on Wednesday, June 24 (8-9 p.m. ET).

Basically “I’m a Celebrity” is a hybrid of Survivor and Big Brother International. It should be interesting how the ratings do for NBC as this will be dominating their schedule for the month of June. I’m sure if it’s successful it will come back next year against Big Brother itself!
