If you’re reading my blog, you know Johnny Bananas. With more Challenge seasons under his belt than anyone else, his record is full of really high highs and really low lows. Regardless of whether you love him or hate him, you have to admit his name is basically synonymous with The Challenge. After 19 seasons…
Another week that proves the more Challenge experience you have, the worse you’ll do. 1. Sand Dooms This week’s challenge comes straight out of an action movie. In Doom Buggy, Challengers must traverse a string of ten tires as quickly as possible, releasing the tires as they pass over them. Of course, the tires are being…
Now that the pairing are official, it’s time to rank all sixteen teams. Some teams appear to be stacked while others will have to rely on non-conventional ways to win. I am going to rank teams based on: the Impending Dune challenge, first impression videos, the Basic Training special, and of course prior Challenge seasons. Keep…
Like I’ve done with prior seasons, I am going to be taking a look at stats for the players on War of the Worlds. For this list, I can only really look at the “Veterans” who have a prior history on The Challenge. While some of the newcomers have competed on competitive shows, others have…
MTV loves to remind us that Dirty Thirty, Vendettas, and Final Reckoning are a trilogy. Though most of the connections between the three seasons seem forced, fans have accepted these three seasons as a cohesive unit. For this reason, I am going to be ranking every single cast member from these shows. My rankings will…
No Bananas. No CT. No Zach. Now Leroy’s gone. This season is going to test how necessary all of these vets are. Episode 6 was viewed by 841,000 people and received a rating of 0.52 in the 18-49 demographic. This is a tick upward from last week. Either Wes can carry a show all on…
People seem to forget that Shaleen is on this season, but there’s lurking feud between her and Dee that didn’t make it to air. Luckily, some dedicated Shaleen fans the the power of the Internet have brought this drama to the surface. It all started with this picture from a preview. Clearly the drama was…
There is a lot of juicy information on War of the Worlds that hasn’t made it to air. Some of it may be airing later, but I’m guessing we won’t see most of it. In fact, rumor has it, MTV has been trying to get some cast members to stop talking about unaired footage (such…
We’re five weeks into the game and we’ve already lost Ashley, Bananas, CT, and Zach. Clearly, War of the Worlds is not our typical Challenge season and the veterans aren’t going to skate through it easily. Someone has to win this game, but the final isn’t going to include some Challenge mainstays. So, who really…
First Bananas leaves, then CT. Are people still tuning in? Episode 5 was viewed by 839,000 people and received a rating of 0.50 in the 18-49 demographic. So the ratings went down a little, not much and not to a season low. Now, we’re going into the next episode without Zach. Somehow I don’t think…
A new episode. I’d be very scared if I were a veteran. 1. Getting Tired This week’s challenge is endurance based and it’s called Tired Out. The goal is to run back and fourth across the desert and retrieve tires in a specific order. One at a time, each time viewing a key to retrieve…
This season seems to have a few incidents that have been left on the cutting room floor. I recently controversy known as Glitter Gate, but this time we’re talking about the wrapping scandal.This incident involves Amanda and our sourced have very different views of Amanda. Source 1 is Cara Maria and source 2 is Da’Vonne.…
