Battle of the Seasons 2012: The Most Interesting Casting Disaster in Challenge History

Challenge fans are usually split into two camps: those who hate Battle of the Seasons and those who thought it was a breath of fresh air. In fact, many of the people who didn’t enjoy watching Seasons think it was an interesting concept and would like to see the micro-team format return. This season was unique as the only time we ever saw teams of … Continue reading Battle of the Seasons 2012: The Most Interesting Casting Disaster in Challenge History

Ten People Basically Edited Out of Seasons

The second half of Total Madness saw Dee vanish from our screens. Production stated they would continue airing the season “as normal,” but clearly there has been a lot of chopping on the edit. Camila received a similar edit on Dirty Thirty after her racist tirade, receiving no confessionals. Meanwhile, other competitors have appeared on Challenges but barely got any recognition. While they never formally … Continue reading Ten People Basically Edited Out of Seasons

Ten Most Feared Challenge Rookies

Each season of The Challenge, we get some newbies thrown into the mix. Typically, we get a bunch of sacrificial lambs, but we occasionally we see newbies who intimidate the veterans. Sometimes these people live up to the expectations, other times their popcorn muscles turn them into flops. This week we saw Fessy take out Jordan, proving he’s a solid competitor. Sure, Jordan did have … Continue reading Ten Most Feared Challenge Rookies

11 Gray Zone Instances of Violence on The Challenge

On The Challenge, you punch someone and you’re gone. As we saw this week, spitting won’t get you the same punishment. In fact, The Challenge has been quite inconsistent with their acts of violence. While some instances get punished, others just get a slap on the wrist. These physical alternations fall into the gray zone. They’re clearly not acceptable, but they’re also not ground for … Continue reading 11 Gray Zone Instances of Violence on The Challenge

Leroy Garrett: One of the Best or One of the Worst?

After analyzing Danny last week, I was surprised by how many people compared him to Leroy. I know Leroy doesn’t have the best record, but I wouldn’t call him the worst. At this point in time, he’s about to embark on his eleventh season. He was the most appearances for a male who hasn’t won, but he’s only seen three finals. Of course, I omit … Continue reading Leroy Garrett: One of the Best or One of the Worst?

Ten Challengers Who We Thought Would Do Better

Every so often, we’re introduced to a newbie who seems perfect for The Challenge. Maybe they had an athletic past, seemed to be a political mastermind, or had muscles for days. Then, they got their Challenge jerseys and flopped. These are those people who may not have the ability to reach the potential I thought they had: Laterrian: On the Extreme Challenge and Battle of … Continue reading Ten Challengers Who We Thought Would Do Better

Why Wasn’t Camila Kicked Off?

After an offensive and potentially dangerous evening, we saw the most shocking Camilinator appearance yet. While Camila was forced to stay in a hotel, which I believe the first time we’ve ever seen that on a Challenge, she was able to return to the house and continue with the game. Many fans are outraged, claiming Camila’s behavior warranted her departure from the competition. In regards … Continue reading Why Wasn’t Camila Kicked Off?

Partners Who Cost Their Teammates the Game

Partner Challenges have become the norm in recent Challenge seasons, and every so often we see a person choke so badly that they end the game for their team. These are some of the people who did this, despite the fact that they may get an A for effort. On this list, I am excluding people who refused to compete or were forced to leave, … Continue reading Partners Who Cost Their Teammates the Game
