About The Challenge (TV series) in brief
The Challenge is a reality competition show on MTV that is spun off from two of the network’s reality shows, The Real World and Road Rules. Originally featuring alumni from these two shows, casting for The Challenge has slowly expanded to include contestants from other MTV franchises including Are You the One?, Ex on the Beach, Geordie Shore and from other non-MTV shows. The contestants compete against one another in various extreme challenges to avoid elimination. The winners of the final challenge win the competition and share a large cash prize. The Challenge is currently hosted by T. J. Lavin. The show was originally titled Road Rules: All Stars. It was renamed Real WorldRoad Rules Challenge for the 2nd season, then later abridged to simply The Challenge by the show’s 19th season. Since the fourth season, each season has supplied the show with a unique subtitle, such as Rivals. Each season consists of a format and theme whereby the subtitle is derived. The show’s current season, Double Agents, premiered on December 9, 2020. The challenge casts are season specific as the cast varies from season to season. A season’s typical multitude of cast members are usually divided up into separate teams or pairs according to a certain criteria.
The criteria that teams have been arranged by over the show’s history have ranged, from gender, a contestants original show, heroicvillainous status and ex-romantic partners of contestants. In elimination rounds, they must compete in numerous missions in order to win prizes and advance in the overall game. Except for season one, a monetary prize has always been the award for winning the final mission. Some seasons, however, have used entirely different formats from the typical: The Island is one Challenge in particular that adopted many features like that of another reality television game show Survivor. In the next season, two six-member teams were sent around the world in a head-to-head competition to see which teams could see which could best the other in a competition. The series initially used no hosts but instead a former cast member who had been kicked off his or her season. After one season without anyone in this role, the series began using hosts: Eric Nies and Mark Long co-hosted a season, and Jonny Moseley and Dave Mirra hosted various seasons.
