The Challenge: Generic Thread

[ballinbroken]

While it may be great to some people, it's a crap shoot. With the challenge ratings being as low as they are, can they really afford to bring in a bunch of new people with no challenge experience who we haven't seen in a while? As we've all seen, a person can be one way on their RW season and completely different on the Challenges. BMP and MTV bring in the people they know will bring competition, or drama, or sex, or laughs. At this point, they're going for a sure thing versus the unknown. Can't say I blame them.

What amount of viewers/ratings are good enough for the challenges to start taking risks with casting again? If every episode this season gets as many viewers as some of the last few episodes last season, would that be considered good enough to renew the series for multiple seasons?

They need to get back up to at least a couple million before they start taking risks, in my opinion. The entire season would need to have double the viewers Rivals did.

I am fairly certain BMP knew what happened to those missing pain pills but never showed it publicly.

LMAO. But either way it doesn't matter as I still loved that season regardless. And Eric hasn't said anything about doing a challenge. And I'm not surprised Sahar said no. She seems boring anyway. As for McKenzie she'd blackout before they would even show her name here or in the opening credits. Sorry I went there but its true.

I wish Callie was on a challenge. DC was the only season I really watched. I didn't watch whatever was after. I watched some of Vegas but it got repetitive with drinking every single episode. Then San Diego was all about LGBT issues and I stopped watching after like episode 2.

I absolutely agree with the first and last part. IU loved Callie and felt that she deserved more screen time. And San Diego had a somewhat nice cast but was ruined with friggin' Zach, Franky and Ashley. Other than that I loved it.

I don't know any of those people! Haha. The first challenge I watched was Duel 2 andI don't think any of them were on that, because after Duel 2 was Fresh Meat 2, right?

Also, I wish Brittini (from Hollywood) would come back. She would be tough competition too.

LOL, yeah they werent really on Duel 2. But I guess you're new to the series. You missed some great stuff.
