Challenge Preview Specials
Why don't they do "Preview Specials" anymore for the challenges? I loved watching these in the beginning. They would show each castmember and they would talk about what they've done since their season and show clips of their season or past challenges they've done. I think the last preview special they've done was in BOTS2.
Why would you need one? It's the same cast members coming back over and over again anyway.

[quote=JustinMG;54939]Why would you need one? It's the same cast members coming back over and over again anyway.[/quote] I thought about this as well. Since Fresh Meat, I guess, there hasn't been as much a need to do preview shows since most of the people on the challenges had done one within a year or two. But preview shows have been a tradition, they could serve as an update on what some of them have been doing when they haven't doing a challenge, they introduce the cast to newer viewers, they could tie history into the fold, and they could highlight cast dynamics. It's kind of a treat to the viewers as well if done well. I know the previews haven't always done all of what I said, but I think some of these things could be used as a purpose to still continue preview shows.
