Format isn't bad. The cast just doesn't know how to work with it. Just like on SLA, it could've worked if they were putting people like Tracy with CT to sabotage him out, or Hughie with Tori. The formats don't be bad (ROD was), the players just don't know how to play/are being paid off not to play. 

 

 

I'm sorry but I don't watch The Challenge to watch everyone work as a team to accomplish a goal... if I did I would watch Tough As Nails

Tbh- I personally hardly even pay attention to the dailies lmao

Same but it's like 50% of the episode nowadays. Imagine a modern episode where there isn't even the intensity of rooting for a team you like to win. I couldn't care less if they succeed at getting more money lol

Dailies were always 30-50% of the episode...with the 30 minutes episodes they were probably closer to 60%

Melissa when she gets fined for an argument:

We getting fined for arguments too? Glad I barely watch this anymore 

There's no need for this to be 90 minutes

or 18 episodes.

AT ALL

if we get a michelle/emmanuel showmance storyline again...

ravyn eliminated laurel in something' endurance related. (think jenna vs tori)

From most to least impressive:

1. Big T beating Kaz (Big T was expected to lose whatever the elimination was, and beat an incredibly physically fit 2x champ)

2. Ravyn beating Laurel (Ravyn beat one of the best female competitors of all time on basically her rookie season- few points taken away for potential equalizer)

3. Big T beating Jessica (Jessica is also incredibly physically fit, however she is very small)

4. Ravyn beating Jujuy (Jujuy has never shown to be a good competitor, so not too impressive)

5. Kaycee beating Big T (Kaycee is a pro athlete and very physically strong)

6. Tori beating Melissa (Tori is physically fit, strong, and has already won this elimination before- despite Melissa being stronger than the other elimination losers, Tori had every advantage possible)

Even as Tory Karen's biggest hater you know good and well that #6 is a huge stretch lol.

i always get so bored and zone out when TJ is explaining the rules so when the daily is actually happening i have no idea what's even going on

Its not, Tori beat Jenny in that elimination. It's close between her and Kaycee tho bc Big T is easier to beat than Melissa, but Hall Brawl is easier to win due to size than Pole Wrestle.

Same. He is so bad at his job, it's crazy lol.

i predicted before she even got eliminated that she probably wouldn't beat her because tori has grown a lot in size and strength within the past couple years. melissa is scrappy but she just isn't that big so to me it isn't suprising. melissa did good in the total madness dailies and got 2nd place like 4/5 times but strength isn't her strong suit at all

remember that boring *** daily when they had to fly those drones in that cave... what were they thinking

Melissa is tall but doesn't weigh nowhere near like porky pig does

Individual shows who the best is lmao. I hate the team shit. I need an all individual season

I'm surprised this wasn't a pair season you know they love those 

The only good thing is that the 3 seasons that are about to air back to back have different formats. Instead of all of them just be pairs.

I'm so excited to see the AS4 format. The different teams/structure for dailies like Free Agents is gonna be so refreshing and then the star stealing- the producers really snapped with that format!

Can't wait for the daily where Flora gets partnered up with Brad Fiorenza ❤️

AS4 got the best format 

I like the potential and idea of this, if it was done by a competent and professional team it could play out well. The fact that there is zero reward or punishment available kills it. It lets them target the same ppl (clearly) and it just kills the excitement as a viewer. I skipped all the challenges on The Traitors if there wasn't the opportunity to get or a shield or whatever it was. However, when Kate sabatoged but (for no reason) that was iconic lol.

Don't mind most of it except the mercenaries getting 15k like im convinced at this point this is just an excuse for them to give Jordan Tori Kaycee Devin a free 15k for no reason when they already "won" recent seasons

Do they really think casuals are going to sit through 75 minutes of nothing to watch a mercenary come in at the end hear them give two lines and compete for 15?

I would love to see somebody pull a Kate in the dailies Lol

I would love to see somebody pull a Kate in the dailies

Tula would never but hopefully Melissa did.

I don't think production realizes this format would have been some of the best drama they've ever had IF they cast a better group.

30% All Stars, 30% USA players, and 40% legends and rookies would have been great.

Instead we all just wait for season 40 to save the series from going to Paramount 

Wait because I skipped over this part 

EVERYBODY is competing on the same exact team to win one challenge to add cash to the cash prize ? Please tell me I read that wrong
