Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Unpopular Opinions

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

I liked Dave Mirra as a host. Maybe I was just young, but I liked him...

I thought Ace did very well on The Gauntlet 2.

Devyn is not funny at all. She rehearsed her commentary but it still isn't entertaining

The only good Thing about the competition nowadays is the elimination rounds.

Yeah. I hate the fact that Road Rules got Canceled. It really was the better show of the two. I still miss it to this day. I really want to see Dan(Viewer's Revenge) back on this show.
Like in his case, they stopped asking him simply because he stopped drinking, therefore he wasn't "entertaining" enough. Very telling...

I'd like production to put more emphasis on the competition and goofy interactions rather than the drunken fights.
Challenge 17#105
I enjoy watching rookies go in Frist and I miss that.

Johanna has always been a huge ***** and is extremely full of herself. Despite being absolutely crazy, Tonya is a top competitor physically and mentally. Nany, Rachel R., Abram, Leroy, Theresa, Jonna and Brad are overrated as all hell. Tyrie is underrated. I would be happy if I never saw Diem on a challenge again. I secretly wish they'd bring back Casey.

I find Knight hilarious! I'll never understand the hate he gets on here.

TJ Lavin is a great host and more than just a production puppet
Yes. I am pro TJ Lavin. I appreciate that he actually gives a ****. Also anyone who hated on him during Rivals 1 - Exes is a ********. The man had internal bleeding in his noggin...you try to read cue cards a month after that and tell me how you do.

I would also like to see Casey come back even though she is like the opposite of what I like to see on the challenges.

I liked Karamo
Dkristoff#111
I actually liked katelynn and I think that she's better than Casey or Brooke or Naomi maybe even mandi
anon4981298798#112
Jenn and Nany are the most overrated in terms of appearance.
JL81790#113
Dan Walsh is funnier sober and he should be back every challenge. Robin is not attractive at all. Especially pre Duel.
GraffitiSoul#114
I think Tyrie has never had a proper chance to really prove what he can do.
Dash_Vegas#115
Not at all a fan of Susie, don't get her appeal at all. Robb's my RW man crush, probably best looking on the series.

Team cancun on bots2 was weak, if jonna didn't **** zach that team would have been gone at the start
GraffitiSoul#118
Brad is also terrible & plays that "good guy" role very well.
MTV Junky#119
Mandi is actually a decent competitor, probably at least on par with Jonna if not better.
Debut Album#120
I've always liked Dan(Northern Trail) and despite him not doing that many challenges he's one of my favorite castmembers. I like how he hugged Derrick and was sad that he was leaving. That was touching to me.
