Behind the Screen: The Future of The Challenge

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 absolutely hate the ayto people being on the show idc if they bring ratings or not, because if they bring ratings then more of those people will be on the show...
