Behind the Screen: Gauntlet 3 Reunion

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.

It's funny how Tori finds it "comical" about people getting riled up yet she was such a total spaz these past few weeks. I am predicting she'll be on the reunion and acting very non-chalant and 'un-af...

I hope Tori doesn't even make it to the top 25 of the Miss USA Pageant. That's mean of me, isn't it...

Gauntlet 3 Reunion

Bacchus ·
Has anyone heard anything about the upcoming Gauntlet III reunion show (i.e. when will it be filmed/where it is being held/who will host?) Tori and CT (new best buddies) were chatting about it on facebook, so at least it can be confirmed that there will actually be one (and it sounds to be relatively soon.) Who would have thought going into G3 that Tori would be able to generate as much fan hatred as the infamous Chris Tamburello? Crazy! She must be proud.

I hope Tori doesn't even make it to the top 25 of the Miss USA Pageant. That's mean of me, isn't it? ;) Or have they already had it? Anyway, I just hope that it's a real reunion with everyone in a room together calling each other out rather than the taped seperate interviews that they had on I3. Maybe the producers just figured that one was such a wash that it would get a halfass special. Or there's the possibility that it was filmed while G3 was actually happening in Mexico and they couldn't get everyone together.

I've always wondered how they tape the reunion shows at all. I didn't even know until reading this (and I'm assuming) that they're not live? They always APPEAR to be.

They tape them sometime after the midway point of the season. I know with Real World Sydney they went to New York to tape about a month before the last episode was to air. Usually they get to watch the entire remainder of the season (rather then each installment a few days ahead of time) so that they can respond to incidents that have not yet been shown. With Real World Hollywood slated to premiere on April 16th, my best guess would be that they will be filming the reunion at MTV studios in the next week or two. We will know when all their facebook and myspace pages tell us that they are headed to New York. That would mean 5 Gauntlet III episodes remaining, plus a reunion show being they both occupy the same Wednesday night time slot. Although, they could go to half hour G3, run it at 9 on TRW opening night and then stick them both in half hour slots in the 10 PM hour on future Wednesdays. I guess we will have to see.

It looks like the reunion is tomorrow. Eric says he is going to be in NYC for the weekend and Rachel posted on Johanna's wall saying she can't wait until Thursday to hang out.

So is Brad out of the insurance business now? Looks from his myspace like he has taken all of his information about the insurance company down and is now back to pursuing accounting. Wonder what that's about. Good luck to him.

I just re-watched the reunion and I never noticed how uncomfortable Ev looked. Was she upset because she was getting a lot of hate from the fans? Maybe she was scared of what Coral was going to do.
