Behind the Screen: My Strange Addiction

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 haven't but I'm going to try and DVR it soon. A co-worker of mine talks about it a lot...

I saw on Chelsea Lately that one woman was addicted to sleeping with her hair dryer in the bed. I was a little confused by that one...

Yeah that one was crazy one!! She actually had 3rd degree burns on her from it... She found the noise and warm soothing & couldn't sleep without it. Next week is one person who eats toe nail clippings & another who eats her couch cushions! Beyond gross!

I saw the clip of that too. That is crazy and it got me interested in watching the show, but I don't know the time or channel. I am too lazy to look for it. Eating and having an appetite inanimate obejects that have no nutrients (metal, dirt etc...) is a disease called Pica.

It's on TLC, but I can't remember the date / time. I literally almost gagged when I saw a commercial with that girl who rips her hair out and eats the hair folicles. For some reason I found that more disgusting than eating toilet paper and Comet.

Thank God this is a TV show. I thought maybe this was a spinoff of the Ketchup thread.

I wouldn't be surprised. I wish they let me name all the ketchup threads. Like "Ketchup doesn't belong on hotdogs" as opposed to "ketchup is awesome on hotdogs" or perhaps "the magic of ketchup" but if you're looking for a good show to make fun of, watch this ****.
