Behind the Screen: The Real World: Back to New Orleans

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.

The Real World: Back to New Orleans

Considering the season is fairly recent, don't you find that weird? I have yet to see Preston, Eric, Makenzie, Jemmye, Sahar, Ashley, Ryan, Knight or Preston on a single challenge, which is too bad, because I found them to be an interesting/memorable cast. The only one I found boring was Eric, everyone else was interesting. I was hoping I'd see them on an upcoming challenge but 3 challenges have gone by since their original season and so I don't think we'll be seeing any of them again. I guess they're all 1-hit wonders, none of them had an interest in making a career out of reality TV or winning any money.

First eligible for Rivals and the team they asked declined. Knight and Jemmeye also did not do the challenge that was just filmed based on couples/exes/hook ups for obvious reasons.

Ryan Leslie and Preston should have been on Rivals

I'm sure some of them will be on the challenges eventually (as long as they keep making challenges).
SpoilerJemmye showed interest in doing a challenge, however, like what was said earlier, it was too soon for her to appear on a challenge where she'd have to work with Knight as her partner
I'm hoping we'll see Jemmye, Knight and Mckenzie on the next one. I know Mckenzie was finishing college, so maybe after that is over, she'll do one.

What are the obvious reasons? I don't think they were asked for the final casting based on tweets.

Ryan turned down Rivals making Preston invalid, Knight and Jemmye may have been called when Adam/Nany were dropped but ultimately they went with Ty/Emily. As for Cut Throat it was filmed weeks after this RW season so their livers were prob resting lol. I honestly do not see any of these guys doing challenges except maybe Jemmye and Ashlee.

Just because they are interested doesn't mean the rest of this cast are not.
