Behind the Screen: The Real World: Portland - Bondage, Butts and Burlesque

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 love Jessica's mouth. Sure she's a cusser but her insults are already classic. As with what she said to Johnny in her "promo" (we never got an official one with her) and the one with Jordan i episode 2.

Watched the premiere. It was better than San Diego and St. Thomas but it still was nowhere near as good as this show once was. With the ratings being so low I'm starting to think MTV maybe should just pull the plug after this season, it just doesn't seem fresh and fun any longer. I had a hard time distinguishing some of the ladies from one and another and I REALLY was not feeling how the guys tried to act like they were on Jersey Shore towards the end of the episode. I really do wish MTV/BMP would shy away from the partying and actually bring on people who want to do something with their lives. Hoping this season will be more Brooklyn or Boston as opposed to Vegas or Cancun. Not really sure what I think about Nia at this point but I really hope she doesn't come in acting like she's on the Bad Girls Club.

Have to say im not feeling this season after the first episode. Not really sure why but I dont particularly like anyone. Dont really dislike anyone either but just feel indifferent to them. Hopefully that changes.
This pretty much hit the nail on the head for me. None of them have very distinct personalities at all. After watching the premiere my boyfriend turned to me and said "I seriously have no clue what any of their names are or what they do for a living/etc....". At this point I literally know them as "the girl from Seattle", "the girl from Arizona" (<--My homestate! WOO HOO) and have a hard time differentiating them at times.

I have a feeling that I will very much like this season mainly because i find Johnny to be ridiculously adorable. Even when he burped it was charming. Avery is the best girl of the group (definitely better than that "hot" playboy model). Marlon is already annoying me with his lame jokes &outdated slang . Are people seriously still calling girls' butts booties?

I have to agree after rewatching the premier , Averey and Johnny are the break-outs but I also really like Joi.

When he was showing his ****, yes. And that whole black mamba dance was scary.

Just watched the premeire. I'll be the first to admit, I like Road Rule 100% more then Real World....and I haven't watched a lot of the seasons.....I'm addicted to the Challenges and watch them faithfully. This season looks really good to me. Nice to see two ladies from my home state (even if one doesn't live there anymore)! Averey is my favorite so far. She kind of reminds me of Julie a bit from the original NY...hopefully she stays the same. I look forward to this season. I also hate when people say they should cancel it....it has changed but these people actually seem pretty 'real' to me...if that doesn't sound stupid. lol. I look forward to this season and hopefully many more after it. P.S. Daisy is also a great cast member :D
