Behind the Screen: The Challenge 42: Spoiler Free

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.

Josh wants to do the Challenge still, but if Peacock has him in a chokehold for the next nine months , he's fecal outta luck.

It's only about three names for LIG2 I think would be interesting on here. But, there's people in the archives (CBS and Peacock) they should be looking at. I feel like Leo being relatively visible and Olivia being pushed heavily in the edit might mean they're willing to do more with them, but who knows.

LIG1 was only a 3 month hold so we could get josh... I just would rather NOT get josh. He was so weird talking about winning the duel was the best day of his life and hes going to tell his kids about it, and then being obsessed with andrea who clearly just used him. But the challenge loves to cast a weird clingy white dude who throws temper tantrums so we will probably get him, smh.  Maybe he will finally understand alliances since his dumbutt couldnt get it together on LI2 and whined about that too. 

I always welcome Imani but I think we may not get her on tv again Sad

When is the last time amanda made it to episode 5

Spies Lies. 2021...

In fact, Amanda's only made it to at least Episode 8 three times in her career. Invasion (Ep. 11), Final Reckoning (Ep. 13 - Lost Redemption Ep. 15) and Spies Lies (Ep. 18).

Her other finishes:

Rivals 3: Ep. 7 (After arriving Ep. 3)

Dirty 30: Ep. 1 (Lost Redemption Ep. 5)

WOTW1: Ep. 7

USA2: Ep. 4

40: Ep. 2

What a loser. Sounds like Paulie 2.0. Keep him.

Dreamdoll#277

He's like a mixture of Paulie and Hunter

Because he was in the midst of a rookie revolution and absolutely would pull it off if given another chance.

I actually didn't like Josh either but I know he "fits" on here. I'm not losing sleep over it but I could see why he would be a good pick.  Very annoying tho . 

Garbi and shockingly Kay Kay I think would be the most interesting. Kay Kay just can't get anything too physical in the sand.  

And, yeah I think Imani is done especially since I think she may still be in school. I've been wishing since we got Leo they show LI5 some love.

GoldenRing#286

I still think them calling Genevieve might mean they could be considering Josh , since there's history.

But they do a terrible job at casting people with prior relationships. Tay could've been replaced with someone from Leo's season. Jared Fields could've taken Ben's spot to put him with his ex and opp. Like it's not hard at all.

Sportsman180#287

Stinky's gf was too big of a figure her last two seasons to just be dropped. She's not Olivia or Moriah and can sustain her momentum .

She does need to break up with Dog Poo first, she's going to get complacent and boring whenever they do a season together. Preferably, DoodaButt is just no longer cast, he has nothing else to offer 

It's hilarious to me that NO ONE is clamoring for Michele's return since she got with Stinky. Because we ALL know exactly how it's gonna go: another lame, whiny number for the awful, show-killing Vacation Alliance. Nobody needs that damn alliance ever again.

WE CANNOT GO BACK.

Not Michaela finding one of Derek's burner accounts I hope he flops on 42!

Is that Tay's mom???

CosmicDiva#290

How she know it's Derek butt? I mean it most likely is since he's a coward, but yeah lolz

Sportsman180#291

I will issue a fair, but stern warning to the producers and showrunners:

If you ever cast the Vacation Alliance in enough numbers where they can take over a season ever again (and honestly, that number is probably like 5 members) and they succeed in taking over the season, ENJOY THE UNEMPLOYMENT LINE CAUSE THE SHOW'S GETTING CANCLED.

Heed my warning.

Ngl I'd love to pimpslap tf outta Derek if given the opportunity. Jk. But if I wasn't would y'all bail me outta jail? Cuz you know his pansy lil butt would be calling the cops.

Just dye your hair red and he'll thank you for slapping him.

Now that Nia's retired, I need the Ladies of Leisure to go EXTINCT.

Flopnanas#295

yall ladies switch like sissies... weren't yall hollering how amazing derek was just on 40 lol

Not me lady don't lump me into that category of hypocrisy.

Sportsman180#297

Absolutely no fan in the history of the franchise is clamoring for more DEREK.

GoldenRing#298

Derek getting praised for having a good season competitively, v. Derek being dragged for being annoying and whiny.

Comparing chickens to apples.

Dreamdoll#299

yall ladies switch like sissies... weren't yall hollering how amazing derek was just on 40 lol

A very clear difference between the two seasons

rideordie95#300

We need Queen Missy Byrd!!

GoldenRing#301

I also don't have a loyalty to these people.

I was just dragging Michaela for her stupid response to a question on IG, but I also have and will defend the fecal she's doing on the show because it's not that serious. I will switch based on what I see, idgafruitfly
