Behind the Screen: The Challenge: USA 2- The Treason for the Season

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 second half of this season was a drag but still like it over 37 and 38

How many times has Fessy been in hall brawl with a friend

Hauserman#66

I tuned in just to see that little woman Joshina get flung. Wish Fessy had sent him home with a few broken bones and disfigured face. :/

CyclopsBaby#67

twice

WHO decided to give Cory's beady eyed *** so much camera time?

CyclopsBaby#69

So we know they rigged it to keep Johnny safe and go with best friends have to go against each other right ?

Challenge 17#70

Honestly I hate how they went about it, but I'm down for variants of hall brawl. The sheilds are lame and the puzzle was something you literally could just guess. At least make them rerun eber time they get it wrong, then we got a show lol 

GoldenRing#71

And, honestly even if it wasn't that puzzle felt like it was there to give him a chance if he did go in.

Hauserman#72

I just wish Josh got injured badly. How sad he didn't.

The elimination caters to johnny anyway even if he did go in.

CyclopsBaby#74

Only 1 bb player made it to end lol

I fell asleep (literally) during deliberations. Why in the world did Michaela not send in Tory?

she made a promise to her the previous week I think and didn't want to go back on it. Imo probably trying to save face for future seasons

GoldenRing#77

This was boring.

Daily was trash, but at least it was over fast.

The Hall Brawl got watered down, but the end result would've been the same anyway, I just wanted a better show.

Sometimes the minority vote is the Hopper pick, but this happening when John would've had to face Fessy in Hall Brawl ... I'm watching y'all.

Cassidy earned her callback.

Ugh these people are sooo lame.

anon12423452355...#79

The Hopper would be such a fun twist if it wasn't so clearly rigged Sad

anon12423452355...#80

Making Hallbrawl this lame?...no thanks. Just get rid of it.

Challenge 17#81

Honestly she probably just wanted to project Desi and Chanelle so she gave them the best shot of winning which was against a weaker opponent. 

anon12423452355...#82

That was such a boring episode. No shock that a vet centric episode was the worst of the season. Nothing is entertaining about John and Joshelle. John entitled and hypocritical? Seen it and over it. Josh crying and being obsessed with being accepted by men? Seen it and over it.

GoldenRing#83

Honestly, I just think Micheala realized she could beat Tori in the end and said might as well just keep the girl.

Cassidy was a waste tho.

I'd respect that.

Challenge 17#85

The hallbrawl was a disappointment because you had Enzo's 45 year old *** do a normal one last season but now you're bringing the pads for an athletic cast? 

anon12423452355...#86

Do casuals even like John anymore? He is soooo boring. He literally delivers nothing. He's not even funny anymore. He's just a dry overly botoxed manchild. Retire and go away.

Challenge 17#87

The eliminations this season for the most part have been good and or creative but to end it on this one is such a let down. 

anon12423452355...#88

I regret not watching House of Villains over this.

GoldenRing#89

Considering Enzo was doing the brawling he was never really in danger.

This was very disappointing tho, but Fessy and Chanelle were always winning anyway, but like let's add some tension.

Peacekeeper22#90

Desi and Michaela made it to the final <3

Sportsman180#91

Easily the worst episode of the season. Daily was lame but fine because it felt like a throwback. Hall Brawl was awful just because of the puzzle and you could go back to TJ 100 times.

One thing I learned is these big kids don't have to be scared of Fessy for much longer. Jawsh was completely holding his ground against him. Fessy has been coasting on his big size since TM, he's starting to age out like a guy in the NFL (about to turn 32). Probably has less than 3 good years left as the top physical competitor.

Jawsh is never needed again.

Poor Cassidy, even Chris didn't have her back. Chanelle winning that lame elimination barely helps her with the casuals though, it was that terrible.
