Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Vets and New Threats - Jonna Mannion

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.

Jonna was in the same age range as the people she ran against on AS3. AS 2 tho you can argue her win has an asterisk...

Her joining this season late really hurt her--then she aligned with Derek with didn't help either

It's something more. Something happened around WC and continued on USA2 where she became a paranoid, skittish mess that no one wants to work with. It's absolutely bizarre.

She is not that great.  She won both AS because she was one of the youngest there.  Also Darrell and Janel should have won

Yeah...I think you're right. Clearly something happened with her and MJ and Jonna was going through marital problems at the time. That fecal blew up and Jonna hasn't acted the same since. 

I also don't think this show is good for her mental health. Jonna is not the type of person that thrives in this environment. There's a reason she burned bright and burned out just as quick on her OG flagship run. She did 21, 23, 24, 25, and 26...then poof. 5 seasons in less than 5 years.

The past 5 years? 

AS1, AS2, AS3, WC, USA2, 40, AS5, 41.

EIGHT SEASONS IN FIVE YEARS.

The most out of ANYONE in The Challenge in the past 5 years.

She's completely cooked mentally. She needs a break and a long vacation.

I was wondering why I was tired of seeing jonna even if she's gone home early several times.

Would have enjoyed her and grant taking WC.

I hope jonna lights Olivia's butt up at the reunion but she's forgiving so probably not

But we cannot LIE she's done pretty much every season since she returned and most people are bored of her again.
