Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Vets & New Threats - Ratings

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.

Lol I'm not bothered, and it's effortless. I think your attempts to be a contrarian to meet your need to cosplay as a lawyer is hilarious...

I didn't disagree with the opinion it should be streamed on Paramount.  Your obsession with me is the problem.  Not sure why reading what is written remains a challenge for you

i never want to defend kvm, but if i didn't have cable & really wanted to watch 41 i probably would buy that season pass.

i think some fans would (and do) buy the season pass, but many definitely do not

Nobody is paying extra money to specifically watch this show gramps. 

You don't believe anyone buys "a single season" of shows?   Weird.   And wrong.

lol I still buy seasons every now and then of things, I own multiple Challenge Seasons, mainly earlier ones but I have bought them. 

Which isn't shocking nor are you alone.  I apparently bought Duel 2 at some point because I have the Adam-CT fight that people state is missing.

yeah I have Duel 2 and I have the Ruins fully intact as well. I think the last season I bought was dirty 30. I have both duels, ruins, dirty 30, gauntlet 2&3, the island (ugh), exes 1, rivals 1, cutthroat, & fresh meat 2. Also All Stars 1. 

I also have battles of seasons 1-inferno 2 on bootleg dvds that I bought that I'm proud to say I made some awesome dvd cases for back in the day lol I'm tempted to buy the og inferno, fresh meat, and inferno 3 but haven't.

I'd rather never watch a season again and just catch up through social media than pay a cent for this show. The fact that they make it so difficult to watch episodes not live makes me want to pay even less. Fruit fly them for that.

That's fair but not everyone shares that opinion.   If I didn't have cable I'd buy it just like others here said they would.   I think we all agree it should be on Paramount and MTV should air the epsidoes more often than they do. 

GoldenRing#159

The people on here saying they'd pay or have are longtime, more involved fans.

The casual viewer or the curious viewer isn't going to do that. That's not sustainable to attract and keep viewers. Idk why he always has to argue the point when we say it should be on Paramount the next day. If someone wants to buy the season, they will regardless.

Simply stated there are options...I dont believe they're trying to attract new viewers...do you?  If so...what are they doing that indicates that?

Just stop feeding him. They suck. It should be on Paraflop. Move on.

Which I agreed with before I even said that episode 0 was on YouTube but you needed attention and started an argument. Now you're running because you don't have a point (yet again] and don't like others discussing things without you controlling it. 

OS Kajun#163

Lol.

I heard paramount lost a significant amount of subscribers recently

You banging the paramount tv executives? Let em know I want all seasons 1-10 of the challenge, the real world, Road Rules, and all of Wentworth to be added to their collection. Then maybe I'll consider subscribing (or finding a side piece that has a subscription already).

If i said nobody wants Josh to host the show instead of tj, would you think i thought he had zero fans? Or would you understand the number of people who do want that is small and insignificant so people say nobody instead? Basically nobody is paying for this show specifically. 

To answer your question, he would be absolutely literal. 

UKLover1#169

I've bought the season on Amazon since they stopped the free link on MTV.com. But I'm like .05% of the fan base. If any other show that I'm not as invested in like BB or Traitors wasn't available on a streaming service, I would never even think about it again.

episode 2: 252k and 0.10

total viewership is up from last week and demo remains strong 

BBSurvivor123#171

ep 0 - 198k and 0.07 demo

ep 1 - 243k and 0.10 demo

ep 2 - 252k and 0.10 demo

Flopnanas#172

a whopping 9k increase... i guess any win is a win at this point.

Flopnanas#173

to compare:

challenge 39 episode 2- 310k

challenge 40 episode 2- 470k

BBSurvivor123#174

honestly compared to s39 it's not even bad. cable continues to go down every year, so the fact it's only 58k down from two years ago isn't bad. demo is also more important than total #

its also up on All Stars 5's ep 2

OS Kajun#175

It should have had 2 million! It was such a good episode!

Flopnanas#176

I have faith it will go up over 300k for next week as this episode was one of the best inawhile. It took me back to the good old days with will's iconicness!

No one knows it was good cause there's nowhere to watch it...besides paying $23 on Amazon Prime.

If I didn't spend 15 years terrorizing this place Vevmo would be DEAD and then you'd have nowhere to fat shame women and switch up your personality 7x a day. So show your respects LADY!
