Behind the Screen: PyeongChang: 2018 - Olympic Winter Games

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 was totally enjoying SUI vs USA curling on NBC only to accidentally come upon the final score while browsing twitter...

That's 2 now. Time for the IOC to actually put their foot down and ban all Russian athletes for the next Olympics.

I agree. 

Seriously, a guy was caught doping in curling? What's next, doping for bowling? The Russians have no shame.

I followed this Olympics less than any Olympics in the past. While there where a few compelling storylines, for the most part I just wasn't interested. I'm not surprised NBC saw the worst ratings in 20 years. Team USA just wasn't that exciting (beyond women's hockey).
