Behind the Screen: Survivor 49

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.

They are voting off all the bores, this is the third best new era season so far...

False. This is almost worse than 48. Ava's awfulness barely saves this from being the worst. Literally put me to sleep from the Challenge till the vote.

Its not even close to as bad as 48. Eva and joe were awful, David was awful, shahuin was awful, Mitch was awful. 48 is a bottom of the the barrel season. This is miles better.

Centimeters better*. 48 had Kyle, Kamilla, Crystal, and Mary at least. This season only has Savannah.

Better than 48.....still crap.   Rizzo and Savannah are the only thing saving this season..... and they are still a bit lame

I cannot anymore with the UNCLE JEFF

It's much better because 48 has one of the most insufferable casts ever and the most annoying ones were getting all the screen time. I like 49 because the boring and annoying people are rightfully losing and the people I like (Savannah & sohpi) are in power.

Challenge 17#246

Idk why people are surprised tho, Most of the new era sucks like 47 45 and post bhanu 46 were the only good ones. 

OS Kajun#247

What has Rizzo done that is remotely entertaining?

killakashhh#248

Another black person voted out um?

Let's be real nobody was an Alex fan

Challenge 17#250

Rizo is okay, like I don't really like him but hes a number for savannah and he's not insufferable. The male cast for this is so bad he stands out.

Savannah being the new era parvati and not giving a fecal in making the haters mad SAVES the season alone!

Clearly gave a shit and cried victim last episode. Even Parv is a lame victim now and cries sexism over every little thing.

so she's also overrated?

Right now:

47 > 46 > 45 > 42 > 43 > 49 > 41 > 44 > 48

The way savannah has the internet melting down is crazy...

Mine is same with 45 and 46 switched. 46 having DUDs like Charlie, Ben, Maria and yes... even Liz make it super deep kinda hurts it. That season needs Kenzie crushing Q at final tribal to get edge of 45. 45 was just so likeable to me.

Flopnanas#257

42 and 43 were AWFUL as well but considering the others were as well i guess something has to be higher

JustQR#258

42 and 43 were AWFUL

Which shows how bad 41 44 48 really were.

I didn't notice 49 though. I think it will probably end up being better than both

42 was fun. Drea, Hai, Omar, tori being messy, marryanne, Jonathan exposed... 

Flopnanas#259

I have 45 as my number one, followed by 46, then 47 (lot of people say its the best but its kinda overated to me.

I think the two quits, and Brandon the flop hurt ppls memories of the season as that's 3/4 dud first episodes.  Sabiyahs blindside was epic though. 

Flopnanas#261

41 gets too much hate but I dont think its that awful. Lots of other are far worse like 43, 44, 48... I would NEVER rewatch those seasons unlike 41.

Jonathan was not "exposed" for anything..... statements like this are why the new era sucks

Flopnanas#263

Jonathan was "exposed" yet the only person asked back from his entire season on 50.... hell he was the ONLY person brought back out of the entire seasons 41-44... some exposing huh lol

Him squirming at the thought of having to talk about race. He was so insecure at it is what I meant. Idk, it was satisfying to see such a giant white dude breakdown lol

Challenge 17#265

Which of the new era had the most robbed premerge contestants? Like ones you'd actually want to see brought back? Its definitely not 49 for me lol
