Behind the Screen: Survivor: Edge of Extinction - It Smells Like Success

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.

anyways, this episode has been garbage so far. i hate like 60% of the cast (the rest i barely even remember)

Amanda Garcia#8

Kelley is the only reason to watch so I’ll just look for her highlights on YouTube or twitter, this season seems like a flop

nevidcm#9

Wendy: we have to split up Lauren/Kelley, they’re TIGHT

also Wendy: I’m voting with Reem regardless out of loyalty

You gotta watch the best seasons before you start.

Who was voted out?

Who got played? They split the votes and got Reem out, as planned lol.

Good premiere overall, little rushed but solid for sure. Slowly warming up to the twist.. maybe.

nevidcm#15

It's still **** this twist for me, but the way they revealed it at the end was SO good

Bacchus#16

On the upside, Reem is out. On the downside, Reem is not out.

PinkRose#17

It was a good episode? Should I bother watching?

I want to watch over Kelley but idk

Almost villainous. She’s always been the hero and tonight was different but over the top Reem brought that on.

The Kelley-Lauren duo though is everything.

Its possible. Before the game started, Lauren said in interviews that Wentworth was her favorite player. Lauren was a college soccer player, she knows the game, and she’s already sidekick to Wentworth. They could be a force.

Ya know you can like someone without them being a hero

The episode was eh. I hope the returnees get voted out in an embarrassingly fashion. 

I like Keith and was impressed he was able to know that the well situation was bad and needed to distance himself from Reem and Wendy.

nevidcm#28

i realized how much i actually liked her as she was walking ouy of TC. ROBBED

yeah the only reason she got that edit on Cambodia was because she was the underdog but i’m not surprised in the slightest about her edit this time around

nevidcm#30

i’m really excited for Kelley this season. I feel like every season we get a different version of her, unlike with Joe/Aubry which come off as really one-dimensional. 

Chicken_breast#31

Ron is so annoying. Ugh gotta have that one annoying guy.
