Behind the Screen: Survivor: Worlds Apart - Holding on for Dear Life

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 Tyler being overshadowed by the returnee poll on his boot episode and his ponderosa video being taken over by Shirin. Poor guy was the definition of an afterthought for this season...

If Will gets more than a single vote at the end I'd be stunned...he's being carried to the end because he's utterly useless other than being "a vote"

Everybody from the jury (minus Shirin) said that Will wasn't nearly as bad as the edit made him to be regarding the social aspect of the game. He was actually pretty well-liked too, but he won't receive any votes unless Rodney/Dan votes for him...LOL.



Just watched the last two ponderosa videos....I can understand why almost everybody found Shirin annoying.

I haven't watched that yet but Hali is so cute with her crowns for everyone in the jury.

Half of Tyler's ponderosa video is really all about Shirin's mouth.

Thank God!
I love how no idols have been wasted.

The game play this season has been very good.  If "Second Chance" proves neither Mike or Carolyn win then Sierra has to win this season

Challenge 17#36

The game this season has been very good.  Mike or Carolyn win if either make the final.   If none of them make it I have no doubt Sierra wins.  Rodney and Will are pathetic.


Yeah I agree, the thought of Dan Will and Rodney in the final three made me sick lol.

Dan went out perfectly, I loved it.

The preview for next week was ridiculous as they're yelling at her for not sharing that she had an idol...of course she didn't...she what you just did

Rodney is just unbearable .

Sierra is definitely my person to win, now that we finally got Dan's boot episode here's what to expect next weeks episodes to be ( based off strictly previews)

5) Sierra/Mike
4) Carolyn/Will
With Rodney being in the F3.

I only watched Tribal Council, but it was lowkey the best thing that's happened all season.

What a great episode, loved every second of it.

I feel bad for the jury tho because you just know Dan will ruin any of the fun they will have.

Will isn't in any danger lol.
I'd love for Sierra to win but I feel like if Mike wins immunity she's going home. Because Mike and mama C seem close now and nobody wants to get rid of Rodney & Will because they are non factors .

Sierra can make it through next week if she win immunity, seeing how this week she got really close to winning ( so it's possible). Mike winning immunity again will be a bore honestly so I see Carolyn or potentially Sierra (if she doesn't panic) winning it. Most likely it'll be Mike

I was watching his ponderosa video and he already has, it was so sad to watch. He thinks he's some hero to be remembered.

If Dan wouldn't have used the double vote, do you think Carolyn would have played her idol?

DScott#50

I heard she said on Twitter she wouldn't have. Did anyone see her say that? 

nevidcm#51

I heard she said on Twitter she wouldn't have. Did anyone see her say that? 

It makes me even happier that he was potentially the one to screw his own game.

I know it's absolutely perfect. 

infamous#53

Like I said in Generic, I still definitely see Mike and Carolyn in the end together (although that shouldn't happen under any circumstances).

I simply refuse to believe one of them doesn't win this season. CBS wouldn't blatantly ruin the season by including the 2 best players on that thing as a proof that neither win lol.

alaskak94#54

If you watch "Dan the Day After" on youtube, he actually thinks he was a hero. How delusional can this dude get.

He wanted to prove that "heroes" can win Survivor.... like that hasn't already happened many-many times lol

And Dan is very delusional lol.

Haven't been keeping up with this season but I'm loving Mike in the finale!

He has to win the next 2 missions to win this season...he could do it but that's going to be very, very tough

kvm1977#58

I gotta say...if Mike wins this I'm not sure anyone has deserved it more from a physical standpoint.  Not a perfect game like Kim but a great game nonetheless

kvm1977#59

If Carolyn is smart she tries to sell Sierra & Rodney on taking out Will so they have the best possible people to try to beat Mike

he wins!

Mike's an idiot if he gets rid of Sierra over Rodney
