Satan says
When did The Challenge become a dumping ground for failed reality TV contestants from all over the planet? This new group sucks dragon ass, especially that “Bear” assclown.
This was an even dumber idea than the “Champs vs Stars” nonsense. Bring back the original Challenge format, and bring back the original Real World format, in order to recruit new talent instead of all this Big Brother & UK swill.
