The Challenge (originally Road Rules All Stars, followed by Real World/Road Rules Challenge) is a reality television game show on MTV that is both dependent on and spun off from the network's two flagship reality shows, The Real World and the now cancelled series, Road Rules. It is currently hosted by T. J. Lavin.
The title of the show was originally Road Rules: All Stars, before it was changed to Real World/Road Rules Challenge in the show's second season, and later shortened to The Challenge in the 19th season. The series initially had no hosts, but instead, a former cast member who had been kicked off his or her season provided assignments as Mr. or Ms. Big. David "Puck" Rainey, David Edwards, and Gladys Sanabria served this role.
Later, the series began to use hosts: Eric Nies and Mark Long co-hosted a season, and Jonny Moseley and Dave Mirra hosted various seasons before T. J. Lavin became the regular host, beginning with the 11th season.
After the second season, the show began using subtitles, such as Battle of the Sexes. Some seasons have had sequels, such as The Inferno, which is tied to The Inferno II and The Inferno III. The 23rd season, entitled Battle of the Seasons, premiered on September 19, 2012.
Each Challenge season pits numerous cast members from past seasons of The Real World and Road Rules against each other (only the Fresh Meat, Fresh Meat II and Cutthroat Challenges have introduced new cast members that have never appeared on either The Real World or Road Rules), usually dividing them into separate teams according to a certain criteria, which varies from season to season.
The criteria that the teams have been arranged by over the show's history have ranged all across the board, from gender of the contestants and original show of contestants to bad guy/good guy status of contestants and ex-romantic partners of contestants. Each of the opposing teams compete in numerous missions in order to win prizes and advance in the overall game.
Following each mission, two cast members are voted into an elimination round, in which they must compete against one another to determine which one is eliminated from the overall game and must leave the show. Each season has its own, very distinct elimination round, distinguished from those of other seasons by title, design, and general atmosphere.
Determining which two cast members will be sent into the elimination round frequently leads to drama and contestants playing the game dirty.Like that of The Real World, sporadically throughout the course of each episode, various contestants are seen privately giving confessionals about the events taking place on the show.
Each distinct title of a season has indicated the general gameplay format used, i.e. The Inferno II and The Inferno 3 are similar in format to the original Inferno, while new titles such as Cutthroat indicate new formats, in this case a three-team competition.
Most of the recent seasons have had a format in which gameplay cycles as follows: a challenge for all teams, followed by an elimination challenge in which the losing team faces off against a team selected by the winning team, resulting in elimination of the losers.
