MTV’s Survivor Style Challenge
Last week I rambled on about how MTV had not done a challenge since the Gauntlet 3. Well I can stop ranting. MTV is bringing us an all new challenge in the fall. There was a promo the other night after the Real World Hollywood finale, yes I watched the finale and boy am I glad I did. The promo for the new challenge, called The Island, was awesome. The Island is a Survivor Style challenge. The former Real World/Road Rules “stars� will compete against each other in an every man for himself challenge. The contestants will be isolated on an Island where they will compete for a grand prize of $300,000.Yep that is right, it’s individual challenge time, which I have to say, I like. After years of team challenges, MTV did need to changes things up a bit. By the looks of it from the promo, it will be completely different. I mean one could say they are doing a Survivor rip off, but personally I have faith that MTV will put their own spin on it to make it not so much like Survivor. I mean let’s face it; the type of drama that goes on the challenges is so much better than Survivor. And I am a Survivor fan, but there is no drama as good as a bunch of old Real Worlders and Road Rulers hanging out for 30 days, getting drunk and trying to win that money. Like I said it begins this fall, not sure when exactly but I’ll keep you posted. I love the challenges. Plus in the promo my all time favorite challenge participant Derek is on it, he alone is worth watching the show. Alright readers stay tuned for more updates on The Island.
