The Challenge: Favorite/Fantasy Casts

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;397410]I doubt they'd try another battle of the seasons because of the ratings of the first[/QUOTE] Agreed! I think season 26 will be another individual challenge just with new rules. Maybe a theme though like all losers lol but its better with a mix.

[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;397413]Agreed! I think season 26 will be another individual challenge just with new rules. Maybe a theme though like all losers lol but its better with a mix.[/QUOTE] IMO it all depends on the ratings for free agents

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;397414]IMO it all depends on the ratings for free agents[/QUOTE] It does but I think they will be good, better than Rivals II and up there with Rivals I and Battle of the Exes. You?

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;397410]I doubt they'd try another battle of the seasons because of the ratings of the first[/QUOTE] Well Keep in mind. The only reason seasons did badly ratings wise is because people were unfamiliar with a lot of the cast members on that challenge. Since then a lot of the rookies who made their debut on that challenge are now gaining fanbases and people are getting familiar with them. I think that they could do another Battle of the Seasons but I would say they should try it after this upcoming challenge and the one after that(Provided it gets renewed). I think they would be in a better position to give it a go.

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;397431]Still IMO they should wait because there would be the same seasons pretty much[/QUOTE] True. Not many RW seasons have passed since That challenge so I'm with you on that.

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;397431]Still IMO they should wait because there would be the same seasons pretty much[/QUOTE] They could use Ex-plosion, Portland, DC, Sydney, Key West, Road Rules for new seasons and get different people from Vegas, NOLA, Austin.

[QUOTE=gamer73;397433]They could use Ex-plosion, Portland, DC, Sydney, Key West, Road Rules for new seasons and get different people from Vegas, NOLA, Austin.[/QUOTE] Well Johanna is done and Rachel had a baby so I think Austin would be the same IMO with only Nehemiah being different, they could get DC if Andrew would say yes. The key west girls are all done

[QUOTE=gamer73;397433]They could use Ex-plosion, Portland, DC, Sydney, Key West, Road Rules for new seasons and get different people from Vegas, NOLA, Austin.[/QUOTE] Yeah but the trick is getting 4 people from each of those seasons. Vegas could be a bit different. But Nola would be almost the same because I don't think Ryan, Eric, or Sahar would ever do a challenge. DC would be a good team they could do Ty, mike, Emily, and Ashley. Austin would be the same. Paula is done with challenges so key west would be screwed.

Every key west girl is done

For Battle Of The Seasons they could do teams like Real World Old School where people like Aneesa and CT would fit then they could have another team like Real World Vets or something with people that have a lot of challenges under their belt such as Johnny and Sarah.

I just realized for a thread titled "Favorite/Fantasy Casts" we haven't really discussed our favorite casts. What would be everyone's favorite Challenge casts?

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;397462]I just realized for a thread titled "Favorite/Fantasy Casts" we haven't really discussed our favorite casts. What would be everyone's favorite Challenge casts?[/QUOTE] The Ruins, I remember how excited I got reading the cast because it was such a diverse group.

[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;397462]I just realized for a thread titled "Favorite/Fantasy Casts" we haven't really discussed our favorite casts. What would be everyone's favorite Challenge casts?[/QUOTE] Battle of the Seasons 1 and 2-The 1st one was awash in Old-School castmembers who were entertaining and fun. One of the best challenge Cast ever. The 2nd one..Loved the Rookie Revolution even though a lot of people didn't and so many people made an impact that season it was ridiculous, Dustin, Alton, Frank, Marie, Devyn, etc..Best cast in years. The Gauntlet 2-Perfect mix of new(at the time) and Old. BMP needs to look at this challenge when they consider mixing the cast with Old and new. And it didn't have a lot of the Challenge Regulars of the time much like Mike/Coral/Abram/CT etc. It showed you didn't need them to have a good challenge. The Ruins-This Challenge was terrible..But It had a good Cast(with the Excpetion of JEK and Evelyn) Which made it all the more disappointing how that challenge played out. Inferno 2-This was when a lot of the older challengers were in their prime. Battle of the Sexes 1-Filled to the Brim with castmembers who are now considered old-schoolers. There's more I might post later.

My favorite casts would be: The Ruins The Duel Rivals 1 Fresh Meat The Inferno I'd probably put the Ruins at #1, just because of all the old schoolers returning and all the drama that unraveled. The Challengers team was disappinting, but Sarah, KA, Kimberly, Cohutta, and Brad were fun to root for.

My favorite challenge casts were Battle of the Seasons Battle of the Exes Rivals Cutthroat The Ruins The Gauntlet III The Duel Worst cast Free Agents (lol) Fresh Meat II The Duel II Inferno 3 (worst challenge EVER IMO)

Top 5 favorite casts. I base a lot of them off of the guys that are on there. Sorry girls. 1. The Inferno II- like someone else said on here, this challenge featured the "old schoolers" that we consider now, in their prime (ex: Mike, Derrick, Abram, CT, Brad). Plus 7 out of the 10 guys on this challenge are guys that everyone puts in their ultimate challenge cast (CT, Abram, Derrick, Brad, Mike, Darrell, Landon). Stacked cast for its time. 2. The Duel- personally I think this challenge was the best as far as competition goes. The guys cast was ******* awesome. Super competitive. And the guys that were on here are the competitors of the "Fresh Meat Era" that are starting to fade out were in their prime (Wes, Evan, Kenny, CT, Brad). Awesome challenge. 3. Fresh Meat- the best crop of rookie challengers that we have ever seen (Wes, Kenny, Evan, Evelyn, Diem) and it was different than anything we have ever seen before. The drama that unraveled and the surprises that we saw (Theo getting eliminated, Wes making it to the end, Coral actually going home) something fresh that we hadn't seen. 4. The Ruins- awesome to see a lot of the "old schoolers" come back and cool to see a lot of people that we hadn't seen in years come back. The drama that unraveled and how the cast interacted was awesome. The challenge itself was not anything to write home about. 5. Rivals- a lot of people may not like this challenge cast but of the challenge casts since The Ruins, this one was by far the best. My 5 least favorite challenge casts. 1. Battle of the Seasons- I stopped watching the Real World a long time before this challenge aired so I didn't really know a lot of the cast members on this challenge. Plus I for one like Kenny, Evan, and Johnny and with none of them there to put those dumb rookies in their place, it was painful to watch. It was hard to see Frank run the game as if he had been doing it for years. Awful challenge. 2. The Inferno 3- I honestly forget this challenge ever happened to be honest. 3. Fresh Meat II- I guess I compared the cast to much to the first Fresh Meat. This challenge and the cast did not live up to my expectations. The Fresh Meat II kids were a huge disappointment. The girls that came out of it were pretty decent, but the guys were pathetic. And the guys that were pretty good never even did another challenge. 4. Battle of the Exes- I don't know why, but I never really got into this challenge or the cast. I couldn't really relate to the cast and I thought the format was pretty silly. 5. Rivals II- too many of the pairs just made no sense to me and more than half the challengers on Rivals II were on Battle of the Seasons which I don't know if anyone noticed was my least favorite challenge cast. NOTE: I say all of this knowing very well that production can only cast people that are interested. I realized that they can't our favorite "old schoolers" anymore and they do the best they can, but I hear of a lot of cast members that have been wanting to come back or have been wanting to do a challenge that BMP just does not invite.

Best challenge casts: 1. Inferno 2 2. Gauntlet 2 3. The Duel 4. Inferno 5. Cutthroat Worst challenge casts: 1. Fresh Meat 2 2. Gauntlet 3 3. The Duel 2 4. Inferno 3 5. The Ruins (the only good people I thought were Veronica, Kellyanne, Wes and Cohutta)

[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;397635]How are you gonna do and you've never seen the challenge lol[/QUOTE] I'll make it up as I go along like episode 1 is teams episode 2 individual. Not that hard

Some more Casts I like. Rivals 2-THis challenge consisted of alot of people from Seasons 2(which I liked) So I naturally thought this cast was good. The only duds were Johnny/CT/Paula/Wes/Camilla. Duel 1-Great Cast..Although I would've gotten rid of the Fresh Meat and put in some Actual Castmembers in their place.

Battle of the Exes featured a great cast, my favorite of all time. It featured some of the finest the new generation has to offer while also managing to bring back a few iconic faces we hadn't seen in years like Mark and Rachel. This cast was quite impressive the way it was, but it gas been said that Coral would have gone had she known Rachel and Aneesa were gonna be there. It also sounds like Adam R. and Nany were supposed to be on as a team until MTV banned Adam from appearing at the last second. It's crazy to think an already legendary cast still could have been better. I thought the casts from both The Gauntlet and The Inferno were pretty impressive as well. These seasons featured the challenge debuts of legends Darrell and CT. These seasons each featured memorable one and done runs from Sarah G. (Gauntlet) and Kendal (Inferno). These two challenges were stacked with plenty of other big name players like Rachel, Veronica, Miz, Syrus, Abram, Coral, etc. that were all instrumental in putting the whole challenge series on the map. The current state of the challenges really make me appreciate how great the era of 03-04 really was.
