In case you hadn’t heard, The Challenge Australia is like a reality TV fan’s ultimate wet dream (feel free to put that on the poster, 10!).
Former cast members from The Bachelor, Love Island, Married at First Sight, Australian Survivor and I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here have all filmed episodes of the series for 10 in Argentina, hosted by Brihony Dawson.
The Challenge has 38 US seasons under its belt as a spin-off of MTV’s The Real World and Road Rules.
Think Big Brother meets Survivor…. sort of….
Players live together in one giant house, compete in extreme physical and mental challenges, and vote players into eliminations where they have to battle it out for their chance to stay in the game. But they also can form alliances, showmances and hook-ups -duh.
The finale male and female challengers will be declared Challenge champions by the end of the season, winning $100,000 each in prize money and later head into Paramount’s first ever The Challenge: Global Championship, where they will represent Australia.
Twenty two Reality TV faces will take on the challenge, literally. You’re excused if you draw a blank on many or all:

Well I am going to try and say something positive about this ……. ummm ‘thinking’ ‘thinking’ ….. I can’t
I’m really excited for The Challenge! The cast is a little bit ordinary but I hope the game-play is top notch!
However, I can’t see this rating well at all…
The cast definitely has me feeling meh – pales in comparison to the cast on the currently airing American Challenge on CBS (which had more than a few personal faves from American Survivor & TARUS)
I’m a big Reality Fan, but I’m only really feeling the Brookes (especially Survivor Brooke)
I will still watch out of curiosity and as a fan of The Challenge.
I’m Excited I’m a huge Fan of the The Challenge I’m curious how the Australian version is
Sounds truly dreadful. Only on 10 !
Disclaimer – I generally don’t watch reality tv, with a couple of exceptions.
I recognised 2 faces and 2 names from this list……
Isn’t this just VIP Big Brother? That ended well for 7 last year.
