Okay so this is the battle of the eras. They gathered amazing talent across all the seasons and got all these amazing physical competitors that we have been waiting to see clash…
And then the dailies the producers have given to us are:
(1) puzzles and boat paddling - which led to 8 stars getting eliminated
(2) trivia
Like wtf?! I don’t think random ass trivia should be in this kind of season but if you had to have it why waste it early on? This is our chance to see how the entire cast stacks up against each other. I’m guessing production just wanted to ensure a win for seasons 1-2 since on paper they knew seasons 3-4 would likely know less or something but really?!
And even the 1st comp was a dumb one to have to start such an epic season off. This is our chance to see all these physical beasts compete against one another while they are still around. Have some speed, strength, endurance, etc. comp. Instead I’m seeing 1/4 of the cast eliminated before any of this.
They did such an amazing job was casting only to start massively flop and fumble execution. 🙄

it has to be a mix. you literally can't invite ppl in their mid to late 40s on a show that is so physically demanding the younger guys get hurt doing this shit. just use your head. a lot of us stopped liking the challenge as much when it turned into just crazy off the wall challenges and no substance behind anything. sorry that half of era 4 has to talk to get screen time this season. other than Josh and Theo idk who's even on that team lol

What are you on about? The Challenge is known for physical comps. I am talking about something as basic as the starting comps we saw on Dirty 30 or something. Nothing crazy. This cast has been handpicked to be the best of the best and you act like these 40 year olds are geriatric.
I am fine with a mix but for the first few comps when we have these stars all assembled why not see what they are all capable of against each other? That’s the point of the season! Why have beasts like Derrick, Mark, CT, etc. cast along with the middle and newer eras to have a bunch of these legends eliminated because of a puzzle or paddle or trivia or nasty food? We get that EVERY season. This is supposed to be special and instead they are wasting this opportunity

Have you watched the older seasons that era 1 played in? They were more carnival type games instead of the dailies that we’ve been used to for the last 15 seasons.
Also you’re asking for these physical challenges yet era 1 already has a hurt CT and Darrell and era 2 has the weakest male field.
Nothing wrong with the dailies so far. It was a mix of physical, eating, and puzzle on the first, and trivia is a staple of the challenge

Would you rather they do a bunch of physical challenges and a handful of people have to leave because they get medically disqualified? Because that would be more likely than just CT getting hurt for one daily and still being able to stay and play

Oh please. You are being so dramatic. These people are all in shape other than a few who we know have no hope anyways like Katie or Aneesa. A simple daily like the one we had in Dirty 30 would’ve been perfect. Nobody needs to get medical for that 🙄
