    I think Matthew is setting himself up for failure here 😂 He's watching a competitive show, but chooses to like cast members who aren't competitive. Then gets mad at the competitive Challengers for not protecting the non-competitve people who can't offer them anything.
    Its up to those people to figure out how to last in this game. It makes no sense to continue to blame everyone (including production). Amanda is in the position she's in because she is constantly picking fights with people who outmatch her in competition & social game. Either she needs to get a better strategy or calm down....either way its on her.

      @@0104brit I think the issue is that it’s getting boring! Yes it’s competitive, but it is also a tv show. People bring different aspects to the show, and if it is only athleticism, it’s not interesting. This is not Football game, where everyone is a major athlete and ONLY the battles between the two teams is what is entertaining. The is a reality show where the competition is supposed to shake up the power structure and create drama. A steamroll is never compelling television.

Since Total Madness the seasons have got worse and worse, probably coinciding with the formation of the Vacation Alliance.

    I think the issue is not only the money but also the fans to be fair.
    People are afraid to have authenthic fights or make big moves coz they will get hate, they will lose fans, sponsorships, crazies will go harass their family, try to cancel them...this era of social media is really unkind to people.
    Which is why I do stand so hard behind Josh, coz the amount of hate that guy gets for not being a passive player like most of Era 4, but doing stuff - is insane. And yes if you do stuff, chances are you will make mistakes or piss off fans, hence most Era 4 people coast.
    I think if the fans stopped threatening, bullying and yelling at everyone they dont like, the cast would stop worrying so much about how they are being perceived, I do think the cast changed also coz the fans did (not all of us ofc, but it became much more normal for people to be toxic on social media than it was in past)
    If CT/Nia/Jordan were cast in Era 4 they d never get a call back and d be probably cancelled for life and probably also not be willing to come back
    As Paul from BB19 said recently "I thought i was cast on reality tv, not to be the CEO of Red Cross. "
    And I do not evne like Paul, but the truth is that fans created this toxic environemnt where we expect better behavior from a reality tv stars than from the president, and that is an actual threat to the future of reality tv.

      @@Bangbang-xt7kf You have missed the point. The Challenge used to be the best reality tv show there is. It was my favourite. I watched from the 90’s when it was people from the real world and road rules competing. I started this channel for this show, because I loved it so much. In the past it had everything and the cast wasn’t these major athletes. I appreciate competition, but having that solely be what the show is about is boring. If the producers want to turn it into “the 5th Sport” then I feel like weight class etc has to be taken into consideration. Unfair fights are boring. One side steamrolling another is boring. If that is what the wanted, they should stop casting people on the show that bring entertainment if they just want a battle of the meat heads. And speaking of Love Island, their competitive version of the show “Love Island Games” was much more successful IMO, AND they did a version of this elimination challenge. The dailie and the elimination channel is at most 1/3 of each episode. Obviously the show can’t rely solely on competition, or else it would be shorter. Maybe that could fix the problem.
