The Challenge: World Championship

Nauseating. Combined episodes 1 and 2, with a run time of 70:24 had about 20 minutes of actual competition. The rest was Twitter-level narcissistic regurgitation, dramatic "DUNDUNDUN!"s, and the host repeating himself over and over and over... "Is that your final decision?" cut-away "Like, oh.. Mah god! I can't believe it!" back to host "Is that your final decision?" cut-away "I can't believe they picked her, like ermagerd!!!" back to host "Are you positive?"

Watching this show is agonizing. The competitors are almost all kind-of revolting people. The dramatic music and sound effects are really pathetic. If you enjoy listening to idiots debate who they are going to choose for whatever needlessly convoluted BS is about to eventually happen, for 10 times longer than the actual time allotted to that BS, then this show is for you.

Garbage TV.

Let's face it: the flagship Challenge has been on a hard decline ever since Season 32-33. With The Challenge: World Championship, the drama and OG competitors are back and better than ever. A lot more political talk, fighting, bullying, which is what we LOVE to see. It's so boring when the competitors get along, because there's no conflict or tension. In this season, there is plenty of that. The challenges themselves have been super interesting and fun to watch, too.

Ignore the people who are complaining that there is "too much drama" and "not enough competition" because that's entirely untrue. The house politics is what the show was built on, so if you're not trying to see that then go watch some Sunday Night Football instead.
