I turned 40 this year. I have been around for this since day 1. Excited for this. There are some OG’s I wish were on this season, but I’m still excited. We all know TJ DON’T PLAY!
Im going to admit that I love The Challenge, but I can never get enough of TJ's evil laughter when contestants suck at trivia and end up in the water...his laugh makes me laugh! I'm so excited for this season to begin. Let's Go!!! Edit: I wrote my comment before I watched the video and then when TJ said "Let's Go!" I cracked up laughing. At this point most of us faithful watchers can guess how TJ or certain players are going to react or speak. 😂❤
I love TJ… So glad he still hosting the challenge… He's one of my favorite parts about the challenge… Been watching it for many years and it has really evolved over the errors and this is gonna be a great year… Really looking forward to it
This show is all about the competitors and their camaraderie/trials and tribulations that we've watched since 98. That's why this shows lasted. Do not lose sight of that. That is why the flagship show is the best.
I want to know why so many competitors this season are saying the conditions and food were horrible, even several competitors vowing to never come back.
There are a lot of high profile accounts and fans saying S40 is a flop. I recommend everyone to not listen to them and to just watch for themselves. The fandom are criticizing this season because of the production format, as it is very competitive (Hardly surprising given its a milestone season) which sees a lot of challengers who are fan favorites being eliminated in not so favorable eliminations. This was always going to be the case in a season that has so many stars.
Agree but most are getting too old to compete so gotta get em from somewhere. I wish they’d bring back the real world and start getting people from that show again
@@DukeJimbob there’s plenty that still got it, but it’s the daily’s and eliminations that got weak! Use to be maybe 25% puzzles with endurance involved, to more the 75% puzzles, and they can’t say or do anything even slightly offensive anymore, otherwise they are banned and can’t come back!!
There ruining this TV SHOW by treating it like a sport instead of .. A TV SHOW..no one watches reality TV for the competition, we watch it for the funny moments and the drama.. both of which have been lacking for a long time
I still watch the show religiously but I do agree with you. There should be a element of competition 100% but they've lost their way when it comes to the reality tv show side of it. Ppl love drama lol. You need it
You can take it up to who is running the show now but after 40 seasons, I think the show is far removed from how it was back in the old days where it was just Real World vs Road Rules in a series of fun silly challenges where they make dough every week.
They tried and the internet softies get mad at anything nowadays. They’ve literally tried to ban some people from the show for things that was said years ago so now they’re afraid to say or do anything controversial
Setting up the daily challenge, the elimanations and the finals. TJ reads it like he's actually not reading. He's been doing it so long, he makes it look like adlib.
Best show out there!! Crazy to think more people don’t know about it.
This is gonna be so good. A ton of my favorite competitors assembled together in one season. Unreal. Been watching since the 3rd season.
@@Namastayyy You say "assemble" and my brain responds "Avengers!" Lol.
@@genialgigi1800 you’re not wrong, it’s almost like the avengers of The Challenge are on this season. The MCU is getting hot again 🤣
Can't wait🙌
Era I is for real OGs
I have been watching the challenge since the beginning and its hands down my favorite show of all time, I CANNOT WAIT
Same
Feel this
Era I all the way

I love seeing all the comments about being there since day 1 (me too!) I hope to be around to see their kids doing Challenges ❤
I love TJ… So glad he still hosting the challenge… He's one of my favorite parts about the challenge… Been watching it for many years and it has really evolved over the errors and this is gonna be a great year… Really looking forward to it
61 & have watched from beginning...My favorite show ❤
Yay TJ looks amazing! I can't wait to see this new season.
I like how there have been so many different hosts for the Challenge until they found TJ Lavin and stuck with him.
Mosely was the worst! Lol
It's only been a handful. Lol
@@ohhellnowassupdog9040 Wasn't Dave Mirra a host as well, if I'm remembering right?
@@mlmartin2922 Yes, I think he did the season right before TJ came on. Could be wrong, but I definitely remember his shaved head, lol
@@ohhellnowassupdog9040 Yep.
I've been watching the challenge since day 1!!! And I can't wait for the premiere!!! And TJ is the best host!!!
LOVE THE CHALLENGE !!! TJ has the best job ever!!!!!!
Yay.....it's TJ!!! We love you so much
I cant wait for this season! Give it to me now!
Who is still watching this after 19 years?
Me
Me too
Me!
Yup!
i ammmm
I can't wait!! ❤️💯
One of the best ever to do it!
WELCOME TO THE CHALLENGE!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Not it’s going to be a purge right at the start 😭
40 contestants, they have to. Otherwise, this will be going till Xmas, lol.
@ohhellnowassupdog9040 Sad but true. I'm like please get rid of Era 4 lol. I'm a real OG
@-BakedInDaBarrio- The Era Invitational claimed quite a few heads!
I can't wait!!! I LOVE the Challenge

Era I for the real OG's 🙌🔥
Omg I love this so much for him.
❤ I am addicted ❤❤❤
Can't wait! If you haven't seen this show yet, it's arguably the best competition show on TV.
The stunts and challenges they compete in are NO JOKE.
I never realized everyone on these shows are pretty attractive when I was younger.
This about to be epic, Still wish Zach came back 🤙🏾💯
Can't wait to see what you cooked up this season, TJ!!!!
TJ has been fine my whole life 😩
WE ARE READY 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lovee the older cast, they look great.

Melissa won’t ever regret quitting finals because she was pregnant
I can’t wait ❤😊
Love you Tj
I do find it funny that this has been on longer than Survivor but has less seasons then Survivor.
Hey TJ hey!!!
You can do it, Tori and CT!
all my homies love TJ
👏👏👏 Love Johnny Bananas!!!
Fucken Juiced !!!
Also, I hope that The Challenge USA season 3 will film soon…😢❤ Come on CBS/Paramount Plus! #thechallengeusa #thechallengeusa3 #challenge40
USA2 only happened as the strikes last uear
@lillynicholexo Still liked it though. Hoping for Challenge USA to return soon
I hope so too
CBS and Paramount are what’s ruining the challenge, especially if you’ve been one that’s watched since day one!
@@jessicabeaudoin73Agreed. The challenges aren't nearly up to par.
this dude sounds like dana white on edibles
Love TJ
It’s crazy because I haven’t seen the show since the 30th season 😭
Get it TJ
Teej ❤❤❤❤
Watch since season 1 - Road Rules: All Stars
Wait. The secret sauce is US the fans. We keeping y'all on TV.😂😂😂😂😂
It evolving is what’s ruining it, we want old school OG’s and daily’s/eliminations, 39 was horrible!!
Agree but most are getting too old to compete so gotta get em from somewhere. I wish they’d bring back the real world and start getting people from that show again
@@DukeJimbob there’s plenty that still got it, but it’s the daily’s and eliminations that got weak! Use to be maybe 25% puzzles with endurance involved, to more the 75% puzzles, and they can’t say or do anything even slightly offensive anymore, otherwise they are banned and can’t come back!!
I thought MTV went off the air a long time ago
The Challenge is the only MTV show I like; it's keeping MTV on the air.
Idk they show ridiculousness like 20 hours a day but challenge is the best show on that network
Wouldn't survivor be the longest running reality competition show,??
I think ure right
I guess since the challenge uses people from real world that it’s considered a continuation of that show
@@DukeJimbob o ok. That makes sense
@@DukeJimbob is the real world considered competition reality?
@@Kyler.Mellen no it’s not
Tj Illumilavin
Do any of y’all know the real reason why TJ hates quitters???
You guys cheated Horacio😢 so messed up what you guys did to him!
I love TJ but he seems high AF here
Ummmm. 🤤 I love me some TJ! 🥵
0:58 Amanda knows she don't belong on this season lmao
💀💀💀😂
the travel times¿
MTV the challenge is great
CBS the challenge is garbage

@@DukeJimbob I don't know about that but at least three were banned from coming back because of a lawsuit that has since been settled.
@@jlhabitan50 I know Evan Kenny and Camilla have been. They’ve also tried to go after Emily Jordan and Bananas also
What does he mean write the show?
I guess they need writers for what TJ says before the challenges start
Setting up the daily challenge, the elimanations and the finals. TJ reads it like he's actually not reading. He's been doing it so long, he makes it look like adlib.
Teeeeej
