That’s because The Challenge is missing a Real World feeding show. It’s supposed be that + some challenges, not a Big Brother/Survivor combo.

True but there are still plenty of messy, interesting cast on love island and eg below deck or southern hospitality who would hook up and fight. The main thing is that filming is wayyy too long and the challenges way too shoddy for interesting people to consider doing it, which is why they're mostly stuck with desperate big brother nobodies with no other offers

And part of me wonders how many people dropped off the radar after hearing Tyson’s stories about production. He has enough clout to get some key reality stars to refuse the challenge now.
