The Reality Challenge

Reality Challenge 1: Big Brother Battle of the Seasons

After 17 seasons, it has finally come to this. The Challenge has been an MTV staple for years but now it's CBS's turn as they will have 32 contestants from their Big Brother series competing for their share of 300,000 dollars! They will be paired in teams of 2 based on their season (season 1 will be excluded). The only host for the first season of CBS's Reality Challenge would be none other than...


Yup, Jonny Moseley! 

Format
The competition will consist of 16 teams, one representing each Big Brother season (excluding season 1). Each team will feature one male and one female player from each season. After each round of competition, the top 3 teams become "The Innercircle". The Innercircle must meet for 1 hour and decide which one of the other remaining teams must face off in a Gauntlet competition as the loser of the competition will be automatically sent into the Gauntlet - the winning duo stays, and the losing team is sent packing.

Gauntlet Games
1 = Perfect Fit: Either 1 or 2 players each retrieve their team's floating tangram puzzle pieces in the water, carry them out of the water, and then use the pieces to solve a tangram puzzle. The first team to solve the puzzle wins. (If coed, both players will work together as a team.)

2 = Ride 'Em Cowboy: All competing players will ride a mechanical bull. The last team with player(s) remaining wins.

3 = Hang Ten: All competing players will be lifted above water, holding onto 2 rings with their hands. The last team with player(s) remaining on the ring(s) wins.

4 = Dead Man's Drop: All competing players will be lifted above water, hanging upside down on trapeze bars. The last team with player(s) remaining in the air wins.

5 = Knock Your Block Off: All competing players will be on a floating pontoon above the water. Each of them will be equipped with a foam helmet and a joust stick (a la American Gladiators). The last team with player(s) remaining on the pontoon wins.

6 = Reverse Tug-o-War: Each competing player attached to a rope harness in a sandy pit. The first team to capture their team's flag wins. (If coed, both players will work together as a team.)

Episode 1: Welcome to Paradise

Jonny Moseley welcomes the 16 teams to the beautiful Dominican Republic and tells them that they are competing for their share of 300,000 dollars! All the teams are amped and Janelle says in a confessional that she loves money. Jonny says that the winning team will receive 200,000 while the second place team receives 75,000 and if they finish third, they will receive 25,000 dollars. All the teams are amped and Jonny introduces the Gauntlet.

The teams all intermingle at the house and get drunk and a fight immediately pops off between Austin and Russell when Russell makes a comment about Big Brother 17 being the shittiest season yet. The two almost come to blows but are hauled apart by Howard and Frank and their respective partners tell them to calm down.

The next day, Jonny welcomes the teams to their first challenge called I Got You Babe where teams have to advance from one tall building to another, on a tightrope that is suspended 500 feet (150 m) above ground. The female partners advance on the tightrope, while their male partners are suspended on an overhead tightrope in a "Superman" position, and have to drop a rope toward their partners in order to advance on the tightrope. Teams are disqualified if the female partner falls off the tightrope. The three teams that advance from one building to another in the fastest time become the Innercircle, while the team whose female partner falls off the rope in the fastest time is automatically sent to the Gauntlet.

The teams all participate and the top three finishers are: Zach/Nicole in 1st, Eric/Jen in 2nd and shockingly Howie/Ivette in 3rd. The final team to finish is Jason/Lisa and Johnny tells them that he'll see them in the Gauntlet tonight.

Back at the house, the Innercircle of Zach/Nicole, Eric/Jen and Howie/Ivette discuss who they want to throw into the Gauntlet and Zach throws out the idea of sending Will/Janelle in by Howie immediately says no. They discuss throwing in weaker teams at first and eventually decide that Marvin/Nakomis are going into the Gauntlet. Marvin is pissed and says in a confessional that if they win the Gauntlet they are coming back with a fucking vengeance.

The teams all arrive at the Gauntlet and Jonny introduces the challenge for tonight as Ride 'Em Cowboy and the teams look stoked about it. The teams participate and Marvin is the first one to fall but Nakomis is able to hold on for a few moments longer before falling off as well meaning that Marvin/Nakomis's time in the Dominican is over and they are heading home. Jonny tells Jason/Lisa to rejoin the group.

Episode 2: Honeymoon's Over

The teams arrive back at the house after the Gauntlet and they head out to the club where everyone gets pretty freaking drunk which leads to a screaming match between Janelle and Libra over nothing in particular and Libra calls Janelle a blonde haired whore and Janelle is about to slap her across the face but Will grabs her just in time and tells her that they'll be kicked off if she does that.

The next day, Jonny introduces them to their second challenge Rounding the Bases and this challenge consists of a series of four tasks on a baseball diamond.
First base: Each team has to race across a bamboo lane, place a card between each others lips, and either "suck" or "blow" in order to advance the card around bamboo poles. If a team drops the card, they have to start from the beginning. The three last-place teams are eliminated from the challenge, while the last-place team at the first base is automatically sent to the Dome.
Second base: Each team has to unscrew a contraption — in a "sexually suggestive" manner; the male partner is positioned in front of and has to unscrew a pair of baseballs, while the female partner is positioned in front of and has to unscrew a baseball bat, and place the parts in a box at the finish line. The three last-place teams are out.
Third base: Each team has to lick off peanut butter at their designated stations in order to reveal numbers needed for a combination to unlock a pair of poles. The three last-place teams are out.
Home plate: Three teams remain at the final phase of the challenge. Each partner has to grab a 30-foot pole, 60 feet apart, insert the tip of one pole into another, and push until one pole pops out at the other end. The first team to advance their poles wins the entire challenge. The three teams to do it the quickest will be in the Innercircle while the first team eliminated is automatically sent into the Gauntlet.

The teams all compete in the challenge and Brendon/Rachel quickly fall out of it and are eliminated and sent straight into the Gauntlet. The top 3 teams (Innercircle) end up being Eric/Jen in 1st, Zach/Nicole in 2nd and Nathan/Alison in 3rd.

Back at the house, Rachel is crying about being in the Gauntlet and Brendon assures her that they will be staying in the game. Meanwhile, the Innercircle meets and Nathan says that he wants to toss in Austin/Vanessa or Jason/Lisa again but the two other teams say that they want Will/Janelle in and in 2-1 vote, the Innercircle decides that Will/Janelle will be facing the Gauntlet.

The teams enter the Gauntlet and Jonny introduces the challenge as Hang Ten. Both teams are hoisted up and the challenge begins. Rachel falls almost immediately and Janelle/Will look extremely confident. Brendon falls shortly thereafter meaning that Brendon/Rachel have been eliminated and there time in the Dominican has come to an end.

Episode 3: The Twist

The teams party after the elimination and Austin hooks up with Jen and Janelle calls Austin a douchebag because he has a girlfriend at home. Austin tells Janelle that she's one to talk when she's hooked up with people on Big Brother before and Janelle slaps him and Will hauls her away. Meanwhile, Howard and Porsche get close and eventually hook up.

The next day, Jonny wakes the contestants up and tells them that there is a twist in the game. He says that up to this point there has been an Innercircle of three teams but as of now...there will be on team in charge as the Power Couple. Everyone is absolutely shocked. Jonny introduces the challenge as On Again, Off Again in which teams have to spin on a wheel that is attached by ropes to a zip line above a pond, swim around a buoy at the opposite side of the pond, then return to the shore and ring a bell. Two teams (four players) compete at a time on the spinning zip line. The team with the fastest time wins the Power Couple, while the team with the slowest time is automatically sent to the Gauntlet. The teams all competed and in the end it is Austin/Vanessa that come in first place with Howie/Ivette coming in last and Jonny tells them that they are going into the Gauntlet.

Back at the house, Austin/Vanessa discuss who they want to throw in against Howie/Ivette and Austin says that he wants Will/Janelle in but Vanessa says that they don't want to piss off a power team and should go for the weakest. In the end, they decide to send the second worst team in the challenge, James/Sheila into the Gauntlet. James complains in a confessional about having an extremely weak partner and that he hopes it doesn't screw him.

The teams head to the Gauntlet and Jonny introduces the challenge as Reverse Tug-o-War. Howie is pumped up and thinks that they can win. The teams compete and Howie/Ivette dominate and manage to win. Jonny tells James/Sheila that their time in the Dominican is over and tells Howie/Ivette to rejoin the group.

Episode 4: Drama, Drama, Drama!

The teams arrive back at the house and congratulate Howie/Ivette on their huge win in the elimination. Nathan begins stirring up drama when he makes an offensive comment about Howard which ignites a war of words with Howard screaming that Nathan's a racist and that he needs to leave. It takes Hardy, Memphis and Jason to pull Howard away and calm him down but it's not done there as Aaryn and Alison get into a heated argument and Aaryn calls her a whore and says that she's a no good for nothing homewrecker. Porsche comforts Howard. Austin and Jen's relationship continues but Vanessa doesn't like it and admits in a confessional that she's worried Austin might be distracted.

The next day, Jonny introduces the fourth challenge as The Brush Off in which first, the girls have to run and jump into a large square pool of red paint, and cover themselves with as much paint as possible, then race up a cargo net, where their male partners will be positioned on a platform, next to a series of hanging canvasses that have 12 white squares. The girls will then transfer the paint with their bodies to their male partners, who will jump onto their designated canvas, and try to cover 12 white squares within a three-minute time limit. The challenge is played in two separate heats — of five and four teams — and the team whose male partner covers the most squares within a three-minute time limit wins, while the team whose male partner covers the fewest squares is automatically sent to the Gauntlet.

The teams all compete and it is Will/Janelle that end up coming in 1st notching their first challenge victory. Meanwhile, Russell/Natalie struggle greatly and end up finishing in last and Jonny tells them that they are heading into the Gauntlet.

Back at the house, Will/Janelle field offers for who should be sent to the Gauntlet. Howie/Ivette, who align with Will/Janelle say that they should throw Nathan/Alison in because they cause nothing but drama. Will likes this idea because they are certainly a strong team as well and in the end they decide to throw Nathan/Alison into the Gauntlet against Russell/Natalie.

The teams head to the Gauntlet where Jonny introduces the challenge as Perfect Fit. Russell/Natalie and Nathan/Alison compete and Nathan/Alison come out with the victory and Jonny tells Russell/Natalie that their time in the Dominican is over. Nathan/Alison rejoin the group and Howard says in a confessional that he wants to wipe that smirk off Nathan's face.
