MTV’s “The Challenge,” originally titled “Road Rules: All Stars” and later “Real World/Road Rules Challenge,” is a competitive spinoff of two of the network’s iconic reality series, “Real World” and “Road Rules.” The series places former contestants from those shows in exotic locations and pits them head-to-head in physically and emotionally exhausting challenges, with winners receiving cash and prizes.
“The Challenge,” created by Bunim/Murray Productions with executive producers Jonathan Murray, Gil Goldschein, Scott Freeman and Justin Booth, has been renewed for 12 one-hour episodes.
“Are You the One?” focuses on 10 single women and 10 single guys who are put through an extensive matchmaking process. The 20 are then asked to spend a month together, during which they get to know one another and attempt to figure out which other contestant is their match. Winners get to split a $1 million cash prize.
