This coming week, we commence the Twelve Days of Christmas at the end of, in the vast consensus of most of us, a year that we'd rather put in the trash or put up into the attic never to be heard from again. But as we're in the midst of a never-ending pandemic, an uneasy transition in the presidency, continuing protests and just sheer panic going on right now despite the joy of the holidays, one thing has helped bring this divided America together this second week in December. That would the thrill of seeing some badass competitors from around the world of reality television go for $1 million in what is called The Fifth Major Pro Sport. And it's in that spirit that we at DCBLOG kick off our coverage of the 36th season of MTV's The Challenge, and the spy thriller known as Double Agents.

Earlier this year amidst so much attention from the general public and a media both starving for something fresh and competitive during the unprecedented shutdown of virtually all spectator sports in America & overseas, Total Madness became comfort food for everybody and not just for Challenge Nation. We were offered the perfect respite from the chaos going on outside our windows to see the many things we love about the show: amazing action from a stacked group of veterans and rookies, big-time drama going down among that cast which characterizes the unique brand of reality TV that MTV just loves doing, and the never-ending twists that the show's 15-year host, BMX rider TJ Lavin, just loves to unleash as he has just turned the big 4-O with keys to the city of his Las Vegas hometown.

Now just nearly five months after Johnny Bananas & Jenny West reigned victorious at the summit, it's with winter settling in in the Northern Hemisphere that the page turns to its newest volume, and faces old and new getting together once again. Double Agents will see these players get paired up into two-player teams, and where there will be plenty of twists awaiting them including the one lone ticket to the dash for the cash: a skull for the big bucks. And on Monday night - last night as we documented it on here, there was a special icebreaker in an hour-long preview as the competitors got acquainted with each other and their surroundings, which is fortunately in an actual house and not a bunker.

And for every opening act, there is always the main event: after their first night at the new house in the middle of nowhere, the competitors are en route to the venue of the season's first challenge... and just as it was to begin the post-trilogy era it's a game of memory to decode a combination and to see who will have first dibs at controlling the game... and getting to watch everyone else getting paired up AYTO-style for the teams. And after all the politicking and more of the get-to-know-you phase, then comes our first trip into the winter's elimination chamber known as the Crater -- and it's what happens there with how things play out and how things will function that will set the tone for what Double Agents is about.

After the jump, all the action, reaction and interaction of the first Challenge Wednesday since back during the heat of the summer... all as the cast saw it on Hump Day and specially curated for all of you to enjoy in its uncensored and raw nature - and that includes explicit language and if you're mature enough then read with discretion. Plus after the diary, the man whose pre All-Star plans went viral in the MTV circles last year makes it clear who he's rooting for. Thanks for joining in Challenge Nation, and welcome... it's so good to have you with us.

@TheLionelGreen: It’s in the books. I’m officially on @MTV. Pretty damn cool!

@CohenBrian_: TJ is such a boss #TheChallenge36
@CohenBrian_: Remember that time @mattliguori took a full fledged Olympian to not the win season ahead of Kaycee and Kam? #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: The Challenge production team definitely saw how much people loved Among Us #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Darrell is all of us watching Nicole #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: 2020 until #thechallenge36 started
@TheAllanAguirre: Gotta give it to Aneesa. After 18 years on the show, she's beating out an Olympian and a Sole Survivor in the first daily challenge of the season. #TheChallenge36
@lashtweets: This is the HOTTEST opening in challenge history. #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: Aneesa when everyone is worried about the Olympian. #TheChallenge36
@ZachAFaulkner: CT Just lived out every #TheChallenge36 's fans dream. Smacking Wes in the face LOL!
@emilylongeretta: Watching this on repeat. @WestonBergmann I did much more than a little chuckle. A gif forever? Nope, I need this whole video #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Mechie was the first guy up that hill. Might not be the biggest guy on the house, but he's fast and athletic. They cast him to hookup, he might be a sleeper though.  #TheChallenge36
@kmacisco: YOU GO GIRL @AneesaMTV #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Loving the ‘80s music and cool, high-tech intro.! #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: They took it all the way back to New Zealand 1998 for the intro. ! #TheChallenge36
@kendallongg: FIRST EPISODE AND MY BABY GOT IT ON LOCKDOWN!!! LETS GO @AneesaMTV 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣 #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Cory throwing shade on Josh lolz #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Fessy might not be street smart based on his Big Brother gameplay, but the guy is book smart. #TheChallenge36
@CohenBrian_: So that was the best opening to a Challenge season ever right? Do we just to call it quits now? #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: TJ pulling up in a helicopter! Face with open mouth #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: Fessy, who gassed out on the last finale, just called out Aneesa for not having endurance? k. #thechallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: CT BASICALLY LEFT KAM ON "READ" WTF #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: First Set of Pairs: Fessy/Aneesa, Cory/Tori, Nany/Kyle, Theresa/Jay   #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Second Set of Pairs: Devin/Nicole, Wes/Natalie, Darrell/Amber B, Lio/Gabby #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Third Set of Pairs: Kam/Josh, Leroy/Kaycee, CT/Ashley, Joseph/BigT #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Fourth Set of Pairs: Lolo/Nam, Nelson/Amber, Mechie/Liv #TheChallenge36
@CohenBrian_: I'd even watch Wes and Natalie as the next duo on True Detective #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Darrell has the same face a lot of fans do right now when Wes swept in and took Natalie #TheChalleng36
@emilylongeretta: TBH? This entire cast is STACKED. Legit everyone would be happy with every single person. #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Liv is hilarious! Super-memory #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Wes flopping after getting hit by a shoe LoL #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Aneesa killed it! Starting off strong #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Not gonna lie, Wes is the closest thing we have to Tyson on the Challenge. This is the closest we'll get to a real Nat + Tyson duo on this show. #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Fessy will be a force to be reckoned with #TheChallenge36
@Juanderful19: Can’t believe no one picked Lolo #TheChallenge36
@lashtweets: I HAVE SO MANY THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS ABOUT THESE PAIRS #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: The fact that CT, from Boston, needs subtitles SENT ME. #thechallenge36
@emilylongeretta: I didn’t know anything about Joseph but sleeping in the bar? I’m in. 100% me. #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: I love Big T because she embraces every single part of the Challenge. She wants to win challenges, politic, win elims, and be all a part of the show/process. I wish everyone came in with that Big T energy. #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Joseph must have watched CT sleep his way through the past few seasons and thought that must be the best game strategy. #TheChallenge36
@lashtweets: WHOOOOO let Nam and Lolo pair up? FOOLS #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Lowkey Amber might be a better partner for Darrell than Natalie because the Big Brother people give Darrell the social connections that he does not have. Plus, you know if worst comes to worst and the BB people turn on them, then Darrell just has to beat Josh #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: CT trying to find out where all the votes are going #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: Me attempting to hide from 2020. #TheChallenge36
@CohenBrian_: We also have the best voting system? And actual alliances? Voting strategies? This is the Mike Trout of #TheChallenge36 premieres.
@sjmedd: Name a bigger power duo than Ashley & CT in the history of the Challenge #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Players when CT tells them he's hearing rumors they'll people are voting him into the first elimination  #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Kam got it out for CT. Leroy is willing to play dirty now #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Yes, it would be smart to go after the champions CT & Ashley #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Big T is such a good friend. Also, I love this scene with the UK girls.  #TheChallenge36
@StevenPlummer22: WOW! #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Everyone voted for CT and Ashley except CT/Ashley, Wes/Natalie, and then Devin and Big T. Devin is Wes's best friend, and Big T's is loyal to Ashley. #TheChallenge36
@CohenBrian_: This is needs to be the format/structure for every season forever. #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: The votes are secret this year! HUGE gamechanger #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: They get to see who voted for who?  #TheChallenge36
@lashtweets: @CohenBrian_ LETS NOT GET CARRIED AWAY. (but ya i came here to tweet this is the greatest season of all time)
@lashtweets: Kind of mad at the new viewers who get to come in and experience a perfect season of #TheChallenge36 without having paid their dues. Is this how the vets feel?
@TheAllanAguirre: As a massive fan of the Smiths, I am offended to see people calling this the "Charmed Theme Song" However, I am probably offending many Charmed fans with my being offended. #TheChallenge
@TheAllanAguirre: Kam, Aneesa, and Fessy after forcing a Wes/Natalie vs CT/Ashley elimination. #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: Not complaining about two massive threats going head to head BUT as a viewer, I’m bummed. I wanted to watch all four of these players longer #TheChallenge36
@StevenPlummer22: Oh my goodness! This season isn’t playing around!!! #TheChallenge36
@CohenBrian_: This is why don't make a power move in episode 1 when you don't know the rules yet. Rookie mistake from vets showing why they've never won. #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: MTV Producers scrambling to make this a "Female Elimination Day"  once it's CT and Wes in elimination. They aren't gonna risk losing the two people they spent the most $ on to be there to leave on Episode 1. #TheChallenge36
@lashtweets: IF YOU COULD HEAR ME SCREAM IN MY APT #TheChallenge36
@kmacisco: “I’m bound from my wrists and my ankles and...sometimes I like that” @MTVASHLEYBROOKE is too funny #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Honestly, these big moves still make waves because one of the top females is getting eliminated regardless. Yeah, it's not as good as getting two of them out, but one in the hand is worth 2 in the bush or something like that. #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Wes and CT when TJ tells them it's a Female Elimination #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: I legitimately think this elimination is one of the harder eliminations. You need to have ridiculously good core strength, and then some upper-body/leg strength. Natalie weighs a little more, but Ashley has less body control/gangly long limbs. #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: I am soooo bummed. #TheChallenge36 is so much less fun to watch without @MTVASHLEYBROOKE
@lashtweets: FINALLY they found a good place to leave off on with a to be continued #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: I expected Natalie to do a little better, Ashley to do a little worse. However, once Nat got into the groove though, she killed it. Ashley's body-type is not built for this elimination and the fact she almost won is a testament to her heart/drive. Great Elim.  #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: If you are Natalie, the right move is to steal Leroy. You force Kam's hand by partnering with her man, and then you give the BB alliance (KAYCEE) to either Wes or CT, who were just targeted by them. THAT WOULD TURN THIS WHOLE GAME UPSIDE DOWN. #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: The Double Agents get to see who got voted in, and who voted for who! Game-changer #TheChallenge36
@CohenBrian_: What a premiere. #TheChallenge36
@emilylongeretta: LOL @ Lolo being shocked a Challenge champ went home to a rookie. Natalie is NOT a normal rookie, 1. Also... this happens all the time now, so ??? Upside-down face #thechallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: Hey everyone, if you have thoughts about the Premiere, how about you read my recap where I breakdown all the new pairs, the first elimination, and more! I just published Challenge Double Agents Episode 1 Recap: 10 Biggest Takeaways #TheChallenge36  https://t.co/Hzqtnkji1g?amp=1
- @TheAllanAguirre: EPISODE 1 RECAP... * Power Ranking The Pairs / * Aneesa's Big Day / 
* Kamroy BB Alliance / * CT accidentally tanking Ashley's game / * 10 Skull Twist  / * Why was Declassified Not Ep 1?   #TheChallenge36
@TheAllanAguirre: CT rejecting Kam as a partner put a target on Ashley and himself. Also, it allowed the Big Brother Alliance (Fessy, Kaycee, Josh, Amber) to fuse with the Kamroy Alliance (Kam, Leroy, Nany) He accidentally formed a 5 team alliance that he's not part of. #TheChallenge36
@WillFromAmerica: THIS FORMAT, THIS CAST, THIS PRODUCTION DESIGN, THIS EDITING. If you aren’t watching #TheChallenge36, what the fuck are you doing?
@Itslluna: The best show on television is back! #TheChallenge36
@GamerVev: Devin & Nicole is the most intolerable team in Challenge history #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: CT is back in prime form #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Huge blunder on @ChallengeMTV for not doing CT vs. Wes, or both men & women in elimination! #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Natalie beating the champ Ashley! South Asians represent #TheChallenge36
@sjmedd: Theresa is back! She is married with kids now, woww #TheChallenge36
@theballisorange: The Challenge pulled off an entire season in a bubble in Iceland and didn’t spend a single second of the 90 minute season premiere bragging about it. I love this show so much.
@dc408dxnow: Never thought I’d be saying this again this year, but here we are. And let’s get it on in Iceland. #DCChallenge
@dc408dxnow: .@tjlavin is welcoming the group once again to his game. This past week he got a key to the city of Las Vegas for his 40th birthday, and once again there’s $1 million out there. But first up, they’re off… #DCChallenge
@dc408dxnow: It’s gonna take a while for me to get used to who is being paired up… and we’re gonna have a jumble when I get to sort this out. But again, this is gonna be a twisted game. #DCChallenge
@dc408dxnow: So everyone is paired up. Fessy and Aneesa are exempt and have control. Everyone will be up for the cut, and the skull is back as it’s a ticket to the final. And only 10 tickets are available for the game. #DCChallenge
@dc408dxnow: They’re gonna be voting things in secret just as Natalie and Jay are used to on the island. But here, they want to make this all clear out of the gate that this is a totally new game and things won’t be as it has been… #DCChallenge
@dc408dxnow: Aneesa & Fessy find out that that Ashley & CT voted them in almost by acclimation. And now comes the difficult part: picking their opponents. #DCChallenge
@dc408dxnow: How about this: four on the floor. As in four champions. Ashley & CT taking on Wes & Natalie. But the women will be facing each other instead. And the agents get burned as does the house. #DCChallenge
@blackzeusfit: Yup #challenge36 is gonna be one for the books this cast is perfect
@blackzeusfit: Daaaaang second note is @MTVASHLEYBROOKE caught the backlash from CT not picking Kam suuuuuucks!!!!
@mtvcanada: @fessyfitness We'd *never* pick favourites on #TheChallenge36 buuuuuuuut there's just something about you this season. 
@amberborzotra: Happy Birthday @amba1210 I hope you enjoy YOUR day..Sending loads of love and light your way! Xx #EarthStrong
@MTVASHLEYBROOKE: Last thing. Thank you guys so much for the love. It makes me emotional. I thought I would be so ashamed I didn't want to even get on social. I truly love each and every one of you challenge fans (even the haters) #thechallenge36
- @amberborzotra: Love you @MTVASHLEYBROOKE 
@BunimMurray: Cheers to another season of @ChallengeMTV and the Production & Post teams that made it happen during a crazy year!

GRAM SCAN: LOOK AT THAT MASK...

Briefly, as we speak to you on this Saturday 12/12/20, the NBA has just tipped off an abbreviated preseason ahead of its scheduled Opening Week during the Christmas holidays. For us in the MTV fandom and those who are lucky to be part of the community, it's likely you recall that now-famous locker room soundbite in Indianapolis in February 2019 when Bucks superstar and league MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo was asked what he was planning to do during the All-Star Weekend. Him telling reporters of his plans to spend his off-day in bed resting and watching MTV shows -- and giving The Challenge a shoutout -- struck a big chord in this ecosystem.
   In the ladder part of this week, the MVP and the other teams in the league have taken part in media day to talk with the press and take photography ahead of the preseason slate and the regular season. And it's in these photo sessions that Giannis got to profess his support for the biggest no-show of this Challenge season: Johnny Bananas. This is the first regular Challenge season without the 7-time champion in eight years, but thanks to his other TV gig we'll still be spending part of our week with the Banana Man hosting the show that comes on after Saturday Night Live in NBC's 1st Look TV - and tonight's program sees him join those essential workers who have kept us safe during this tough year, especially now as the pandemic rages on.
    Johnny posted a Twitter pic of the MVP wearing a mask he bought from his website and captioned, "Shoutout to my man @Giannis_An34 for sportin the Gold GOAT mask, and best of luck to the MVP this upcoming season 👏🏀"




Coming up: for the countless lowlights we have had this year, 2020 has had its highlights and one of them is the emergence of new parents in the MTV family... and one of them comes from our friends down south. We'll head down to Florida to meet the new parent-to-be from Floribama Shore, among other things as we at DCBLOG rage on Inside MTV Reality. Enjoy your Saturday everyone...

- I AM DC
