MTV celebrates the franchise that invented the reality-competition genre with the season 35 premiere of “The Challenge: Total Madness,” kicking off on Wednesday, April 1st at 8:00PM ET/PT. The highly-anticipated hit series will feature 90-minute episodes and is set to roll out globally across MTV’s international networks in 180+ territories in the coming months.
Following a successful season of “War of the Worlds 2,” which scored the highest franchise premiere in six years, the explosive new season returns to a solo game format where no one is safe and it’s every traitor for themselves. Twenty-eight players will face strenuous challenges in pursuit of the $1 million-dollar prize with a shocking twist, unleashing mental warfare like never before.
