Battle of the Seasons (2002)
Yes the 2002 version of Battle of the Seasons. The ORIGINAL and SUPERIOR of the two formats. Back in the day the Challenge as a whole was simpler. This Challenge pretty much epitomizes that aspect. It was strictly Real World versus Road Rules, the inner circle was still in place, and the Final Mission was a 6 on 6 race to the finish line, with the SUPERIOR Real World team coming out on top.
I honestly don't even know why I have this so high on my list, I just remember when I first got into the Challenge as a whole I went back and watched it and just loved all of the characters at the time. Theo, Timmy, and Holly B were my favorites from Road Rules, and Mike, Coral, Norman, and BETH (tho she only lasted an episode =[) were my favorites from the Real World. Just seeing Mike and Coral and their dynamics together (they are legit like brother and sister, go back and watch) was so entertaining to me.
All in all I just HAD to include this in my top 10 because the older seasons get no love and at the time of this premiering it was probably the best Challenge to date....or was it? :O Tune in to find out ;)
