28 CBS REALITY TITANS COMPETE IN THE MOST UNPREDICTABLE AND DEMANDING GAME OF THEIR LIVES, ON THE SPECIAL 90-MINUTE SEASON PREMIERE OF MTV PRESENTS "THE CHALLENGE: USA," WEDNESDAY, JULY 6 ON CBS
"The United States of Challenge" - Host and BMX legend TJ Lavin welcomes 28 competitors from CBS' SURVIVOR, BIG BROTHER, THE AMAZING RACE and LOVE ISLAND to the most grueling and demanding game of their lives, on the special 90-minute season premiere of MTV presents THE CHALLENGE: USA, Wednesday, July 6 (9:30-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+*.
Upon arrival in Argentina, the CBS reality titans are given $1,000 to start their individual "challenge accounts," and quickly discover they must battle to grow their winnings for a chance to compete in the finale. In their first challenge, the competitors rappel down the side of a 22-story building in pairs while attempting to memorize a math equation. With old rivalries, new alliances, messy exes and fractured friendships all under one roof, who will be the first pair eliminated?
Following the Network's 90-minute premiere, the inaugural broadcast of MTV's hit reality global franchise will air Wednesdays (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT). Plus, in addition to competing for the $500,000 grand prize, the cast of THE CHALLENGE: USA will be competing for a spot on THE CHALLENGE: GLOBAL CHAMPIONSHIP (working title), which will stream exclusively on Paramount+, further highlighting Paramount's strategy of leveraging its popular franchises across the company's global platforms.
