Rivals Ratings: Most Watched Episode in Two Years

Last Wednesday's episode, moving the cast from Costa Rica to Argentina, and teasing the Final Jungle (which we spoil in an earlier post), has been the most watched episode of The Real World/Road Rules Challenge in the last two years.

2.057 million people watched as CT (Paris) and Adam (Paris) were put up against Johnny (Key West) and Tyler (Key West). In fact, Rivals has posted impressive gains, improving its average ratings 14% over last season's Cutthroat.

This is excellent news, as MTV has not yet posted word on whether or not they will renew the Challenge after this season. The last episode to post these kind of numbers was when 2.188 million people tuned in and watch Brad (San Diego) defeat Landon (Philadelphia) in the last duel of The Duel II.
