01The take
The Gauntlet III.
A closer to the Gauntlet-branded era of the franchise.
02The shape of the season
A rhythm worth tracking.
The third Gauntlet, a Veterans versus Rookies split for the second time, and a deliberate return to the franchise-defining elimination round. The cast list reads like a survey of the late-2000s era. The missions take the show out of its usual American-southwest pocket, with TJ Lavin hosting the elimination room with the steady register the franchise had settled into. A closer to the Gauntlet-branded era.
03Where it sits in the canon
The #15 slot.
Slot #15 of 40 in the The Challenge Editor's Canon. The seasons on either side show what I ranked it against.
