Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Fresh Meat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Filmed in Australia, the Fresh Meat features one team of Real World and Road Rules alumni paired with a team of newcomers to the Challenge. Two person teams will be formed, one will come from the group of alumni from the show and one from the group of new competitors. One of the main reasons for enlisting the "Fresh Meat" is the fact that no new seasons of Road Rules have been produced since 2004.
