Challenge Guide Update

Just a quick update - I was originally planning on releasing the first part of the updated challenge guide (which, as you'll no doubt remember from when I shoved the details in the blurb for the Amazing Race guide, is going to be a single-format with shows uploaded in stages rather than all at once) in the next week or so, but that's not going to happen.

Basically, the first batch of seasons I was planning on uploading were the civilian seasons of The Apprentice US, the first few years of Big Brother UK, and a section of The Challenge - three long-running shows I haven't really done anything with on this blog yet, and where better to start than with ABC? - but in keeping with the blog's updated subtitle (the reasons for which should go without saying), there's going to be a change of plans. I'll still be starting with some long-running shows, yes, but the line-up has changed somewhat. Instead:

• The first third of Big Brother UK (five seasons, plus four spinoff seasons)
• The first quarter of The Biggest Loser US (four seasons)
• The first third of The Challenge (nine seasons)
• The first third of Masterchef Australia (two seasons, plus two spinoff seasons)
• All of The Mole US (five seasons)
• The first third of Ninja Warrior Japan (eleven specials, plus two spinoff specials)
• The first fifth of Project Runway (four seasons)

The good news is I'm about half a celebrity season away from finishing the Big Brother section, and a lot of what's left just needs to be reformatted from old drafts on my computer. The bad news is it's still a lot of work, and it's probably still going to be at least another month or so away. Apologies for the delay.
