Most Extreme Elimination Challenge (Magisteria)

Most Extreme Elimination Challenge (MXC) is a Magisterian comedy television game show that currently airs on Extreme. Originally ran from September 24, 2005 to May 9, 2015 after the success of the original American dubbed version of Takeshi's Castle in the channel; the show was revived on 17 September 2022. The localisation of MXC works the same way as the American one, created a completely new premise, storyline, and characters, with two teams competing against each other à la a typical team sports broadcast and players trying to win points for their teams by surviving through different challenges, with the exception of dubbing as all episodes were all new and fresh.

Most Extreme Elimination Challenge was co-produced by Neotoric Entertainment, the main producers for The Morgan Brice Surreal Ass Masterpiece of a Damn Show, and the American RC Entertainment, Inc. (Paul Abeyta and Peter Kaikko), the creators of MXC from 2005 to 2007.

Episodes
The premise of the localisation of Most Extreme Elimination Challenge is a game show that is hosted by the eccentric characters Mr. Sanders (Vincent Strange) and Donny Cockburn (Julian Dukes), along with the field marshal and a male prostitute during his break time Capt. Waller (Tony Woodrow) and the field reporter and a lipstick lesbian Wendy Cory (Melantha Jephson).

Usually, two or three teams of contestants compete in several turn-based and head-to-head challenges. Most other competitive teams do not truly have a real-life rivalry, while others Left-Wingers vs. Right-Wingers do.

The contestants compete in a variety of challenges, usually four per episode, but occasionally as many as six. The challenges are extremely hard, and a majority of the contestants fail to complete the challenges. Throughout the show, painful failures to complete challenges are reviewed by Sanders and Donny in the "MXC Impact Replay", which is essentially a sports-themed playback feature. Occasionally, the Impact Replay is used for Donny's pleasure - Julian Dukes conceived the character of Donny Cockburn to be a hypersexual individual - in looking at the female contestants.

While the basic premise of MXC is that of a legitimate game show, its true premise is that of a comedy not intended to be taken literally.

Revival
In 2019, Vincent Strange stated that he has interest on doing an eleventh season. In 2022, Stranger confirmed that the eleventh season will happen. The revival season would premiere on 17 September 2022, with an audience of over 5 million watching the premiere. The show was renewed for a twelfth season, set to premiere on 29 July 2023.

Reception
On it's premiere night, MXC scored the highest premiere rating of any show in Extreme's night line up in 2005. Thanks to the largely positive reception of the show, it was renewed for a second season. The second season premiered on 22 July 2006, and with an audience of over 6 million, MXC bested its first season average and gave Extreme its best numbers in the Saturday 9:00 p.m. slot
