According to Variety, filming for The Challenge: All Stars began in February 2021. With just nine episodes instead of the typical 16- or 18-episode season, this special season of All Stars is more fast-paced. And, since filming started in February 2021, the season likely took a shorter amount of time to shoot than others in the past.

If this iteration of The Challenge does as well and gains as much traction among fans both new and old as the first two seasons did, then there's even the chance there will be even more all-star specials in the future. Until then, though, viewers can enjoy watching old dogs get back in the game.
