Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Island is the sixteenth season of the reality television competition series, Real World/Road Rules Challenge. The challenge takes place in Bocas del Toro Province, Panama for broadcast on MTV Networks in the fall of 2008
The format will differ from the more recent incarnations of the series in that it will involve fasting to some degree in a Survivor inspired setting on an island in Panama. The cast was told not to bring electrically powered items such as blow dryers and curling irons as they would not be of use once on location.
Principle filming is slated to take place from June 10th through July 11th, 2008. The cast departed through the major Latin American hubs of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport and Miami International Airport on June 8th, 2008 to Tocumen International Airport, Panama where they boarded a small commuter aircraft en route to their final island destination.

This cast list seems to be legit. In the preview video, I did see Tonya, Kenny, Johnny, Derrick, Dave, Kelly Anne, Johanna, and Paula. This looks to be the most intense challenge I have ever heard of.

So, hopefully this is the season where they realize this show and no one on it since The Miz has been entertaining and they are going to leave them on an island for the rest of time?

Still a bit suprised that only Dave from Hollywood is on this. Still, one of my favorite "reality" shows... will definitely watch.

He was the only reason I ever watched those stupid challenges. There was nothing entertaining about them other then seeing Mike, Miz out.

I saw the preview this morning, it looks really good. I am looking forward to it, I wish more Hollywood people were on it like Bri. I think she would do really good at the challenges.

Now, this is just mild speculation on my part.
A former alumnus of these challenges told me via myspace that MTV has a 'list' of cast members that they consider to be 'tier 1' cast members.
The list basically is composed of Coral, Rachel (Campus Crawl), Veronica, Tonya, Trishelle, The Miz, Alton, Timmy, Mark, Annessa, and other veterans who have brought a certain amount of drama to the challenge.
Now that Trishelle, The Miz, Timmy, and Mark are 'retired' from the challenges, they have to fill in those spots with different cast members from different seasons.
But let's say Timmy comes out of 'retirement', calls up John Murray, and says "I want to do the next challenge", MTV will probably put him on the show over someone from a new season. It's loyality to the people who helped bulit the show.
There is not many Hollywood people because:
A. They want to debut the Sidney cast B. Rachel (Campus Crawl), Abe, Derrick, and Robin are probably hogging up most of the spots for Hollywood cast members.
And MTV.com did a poll a while back asking the fans what series of cast members should be on the challenge. Many voted Fresh Meat (which hog up even more spots) and many shockingly voted for Viewer Revenge Cast members (you can thank Torie for that).
From what I hear, Jillian and Frank are 80% done with challenges. Jillian told me herself.

Just another reality show that's ran it's course. I really enjoyed this in the beginning but every season it gets worse and worse.
I wish they'd drop the challenge and bring back Road Rules...3 guys, 3 girls..travel around in a winnie and do challenges...no voting off, no changing cast members mid-way through..just old school RR.

When Road Rules started doing the eliminations, that's when people started liking it better. Katie replaced Jisela on their Road Rules season... Katie is one of the most popular on these challenges.

The Real World/Road Rules challenge idea actually happend in 1997 during The Real World: Boston season.
Road Rules: The Islands played a practical joke on The Real World Boston cast. Producers then set up a 'face off' where they competed for cash and prizes. This brought in insane ratings and the next year... we had Real World/Road Rules challenge: All-Stars.
