  1. Just to wrap up the season:

    1. I need Jay and Michelle to come back about as much as I need Aneesa to come back.

    2. Big T and Melissa have gotten more annoying as seasons go on.

    3. Olivia may have had the single biggest drop in likability/marketability in one season ever. Don't need her back either.

    4. Moriah is going to be good for one solid (but dumb) showmance a season. Early-stage Nani vibes.

    5. Horacio needs to find some clue of a social game.

    6. Nurys should be on every season for the next 6-8 years.

    they used to just throw some balls into a mud pit or a shallow pool at the bottom of a soapy waterslide and then tell them to go all lord of the flies on each other for the balls. now it’s like, “stand on a platform over the water and do a puzzle while your opponent does the same thing on a separate platform”. like, how did we get here?

    You can't overestimate how much the single gender-neutral champion aspect weakened this season. They went super heavy on puzzles to eliminate the physical differences. In the end a guy still won it.

    I'm pretty sure Bananas said he flat out told production he won't do Hall Brawl, others have echoed that. So last season we got the two story "Hall Push" thing instead where Ravyn lost here shoe.  

    Also insurance...

    the people on this season suck, from the whiny, mopey, hypersensitive gen z losers like kyland and corey, to the rest of this love island cast who somehow took a wrong turn and ended up on the challenge. i like horacio and olivia just fine, and im rooting for Ed who i really like. the rest of this cast is straight up boring, and the show has become more about the casts love lifes and personal feelings than it has resembling anything close to the OG challenges. i’ve fast forwarded 90% of the last three episodes and i don’t think i’ve missed anything.

    also, jay and michelle are the new faces of the challenge? why? her voice makes me want to jam pencils in my ears, and jay is some weak ass fan boy who brings nothing to the show. i suppose one of them will be the eventual winner seeing as mtv has put the two of them front and center this entire season. ugh. what have they done to my favorite reality show? these people would get eaten alive on a real season with the likes of CT, Bananas, Abram, Darrell, Landon, Zach, Frank, Coral, Evelyn, Emily, Cara, Camila, etc. these people are wanna be famous flowers who do nothing for me. i hate it so much.

    also, Brad is one intense, weird dude. he freaks me out.

    Is it just me, or did Brad's voice completely change? i swear he didn't sound like himself. Not just softer, but...different.

    I completely agree with the un-interesting quality of most of the cast. They talk endlessly to fill the 90 minutes, and it's so repetitious. 

    If the veterans had done what they were supposed to and sent people home, the show would have moved along better. Still boring people, but at least things would go somewhere.

    I fear the final may suck. TJ keeps teasing only one new champion, so it can't be that physical.

    I use dark mode, so whenever someone copy/pastes without knowing how, it looks like shit.

    I’m fairly certain this was not the first site you posted that reply. 

    Nope. Direct typing into desktop Windows 10 PC in the most current Google Chrome browser. No other sites /copy & paste / mobile browser/ etc. I like that you analyze things, but this time it's wrong.

  5. I can't ever remember a final that easy.  As soon as TJ started talking about 1 minute penalties I knew this was going to be easy. No 5-10 minute penalties, no 15-30 minute time-outs on tasks. Everything took just a couple minutes.

    Happy for Desi after getting screwed over by her partner in the first season.

    Chris definitely put in the most work this season, Fessy put in the least. Always fun to watch him fail.

    Did you hear Cory has kids?

  6. Josh stabs Wes in the back, feels terrible, crys, wishes he could take it back, feels he sold his sole.

    Josh stabs Bananas in the back, feels terrible, crys, wishes he could take it back, feels he sold his sole.

    Talk about a fool who learns no lessons.

    I agree on both points about Cassidy. I'd like to see her back in future seasons.

    They had a sitdown afterwards? I missed that. Wonder if Hulu has it on demand.

    Maybe I phrased it poorly. I meant when Andrew got them both together to make "peace" a little bit later in the episode. 

    I don't think they've had any kind of reunion show since the start of the pandemic.

    They tried every editing trick in the book to make the finale a little more dramatic. 

    Ol’ girl Kerra certainly wasn’t celebrating in the boat though, she was kinda green. 

    The whole argument and sit down afterwards felt scripted to me. Maybe I'm too cynical, but they (the show) seemed to be trying desperately to make something seem interesting in the finale. You would think they had to leap over a flaming chasm of fire during the hike based on the comments, instead of stepping maybe 18 inches to the other side. 

    I liked the season a lot, but the final felt a little underwhelming.

    Peace, Dusty. 

    Please let’s not turn this into a Cory v. Wes kid-yapping battle. 

    Wait, Cory has a kid? 😁

    I get that 37 seconds is kind of close, but it seemed like everyone thought Wes was gone. That was definitely an elimination where going first was a disadvantage. I was shocked he couldn't see to skip the attempt with the first wheel immediately. Or at least listen to Bananas and skip wasting the time trying to twist it.

    "Nothing"

    Discovery bought a bunch of random shit to help them off ebay and dropped it in the area lol

    Seems a bit convenient that each team discovery one of a Jeep, plane or boat.
