  1. The episode gains so much with the edited footage. Certainly makes more sense to me now why Bayleigh destroyed Dee's life. It's not the first time things have bled outside a season (various cheating ending outside relationships), but it feels like the most dramatic. I bet MTV wished to elimination went a different way.
  2. Just for the train wreck aspect I wish they combined Kate with Duct Tape Boy and the Canadian vet who imploded after one day, all into one tribe. I fear Makani isn't going to make it the whole way, and it will be sad day when she's gone for several of us. SS13 is my hero for tracking down that picture
  3. I don't remember his origin episode (other than the MF duct tape) but he seemed completely worthless in this setting.
  4. SS13, is it just me? Or does Gwen (redhead ex-cop) seems like she could be Knight's (RW/The Challenge) aunt. They speak the same, they both have trouble keeping their eyes open, the have the same slow laid-back personality. I enjoyed the watch party show way more than I was expecting. Jake is always good for a laugh, and by far the most self aware contestant on the series.
  5. Pluto has been running The Challenge 24/7 non-stop for weeks. Mostly the past 6-7 years, but some older stuff as well. I had forgotten that Laurel was that shitty of a person every damn season.
  6. They got engaged around New Year's if I remember right. Considering we think this season was filming during Halloween, pretty safe to assume things worked out okay after she got back.
  7. Aneesa seems to have finally gained some perspective after all these years, but she still sucks as a competitor. Amazing to remember she pulled Cory at one time... Speaking of which, he seems much more tolerable now than any previous season I can remember. Nelson is and always will be an idiot.
  8. Did anyone else notice they're in the Czech Republic? I don't think that had come out before. Not sure why MTV is hiding the location the last few seasons.
  9. I liked how the water was at 60F for the first team, and 51F for the last team. Not much of a level playing field. When they went to break with Nelson being hauled off I was wondering if they would just pull the plug, or set a 10 minute time limit. Nope. I guess gloves were the only concession to this maybe not being the most well thought out challenge they've had. Why didn't Ashley make any attempt to influence who she faced off against? Obviously Bananas wouldn't have been receptive, but the other four might have been. I'm with Go Pokes, Ashley has always seemed like a paper tiger to me who has lucked out a couple times and thinks it's because she's just so wonderful.
  10. I was actually more surprised CT won the challenge than I was that he lost the elimination. He's strong, but not stronger than chains. He's so out of shape at this point it's just sad, and he's promised to come back in better condition before. Hasn't happened yet. I've liked him once he got through his "angry sucker-punch people in the face" phase in the 2000's. But as he became a better mental player his physical game has suffered, more than it had to just from age. Didn't have any exposure to Jay before this season, but seems to have skills. I wonder who he takes out next week. Dee is a psycho. Previous female psychos (like Camilla) used it as a really annoying tool in the game. I'm with Go Pokes, I don't think she has any plan at all.
  11. People watch the Challenge, it happens to be on MTV.
  12. She has be hoping there's a "sit on your opponent and don't let them up" elimination at some point. I feel like they hid the weight gain in the first episode, but there was no hiding it on the run up the hill.
  13. Are we sure she's not Kam's american cousin?
  14. Is it wrong that I was rooting for her to fail? She sucks when she's alone, and is probably top five worst in group/partner interactions. Are we sure she and Cara Maria aren't related somehow?
  15. The jump/swing from suspended storage containers down and back challenge. He was terrible and then a bunch of the females finished it after his epic fail.
  16. I haven't read TOL's spoilers so forgive me if this is covered... Back when they regularly had full team finals, didn't you have to bring EVERYONE to the finish line or it didn't count? I can't forget them dragging Big Easy's bloated corpse to the finish years ago when leaving him would have guaranteed the win. So isn't leaving Pauli behind a disqualification for Team US?
  17. Cara needs to sell her horse and hire an actual therapist. Last night was the final capper for me on just what a miserable person she has become. Her issues aren't new, and I don't blame Paulie (Abram was much worse of a person) but she really needs help, and nobody in her life is providing it effectively. She hates everyone, and has become bad television in the process, kind of of what Camilla had turned into by the end. Jordan can be a little grating, but I'm happy for him and Tori. They seem to really like each other. As opposed to Josh who will fall in love with any girl at the drop of a hat.
  18. Bananas is now 2-8 in eliminations (1-7 if you throw out Champs vs Stars) since he screwed Sarah out of the money. Completely agree that Zach has followed the CT mold of calming down. Hopefully Josh won't be around long enough to wait for his change. I'm convinced Bear is just an actor they hired. He's a completely different person than last season. I like him this time,but it's kind of like Devin. He's SO aware of playing the long game to get screen time, but keep coming back for years. He just chose Wes to start with since going after Bananas is kind of a played out storyline by now. I wouldn't mind Tony back. But a break from Shane/ the Young Bucks has been really nice. Laurel came in as horrible person years ago (tearing viciously into Paula, Cara, Big Easy, etc. Banging CT, Jordan, insert Alpha here, etc) and she never grew up. Kam has become more likeable each season.
  19. I found this nugget on cool dude Jeff. https://www.localnews8.com/news/kifi-top-story/pocatello-man-sentenced-for-insurance-fraud/58253016 My apologies if it's been covered before, XL4 is the first time I've seen Jeff.
  20. Now that Kam and Josh are both gone I can turn the volume back up. Why did they both yell ALL THE TIME...? I'm not a big Paulie fan, but he has done an amazing job making a name for himself in the franchise. Compare his arc to the wasted life that was Dario a few years ago.
  21. At the risk of being redundant, I've also joined the anti-Cara camp for the first time. It seems like after her big win a couple seasons ago, she changed. Underdog Cara was easy to root for, entitled Cara is almost as bad as Camilla was at this point.
  22. No Nelson, no Shane, no Devin, no Camilla makes for a far more watchable show. They all try too hard to create moments that will get them airtime. I'd be okay with Amanda taking a few seasons off as well.
  23. I'm going to have to add Camilla and Coral to that list. I don't miss either one of them.
  24. I agree 100%. I probably spent 15 minutes total watching it after FF through women just screaming at each other. The old reunions (mostly) calmly rehashed stuff, and showed unseen footage. It seem like the past 4-5 seasons it's just been a chance for people to scream and audition for the next season.
