  1. I was spoiled on the winner a couple of weeks back. He’s okay. He said he tried not to go all out throughout the season to avoid being seen as a bigger threat. And to be honest, his performance in the final does lend some credence to that. Glad the season is finally over.
  2. The producers want Jay or Michelle to win. That repelling challenge was tailor made for Jay, the known rock climber. And a couple episodes ago there was a puzzle that was eerily similar to ones Michelle had won on Survivor. What a crock! I’ve never seen an episode where the top 3 favorites to win went home. Switching from only one of the 3 going home in elimination to now 2 was absolutely bullshit! I’m still not crazy about Nurys either, and she has zero shot of winning a final where water will almost certainly be involved. All drama has been removed from the season. Only 3 players left have been in an elimination, I think. Michelle is the best realistic option to win. Jay would be disgusting. Fucking rat.
  3. Best episode of the season, by far. I loved everything about the conquest portion of the game. Last in the daily is purged, awesome! Schoolyard pick, great, although they should be forced to do it immediately, so as to not meticulously plan it out. Lastly, finally no more peanut gallery in the elimination! Horacio beating Kyland on the puzzles definitely surprised me a bit. He’s probably leapfrogged back to being the favorite in the final, though it will be close between him and Ed if they are both there. Fuck Jay. That is all.
  4. I think Ed,Michelle, and Kyland are the favorites to win right now. I know it’s difficult to read the edit on this show, but Jay’s is not favorable for a win. IMO. I really like Ed. I would not mind him being a semi-regular contestant if this show continues. I’m pretty sure he has a real job, so we’ll see if he continues to appear. Asaf is a prime example of one of the problems with newer contestants on this show. He’s not being authentic. He’s clearly playing a character and being over the top cocky and making grandiose statements and trying to create drama in an attempt to be cast for future seasons.
  5. This season is going to necessitate the return of the skulls. So sick of seeing the same people go into elimination. If they’re not going to make it mandatory to win an elimination to make the final, they need to go back to last place in the daily automatically going in. They also need to go back to anonymous voting. Having them go against champions has dragged this shitty season on way too long. If I didn’t know any better I’d say the producers favored the younger Champs(Devin/Tori/Kaycee) and gave them advantageous eliminations compared to the older ones. Honestly, would probably prefer an Ed or Kyland win over Horacio at this point if it’s a male winner. That dude just doesn’t bring any personality to the show. Great competitor. But I don’t think I can remember a contestant who is clearly a contender to win that just won’t give the producers anything to work with.
  6. It’s clear given these eliminations, the producers want the new crop of Challengers to beat the veterans. Outside of Jordan and Devin, none of these eliminations have really been catered to the vets. Maybe Tori too. I get it, they want new, cheaper blood. Michelle is clearly their new darling. She does basically what Tori has done, become friends with a large group of people outside of the show and use it as cover during the season. Which isn’t exactly a new phenomenon, but there is a lack of rogues who can upset and destroy their plans the way a Jordan or Evelyn or CT could. Horacio could be that, but he’s way too passive in the game. Ed and Horacio continue to be the only semi-acceptable winners for me.
  7. It had to be just a cost saving measure. Just thinking of how many non-champions who have come close and never been able to get over the hump, it’s crazy how much better it could have been.
  8. Horacio and maybe Ed are the only acceptable winners at this point. The only ones whose victory would seem legitimate and not because of a weak cast. The peanut gallery being able to help out during eliminations continues to be bullshit. The best part of the episode was about something that didn’t even end up happening, which speaks to the quality of this season, or lack there of. Laurel is my all-time favorite Challenger. She brings everything to the table. Crazy? Check! Great competitor? Check! Attractive? Check! Total package.
  9. The cast has come out and questioned the edit of the elimination. Made it seem like production changed the rules after Jordan lost the first two rounds(it was best of 5, not 3). Supposedly the lights went from automated to manually lit after there was a malfunction. Ciarran claims that he was also waiting at a lit up light to drain the time down, but the producers would shut it off quicker for him. They all say Jordan won, but question the way it was edited and how it was portrayed.
  10. Wes and the Survivor women are the only ones I care about. I just don’t like the Big Brother players, never have. The Amazing Race doesn’t really produce the type of players who can succeed at The Challenge. So I’m obviously glad Wes is still in it, even though it’s odd that Wes thought he lost. Did we ever find out if the law that is supposed to prevent game shows being rigged applies to shows like this? I’m sure Dusty would be making a huge fuss if he truly felt he won. At least this version of trivia didn’t include any sabotage. You miss, you’re penalized for it. I hate when a player or team can literally not miss a single question and still lose.
  11. It should be pointed out that eliminations and challenges are highly edited. Case in point, supposedly Bananas had 5 mores bags when Paulie threw his final one, but the show made it seem like Bananas had thrown all of his already. Edit: I should’ve read all of the posts, as I’ve seen this was already stated.
  12. He lost to Fessy in pole wrestle. That just wasn’t fair. In ‘Ride Or Dies’ he was bad in dailies and was eliminated before being brought back and ended up blowing the final by losing to Bananas in ‘Balls In’. To me he seemed checked out because of his partner.
  13. I’m assuming every time they don’t show half of a final it’s because one team was dominating and they want to make it appear like it was close. But then again, the producers don’t reward people who win a leg with much of a lead. A team could have a 30+ minute lead and it will be reduced to a minute. Jordan and Kaz were the heavy favorites going in and once Kaycee started having issues the writing was on the wall. Jordan now has won 4 of his 9 seasons. A person on Reddit has that as the highest winning percentage of any player with 5+ seasons. Coming off of his worst season, it was a good rebound for him. I think he’s proven that as an individual, he’s probably the best in finals, though CT’s ability with puzzles and math is an equalizer. It’s a shame CT wasn’t in good shape on Dirty 30, as that was the only individual final that they competed against each other in. I’ve had enough of pairs seasons. Give me large teams or individual seasons for a couple of years. And please keep automatically sending the last place finisher in a daily into elimination.
  14. I like asshole Jordan more than fake Jordan. There I said it. LOL. The only person I really give a damn about that is left, although I don’t mind Yes and Theo.
  15. All of the stuff with the “poachers” and Russians is so obviously scripted. I don’t really watch for that kind of thing. I understand why they do it. They need drama. It’s the same reason every boat always seems to catch a ton of crab right when they need it most, usually at the end of the season.
