AntFTW August 8 Author Share August 8 (edited) I can't stand Amanda. She makes no sense 99% of the time... but the drama she brings is hilarious. Amanda "making up" Cara and her noting that they both hate Tori is funny. Edited August 8 by AntFTW Link to comment
Lantern7 August 8 Share August 8 This season will be epic. Or it'll be a raging dumpster fire. There will be no in-between. Lovely how they covered so many of the older (re: pre-TJ) seasons. I'm amused they got a framed shot of Brad getting a wedgie. Good times. 2 Link to comment
UniqBlue69 August 8 Share August 8 I couldn't stand her at one time, but Verantula (TM someone brilliant) defined the first few seasons of The Challenge. Era I doesn't seem complete without her. Was she unavailable? Link to comment

AntFTW August 8 Author Share August 8 Was Josh even in this launch special? I don’t recall seeing him at all. 😂 1 Link to comment
jsm1125 August 9 Share August 9 Wonder why certain people (Jodi, Aviv, Brandon, Nehemiah, Avery, Kyland, Josh) were purple in this? “Cara buried her horse, so maybe it’s time to bury the hatchet” is an insane quote I never thought I’d hear anyone say. I think it’s a shame that Ashley Mitchell isn’t on this season. She was a major part of era 3. I’m going to assume that Kam and Jenna were asked but declined. 2 Link to comment

Kam just had a second baby, so she probably couldn't. Away from one baby last time was probably hard enough, let alone two. Jenna probably couldn't get out of crazy's clutches long enough. Wasn't her last season the one where he told her if she didn't leave the game and come home right away, he was tossing her stuff out in the yard? Imagine that with two kids now. No thanks. 5 Link to comment

Not that it’s important, but Zach and Jenna have 3 children now. Jenna had the newest in February 2024. (This is just an excuse to post their announcement, because it was cute.)

AntFTW August 9 Author Share August 9 (edited) Aviv says she was an alternate so I wonder who she replaced. 20 minutes ago, bunnyface said: Jenna probably couldn't get out of crazy's clutches long enough.

I think Jenna is currently pregnant. They either have a third baby on the way or maybe she already had the baby... but I do recall them announcing a baby #3. See @Remlab's post above 😂 Edited August 9 by AntFTW 1 Link to comment
Jobiska August 9 Share August 9 I thought the scene of CM and Laurel talking at the party cutting back and forth to Paulie's talking head was funny because, continuing the trend of a decade or so of increasingly weird asymmetrical necklines and straps (at least on things like Big Brother and the Challenge), Laurel's red dress and Paulie's tank top were dueling in the weird neckline/strap Olympics. I mean, I kind of get them picking out something that looks interesting from the waist up because of the talking head interviews, but someday someone's going to accidentally strangle themselves getting into or out of one of those tops! Anyone know what Kam and Leroy's 2nd kid is named? What cuties! The whole "really big false eyelashes on reality shows" thing seemed to come along around the same time as the weird tops, but Amanda's looked like no-orange woolly bear caterpillars! I always think it's weird on shows like this and BB where you sometimes see them with the lashes and sometimes not, because it looks like something is wrong with them when they are just getting up in the morning and look lashless! (the weirdest was Azah after a challenge on USA with her lashes stuck to her thigh though...). Where is this being filmed? Link to comment

aghst August 11 Share August 11 Emily is going to be interesting. She’s living in a van? She should have done more challenges, especially when the money got big. CT looks like he gained weight since his last appearance. His first season was 8 and now he’s in season 40? He’s either over 50 or close to it. A lot of nostalgia in the house. Kind of cool of B-M to pull those together. Wonder who the missing challenger is. Guess they want him or her to make some big entrance a few eps in. Maybe Jordan. Leroy is doing another season right after coming out of “retirement” for All-Stars 4. Hope they aren’t counting on Challenge prize money to finance raising those kids. 1 Link to comment

mojoween August 12 Share August 12 Kam and LeRoy produce hella adorable babies my lord. The little boy is LeRoy’s clone. Starting now because I’m sure my cup will runneth over by the end of the season but - shut up, Paul. And Cara doesn’t need you to speak for her. Old Christoper is fine. But young Christopher? Every time I see him it’s all Hubba HUBBA. 1 Link to comment
