S05.E03: Rivals in the Ruff


Recommended Posts

I'm not feeling invested. Or maybe it was because I read a synopsis of next week's episode, so I knew Steve and Adam were safe, and that Adam wasn't going to keel over and die on his partner. Knowing BMP, Steve would have to go home because they didn't bring in any substitutes.

Sylvia is still a bitch, in every sense of the word.

Smashley still sucks, and I can't feel bad about her having Aneesa for a partner. I also forgot that you can't do a dumb Southerner accent when dealing with Smashley, because she can buy you and sell you many times over. Just ask her.

Frank is still an asshole. I don't feel bad for him having a partner that gasses out as easily as Sam.

The 60 minute episodes have so much better pacing than the 90-minutes ones.  You get to the House vote without too much drama, then to the Jungle and they get down to it.  Unfortunately I don’t think Matt has given up on the 90 minute ones.

Some of the personality clashes are entertaining.  The house vote ganging up is tiresome.

Yeah Ashley must have expected to win more money but she sees Aneesa not trying to train nor win Dailies.

I had forgotten that the episodes are shorter until someone pointed it out. While watching it I thought it was strange that we didn't see any discussion about who was going into elimination. If the season is going to be Adam and Steve going into elimination over and over, it's going to be super boring. Wasn't this season going to be aired on MTV because it was so good? Not starting out too good for me. In fact, I still wish this was on paramount unedited. 

Editing made it clear that Devin and Leroy were going to win the challenge, and that Kelly Anne and Sylvia or Aneesa and Ashley were in jeopardy. Frank is insufferable. Usually I can appreciate a villain, but he just seems obnoxious. 

The preview suggests there will be a star holder shakeup. Ready for things to get interesting.

* bring back the hopper or at least some form of anonymous voting so there is some hope for less of a "the group is going this way so I will too" boring voting

* the set up creates no incentive to try that hard in dailies unless you have a real shot at winning. It's all or nothing with no negative to finishing last. it would be better if there was some incentive to finish at least top 3 or to stay out of the bottom
