Rumor was Jordan got a 2 year ban because of the Nia fight from The Real World. He said he wouldn't be on the same with Tori cause he would get the bad guy edit, since she is a production favorite. I agree though, he's my favorite competitor, so I wish he would come back.

Abram was a lunatic, and I loved it. Lol

I loved Abe without CM but their love was too gross

Everything about CM was gross, at the end.

That’s the great thing about the challenge - you get to see so many peoples “characters” evolve over time. Some good. Some horrid. CM was horrid. Loved her in the beginning - a likeable slightly awkward try hard underdog. Somewhere along the way she transformed into this entitled, sloppy, ass.

And they need to leave Emy alone if that’s true. She’s good for the show. Besides she probably just used that word for her mother and her grandmother.

Cara was favorite female forever, watching her go from weirdo, bullied, underdog to challenge beast was a fun watch. Her turning into the weirdo, bully, untitled azzhole was not fun to watch. Lol

I mean the logical thing to do would be educate Emy on why the word is bad, and let her grow from it. Especially if it's not a known as a bad thing in Romania.

Is there a reason CM hasn't been on the show a while?

Rumor was Paulie failed the psych test, they still wanted Cara and she said she was going unless he could. Then they have basically just been idiots and probably on the no call list. Saying production fixed it for Bananas the last time he won, that CM got banned so Tori could win, and a bunch of other crap. Sex Island or whatever that thing was a couple months back probably doesnt help either. Lol

So who you guys got tonight? I think the only way CT loses if it goes back to individual is their team loses the next leg and Devin eliminates him in a puzzle, and that's about a 50/50 shot of Devin beating him. If they lose and he wins, he's too good on puzzles for Nelly and Kyle to win. If his team wins, he beats Devin with endurance and puzzles being equal. If there is eating the other 3 are super ****ed. If it goes pairs, which I think is most likely, the only way he loses is he gets Nany and Devin gets Tori or Kaycee, and Nany falls over. Even then probably 80/20 that he would still win. Devins cardio is hot garbage.

Girls I wanna say Tori individual, she's not the smartest but infinitely smarter than these 3 dummies, and can keep pace with Kaycee running. If it goes pairs which ever of Tori/Kaycee/Emy gets CT, they win easily. Nany see above. If CT gets eliminated, which I almost hope, things get trickier. Nelly+Tori VS Devin+Kaycee would be interesting. Basically Toris puzzle skills VS Devins endurance and both kind of suck.

Sidenote: everyone always wants rid of Ashley but if she was here and it went pairs, her and either Nelly or Kyle would have a good chance at winning, everyone always wants Kam but Ashley is a better version of Kam.

There was no point in trying to win any checkpoint except the final one. Kaycee and Kyle benefited from sucking in 85% of the final.

It's how it goes. You get the duel for being behind, and then winning the duel gets you an advantage. That's how Bananas beat Fessy a few years back.

Kaycee really only sucked at the wire puzzle. She finished 5/8 on the first individual leg and 2/2 on the 4-man team leg. Her weakness is puzzles and she got unlucky with her team* and then got lucky with the duel advantage. Them's the breaks.

The competitions have sucked the last couple of seasons. I'm over it.

*not only all being bad at puzzles, but Nelson was sabotaging them, LOL.

Classy the little speech TJ gave Nelson.

The Nany/Kaycee elimination sad fest was lame. I could go without Nany for a while. Same story with her every time. Kinda coasts to the end but never a real threat to actually win.

Cringe how hard Devin kept trying to refer to himself along with everyone in the final as a power house or a challenge legend. Listen I’ve been a Devin fan from the start but he annoyed me this season and he is what he is - good at politics but not a legend or powerhouse. If it isn’t a puzzle, he’s gonna lose 90% of anything physical.

Stoked CT won. Equally stoked Devin came in last.

Stoked Kaycee won with CT after last season Fessy disrespected his name so much, then bitched out in the final.

Hate that this season is over. I’m such a fan. As a 44 year old father of three, I’m hardly their demographic. But I’ve been watching for probably 20 years and I just can’t quit it.

Last thought for now - next season drop the agent or whatever themed forced lingo. Nothing is gained from calling them agents instead of challengers. It’s just corny.

They've forgotten who they are with all this gimmick **** and over-producing everything. Just put capable reality stars into cool competitions and stressful situations in a beautiful location and the rest takes care of itself.

Curious what everyone’s thoughts on Devins season? He on multiple occasions referred to it as a flawless season.

It’s been a long one so I can’t remember every move. For example I can’t even remember if he was in an elimination prior to that last one with pirate Jordan.

I thought his attempted manipulation of Tori was bad. And he obviously made it to the final but he also benefitted from being on a loaded team much of the season.

Just curious what anyone else thinks.

And again - props to the GOAT CT. Incredible.

I honestly thought he should’ve retired after the Invasion of the Champs season. That was his second win. Instead he got fat and happy for a few years and was a shell of himself. It was embarrassing to always have to listen to the dad bod stuff.

Finally buckled down and won three additional seasons as a 40 year old against athletes half his age.

Really impressive.

I feel bad for Tori won both of the individual checkpoints probably had at least a 2 or 3 minute lead and lost by seconds. So much for Nelly getting better at swimming. Devin will never ever win, congrats at remembering all the numbers though. I'm glad CT won but I hope he takes a season off. Plus I really want Kyle to win 1

They need to drop the agents and explosions crap, bring back the skull twist (fixed somehow) send in last place of the daily, and winner of daily picks opponent, maybe a life shield for the elimination winner, and far less rookies to slaughter. IMO JMO FMO

He played a great 2/3's then kind of fell apart once his cell got broken up, the Tori and Amanda stuff was garbage. Having sh*t cardio is just as bad if not worse than being dumb, as it's an easier fix. IMO

This is something All Stars gets right, no goofy themes, no explosions, no gimmicky sh*t, its just do A, B, and C in the daily. Loser in the bottom, winner picks 2 teams for nomination, clear and good elimination and someone goes home. The comp isn't as good but I might actually prefer it to the main show right now.

His journey overall is just incredible, so many peaks and valleys.

Can't wait till next year when all the guys talk about, "we can't let CT make a final" only to let him make and win another one. I love CT but we desperately need Bananas and/or Jordan back.
