The Challenge (MTV Series, formerly Real World vs. Road Rules) TV Show • Page 62

agreed.

 

If they play like Tori and Devin and play an emotional game and make rash decisions anything is possible lol. And Jordan and Tori are right there to take advantage of them.

But yeah she made such a dumb move. Johnny was 100% right, it was idiotic. You throw him against the two weakest people in the game, there was a literally ZERO chance he was losing so you're just making an enemy now and he definitely has the ability cause chaos by being petty and vindictive.

War is in and he was right telling Jordan it's bananas side or Tori's side now.

Yeah now with the numbers being so low, the 3 will inevitably be your friends. I bet Cara was surprised as hell that he passed her and went straight for revenge.

 

If I’m Cara I pull Bananas aside and make an alliance with him since she’s already tight with Theo. So she will have two strong males backing her.

 

Yeah plus he knows Cara and Tori don't get along so ultimately he can have the majority of powerful women in his side with Cara, Laurel, Jenny and even with Rachel playing both sides.

 

Another weak ass Elimination. These games are so boring that I don't even feel invested in the last 20 minutes of the show until they pick the next targets. Bananas had some good points with his blow up calling out Jordan and Tori. Hope he can overcome the odds of getting tossed in biweekly. Can't stand Michelle or Olivia.

 

Same and same and same. And the fact they desg out the elimination for a whole half hour when they could do 15 mins and show us better footage in the house? Yeah Bananas is in a tricky situation. Maybe it's him bs Nehemiah. Or what if not Jordan wins and all 3 are eligible for it and whoever wins picks bananas vs Jordan? Episode doesn't look too great for aviv hopefully it's not too bad. Also I really thought this was Nias to win so I'm legit surprised she lost but I'm glad Michele got her a win. I don't like her this season but overall I've liked her so it's good to see happy moments for her. Purge next week should be interesting, wonder if it's just the last place purged or if it'll be like the last 2 of each sex.

 

Bananas just needs one of his girls to win the daily challenge and not come in last and he should be fine.

I agree with the eliminations being boring. I wish they would do more physical one on ones.

 

I forget which podcast it was that said it's never been REALLY about the eliminations (which is kinda semi true ever since they started focusing on safe, puzzle era) what we used to love was the messiness and the drama and the arguing in the house. Which is kinda there this season because bananas knows how to make good TV. HOWEVER, please give us some physical stuff. PLEASE.

 

PURGE TONIGHT!

Apparently the new off show drama is revolving around Laurel, Horacio and Nurys. PLEASE keep drama on the TV show or at least bring these storylines into the show.

 

Aviv is a beast!
Laurel lololol. Wow.
Kyland is definitely someone to watch out for.
Josh snapping at Michele.
Karma votes damn.

Looking at the remaining roster, will a champ win again or will someone get their first win?? Looking at who is left, it's Kyland, Josh, Cory, Derek, Aviv, Michele and Olivia? Yeah I think the only person capable of pulling it off is Kyland or Aviv tbh.

 

What’s the drama?

 

I knew once Laurel started to complain she would be the one to get eliminated. Once she has any doubt so completely shuts down and quits.

I think Kyland has to be the favorite for the men right now. He’s both smart and athletic. For the girls I’d have to say Rachel or Tori.

Will be interesting to see how the karma votes play into the final. I’m guessing either time penalties or they need to carry weight during the challenge. Right now I’m not a big fan of the concept.

 

good episode. God that Laurel shitting the bed scene was just epic. What a loser. Ive always felt she was overrated. Even when she won all stars, she didnt deserve it. She got to skip 75% of the final.

 

I wouldn’t call her overrated I just think her drive isn’t there anymore. Really ever since Invasion of the Champions season she is like a different player in quitting easily, getting in her head etc.

 

So Laurel went on either a FB or IG live and said that Horacio told her she was the best blessing that the challenge has ever given him. (Obviously this was a while back lol) But it was pointed out she was recently commenting on his pictures on IG stuff like "love it". Nurys proceeds to go OFF on Twitter in Nurys fashion lol and then keen eyes notice Horacio is now longer following Laurel online (he was prior to this) and he posts a new IG post with a pic of Nurys saying "my BIGGEST blessing" and the rabid fans are just eating it up. It's funny cuz I remember on a past podcast Nurys mentioned how when all three were in the house whenever her and Horacio were together and Laurel would make it a point to talk specifically to Horacio and pretend she wasn't even there and ignore her.

Yeah once Laurel shows she's fed up with something, she's literally done lol...there's no convincing her otherwise. I think Cara was right when she said Laurel wasn't expecting this level of competition.

Do we even know how exactly the karma votes work? Do we know for a CERTAINTY that 1 is the low score and 5 the high? Or is it possible that the less amount of points the better? Like 1 point for being ranked #1? Like I don't know if it's gonna be an accumulation of all the votes combined or if it's gonna be, you had THIS many 1's so obviously you were thought of as the #1 person..... I don't remember it ever being confirmed.

Yep 1000000%. I legit laughed when she was getting frustrated lol.

 

Why production why are we not seeing this hahaha I wanna see a Rachel and Josh vs Michele LOL

 

We don’t know how the karma vote is going to work yet.

 

Ok good haha, I thought I might be misremembering. But yeah I agree with you too, not a fan of the karma votes right now. It seems extremely pointless in a season that's meant to be a celebration of the eras....a landmark season....it just seems like some outside factor that's gonna be something stupid like the stars in the final in AS 4 that made Laurel skip most of the final lol. No thanks.

 

Fully disappore of the karma voting

 

I just hope it doesn't have as a drastic effect as AS4 and Laurel....

 

Wasnt too invested in this weeks episode. I think they ddidnt have much of a story to produce since there was no deliberation due to the ending results of the daily. I honestly would have enjoyed both women losing that elimination as they sound like a broken record. Never thought I'd see as much crying this season from someone other than Josh. Next week looks interesting with the 3 targets. Im interested to see if in fact Bananas can make it to the final.

 

I think at this point Jordan has to be a favorite to make the finals. He’s protected from both sides and if Derek doesn’t come in last a strong male will be eliminated. I thought it was dumb for Michele to say Corey’s name. At this point in the game there’s no point in keeping Derek around as he’s not going to win a daily or an elimination, now you made an enemy out of Corey.

 

Yeah I feel last week's was one of the weakest episodes of the season. Really don't care for the whole cryfest and if that's the focal point of the episode then I guess you need to fall back on feet? Really bizarre episode haha.
