You must have not been watching or paying attention because I saw a lot of promo for the show especially during the first hour.
[QUOTE=ILoveRW;317154]I wish MTV would promote this freaking show. I've been watching the VMAs for 2 hours now and I'm still yet to see a promo.[/QUOTE]
I saw at least two or three commercials.
The promo with Frank calling Trishelle 87 is soooo annoying. And whoever said "I know" is annoying also. I may be a bit off but here are the ages of the challengers on this season.
Alton- 32
Trishelle- 32
Big Easy- 29
Lacey- 30
Danny- 29
Melinda- 29
Wes- 28
Cj- 28
Chet- 27
Dustin- 27
Brandon- 27
Jd- 26
Sarah- 26
Devyn- 24
Cara Maria- 26
Ashley- 26
Knight- 26
Jasmine- 26
Zach- 25
Preston- 25
Camila- 24
McKenzie- 24
Jemmye- 24
Frank- 24
Marie- 23
Derek- 23
Nany- 23
Sam- 23
Jonna- 22
Trey- 22
Laura- 22
Rob- 21
St. Thomas kids might be a older a year older than what I put but that's as close as I could get.
I just find it annoying that it seems the avergae age on this show is mid 20's with a few people that are late 20's/earl 30's and people like to make fun of people for being "old." I'm 25 and I would ever call someone who was 9 years older than me "old." I'm friends a lot of people that are in their early to mid 30's. People are so dumb when it comes to ages on this show.

Wes is not 28. On Fresh Meat II he said he was 24 and that challenge aired only 2 years ago.
[QUOTE=mizwood;317209]I'm sorry but your list is not correct. Wes is like 25 or 26 and I'm sure Trey is 23. Is it possible Ashley is that old? She was 23 on her season.[/QUOTE]
The internet says that Wes was born September 10th '84. He's 27...but he'll be 28 in three days.

I am pretty sure that IMDb is wrong this time around...
I especially remember that Wes was 19 during his season, they always joked about him and Nehemiah being underaged and at least 2 years younger than the rest of them.

Someone has got to be wrong on this front. Wes was supposedly 19 when RW: Austin was filming at the beginning of 2005, which would have him turning 27 this year (and corroborates with him saying he was 24 at the end of 2009). Yet multiple sources list his birthday as 9/10/84, which would put him at 28 in a couple of days.
The Internet is not always right.

Minor spoiler
[SPOILER]The Final Challenge takes place in Africa, not sure why it isn't addressed in the trailer like the past 2 seasons.[/SPOILER]

Wes is 27, on FB he put his birthday as Nov 24 1984.
I always think the RW/RR people are so much older than me, when most of them are my age or only a couple of years older than me. Like how is Wes 27 if I'm 24. His season aired when I was a junior in high school. I thought he was older, no?

Did you not read the posts before yours?

[QUOTE=arilicious;317220]I'm sick of the final challenges being in a completely different place, wish they would go back to the challenges that take only one day to complete rather than going overnight, why can't they just stay in the place that they are? Just my opinion, sorry if I'm off topic.[/QUOTE]
I agree. I mean it was cool when they did it on Rivals because all the viewers were like, "Holy ****. They have never done this before." Then on Battle of the Exes it was, "Whoa they're doing it again." Now its just like, "Okay yeah, it's not cool anymore."

But I think these final challenges seperates "MTV The Challenge" from all the other reality comp. shows. Survivor/Big Brother/TAR, etc.
The challenge nowadays is to live in a house with 20-30 people (mentally) and doing all these crazy stuff (physically). Whereas the "old" challenges were like , exactly how it was called, a mix between Real World and Road Rules.
Usually a show is either a social game with the competitions being more lackluster or a physical game with a minor social game in the input.

Doesn't matter as correct age on FB isn't a demand. More an option. Some don't list at all.
Even if Wes is about 27 or 28, that is still only 5 or 4 years younger than the 2 oldest competitors. I don't think I ever heard any of the younger cast members making fun of the older ones on the older seasons. Norman had to be in his late 30's or even 40 when he did Gauntlet 1 and Mike and Alton actually looked to him for advice rather than poke fun at his age. And NO ONE EVER makes fun of Mark for being 40 and still doing shows. But yet Beth, Katie, Veronica and Trishelle get made fun of.

Thats cause they're girls, it's a double standard. Like how they made a big deal that Paula was in her 30s yet no one ever calls CT old. Mark does get made fun of but jokingly, it's more out of respect for looking that good at 40. And Frank just has nothing else to say about Trishelle so he calls her old. He probably didn't get along with her so instead of calling her ugly he says she's 80.

I wouldn't say it is a double standard. I would say it is because girls are more insecure with their age than guys. You could try to make fun of CT's age, or any guy's age, but it wouldn't affect him much, if at all.

Yea which is why they do it, but it's still not considered a big deal if you say that stuff to a guy, its seems like more of a joke when Mark is called old, or Evan is called fat and when Wes is called ugly but when they say that stuff to girls it's a bigger deal but yeah you're right guys don't care as much, they wouldn't care if they don't have kids or a wife at 30, which is apparently is a bad thing according to Laurel. But yeah sorry for the tangent.
