[QUOTE=Challenge 17;427664]Despite the fact they suck why not have Danny & Melinda for exes, they are divorced I'd much rather see them then people who kissed once[/QUOTE] That's you, a diehard. But what about people who seem to have short term memory... they aren't gonna be amped up for Danny and Melinda. They'd be hype to see Knight/Jemmye(as bad as they are), Brian/Cory/Jenny, Thomas/Hailey/Jamie, and other recent drama...
[QUOTE=Youssarian;427659]First - her name is Jasmine, not Jazmin. Second - not only is she a cast member and a person with actual feelings, but she is also a member of Vevmo. Please do not disrespect others with disparaging language.[/QUOTE] 1) I spelt her name wrong because that's how irrelevant she is 2) I'm not biased towards anyone, I'd rather receive an infraction or a ban than be fake. In the long term I am almost positive that you won't "care" about Jazmin like you supposedly do right now. How can you be on a reality TV show and be immune from criticism? These people know what they signed up for. People like IAMNEMESIS or ViegasJuice say a lot more explicit things than me on this board and they're good.
[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;427663]I bet you are... you and especially kvm... :applause:[/QUOTE] You wanted half of the cast from explosion and Portland lol That point is having a diversity of the cast from didfferent seasons not half composed of only 2 seasons. Plus, we are 6-7 weeks before departure nobody is confirm until the wheels are up and not even then look at the sydney team from seasons 2. A lot can happen, in the following weeks.
For the record, I'm cool with Danny and Melinda being on this, I'm just not sure how much pull they actually have. I mean, they were certainly popular but I feel like that wore off over the years. Most people I know loved them during their season and then HATED them as soon as the reunion of their season aired. Then, I think they just got progressively more boring. But hey, at least they're real exes! And they could really use some good luck in a challenge.

Cory- out Nia- out Jasmine- out Devyn- seems out Aneesa, Brandon, Ty, etc smh. First we all went home on Free Agents and now they don't cast is smh

Secondly, one should have a little decency when talking about the cast members, even if they did sign up to be on a reality TV show. You can certainly have a negative opinion about them, but you can also express that opinion without being rude, calling them names, or generally belittling them multiple times around the entire website. Finally, if nothing else, not insulting other members is a rule on Vevmo. I do care about Jasmine. Is she my favorite person on the Challenges? No, but she deserves respect and decency just like every other person out there.

Danny & Melinda have fans? I would've thought most people just watch to see Danny get embarrassed in an elimination & Melinda is just there. There are already way too many people filling that "just there" role. I feel like Danny in most cases is worse than Tyrie. With the latter I feel as if he truly does get the short end of the stick a lot of times. Danny is just garbage.
[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;427678]No I always wanted ALL 4 and like half of Portland! And if we wanna talk about "diversity" where are the black people?!?! Cory- out Nia- out Jasmine- out Devyn- seems out Aneesa, Brandon, Ty, etc smh. First we all went home on Free Agents and now they don't cast is smh[/QUOTE] We just had a season full of black people/minorities which was great--like the Inferno Jonna/Leroy/Theresa/Nany--we have some color You need people from different seasons You're claiming you wanted 6 teams from the past 2 seasons...thank God you have no control
Man I hope a lot of this info y'all are getting is wrong lol No offense. I appreciate it but this is just not looking good for me.

They went home first on free agents because they losed an elimination in a fair way, it didn't have to do with their race. You are being petty right now lol
[QUOTE=TeamLandon;427685]Man I hope a lot of this info y'all are getting is wrong lol No offense. I appreciate it but this is just not looking good for me.[/QUOTE] It could be worse IMO

Cory - cool, don't know why they wouldn't throw him on but I believe certain castmembers just kinda need that "entrance" if you get what i'm saying (Cooke, Nia, most of BOTSeasons 2, etc.) Devyn - like her but I think she wants to take a break or is done Aneesa - same all the others I would like to see but who knows.
I don't even hate Jasmine, but no Jasmine is a good thing IMO.

But this is why I never cared for an Exes 2. Should've capitalized on the Old School v.s. New School but it "doesn't attract viewers" (which there really aren't THAT many new people watching either way, it would still hover around that 1.5 - 2.0 mark. Old School v.s. New School & a Duel 3 to be the final challenge. It's really about that time.

I guess that makes us petty lmaoooo
**** no I don't think any format BMP pull out they *** could bring the viewers to average between 1.5-2.0... Maybe like 1.2-1.5 nothing higher than that especially after a horrible Free Agents(ratings wise).
Id be surprised if Cory isn't on this season... He was a main cast member on his season.

There aren't THAT many more people watching just because of a "theme".

Fresh Meat 2/Cutthroat/Seasons/Free agents hardly pull 1.0 that's a huge increase More confirmation on Hailey/Thomas: [ATTACH]5603[/ATTACH]

[QUOTE=PinkRose;427700]It got enough to make the highest rated seasons in 8 seasons. Fresh Meat 2/Cutthroat/Seasons/Free agents hardly pull 1.0[/QUOTE] True but it was 3 years ago. This show's viewers get lower & lower every year due to many factors. These pair challenges & the same people over & over being just two of them. The way this next one is shaping up is looking to be more of the same, like it's been one long continuous challenge since 2011.

Not every one is Mark long that wants to do challenges when they're 40. So they have regulars that do challenges, rookies and one or two surprises.
[QUOTE=CHIblackhawk;427600]I want to see Jay/Jenna on there as well considering the bad ending they had. It would be quite interesting to observe how they would work together. It would be hilarious if Mr. Confident Cory who was talking about how easy a challenge would be ends up being the only Ex-Plosion male not on the cast for next season lol.[/QUOTE] I remember how he was like "Yeah the Challenges are nothing" during Ex-Plosion's reunion. Sorry Cory, but with that attitude, you'll be the next Jordan.

There are a good number of new people whom they still have yet to use or have them come back for another shot. Another thing too though is that a lot of the more interesting people from the recent seasons are done or don't plan to do that many. All the more reason to start wrapping this whole thing up.
[QUOTE=VegLife;427705]??? I'm talking about the viewers. That has nothing to do with the old school people. There are a good number of new people whom they still have yet to use or have them come back for another shot.[/QUOTE] They are building regulars fan bases, they are not having another battle of the seasons that 80% of the cast was new. But I respect your opinion , even though I don't share it
JayTee I couldn't agree with you more. If someone decides to be on reality TV, or any form of large exposure for that matter, they are putting themselves up for criticism – that's just the way the cookie crumbles. And we as viewers have the luxury of forming opinions about these people we see for 42 minutes once a week, whether they be positive [I]or[/I] negative.
Ok, I've come to piece with not having Brian and Jenny on this challenge...

I get that they want formats that are relatable and easy to grasp. That being said, how is new school vs. old school not easy for the viewer?
