Okay and your point is sweetie?

The Casuals Turning on Camila

The casuals on the FB group and in other places are really beginning to turn on Camila. They are beginning to realize that with Camila it is the same old tired act every season and after 7+ years of it, the fanbase is growing tired of her FINALLY. At the reunion she really did make a fool of herself to the point where people were just embarrassed how someone could act like that. They got destroyed with FACTS and she just dances around like a 13 year old middle school girl. "you like that baby." no. nobody likes that and nobody likes you.

The fact that it seems even the females on the challenge are getting tired of her shit. Shes a production golden child why? I have no ******* idea, but I am totally here for the casuals and challengers getting sick of this moron.

I don't know why it took so ******* long. The ***** has always been terrible.

it's too bad mtv is really trying to force her in our faces more than ever. As much as I dislike Johnny, Camila is nowhere near his status and shouldn't be partnering up with him as the face of the challenge. 

Nia MooreShe is one of the best things of this franchise. Shes genuine and is guarenteed for drama. I love everything about her. Even when she has her flaws she owns up to them and apologizes and at least tries to grow from it (unlike ********). She def woulda made the seasons she wasnt casted on 10 times better. I woulda loved to see her and makeda but i guess i still have hope for bloodlines 2. She is also a person whos alter ego comes out when they're genuinely upset and have held it in alot, not just some drunken character. I miss her and i hope she returns.

 

 

Ps her cooking is bomb. When i was in Atlanta we met her and she cooked us up a meal. If u dont believe me idc. Ik im tellin the truth

PRODUCTION DOING RIGHT BY THE CHALLENGE.

For the longest time people on this site(me included) have been very critical about the folks that handle this show and for good reason too. Bad decisions and horrible seasons abound at some points really made us wonder what the **** do production be thinking about when it came to this show.

Now it seems that they're starting to care for this show and really push it as one of their top frachises and you know what? That's a good thing given this show has been around since the late 90's. They're really bringing back old schoolers and establishing the new kids coming in the show. That's gonna go a long way in getting this show more legs that it already has. They're doing Challenge specials like Champs vs Pros that gets eyes on the franchise, Not to mention they're sending some of the challege cast to appear on other shows like Fear Factor and Wild 'n Out. And now that it seems that the current challenge fimling may be coming our way sooner than we think.

Good on MTV for really getting behind this show and seeing this show through. Especially now that with The Real World in Limbo, this could be very well the last remnants of the RW/RR/Challenge Franchise.

THE JOURNEY OF CT.

One of the best things about the challenge and it allowing people to return multiple times is that we get to see people change and grow/regress during their time on the show. I do believe that CT is probably the best example of this. When CT first debuted on the challenge he was pretty cool and quiet. He had his drama with Leah but otherwise all he did that season was just compete well and just sit back..And get naked once during a challenge(Which laaaaaawd that shit was amazing). Then we see him on Inferno 2 and man..the guy was a complete and total *******. He w***elfish, rude, and just plain mean. He was a punk if you will. Like I'll never forget him trying to intimate Dan because he thought that he was gonna get the lifesaver and send him in the Inferno. Automatic L if you ask me. Like you're the strongest guy in this game so why are you so afraid of going in? But on the other hand though I get it. The Inferno could be anything so there is a chance he could lose and plus you wanna keep your *** out of eliminations at all cost so I do understand it but still...Scaring Dan who you know wasn't gonna do shit? Really Dude? REALLY???

He missed out on G2 and FM 1 but he made his grand return on The Duel where we see another side of him. A side that we never saw up to that point..The sweet, caring, and in love version of CT and Diem brought that out in him. Those two were pretty much together for pretty much the entire season and after him being so punkish prior to this it was nice to see him kind. He had an outburst when he lost. But as a whole this would be the last time we would see any good side of CT in awhile.

He enterted a point where he would get kicked off alot for fighting starting with Inferno 3. He punched Davis hard that he got sent home. He kept his hands to hiself on Gauntlet 3 but lord was he a complete and total ****, even worse than what he was on Inferno 2. Don't remember the details as I haven't seen that season since it aired but from what I remember it was bad. Duel 2 was a ******* DOOZIE! He had one of the worst fights ever in not only of The challenge but maybe in the history of reality TV. He was going through alot that time as I beleve that his bother was recently killed at the time and his relationship with Diem w***trained so that definelty added to his mentality going into that challenge and you can see it all got unleashed on Adam. He really tried to "smash his head and eat it" as he would put it. Now keep in mind I hated CT at this point and I would've been fine if he had never been brought back as he was a ******* animal and I feared for the saftey of the rest of the cast. After that challenge we wouldn't see him for awhile.

He returned on Cutthroat as a heavy hitter and man he made a mark. He came and made Johnny his personal Backpack and that is the very reason why I call Johnny Backpack now. He made his official return on Rivals 1 where he was in a much better place. He was calm and seemingly willing to redeem himself although some of his past behavior reared it's head with his spat with resident victim Cara Maria and his and his all night fight with Wes. But overall he seemed focus and did his best to reel Adam in from JEK's shitty ways. Ultimatley it was all for naught as Adam cost them the final challenge on purpose. He held no grudes toward him for it it seems and that was good..Although I personally would've have blamed him if he beat his *** right then and there. Overall Rivals 1 was a good showing for a CT that was in a better place in his life and just be ready to come back and tear it up on The Challenges. This would continue with Exes 1(From what I remember)

From Rivals 2 to Exes 2 he was just chill with some drama along the way(Diem, Frank, bar tabs) but overall you can tell that he's just changed now and not that person he was before. It's also worth noting he got his first win ever on Rivals 2 with Wes! I know that was a big milestone for him as he'd been doing these shows for so long without a win at that point. Then sadly Diem p***ed after Exes 2 and this time he made a good decision to just stay at home and deal with it..and he also created some things too as we would learn later on. After a brief appearence as a heavy hitter once again on Bloodlines he made his 2nd official return on Invasion. He came back just ready to compete not just for him but for his son. He's a father now and on top of that he came across as a older bother/father on the show. Seeing him giving Ashley M advice telling her to just don't quit and keep going was kinda full circle-esque. And it was really great to see him in that role because at this point he's done it all and seen it all and we, the viewers been right there with him through it all really. 

Now I gotta admit I didn't like CT through his early-mid days but I did came around to him on Rivals 1 onwards. Now I'm up and down with him but I'm mostly up with him now because he's now been such a nice presence and he's much more mature now too. He went from this ********* punk kid to this grown mature man who's has a good head on his shoulders and ready to just compete and you know what? He's still has it too as he proved on Invasion where he got his second win. CT has really had quite the journey on this show..**** this Franchise beginning with his RW season, and along the way we've seen his many personalities and changes and you get the sense that we, the audience grew up with him. I know I certanly did. CT was never one of my favorites and as I stated before there was a point that I did not like him at all but I've came around to him for the most part and I can step back and look at his time on these shows and say wow...It's been one **** of a ride with this guy.  One **** of a ******* Journey. And I know I'm not the only one who feels this. 

With all of this it kinda makes sense that CT is one of the most popular castmembers of this show and is one of(if not THE) faces of the show. 

To Whoever reads this I do hope this was a good read and it all made sense and I got my point across in a decnet way.

 

 

 

DEVIN AND RASHEEDA WINNING SECOND CHANCES.

This isn't exactly challenge related but Devin has been on The Challenge so I'll include it. Devin as you know is from Are You The One. That show got it's own little competition spin off which Devin had a great showing in. He and his partner Rasheeda. His partnet and perfect match. Competed well and srategized their way through the game and ended up winning it all. Gotta say it's really great to see one of my faves come out on top for a change.

Caged Challenge from Invasion

I thought this challenge was unique and was also fun to watch. It wasn't the basic overplayed heights over water challenge and it actually was an even matchup between both teams. I also liked the idea of the fake doors even though they didn't seem to be very impactful. Overall it was a refreshing daily and production should do more of these.

Plus the coconuts falling on camilla was fulfilling to watch 

Yeah that challenge was awesome. I hope they do that again.

DA, the CT post was perfect. Thoroughly enjoyable, thanks for that.

Agreed DA on the evoultion of CT. It's been great to watch. I've liked CT, but I became a fan after Rivals 1. Just nice to see someone grow the way that he did, and I feel like you dont get to see that with other people who have been on the show this long.

Yes I agree with DA. I like watching people grow and mature from these shows over time. Seeing people regress/not grow up is just pathetic.

Yeah DA's post was nice. I think Wes also came along way from the cocky young athlete, to the cocky young athlete with a massive ego on roids which he called himself body of Zeus, then on to the cocky political mind Wes and then Rivals 2 onwards chilling Wes with almost no physique anymore but still able to play the game. But yeah CT came in full circle and they need to give this man an epic montage or make a special about him when he retires.

ST THOMAS REPRESENTATION RETURNING TO THE CHALLENGES.

For awhile the St Thomas cast wasn't really on the challenges. Last time they were represented on the shows were Free Agents. But that all changed on Invasion where Marie and Latoya returned to the show in decent fashion. Now St Thomas representation is present on the upcoming Dirty 30 season in Marie and Latoya once again. It seems as though St thomas has returned to the show and hopefully they remain.

Robb/Trey/Swit to return please.

Also thanks to all who liked the CT post. I enjoyed writing it.

KAILAH

Kailah is a recent addition to this show. She made her way onto MTV Via The Real World: Go Big or Go Home and from then on she made her challenge debut on Invasion where she lived up to her potential by Hooking up with King Cory and kicking *** in eliminations...Until she herself got the boot Via Sylvia owning her in elimination. She came back on Dirty 30 and She's shown more of herself, She's proven to be not too bright but is willing to play the game and protect her and BBF Jenna(Ew) in anyway she can. She's also seemed to gain a Rival in Cara Maria as well. 

She's another person in the long line of people that I didn't care too much of on their RW season but came to like on The Challenge. As I said before she's not bright but she is willing to play the game and that's rare on this show. She's also confident and is not a bad competitor to boot. She's someone I could see making a final eventually: **** she might make the final on Dirty 30 as of right now the finalists of the season are not set in stone yet. 

Kailah does has some issues though. She's a bit like CM where she plays victim and in some cases doesn't try to improve her position in the game. Peep when Jenna left for redemption ealier on Dirty 30. She cried in her bed about how noone liked her. She didn't really try to improve that. Hopefully that changes with her. 

But Overall Kailah is a good addition to the show and isn't outright horrible despite her flaws. She'll definetly be one of the new regulars going foreward.

i love that she's willing to PLAY, she's not just here to look cute on tv for an episode or two she's going to play the game

we've been getting a decent amount of new faces that are here to play, they just need some tweaks but the new guard is looking to be a fave of mine personally 

Agreed. Kailah is growing on me, she’s a good competitor. Jenna grew on me a little bit on dirty 30 too. Both compete well, but their strategic game play needs work. Before Jenna could just skate by like on past seasons but that isn’t the case anymore so they both need to do better. I can see them both winning a final tbh.

NELSON-REVISITED!

I gotta admit. When this guy debuted on Rivals 3 I thought he was just useless as he was a ******* ghost on that season. But Then came Invasion and man did this guy make a ******* NAME for himself. He was an endearing, sometimes Corny challenge fan thrusted into the game and was willing to follow all the rules and play this game as well as he can..He was dubbed Captain challenge during the season for god sakes! But make no mistake he may be a fan but he didn't just act starstruck and blow his load like alot of Survivor fans tend to do when they get on the show. Early on he was made the forefront of an alliance, Duked it out with Tony, Hooked up with Latoya, Competed decently in Missions, Won 3 eliminations, Including a Good showing in the bloodbath of that season...Then made it to the final challenge where he had a Good showing(For the most part) He sadly came in second But overall he really solidified himself as a challenge player and one to look out for in the future. THen on Dirty 30 he continued his patterning of competing and getting into a little drama along the way. Sadly he had to leave the game due to an altercation he had which was sad but he will be back.

I like Nelson mainly because as I said before..He just came off very differently in the way he expressed his fandom of the challenge. And he also sometimes talks very passionatley and strongly, And you can tell that he truly wants to win one of these things and despite his shortcomings as a competitior and just in the game in general I do believe he will win one someday. But I will say that he needs to chill with the booze though because he seems to act out a bit when he's drunk. 

Overall I just find the guy endaring and fun and we really don't get that alot on these shows. Gotta say I scoffed when he was cast on Invasion but looking back I'm glad he was cast again becasue he turned out to be a good character. He's one of the outsiders that showed that people who aren't from RW/RR can actually be good additions to the show. Not to mention he's in cahoots with my other faves..Cory and Hunter. The Young Bucks!

So Yeah. Nelson>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

DA, i’m surprised you haven’t made a Hunter entry yet. He has been great on Dirty 30. I am a fan now.

edit: nvm you did
