I legit forgot Marlon was only a one-timer.  It felt like we saw him a lot more than that.  He def needs to come back.  

I was always surprised Ryan Leslie never did this show even once.  I remember thinking he would be a lock.  

Weren't Ryan Leslie and Preston supposed to be on Rivals but Preston declined?

Yeah I remember them wanting Ryan/Preston on Rivals a lot, but one of them declined. I think it was Preston. 

Kailah and Ceejai should have been the only ones from their seasons to get calls. I feel like Ceejai could have been a regular too. Still love how Kailah was the only one to become a regular after they all shit on her lol 

What to you is the most forgettable elimination round, the "oh yeah they did that" one?

For me idk if it counts but rats in a cage from the island, a lot of the island showdowns were forgettable but this was so boring I forgot it existed.

I forgot which one was the most for forgettable for me. But there are several

Been rewatching The Ruins and if Wes was never on to begin with that season would have a great shot to go dwn as the worst season of all time. What a snoozfest without Wes 

Yeah I remember them wanting Ryan/Preston on Rivals a lot, but one of them declined. I think it was Preston. 

i think the story went was that they both said yes to the initial call. The theme got leaked to the cast and Preston said no to the second call. I think Ryan even did some angry post about it.

Trisha from Sydney, Cara & Keri from Chicago weren't on that list or Brynn from Vegas, Julie from New York. Cancel it. Katrina and Bryan would have been great additions though.

at least production tried with Trisha and Cara. Lol but they kept saying no. Cara even started blocking their number. I think the last time she was rumored to be asked was Gauntlet 2.

 

we almost got Trisha for exes 1, I think. I remember reading they wanted she and bananas to be partners.

Brynn was supposed to be on battle of the sexes 2, but got dropped bc production didn't want to pay for a sitter for her young child. Then she was gonna do gauntlet 3 but got pregnant.

I'm so sad we never got Trisha or Brynn. Cara was mad because she got a ****** edit right? I also wish we got more Irulan.

I think it's funny how wes is quarantining but traveling all this reality stars in and out from different states to his patreon show like nothing

Plus getting Ninja of all people that all of the casuals, twitter stans and casual hate isn't going to help him with more subscribers lmaooo

 

I can't think of one thing worse than being quarantined with Natalie...either Natalie really.

Does anyone happen to know the oldest male and female that they casted for their first challenge debut?

I need to know bc Natalie from survivor just turned 34 and I need her badly next season or is that too old for mtv for them to start lol

Was Wendell contacted for S34 or S35 of The Challenge? Im just speculating because im watching an interview of him and he said he had opportunities that he was contacted for but turned it down for survivor 40.

Don't count on Natalie, expect the random 4th boot from a forgettable season. The best case scenario from MTV will be Lauren O'Connell.

Wendell is even older than Natalie and not as athletic. At 36 years old he doesn't seem like a fit for mtv. Personality wise I don't think he would vibe with the others, he's too talented and above the show to be honest lol

Lauren would be perfect for the challenge. She's young, pretty, tall, competitive and athletic. Why haven't they casted more survivors on the show. Also if jay didn't do the other mtv shows first and only did survivor I doubt they woulda chosen him for this season.

I mean thats not really what I asked but ok lol

I dunno, but since most of the cast is in their mid 30's now and older I don't think age plays into it as much.  Nor should it.  But I think that person's age wouldn't stop her. 

Who did you guys though was going to be a regular and translate well on the challenge but once they did their debut they were bland/nothing happenned?

For me Theo from bad blood I though he was going to be someone with a lot of heart/fan fav, Bruno and Sylvia despite being on 3 being decent/being on such a hated alliance/making the final once for some reason she is very forgettable to myself/ a lot of viewers.

I would say Johnny Reilly and Avery. 

Ayiiia is another one she was everything on Real World drama and hookup. Then on cutthroat pretty chill for some reason I only remember that she had Asthma.

She had some beef with Cara Maria on Cutthroat. 

I really thought Christina (AYTO) was gonna be a regular, she was a decent competitor and got into drama both seasons she did

What drama did she get in on Rivals 3?? 

Also they had a major mishap in not casting Layton from AYTO S2 imho. I know people hate him but he sure knew how to stir the pot.

This would be the perfect (or horribly offensive) time to produce a battle of the races themed challenge....

honestly dont remember entirely i only watched Rivals 3 once, when it was airing but i think she got into it with Brandon, i guess the drama she was in was moreso Bloodlines, but i remember her surprising me as a competitor on Rivals 3

Yes, they look at age and it plays a big part for rookies. The cast in their mid 30s debuted when they were in their 20s and have spent years doing this show. They like casting people in their mid 20s-late 20s now days for rookies. 

The only reason Kaycee was cast at 33 is because she is a minority that won Big Brother they want diversity and Jenny was because that season they wanted to have a strong muscular girl representing the UK to go against Cara/Laurel/Ninja since most of the girls on the UK side were weak. 

They dont think someone debuting in their mid 30s is a great investment on the long run, which they are not wrong since the chances of them moving on after 1 or 2 seasons are very high. 

CT, Aneesa, & Johnny are that close to 40?! Dang. Did Aneesa ever graduate? I felt like she worked on that degree for a solid 15 years.

Bless her heart...

Sad thing is they are all pushing 40 and still gossiping and pulling pranks like the 20 year olds

There are a few AYTO people that would have been good for this show, but they always picked the wrong ones.Some they didnt because they were "liabilities", like Gio. The only AYTO people that were worth it are the ones we keep seeing, like Nelson and Hunter and Tori. 

 

First one that should have been cast was Shanley, who would have been clashing hard with people. I also would have liked Mike Crescenzo paired with Amanda or Tori because they would also clash, but Tori has a restraining order on him so he is done.
