The game feels different without him. Neither bad nor good. I just thought it would be drastically better without him but its ok. I may be missing him a tad.

He can stay home. I looked at the list of winners yesterday and seeing his name so many times is why so many people refuse to watch this show. Same ol ish. Who wants to watch the same person DOMINATE all the time? I don't

Is that his fault tho or the others? Btw he went on a 7 season run of not winning prior to his last season.

I mean production is at fault for Rivals, the other times early in his career he was lucky to be friends with Kenny and Evan. Then Mark threw an elimination which helped him on Exes 

I don't miss him in the slightest, I'm glad he's not on

Others for the most part. He's never been all that good, just very 'lucky'. That 6 season run where he went 0-7 in eliminations proved just how mediocore he really is without excessive help.

At no point was John ever dominant.  Maybe Rivals/Exes but even on those Adam & Mark threw eliminations for him.  If John gets to a final he usually wins (only Inferno 3/Rivals II I think he didn't) but he's never been the best competitor or dominating.

Double agents been the best season ever without him

Who is this man? Was he like on a previous season or something?

Can this thread be deleted so I never have to see his face on this site again

Glad he's gone, hope he never returns.

He definitely was the best person on Exes season one. Winning 7 times on any competitive show is dominant in its self. Especially when some people can't even manage to win the show once. So kvm you can definitely have a seat. It's responses like this that now i understand why people think your dumb as ****. You won't give Bananas credit. But then will act like Tori is the best all around girl athlete when she hasn't proven anything yet.

Go away. Half of his wins were rigged and production helped him a ton. Ever wonder why he has never seen a physical elimination? He would get destroyed.

First off, Tori has never been the best girl on any season. On WOTW2 she performed like it but that was it and Cara was still better

Second, John didn't dominate Exes. Mark and CT were better than him. He had a better partner though. It's like saying Emily wasn't the best girl

Third, John has good wins. Especially Free Agents. Awesome win. But John was never someone that people were scared of. He played a great social game and had some luck along the way. There's nothing wrong with that.

Another NBC show on at 4AM that nobody watches? He should try to slide into Paramount+ and see if they have anything he can host

I feel like one of the only reason's he's liked so much is because he's won 7 times. Take those away and you don't have shit to hang your hat on with him. He's just not that interesting or useful. 

I'm confused as to who watches 1st look.

I'd say a combination of that and lucky timing. He wasn't very relevent before Exes even though he had three wins, but the show needed new stars after Kenny & Evan were banned and a lot of other big vets were stopping too. Without his masters there he broke out on Exes by winning and getting confessionals that Kenny would normally get(mostly the same lines too), so after so many rookies were on seasons he came back on rivals 2 and was a big character basically because they're weren't a lot of vets around, and then solidified his super vet status when he won free agents. That roughly seems like the start of production's CT, Wes & Bananas love that later turned into worship

People who fall asleep to SNL and then leave the tv on all night.

He's close to 40 now still acting like his college frat years yikes.

What's 1st look?

In hindsight if BOTS 2012 did amazing in the rating he might not have be as pushed as a star over the last 8 years.

I disliked John from The Duel and Inferno 3 then absolutely hated him by the time The Island/The Ruins were done.  I do agree he was the sidekick to Evan & Kenny but I'm not surprised he became the face.  Evan was talking retirment after The Ruins even without the allegations.  Derrick was too.  I expected Kenny, John and Wes to be the people they wanted to carry the show.  Inferno 3 he had the 4th most confessionals, The Island the most and Cutthroat 2nd despite not making it to the end. 

I do wish they would have cast and promoted Seasons better so we didn't basically get a decade of John being the face of the show.
