Casting cant be fix when they have a limited casting pool and they have to make the cast 50% diverse which make it even more limited because regardless of what they say on social media they are declining or dropping or not even passing physical exams.
I'm sorry PR, but I just think that is bull. Casting has got it in their heads that they decide who is an "all-star" and who is not. There are plenty of all-star caliber minority players. Latoya is an all-star caliber personality who brings drama and has won an elimination. And she's African American! Cooke is Filipina. Averey is half Latina/Native American. Brandon's not the most exciting casting choice, but he's a fan favorite and African American. Marlon IS an exciting casting choice and fits both LGBT and minority quotas and an absolute monster competitively.
All of the above have won eliminations and been a part of memorable arguments/fights and were super fun on The Challenge. That's almost 20% of a cast right there. But there's this air of "oh they're irrelevant". How are they any more irrelevant than Cynthia or Sophia or Derek?
They're playing favorites just like they did on the main show and are acting like they're running out of All-Star talent.

Well, they need it be vaccinated too
Then tell Marlon to *** or get off the pot. I'm almost certain the other 4 are vaxx'd.
Yeah, damn right Averey adds diversity. We need more Mexican representation.
I still don't know why Marlon's not back. He was on that awful Ex on the Beach show. He's the perfect Challenge castmember. Checked off every box on his rookie season and then that was it.
Edit: oh he's an antivaxxer. We've had some on the shows. Guess no more on upcoming shows.
lmaooo some of you guys are delusional he isn't going to force ppl that don't want to do it, clear people medically or transform ppl into making the cast diverse
The fact Sophia was cast and an alternate twice told us things might be in trouble--let's just be real. Nehemiah, LT, Darrell did all 3 seasons plus Teck did 2--they can't find black men apparently.

Why are you blaming Sophia and not Coral, Evelyn, Rachel, Landon, etc. for declining and the casting/production teams?

Honestly, in terms of favorite castmembers of all time for me, Averey prob doesn't even crack my Top 50, but I just find what has happened to her on these shows so unfair, she deserves a shot at redemption. Plus she's a good competitor and super attractive. And she can throw hands. What's not to love?
And all of these people have had fights/arguments/hookups with the existing cast. Brandon/Brad, Brandon/Wes, Averey/Nia, Averey/Nany, Latoya/Jordan, Latoya/Nelson, Marlon/Derek, Marlon/CT, CT/Cooke, etc.
Also if you tell Marlon that he has a shot at 250k, best believe his hypocritical *** would go get vaxx'd lol.

I'm not "blaming" her. I'm saying the fact they used her is proof others aren't willing to do it. It's not complicated.

Pink, can you specify other than the 5 I mentioned and Emilee Fitz, who else accepted/would accept the availability calls?
The problem with diverse casting is that you're not going to be able to create a cast that's diverse if you're picking people that were cast when the show wasn't diverse. See BB22, they wanted a diverse cast but since all the seasons prior didn't have a diverse cast they didn't have enough options
i know you guys aren't blaming diversity and not the fact that nobody watches this. haven't they been caught buying views for the trailers? come on the niche audience of people in 2021 that want to watch washed up MTV Challenge vets was not that big to begin with.
Gamer insinuated that the views were good for AS and that casting is the major problem, which is why were calling them out for being lazy and uninspired with their casting.

on twitter he's literally said it's a flop tho, they literally have to buy views. let's do the math brother. the show has never even trended. do you know how easy it is to trend on twitter? 13 year olds trend their boy of the month every other day

we're lucky we got 3.
Don't kid yourself--the nonsensical 50% diversity is a huge issue--pretending otherwise is naive.

Where are the actual metrics? I don't assume stuff based on my feelings until I see actual numbers.
I am not saying they are bad because even 50k subscriptions on that streaming would be good since that whole relaunch of it was a failed imo

no one you guys like is saying yes. so black and brown people aside how different is the cast becoming. if every one was saying yes and on board i might agree but no one worth a damn is.

It's nonsensical, first off. And second, it's only a huge issue to racists.

thinking otherwise on that is whats naive brother
Important people declining is also a huge issue but having to keep up with diversity is just as big if not bigger. See Sophia and Steve being cast. I can assure you they could have found non-diverse options that are better

What? BB and Survivor doing 50% diversity is great. This show with an existing limited casting pool is a different story. Think before you comment.

name them. name someone on All Star caliber that would move the needle that you can confirm agreed to be here and was told no for Sophia and Steven.
Can we scale the diversity back to like 30% then? Lol
Well, they need it be vaccinated too
They should have
You need 12, I just gave them 5 literally off the top of my head, they can keep 7 of the existing contestants. It's not hard AT ALL.
Then tell Marlon to *** or get off the pot. I'm almost certain the other 4 are vaxx'd.

Welp
Don't answer that. Sophia isn't doing this season so it doesn't matter.

Time to bring in Cory, Nelson, Theo, Jeremiah, but all girls and white guys must be OGs lol.
I think it's weird when ppl put Mark long in a pedestal and give him him more power that he has ever got
welp lets hope nia gets her deserved win before the show gets the boot... is homecoming getting cancelled next lol?
