Maybe you and DA would fit in better on Reddit with the casuals.

 Some of us aren't obsessed with Old Schoolers. Sorry if that's an issue for you.

Beth is one of the Challenge legends...wish she would officially come back. I'm hoping Veronica, Derrick, and Darrell have started a  renaissance of old cast members returning and join the newbies what's up! Would love to see the old schoolers rule once again. 

Yeeeeeaaaaaaaah No.

Dont get me started on Hailey. So much untapped potiential it's sickening she's never been back.

lol.

We can't act like Hailey didn't show up & show out during that first mission on Exes 2 though. We'll likely never know what she could've brought; they dont even ask Thomas nowadays lmao

Speaking of Thomas he's someone I'd like to see back. He grew on me a bit during Bloodlines and Rivals 3.

doesnt want to see beth or tina veronica etc since they "add nothing to the show"

wants guy back that has never added anything to the show ever lol. 

gotta say DA at the end of the day you stick to your thoughts and beliefs hard. can respect that. i disagree, but can respect.

Don't you have garbage to rummage through?... Lol.

I guess you got some time on the library computer before it runs out.

Well With Tina I never said that she couldn't add anything to the show. I said she couldn't add anything that other more recent and younger castmembers aren't. Like IMO girls like Latoya/Marie/Amanda are similar to what Tina was. Only less successful in terms of the game. Veronica is just someone I never was a fan of and had no intrest in seeing so why would I want her back?

And I wouldn't say Thomas hasn't brought anything to the show. He was involved in the whole CM/Abram thing and he did have his moments on Rivals 3. He's not a HUGE character and not essential to the show but IMO he's not completly useless. 

And Yes I do stick to my opinions. Thank You for Acknowledging that and not being a ***** about it.

Wym? He's taking out the garbage...

Hailey >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I still stand by what I was told about her elimination being rigged for Johnny/Averey. Production may not **** with Averey now, but they surely did back then.

No.

Yeah production was high on pushing Averey to be the next It girl and then dropped her *** out the blue.

I don't think anyone is obsessed with old schoolers...I think there's just a lot of people that want to see casting cover all eras.  There's no logic behind ruling out anyone--old, new or regular.  Watching old school interact with the new generation of challengers makes for good TV....I want old schoolers but I already love Tori and like that Kailah adds to the game.  I've never seen anyone say we shouldn't have "new" people...and we shouldn't be seeing anyone saying that just like we should be seeing anyone saying that we shouldn't include old schoolers.  Everyone should be considered.   If they can get people like Elka, Cara Z & Kendal then they should strongly consider them.  Cara Z would have been great for XXX.  Any of the three would have been a great change of pace on Invasion instead of recycling Camila & Cara.

Yep. 

While I would love to see Beth return as well I feel like she doesn't fit in the new age of challenges anymore. She would probably be targeted first like Veronica was on Champs vs Pros and she goes home first. This isn't the Gauntlet anymore where people were afraid of going against Beth because of her weight.

Wish I had a site or link to watch Gauntlet 3 & Duel 2. MTV.ca doesn't work in the US

Well that's obvious.

So uh where can I watch Gauntlet 3 & Diel 2?

I think both seasons you can see on MTV.com either way at the time (some years ago) I got both seasons from torrents dunno if they are working anymore.

lol yaaaassss #old-schoolrevolution 

for real though, I agree with the thought of a well mix. Having people like Veronica, Rachel, Ruthie, Mark, be in the same season as Paula, Johnny, Camilla, as well as new players like Jenna, Marie, and Ammo all together is what the show needs. A healthy balance of all ages...it pleases the old school fans and new fans and creates and awesome dynamic on the show.  (The names I through out are random don't harp on them if you comment on this lol)

The thing is is how many of them need to return? I mean at this point I don't see a reason for alot of Old Schoolers to come back. Now with like a dozen pools of people to choose from why bother with them? For Nostalgia? If you want nostalgia then go watch the old challenges. Don't have them clog up the challenges of today. Too many newer people for that. 

I mean shit. At this point I really only wanna see 3 old schoolers come back. And I think 3 is an appropriate number for how many old schoolers should return. 

Unless its Old School vs New school (and I mean a REAL old school vs new school not this 1-2 challenges and your a vet bullshit) , I am fine with only a few of them coming back every season.  It keeps it fresh but its also nostalgic. 

I was looking at The Challenge wikia page & came across Jillian Zoboroski's page and was staring at her photo.. I realize I barely remember a thing about her. Gauntlet 2 was one of my favorite seasons but I only watched it once and don't remember her on it. Gauntlet 3 was an awful season to me so I don't even want to remember it, but all I remember is her & Frank being thrown into every Gauntlet and winning but despite all that air time I don't remember her personality or characteristics. Freshmat 2 another awful season that I don't want to remember.. lol I don't remember her at all on it but I remember her partner. She's beaten some tough competition. Is she someone people beg to want to see again or is she forgettable to y'all too despite her impressive record?

lol I wasn't even reading this thread but I guess my comment fits perfectly with the current topic.
