Let's just move on to a different topic. I will even start one.
Seeing summaries from you posters who posted from the reunion, I am very curious how it is edited and who is potrayed in certain ways based on all the info they went over in 5-6 hours. The Laurel stuff especially, because the Big Easy/Laurel reunion fight was seriously unwatchable I don't want a repeat. I don't say that because of Laurel either, just the whole back and forth, and people trying to force an apology and Big Easy's whole attitude.[/QUOTE]
You and Me both, after the last jungle I'm ready to see the reunion and what they should have shown. I always thought the way Laurel treated big easy was disgusting but thats neither here nor there.
As much as I hated the way Jenn treated Adam on the show, it's a pretty low blow for Adam to throw all the details of their sexual trysts out in public like that, especially since Jenn seems very sensitive about the topic and especially since women are still judged very harshly for their sexual behavior.
This reunion sounds cruddy. Just a bunch of people arguing and yelling at each other... Watching it will probably just make me hate people I was previously a fan of, like Jenn and Adam. I think I'll pass on it.

Not that Adam was fully justified to do that, but it does seem as though he was letting her say whatever (hence, even in his blog after seeing her attitude toward him on tv, he still did not trash talk her). It would seem from descriptions of the reunion like she was fully denying it... outright lying. And I would think that made Adam look bad and Jenn sound as though she was too "good" for him and would never do such. I don't even think it was about women's sexual behaviour as Jenn in past dailies or clips never seemed to be worried about such. I guess it was the proverbial "final straw that broke the camel's back."
Oh God, I pray to God that there's nothing like the Laurel/Big Easy fiasco at this reunion. That was just ridiculous. While I do not condone anything Laurel said, I still am a little tired of the whole situation. Plus, more and more cast members are starting to come to Laurel's defense, claiming Big Easy started it all by spouting his mouth off to her first. So who knows.
Plus, I feel that Big Easy is totally milking this situation for all it's worth --- even still. He'll still tweet #teambigeasy and thanked MTV for showing a flashback of Laurel taunting him. It's like...dude, it's been a year. For something that hurt him so much, you'd think he'd want MTV to STOP showing it over and over again. He loves the attention - and it makes me side with Laurel a little more because it makes him look kind of stupid.

Eric is STILL going on about that? I'm gonna agree with you there. He just want the attention. Let. It. Go.

Yeah and I'm pretty sure he wanted to be a guest on Derrick's podcast again to discuss Laurel after the Laurel/Paula episode of Rivals aired. That night he kept posting #teambigeasy and he was thanking MTV for the shoutout through flashback. It was pretty pathetic.

It's Eric's only possible redemption after his pathetic performance in Mexico.
Laurel may have lacked tact and common sense in both her timing and her remarks, but I don't think I fundamentally disagree with where she was coming from.
#norespect

He's pathetic. I obviously thought Laurel was wrong in that situation of course but he handled it so badly that he looked horrible too afterwards.
[QUOTE=Buck05;270346]Jenn is so annoying now - what the hell happened to her? Sheesh. She used to be cool but her head inflated when she got a little bit of power.[/QUOTE]
I agree, I've come to kind of dislike her. I get that she doesn't want her sex life all over TV, but if she's gonna go around talking *** like that about him on TV when they've been hooking up the whole time, and is then confronted about it and CONTINUES to lie and talk *** without any consideration for how she's embarrassing Adam, she asked for it. If she was smart, she would have said, "I'm sorry I said that, that was at the beginning and then, as you see in interviews, I grew to like Adam, so I'm sorry about what I said and I don't think Adam's a creep." That way, Adam wouldn't feel as embarrassed and Jenn could still keep the details private.
I am kind of confused as to why Jenn went after Laurel, by the way. Jenn's gotten on my nerves the past couple challenges, but to her credit, she usually doesn't butt into other people's business, and doesn't seem interested in taking sides so long as you don't involve her.
The spoilers made it sound like only one person stood on the rock all night which seemed so unfair, and I thought they DQ if they fell, was glad to see they could switch or stay up together.

That was the first thing I thought too. When I saw the rules I was a little less outraged than when I heard it when it was first reported. It still probably sucked.
I paused it on the rules though and it said that if they fell off they had to get their partner to say "I Forgive You" before they switched places. That was pretty dumb.

LMAO how corny, wtf is the point of that? Lol I didnt hear anyone say it though.
Before the reunion Adam in interviews was being very respectful towards Jenn and would not answer the question as to whether he slept with her or not. I think at the reunion he was sick of her lying and embarassing him and probably had a little alcohol in him (he seems wild when drunk) and let it all out. Jenn lying the first place just kind of set herself up for that. Because now she's just going to look stupid with everyone being on Adam's side about that (except Tyler and Paula).
I thought after her Real World season, she was shameless, but maybe that made her more sensitive to being portrayed that way.
Odds they show the clip from cutthroat when Laurel yelled at Easy? I'd say 98 percent chance :(....I like the aftershows, the reunions they all seem too drunk and is a non stop shouting match. I could see the Laurel stuff and the bullying with Cara Maria taking up a good 20 minutes of the reunion. Both already been discussed to death on aftershows

Sometimes things make sense to you when you're sitting around a conference table in Van Nuys, CA, making bold plans, but in the light of day at the challenge site, there's that one thing than makes no sense.
The great idea has a thousand fathers, while the failed idea has not a one.

I've had enough of her. She used to be cool but she's gotten really irritating the last couple challenges. If she doesn't want her sex life mentioned then she shouldn't hook up with all these people on national TV. I couldn't care less who she hooks up with but it's kind of ridiculous to hook up on every single challenge on national TV for the whole world to see and expect no one to to take any notice.
[QUOTE=Camille;274123]has anyone seen the promos for the reunion? Someone tweeted about it showing part of the Jenn/Adam argument.[/QUOTE]
I saw one last night; Adam mentioned the two hooking up in the Miami airport bathroom. The promo ended with a shot of Jenn's shocked face. El oh el.

I was hoping they'd show some promos last night while i was watching JS. Hopefully they'll put up a sneak peek.
To my understanding they show Adam the clip of when Jenn was telling the girls how gross he is and then to add onto that the denying. I don't know about you guys but I'd let her have it in every way possible. That like saying it's ok to let her do what she wants without repercussions. Ok sure, two wrongs don't make a right, but say your peace and be done with it. Which is what Adam did. Good for him because she said some ugly things about him. Played with him and led him on. He genually liked her and if she didn't like him in return she needed to stop it.

I think jenn genuinely liked adam as well though. She just wasn't serious at first. And btw, I just re-watched rw paris and to say that Adam is creepy and ***** is an understatement. I still like him though, and i think jenn does as well.
[QUOTE=Camille;274123]has anyone seen the promos for the reunion? Someone tweeted about it showing part of the Jenn/Adam argument.[/QUOTE]
That seems to be the main one. Sounded like Jenn was being regretful about him and being a sore loser.
[QUOTE=raph12;271841]Actually Kenny beat him because the point was to wrestle your opponent on his back but despite going down CT didn't drop it and took offence to Kenny winning... Then after a nose bleed he was upset and thought Kenny made him look like a ***** in front of everyone and then tried to create a situation out of it, which Kenny didn't back down from.
Btw I find it funny how Kenny's partners all decide to choke in the Finals (Tina, Laurel, Wes, etc...), it seems like he saves himself for the Finals everytime only to have his teammate slow him down.[/QUOTE]
You need to watch FM2 final again because Laurel didn't choke. She actually did more than any girl.
Promo were shown after final episode, in fact, majorily of it was Johnny and CT yelling, CT saying he is sick of them talking #### behind his back and he is sick and tired of justifying himself to any of them. And then Adam calling out Jenn in front of all of them. Can't wait.
I was watching some interviews with Kenny regarding the show, he was saying how CT is a weirdo, he sat in the rafters above and listened to the mob's conversation. He was listening in to what they would say about him.
After watching the finale, i didnt like it. Wasn't fair for anybody. Didn't really matter how well you did because even if you got a 1 minute head start, pfft, so what. it came down to a tracking device. Not a person ability. Also, to stand on a rock and stay up all night? come on really? lame lame lame. Sorry, the show was one of the best but when it came down to the finale, nope.. big failure.

I saw a commercial for it a couple days ago and after they put up the logo listing the air date and time, they showed one last image of Kenny cradling Wes' head in his hands and smiling. It had a very cute "awwww" quality to it and I'm curious to see what brought it on because it wasn't mentioned in the recap a couple weeks ago. I'm most anxious to see Jenn be on the hot seat because she's usually the one dishing it out to people. So in honor of her being a cheerleader: gimme a K, gimme an A, gimme an R, gimme an M, gimme an A... what's that spell? KARMA!!

The rivals Reunion preview. the little commercial thing. its the Canadian version though. So it's aboot as good as I can get.
The US one that I've seen is very similar to that, except after Adam brought up the bathroom in Miami it cut to a shot of Jenn with her mouth open looking horrified/embarrassed/shocked.
