[QUOTE=bluehatchet;458747]Bringing old cast members back isn't going to boost ratings. They had their time and it's over. We can't expect all the vets to come back cause the ugly truth is we might never see Darrell & Rachel again.[/QUOTE] Why would bringing in a bunch of rookies from a show that very little people who watch the challenge know about bring ratings? Are you the one fans probably won't even watch, why would they even care if its just 2 people from the show....

Lol seriously guys... I know its annoying because you would rather have real world related people but if anyone saw AYTO and knew the cast you would all not be that upset. They could become your favorite competitors. Give em a chance. :love_heart:
To be honest the older viewers (myself included) should've been done a long time ago lol but when you've been keeping up with it for so long its kinda hard (& sad to see the road it's gone/going down). Hell the only reason i'm even keeping up with this one is to see how well Leroy/Nia do.

I'm talking to my friend who never watch the challenge and they're BEYOND excited to start watching the challenge cause AYTO cast members are gonna be on

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;458754]Never, they don't deserve a chance or to be on the show in the first place[/QUOTE] It's fans like this that are gonna deteriorate the shows ratings.

I'm still sad to find out that Danny and Melinda are not on it. And Hailey/Thomas getting eliminated so early :(
[QUOTE=Challenge 17;458707]no it won't, the loyal fans will hate it and the are you the one fans will be confused by the challenge and probably not even watch.[/QUOTE][COLOR="#0000CD"]Seems to me this season of the Challenge was hard to cast in terms of numbers. Yes, Trey wanted to play but I think everyone here thought he was a snoozefest. Plus, he was not the "company guy" on Afterbuzz.I don't think he got Brownie points for those appearances. I really believe Diem had to be lobbied hard to appear. Loyal fans are dwindling in numbers. I bet the RR fan base had the same reaction when the RW was added all those eons ago. To be honest, I've never see AYTO and could care less who comes to the Challenge from it. I will watch nonetheless because the people I like ARE on it. Plus, I'd want to see what the newbies do anyway. [/COLOR]
But from what I remember Are You The One got better ratings than Free Agents...possibly Rivals 2 but don't quote me on that so people DO know about that show.

Unlike a lot of viewers, I watch the challenges for the competition and am bored to tears by the monotonous melodrama that gets played out every season. And could these potential new challengers withstand a 2-day final?

Not as well CT/Diem but good enough to see a final.
[QUOTE=GraffitiSoul;458761]But from what I remember Are You The One got better ratings than Free Agents...possibly Rivals 2 but don't quote me on that so people DO know about that show.[/QUOTE] Okay people do but many challenge fans don't, a lot of challenge fans only watch it and real world on MTV

[QUOTE=bluehatchet;458757]It's fans like this that are gonna deteriorate the shows ratings.[/QUOTE] We're just responding the way loyal fans should when they're being dismissed
[QUOTE=bluehatchet;458755]I love Nia & Leroy!![/QUOTE] One of my biggest unpopular opinions is that I love me some Nia lol but I don't think she'll be doing too many more of these...and unless some classic vets come back I really have no reason to keep watching so they can pretty much add people off the street on the show for all I care.

[QUOTE=bluehatchet;458766]If Devyn could handle that finale anyone can.[/QUOTE] She couldn't handle it

[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;458764]Me too! I get nervous thinking about them because I want them to do so well!

Bananas/CT/Zach and some others reactions to AYTO cast members being on the challenge will be priceless.
Brittany and Adam [ATTACH]6909[/ATTACH]
[QUOTE=kvm1977;458785]And they're not attractive[/QUOTE] Adam is perfect lol
Ok - I know everyone is excited with these latest developments and everyone wants to give their opinion but we are approaching 30 pages in roughly 6hrs!!! Opinions are totally off topic. Once again, I understand this is a huge development BUT we need to re-group.
