[QUOTE=tjhallow;166373]I didn't even see the intro? Was there an intro?[/QUOTE]
They didn't want to spoil Ev's appearance. Kind of like how [I]Inferno 3[/I] had a watered-down intro because of CT being out and Derrick coming in after-the-fact.

[QUOTE=RW561015;166367]Insider, is that Kenny's middle name, or is that a joke? Nothing really wrong with it if it is, but it just sounded funny how Mark said it.[/QUOTE]
It's not.
Yeah, that makes sense. I figured they must have wanted to work Ev's appearance into the show when they didn't put her bio up with the others early on.
I thought it was interesting Cara said Wes is already submissive, when he always try to come off like he is in charge.
Loved the Kenneth Mario, even though it's not his real name, still very funny.
In regards to Cara Maria, may I point out the examples of two before her:
1) Ev, who was likewise eliminated first on FM but has been one of the strongest females ever.
2) Jodi, who doesn't deal well with stress but was THE top dog of The Duel I.
I really hope they'll bring her back, just for her potential.

1. Ev was paired with Danny, which is basically the reason they lost. Darrell is no slouch.
They lost the Exile because of Cara Maria. Plain and simple.
I really enjoyed the episode and the after show was hysterical. Mark is such a brilliant host. I do wish Darrell could have been on the show longer however.
[QUOTE=molds13;166389]So I guess the two teams sent in have no chance to take themselves out by winning the next challenge?
That's unfortunate.[/QUOTE]
Yea, that element definitely made things more interesting, this makes things a lot more about people liking you instead of competition.
Good premiere... I'm already sick of Wes and Kenny though, and even more sick of Laurel.
I thought it was funny how Danny picked Sandy... It's like Grease!

Ev was sent home early because she had a sucky partner. Cara had one of the two best guys there.
As far as Jodi goes, I don't remember her that well. From what I remember, I'm bot really getting the same vibe.

Yeah, Jodi doesn't strike me as a freak in the sheets either.
I dunno, I'm not really a big fan of Darrell and Cara Maria was getting too much screen time for my liking, so I wouldn't mind not seeing her again. She didn't impress me.

That, and she misread the puzzle that could have gotten them the win.
I haven't seen the episode yet, just what I've heard, but my point was that sometimes someone who can be really dominant in certain challenges lose their head other times. Jodi was strong but lost eliminations because she couldn't keep her head straight. When it came to the Duel, she was good enough to win missions so she wouldn't be in that kind of a situation again. Maybe Cara Maria would do better in a Duel-like challenge, and maybe she's just a rookie who can't let her heart control her head.
Ok...I'll shut up now until I actually see the episode.

Good idea. I have a feeling you may be singing a different tune.
OMGGGGG I just saw Darrells little run with the binoculars..and I told yall Katelynn would be gold on a challenge. Now, all we need is Devyn. Those girls don't take any nonsense.
I love Fresh Meat. Very interesting premiere, because there is actually gameplay involved and the newbies didn't get picked off right away. I'm starting to like the new FM too! And the preview looks great.
Remember when Evelyn said it was 4 years since her debut? Was I the only one thinking she could have graduated college in that time? But I'm glad she was there.

I wish they'd bring that element back. I miss the life shield!
[QUOTE=molds13;166401]Yeah, Jodi doesn't strike me as a freak in the sheets either.[/QUOTE]
Wasn't she kind of.. um, [I]friendly[/I] on Gauntlet I?
I think that Darrell and Cara Maria should have stayed. I think that they should've gone against Wes and Mandi. Kenny, Laurel, and Wes are already annoying me, I think it's messed up that Kenny turned his back on Darrell and trusted his enemy Wes. It was nice seeing Evelyn there and a surprise from Luke when he said he wanted Coral to come out of retirement. Maybe she will, I love Coral. Darrell said that he was going to retire and that he has a child onthe way, but he said that if there was a Duel 3 he would definitely come back. I love Jillian, I'm so happy that she and Pete won. It would have been better if it was Wes and Mandi instead of Darrell and Cara Maria. Hopefully someone will take out Wes.
