People were talking about Nany/Jordan/Devyn/ During Free Agents. Those 3 made waves that season.

And Marie Brought something to Seasons. She was **** entertaining and that actually matters since this is Reality TV show and Drama and conflict are the main draw.

And I do think Another Seasons can work. It wouldn't be with all first timers and many of the people that were on the first one are now well known to the audience now. They're in a better position to do it now honestly.

I have no idea what you think any of those three did on Free Agents.  Cara & Laurel got far more air time than Nany/Devyn.  Jordan only got talked about because he foolishly flipped over all the cards like a ******* tool.  Without Bananas Jordan becomes irrelevant on FAs

Name something Marie did on Seasons--maybe I just don't recall because I've only watched that Season once

You and others would enjoy another Seasons but it won't work in terms of ratings

Nany got into it with Camilla and had her thing with Cohutta and she ****** Johnny. She was talked about aplenty and she had screentime. Devyn had her wig funeral and her commentary and she made it to the end and FINISHED. Jordan had his Laurel romance and his beef with Backpack. I dont get how you don't see how they contributed to that season..

Marie had a hand in the huge fight night, And she got into it with Zach.

And again Seasons can work for the reasons I stated.

Marie actually was interesting on seasons... Well at least when she got crazy that one time and pushed Derek AND Sam into that plant... That shit was funny. LOL

So, the best thing Marie did was fight with Derek & Sam...like I said, she didn't add anything.  She still should come back because she has potential but she didn't shine on Seasons at all.

Really no one added anything to me... She could've did alot, butit might've just got edited out.

In terms of ratings people thought an Exes 2 would work. I think a Seasons could work. 

You have Portland, Ex-Plosion, Skeletons 3 seasons that people are dying to see on the challenge more. This would give the right people a chance to be cast. People want more Saint Thomas representation but it seems like we can't get that anywhere else but we could on a Seasons. A hybrid San Diego team would be great. Back to Las Vegas is probably the most memborable and successful new school real world season they would be great to cast and good entertainment no matter who you cast. They can incorporate old schoolers too. Doing the Austin team again OR trying for Key West/Paris or just creating an Old School represented by 4 different seasons. They can even try for a Road Rules team but I feel like they may not get one due to the girls but you never know. Then you have Sydney, Hollywood, DC seasons that are fan favorites and cast members who have gotten ignored and people want to see them back. 

I definitely think it could work as now is the time to do it rather than the last time.

Marie had a hand in the huge fight night, And she got into it with Zach.

And again Seasons can work for the reasons I stated.

Nany had some screen time--but not as much as Cara and Laurel.  Devyn's commentary was forced and completely "unfunny" on Seasons, the wig funeral AGAIN wasn't original and she finished last in the final.  Devyn wasted a spot in that final unfortunately.  Jordan needed to veterans (Laurel & Backpack) to get any attention that season.  I didn't say they didn't add anything they just "weren't the stars of the season"....Laurel, Cara & Bananas were...predictable.

Marie was involved in one fight and argued with Zach--again, not a star of the season.  Barely got screen time and didn't do anything memorable.  Again, she should come back but she didn't live up to the hype surrounding her

Seasons can only work with the right cast if "by work" you mean ratings...a repeat of last time makes Season 27 the end of the show.  And they won't do seasons because that rules out Bananas.

Y'all are brainwashed by Bananas its so sad yet funny at the same time. And they can do it--> its called Team Old School. 4 old school RW seasons on one team. It could be Bananas/Ruthie or Trishelle/Aneesa/Brad or Nehemiah if they don't do Austin. Ace just to weaken the team a bit. Or they can even do CT. Maybe Coral instead of Aneesa. The her and Trishelle dynamic would be interesting. Beth but I doubt she do it if she had to work with them lol

The problem is they aren't going to get 4 people from Hollywood or DC or Key West or Paris (well, maybe) or Austin (maybe with Nehemiah & Lacey but that doesn't work)

In order for it to work they would have to land Skeletons, ExPlosion (unfortunately Jay & Jenna will be included so you're only getting 2 new ones), Portland (though I'm not sure they'd be willing to put Nia on Jordan on the same team after the sexual harrassment which makes that less interesting), Vegas 2 (though Dustin won't do a challenge with Cooke so that's problematic), San Diego (Zach, Brad, Robin & Sam???? is questionable), Road Rules (Mark, Darrell, Rachel & Tina????), Austin (Wes, Nehemiah?, Melinda and Lacey--yikes) & Old School (Bananas, CT, Aneesa & ??????)....this isn't exactly impressive.  Sydney isn't happening, the Hollywood girls are done, DC can't get 4 to save their lives.

Now--maybe a better idea is teams of two for Seasons but that, again, limits the cast

I don't know what next season will be but I'm thinking a team challenge based on rumors or individual

I completely disagree with Marie not bringing anything or adding to the show. You instanyl saw the inner-drama with the STT team and Marie/Trey were front and center for that. Marie had that awesome moment of telling the alliance to **** themselves in episode 4, stood up for Nany in the big house fights, got into it with Frank, Sam, and Derek on multiple occasions, had that weird moment where she insulted poor JD. She was easily one of my favorites of the season and imo Devyn was great on Seasons 2, but she came across rehearsed/scripted on FA. Nothing wrong with practicing your confessionals beforehand, but don't make it sound so obvious.

I would be so down for another Seasons since I really liked the format but with the right cast. Since last time it was so many rookies it leaves room for all the vets to be on and for there to be different teams. The problem with the first Seasons was not only were there too many rookies but 75% of them added absolutely nothing to the show. The only interesting people on that season were Zach, Frank, Nany, Dustin, Marie. Then somewhat Alton, Devyn, Sarah, Trishelle, Jonna. Everyone else was just kind of just there thats why I think it didn't work besides them all being rookies. When more than have the cast are typically fillers are other seasons thats a problem.

The her and Trishelle dynamic would be interesting. Beth but I doubt she do it if she had to work with them lol 

I can't stand Bananas but I can admit the truth.  Jordan's obsession with beating Bananas cost him horribly in Free Agents and thank God Sarah was smart enough to get rid of him before the final instead of caring more about beating him in the final like Jordan

Old School is fine but we all know that means CT & Bananas on a team together.  They'll probably give them Aneesa and another very solid girl to ensure they stay as long as possible (Jenn if they could convince her would make sense) and then people would be mad about that.  I don't think they could get 2 girls from Paris

For explosion they would drop Jay , if Brian was to accepted. To my understand they would want Cory and Brian on the same show together again.

Vegas 2- Dustin doesnt have a problem to do it with Cooke. The one with the problem on seasons 2 was Heather not him.

san diesgo- Sam is open to do a challenge and same with priscilla.

Watching RW: Brooklyn for the first time yesterday... I really wanna see Scott and Ryan on here.. Baya is shorter than Devyn... Which isn't bad but.. The girl just doesn't look athlethic. But you never know...

I think Baya is superfit now.

Baya would definitely give these girls a run for their money. She's athletic as **** and in fantastic shape now. I bet Devyn could convince her to say yes since they are really close.

 

Baya will not do a challenge.  Sorry.  Her priorities are elsewhere.

So we'd be looking at

ExPlosion--Cory, Brian, Jenna & ?????

Vegas 2--Leroy, Dustin, Nany & Cooke

San Diego--Brad, Zach, Robin & Priscilla/Sam...or just Diego 2 with Priscilla, Sam, Zach & Nate/Frank?

I mean, that's better than the alternative I suppose

If seasons 3 was going to happened in a production standpoint, they would have want Cooke/Dustin/Heather on the same team over their "love triangle" on vegas. But like Baya , I have a feeling Heather priorities are some where else and not near a challenge house.

Yeah, I don't consider Heather an option unfortunately

Leah has expressed interest very recently & Mallory was interested around a year or two ago...don't know about now but those are two. Simon is also interested.

Leah & Mallory are the only two options...I just don't see that working out but I'd be cool with it.  I don't think they'd have any problem getting a 2nd guy.  Too bad Christina won't do a challenge--I think she would have been great entertainment

Leah does have a child so that plays into BMP's "we don't want people who have kids" BS but who knows, they'll do it if they want CT bad enough I guess.

I never saw the Paris season but I have seen clips & Christina couldn't stand CT lol I would've liked to have seen how she handled him on the Challenges.

Last I heard they really want Ashley M. for the next challenge. And why do you keep putting Jenna on the list kvm she is not gonna become a regular. I could see them going with Jamie. Her and Ashley had that little problem. 

They have contacted DC, Hollywood, and Sydney cast members so they are working on something lol 

I think some would be interested in coming back I really do. Maybe not from Hollywood but def from DC and Sydney. I heard Danny/Wes/Melinda/Lacey were called but Danny said no. I would prefer Nehemiah but yeah. Key West or Paris won't work but oh well-- Team Old School could solve a lot of problems and a great way to maybe get Coral back. San Diego hybrid is possible. I think Brad and Robin are up for one more and so is Zach/Sam or Priscilla.

Mallory is a mom too. This whole idea of not casting parents is ridiculous.

Baya will not do a challenge.  Sorry.  Her priorities are elsewhere.

Smart woman.

Mmmmmm because Frank, Steven, Arissa, Trishelle, Brad, Robin, Cameran, and Randy with a bunch of new schoolers would have helped ratings how? They are more unfamiliar than people from SD2, NOLA2, and Cancun at the time. They would have been old and out of place in the eyes of some viewers. Even with them ratings would have been the same. 

Do we really need to compare their ages to the "new" schoolers again?  For example, Cameran is 2 years older than Leroy--TWO.  Rachel is all of 4

Brad, Robin, Alton (not Steven), Trishelle, Derrick, Rachel, Darrell & Katie would have definitely helped ratings.  There's no quesiton that ratings would have been better and that's why Johnny and CT will now always be on.  Wes left early and they were stuck without people from the past and they have accepted that doesn't work.

Cameran being only 2 years older is actually kinda interesting.

Leah does have a child so that plays into BMP's "we don't want people who have kids" BS but who knows, they'll do it if they want CT bad enough I guess.

I never saw the Paris season but I have seen clips & Christina couldn't stand CT lol I would've liked to have seen how she handled him on the Challenges.

Was this recent? I had no clue she was a mother now.

But yup, according to BMP you instantly become wallpaper the minute you pop a baby out. You can no longer relate to the 12 year olds who MTV/BMP want to cater to because you had your child at 27-35 years of age and not 16 years.

 If seasons 3 was going to happened in a production standpoint, they would have want Cooke/Dustin/Heather on the same team over their "love triangle" on vegas. But like Baya , I have a feeling Heather priorities are some where else and not near a challenge house.

Yeah, I don't consider Heather an option unfortunately

Heather was just accepted for grad school.

In other news, Katie is into the 31st week of her pregnancy.

Cameran being only 2 years older is actually kinda interesting.

It shows you how much casting has changed

Not saying this is what us viewers would want, but isn't it possible for AYTO 1 and AYTO 2 to be on if they do a Battle of the Seasons? Or combine and just make one AYTO team? Personally I wouldn't prefer that but is that at all a possibility?

Of course. 

Whhattt, Marie was awesome on BOTS IMO. Loveeedd herr. 

Why would you want Alton on there, he's a quitter., Alton and Trishelle were unbearable. If anything it should've been Dustin/Leroy/Nany/Heather.

Marie added nothing to Seasons--she has potential but she didn't really do anything

Alton & Trishelle are now quitters but they weren't at the time...there should have been two Vegas team...that should have been the second team (though it was Cooke not Heather if I recall correctly)

Why wouldn't Alton quit had he been cast with Frank/Arissa? 

I didn't say he wouldn't have--they just had no way of knowing at the time.  Put guys like Darrell, Brad & Derrick in the house with him he may not have wanted out so badly

A quitter is a quitter. He was probably the bigget dissapointment on BOTS. They should've casted Leroy instead. 

God no.  Leroy is boring and imo has added nothign to any of the challenges.  Alton is 20 times better then Leory.

I feel like people give Alton too hard of a time for his stint on Seasons 2. Hopefully he'll come back & show everybody that the old Alton is still around & can still destroy the challenges lol

If it's anyone that doesn't need to get casted it's Trishelle's punk ***. That ***** made a bad name for herself her last 2 seasons. Had my girl Nany step up into a suicide mission when she ******* lost, then quit on Sarah because of HER actions. Trashelle ugh. IDK why I brought her up lol probably because I saw Alton's name...

Has BMP said they wont cast mothers, or is that just assumed?  

I'd love some random surprises like Mallory or Leah...I loved them on Inferno 1.  

 

How long do the normally take them to start taking the second round of calls?
