Jamie's best moment for me is when he yelled "ELLEN...COME OUT AND PLAYYYY!!"I never understood why they put him on the Rookies team in the Gauntlet 2 though. Did they just end up having too many vets?
I have no Idea. He was supposed to be on The Vet Team but I think a slip up happened or something. But hey it worked out because Jamie had is 3rd win.
Supposedly (and this is the reason why they ended up doing Fresh Meat), all the people on Gauntlet 2 were the only people who accepted that Challenge. Everyone else either declined or the timing didn't line up. They didn't have enough Rookies so they put Jamie on their team.
I just know they had at least 1 rookie male willing to come on to take that spot but I could see it....they literally pulled Jo out of thin air so they had to be scraping.

I think they could've used Shayne from Road Rules Down Under. I remember him wanting to do challenges.
And on another note: Given how. Gauntlet 2 turned out I would think that would encourage them to not use fan favorites/regulars so damn much bit as was seen in the next period of challenges that just wasn't the case.

she was the reason team sydney got sent home so i dont think we'll be seeing her anytime soon
what happened that disqualified them? I originally heard one of them was injured but it sounds like it was something more than that.
Kellyanne stated on her live Q&A that one of the teammates had an illness. This also connects to the rumor from way back when that someone had a heart problem. Since everyone but Ashli has been back its pretty safe to assume something was up with her.
I don;t know if you watch the BrAIN Candy Podcast, but I thought KellyAnne said she has a heart problem. Figured it was much worse during the filming of BoTS2, which is why she wasn't allowed to participate on that Season, but okay on Bloodlines and Rivals.
PUCK.This guy is a terrible person and one of the most horrible people to ever be on television. But in spite all of that he was a great character in his lone challenge appearance which was Battle of the Sexes(and if you haven't seen that season then i highly recommend it as it's one of the single best challenges ever produced) and he one of the highlights of that season. During his time on that season the following happened: He spit in David's(Los Angeles) face, got spat on back by David, somehow got everyone rallied around him to stay, then went on and had one hell of a rivalry with Ellen(One of the best this show has ever had IMO), got married on the show, threatened to kick Ellens ***, then later on he just destroyed the men's villa with a Ma-che-te filled rage and left like a theif in the night. Keep in mind all of this shit happened in 6/7 episodes! He was more entertaining and interesting in just a few episodes than alot of people who go on to do an ***load of challenges(Leroy and Backpack I'm looking at you). And it's crazy that given how awful this guy is he was a better character overall than people like Knight/Jordan/Backpack whom are ******** but not nearly as interesting and dynamic as Puck was. That is a testatment to how they use to do casting back in the day. Too bad we don't get shit like that now.But like I said before..Puck was awful but he was a damn good character for better or worse and he was just one of the things that Made Sexes 1 the excellent challenge it was.
HAHA ma-che-te - was that Christina who said that? I'm blanking. With a MA-CHE-TE!!
Could he be a huge ****? Yep. Is he probably your favorite person? Nope.
But Jordan gave the Challenge some life when it was much needed. First of all, he was highly competitive, overly cocky, dramatic, but all about THE GAME. He wasn't like the others the last few Challenges who are there to get drunk screentime and maybe get third if they're lucky. He went against the grain of Backpack, and even though it didn't work out in his favor, it was nice to see someone who had the balls to actually compete and not be scared. Jordan and Marlon were easily the easiest to root for in the Rivals II final, he was awesome for going against Bananas on FA even though throwing himself in backfired, and he ultimately won Exes II in a season full of good competitiors. He apparently retired now, which I think is smart to go out on top and not become another Bananas on every Challenge, but I honestly miss Jordan and the competitive spirit he brought to the Challenge. (side note: I can't remember why he didn't wanna throw in Nany&Bananas on Exes II, but I do remember him telling Sarah "NO", which doesn't make sense to me).
This season is one of my all time favorites. The cast was very atypical from previous seasons, it gave people who usually wouldn't get the spotlight some time in the sun, some good drama, great missions and eliminations too. It was also kinda bittersweet because it was the end of an era..The end of the Real World/Road Rules era of this show as the very next season gave us people from he outside.
1st thing I like about this season was the cast. As I said before it was very atypical and kinda diverse, You had regulars like Beth/Aneesa/Katie. People who were still fairly new like Derrick/Brad/Robin, people who did challenges on a more irregular schedule like Syrus/David(Seattle)/Timmy/Jisela/Jamie(New Orleans 1)/Ruthie/Julie(New Orleans 1). Then you have fresh Rookies like Kina/Randy/Danny(X-TREME)/Landon/MJ/Jillian, Then you had Jo whom was random as shit and man..did she make a hell of an impression. It didn't really have alot of the regulars that people have come to expect like CT/Coral/Veronica/Tina/Abram/Miz/Darrell and this season had showed that you didn't need those guys in order to have a good season. Just have a good variety of personalities and you'll be fine. If only they went forward with that...
2nd thing I like about this challenge is the drama and great moments this season had. Jo's freakout on the first episode, Aneesa Vs Cara(Suck my **** *****!), Beth beaing Ruthie for team captain, The Revival of the Beth vs Montana fued, Beth in General, The Cross Alliance drama, Kina vs Cara in the Gauntlet, Ace stepping up his preformance game, Ace wearing a speedo so much drama and great moments happened that it kept me enertained from beginning to end.
I liked The eliminations, Mainly Name that Coconut, I really wish they would bring that one back, Plus Reversre Tug of War, and Spot on.
Derrick-I think this season was his best showing. He was outspoken and had no issue going in a competing. He went into The Gauntlet so many times and beat people who were so much bigger than he was..Ace/Syrus/Brad. Not to mention he was a damn good captain and busted his *** in missions. It was so ******* heartbreaking that he lost that last Gaunlet because if anyone deserved to be in the final damnit it was him. I mean when he lost people were crying and hugging me because they knew what the audience knew..that he deserved it more than anyone.
The next thing I loved about this season was the back and forth the teams had. Usually when it comes to team challenges one team usually dominates resulting in a lopsided competition but That wasn't the case this season and it was refreshing. Both teams were strong so vets would win one challenge and the rookies would win the next one, Rookies would go on a winning streak then the Vets would go back to winning etc. It made it so when the final came around it was going to be a ******* battle because BOTH teams were strong and could take the W. It made the competition interesting and worth caring about. I think I was more invested in the competition on this season than any other because of that.
The Rookies Winning-I always root for the newer people so to see The New School come out on top was amazing.
As I said before this season marked the end of an era: It was the last challenge where it would consist of just Legit Real World/Road Rules castmembers. Because the next season would consist of a group of people who would go on to **** these shows up. It made this challenge all the more special.
But Overall..Gauntlet 2 was a damn good challenge. Now and forever.
i feel like Alton underperformed on Seasons 2 because like most of the vets from the golden era that returned found themselves with the numbers against them and this new generation casting them aside. It happened with Coral on G3, it happened with Katie on Cutthroat, it happened with Wes on Seasons 2 as well, it happened with Darrel/Landon on FM2 (everyone ganged on the Darrell) and it will happened to other returning vets which is a shame because i would have loved to see prime Alton on Seasons 2 but you could see that Frank/Zach were afraid/threatned by him. I liked how Alton connected with Dustin even tho they were seasons appart.
This is why we need another balanced challenge like Cutthroat with a mix of the 3 eras so older cast members don't feel pushed against a wall.
These two killed it on Exes 2. They were the perfect storm...A smart, strategic player and someone who was a good competior. They could play the game and make moves that benefit them and win missions when they need to. And they did just that over the season. Wes handled the politics and all Theresa had to do was just preform well. They were responsible for Backpack going out early this season(only for his ***** *** to return ugh). Not to mention throw he right people under the bus at the right time. But toward the end of the seaosn their game came crashing down as Backpack returned and production ******* them out of the game bascially. Theresa got to return due to Nia ******* up and got to ran the final. If she had Wes they would've won.
She has one challenge appearence under her belt and she wasn't exactly a sandout character. But she was a nice presence when she was show and it's good that she got a win on her first season.
Oh and I loved her little thing with CJ. Those two need to be a team for Exes 3.
He hosted the first two Inferno seasons and IMO he was the best host out of the 5 we've had. He seemed like a really cool *** dude and had a bit of personality. Not to mention that him riding this Bike all through the inferno house during the intro of that season then being credited at the end will never not be ******* perfection. It really sucks that he's not longer with us because like I said..he seemed like and awesome guy. RIP.
I like this elimination for some reason. Just seeing two people struggle to pull each other their way to get the flag was perfection in all it's simple glory. This was also the elimination where Beth became team captain by beating Ruthie which is one of my favorite moments.
ASHLEY(SAN DIEGO 2)She has one challenge appearence under her belt and she wasn't exactly a sandout character. But she was a nice presence when she was show and it's good that she got a win on her first season.Oh and I loved her little thing with CJ. Those two need to be a team for Exes 3.

NICK.
He was attractive, cool, and he started a ******* movement! Would like to see him back but it's not really likely at this point.
Who?
HAHA ma-che-te - was that Christina who said that? I'm blanking. With a MA-CHE-TE!!
^^^ Ayanna.
YESSSSS! That's right! I can totally hear her voice on it now, thanks! Classic.
Speaking of Ayanna she'll end up in this thread at some point.
EDIT: Scratch that I might do it later lol
Okay. You'll do her more justice anyways.
Whoever does it I am here for it. She has SO MANY memorable moments from all of her stints.

Jordan was great. Wish he and Marlon didn't stop challenges especially with how weak the competition is. Reilly sucks compared to them

David's comment on Jodi saying "This chick is about to steamroll the cast cause she is horrrrnay!"

Tacos.
Alton best team captain on a challenge show ever.
i feel like Alton underperformed on Seasons 2 because like most of the vets from the golden era that returned found themselves with the numbers against them and this new generation casting them aside. It happened with Coral on G3, it happened with Katie on Cutthroat, it happened with Wes on Seasons 2 as well, it happened with Darrel/Landon on FM2 (everyone ganged on the Darrell) and it will happened to other returning vets which is a shame because i would have loved to see prime Alton on Seasons 2 but you could see that Frank/Zach were afraid/threatned by him.

But yeah..these two were a good team.
They were robbed.

Oh and I loved her little thing with CJ. Those two need to be a team for Exes 3.
Ashley K is awesome. Give me boring but solid competitors like Ashley K and Emily over nonsense, shit stirrers like Camila, Amanda, and Simone.
