If they promoted the show correctly bringing back old schoolers would be huge for the show and ratings. Ratings have dropped over the years meaning the majority of the fans who used to watch the show don't anymore. They're older and have moved on/don't care about the new cast and the drama. If people who watched the show years ago saw that old schoolers/their favorites/people they know were going to be on a new season they would probably tune in. The only problem is these people most likely do not watch MTV anymore so the promotion would have to go a lot farther than it does now. Plus, a lot of regulars would still be cast so casual fans would still watch. Also, they would learn/meet the old schoolers as if they were knew, and learn to like/hate them.
Old schoolers wouldnt make much of an impact on ratings, if you think this show would get big ratings again just because they are putting people that were popular back in the day to people that at this point doesnt care about watching MTV and MTV doesnt really care about that demographic either then you would be dissapointed.
If a show like teen mom that always double/some cases triple the ratings of the challenge since it was introduce is only getting .9-1.4 now days half what it used to get then the challenge would still get around the same number as is getting now. Those girls have 4 times the followers of some of the most popular challengers (ct/diem/bananas/Nany) and obviously way way more than the old schoolers. So its easier for them to "promote" and ratings are struggling compared to other years.
I dont see MTV never going all out promotion wise for a reality show ever again, I think its obvious they are focusing more in scrip it shows. Looks at the promotion the channara chronicles have been getting since october and look at the promotion Realworld/Challenge/ayto gets for only 3-4 weeks. They would stick to their old ways especially after budget cuts from viacom. I wouldnt be surprised if they dont have a reunion for bloodlines.
Yeah Old Schoolers coming back isn't going to save anything. Abe was in the promos before the premiere and I didn't see any hype about him on social media. Most of you really just want these people back because you miss them but thinking they'll save the show is farfetched. **** it was like Abe was talking in Chinese tonight when he said what season of Road Rules he was on.
Don't get me wrong I'd like to see Beth and Darrell but I'm not trying to see a bunch of Old Schoolers. I'd prefer they return the way Alton, Trishelle, and KellyAnne has.

I think thats what people want honestly(or at least me. At this point I would like for them to cast fresh new RW castmembers instead of these Ayto ********)

Wasnt chinese to me...But then again I actually know what Road Rules is and actually watched it.

Ayto dont bring anything exciting to the show, they are nothing but filler. I dont mind them but dont skip over vets that want to come back and cast the ayto people.

So.. There's a possibility of those dusty ragdolls making a return? Or is that just an opinion.
Bloodlines is comical, its like a awful parody compared of what the challenges use to be. Just look at the old school females vs what we have today. Terrible.
But ancient vets that supposed to be in recent challenges, they were in recent challenges. If old school people really wanted to came back they will be there tbh.
I'm one of the very few that likes Dario I guess lol. Glad he speaks his mind and not just allowing these people to dictate his game. Next week looks awesome

I can't believe Dario made it so far this season even with Bananas there considering they don't really like each other. Probably cause he has Nicole or maybe they slayed the jungle.

I think they should re-run entire seasons of RW and RR for the newer generations to see. At this point, they would be like entirely new shows. Then re-run the challenges and everyone would be up-to-date. THEN do a new Challenge that mixes old school, middle era and new school and everyone would know who everyone is. At this point, what have they got to lose? And moving forward, it might renew interest in the RW/RR/Challenge.

Yeah, I'm glad the rookies have finally formed an alliance in a season.

Because he is a beast, plain and simple. Overall a good guy that people rooted for. He was actually asked to be on exes 2 and bloodlines. He devlined both, as far I know he is done for good.
Who would have been his partner on Exes 2? ****, I would love to see him back but he did go out on top winning 3/4 challenges so good for him.
He got calls for both Exes, being Shavonda his partner, on Exes both declined. I don't now if they tried to give him same partner on Exes II.

Realistically they are part of the casting pool, some will become regulars and others will do their debut. Not a fan of ayto being om the show, but thinking they will stop at this point is more of a fantasy than anything look at the rivals 3 cast. As people declined ayto will fill that spot.
Ew @ Danny/Melinda, Steven (who?), and Rachel/Veronica.
Danny and Melinda divorced that's gold for an exes theme, plus they'll be sent home early. Steven from Las Vegas, him and Trishelle hooked up (the one who slapped Shane), and Rachel/Veronica pair would be great plus they need to do another same-sex pairing.

Nothing can save this show, the ratings are shit and will continue to be. I would just rather see good competitors than the flops we have now

In my opinion the AYTO people did bring something to Bloodlines while a few Real Worlders were lackluster.

Only the Thristbucket did. The Twins haven't done shit(but I do appreciate that they hate Backpack though).

Battle of the Moms for The Challenge 29 pls!!!
Then Bananas mom would become a regular along with his cousin.
I believe Bananas is a mother too for someone. Cast him bmp
