The only ones who are in a contract are the season 15 & 16 girls (maybe season 14 as well but theirs should be ending soon) so the rest are fair game.I also believe if Bravo pulled off Battle of The Network Reality Stars & E! pulled off Kill Reality, MTV should be able to easily do it but they won't of course.

You do realize both of those showers were like 10 years or so ago? Things are a lot different now. Also MTV as a network is struggling so the reason they are adding people from AYTO on The Challenge is so both shows can benefit from each other. They hope people who watch AYTO will start watching The Challenge since people from the show might be on the next season. They hope fans of The Challenge will watch AYTO so they can get to know the possible new rookies. It just doesn't make sense to bring in a random group of girls from a failing reality show.

& that shit is not happening on either front. Ratings have went NOWHERE for either show.

As far the Bravo/E! thing: I know....honestly, it should be easier to do something like that now since it's basically 2 corporations that own everything. It's basically just a thing that if they really want it to happen, it'll happen but they don't want it to...yet. I could see it happening years down the road though.

As for the AYTO thing, that's not going anyway anytime soon & if anything it's about to come to a head later on this year. Vevmo is NOT the only site/forum/blog/anything that is against them. My thing is, cast the RIGHT ones & keep them at a minimum. They're already on shaky ground with their inclusion so in their smart minds, they want to force people to like them by including 10 of them. Then casting nobodies when people like Scali, Shanley, Jacy, Ryan & even Layton have yet to get on one. If they're declining, so be it but if that's not the case then *** are they doing?

Correction: None of them bring entertainment. And so ******* what if they're no different? That doesn't mean they should be on the show. I mean if we're going to go that route then any hot young 20-something should be on the show then. They're no different than RW/BL/ATYO right? So they should definetly be on.And you would want to watch thristbucket and It? Honestly to me they're no better than Camilla.

Well that's your opinion but I was entertained by the AYTO people this season which is better than I can say with the ones we got during Exes 2. I also wouldn't have a issue if they decided to do a Fresh Meat 3 and add more twenty-somethings on the show if they bring entertainment. I personally find the new people more entertaining than Leroy kissing *** every season and Camila fighting about the dumbest things she can think of.

******* that look like cuttlefish.

I wouldnt watch bgc in the challenge, I think thats a horrible idea.

it's no worse than AYTO being on the challenge.

No because it's a different network and they can only pull girls from the show. AYTO is similar to RW, young, fun, hot, dumb and dramatic twenty year olds...just imagine them being from the real world.

I mean I'm all for new people myself. It's not like I want to see the same shit but I'd just rather them be from RW because that's what this show is supposed to be: Various Real Worlders(and Road Rulers too) get together to interact. All these outsiders taint that and really defeat the point of this show(and the regualrs do too to a certain extent..A show like this is not suppose to have regulars. Each season's cast is supposed to be as different as possible no the same recycled on every time).

I honestly don't know why they haven't gone the Fresh Meat 3 route yet, whether it's all randoms or fresh rookies from RW/RR that have been overlooked over the years. Ratings is not a viable excuse for anything anymore bc what are the ratings looking like now?

I absolutely couldn't stand all of the FM1 people that came back, but aside from Vinnny & Laurel (and I can even appreciate what she's brought to the show), I liked all of the Fresh Meat 2 people. I think we can all agree that it probably would've been a better choice than Bloodlines & certainly would go over better than AYTO from any season.

LOL.

This is why I welcome AYTO and possibly people from future MTV shows appearing on The Challenge. With more shows involved I think the less likely we'll see the same cast over again. I personally can't take another season that involves Nany, Jenna, and Bananas involved in a final or close to it. 

Yeah But Debut that was the point of bringing ayto in, to replace those many real worlders who declined.

I get all don't decline but they don't fit a certain theme and that's production fault yes, but the numbers must've just fit for Exes II for them to add them in while keeping that theme.

And on top of that this fanbase will take any old shit thrown at them. You see how people on here(and in other places too) have this mindset  that it's impossible to skip as season and they'll watch no matter what because it's the challenge.

But yeah..I would've been fine with a Fresh Meat 3 and this is coming from the person who probably hates them the most out of anyone in this fandom.

I actually think ratings play a bigger part now than they used to. With Bloodlines it worked because it had a certain curiousity to it. Most of us wanted to see how alike or different these people were from their relatives. With some of the people they cast for Real World today and the rejects who make it on AYTO I can understand why they wouldn't want to take the risk. I personally would love to see it but it could definitely knock the show down another notch which they can't afford.

But my thing is this: They can easily make a fresh cast with just RW/RR/FM/BL. Just make the **** effort and dig deep into the pool and stop with the ******* theme challenges. They're just being lazy with pulling from other shows IMO.

I think I found a solution,

anyone who isn't already, just start watching AYTO this fall. Not a bad show. Because I think your just going to keep being disappointed and wasting your time hoping CH29 is something different.

Now can we end this discussion and prepare for Rivals III footage/release?

Which wasn't needed..They could've droped the theme and gotten the actual castmembers that would've came on in a heartbeat. AYTO is unecessary.

That's true but some of the blame is on the cast too. I mean we almost had Marie and Laurel on Bloodlines but they declined once they were pretty much cast. I feel those two could have easily changed the house dynamic.

Actually it is: I tried watching it a few times and I was ******* bored. It's an uniteresting premise and I don't see it lasting much longer honestly.

Back to Rivals 3...I swear I forgot Jessica was part of this cast until I looked at the list again. I'm most excited to see Jessica partnered with Johnny and Ashley partnered with Cory. I'm also curious to see what Cheyenne brings and if Simone can be redeemed. Smile

We agree on something. I tried watching AYTO 3 and didn't make it to Episode 2. I'll stick to getting to know people from AYTO as they come on The Challenge.

The show is bottom of the barrel at this point. Even with these AYTO people they are going to have to TRY stuff. Even with Bloodlines, I will give it to them that they tried something different but even still, the format is all over the **** place and the very people the show should be focused on are non-existent. It's like they do the same 'ol, same 'ol and then when they DO try something different they **** it up & then turn around & blame the fans for not watching it.

*throws hands up* **** it, I quit lmaooo just do what-the-****-ever with this show. Challenge 29 better have a dope cast or at least one where you can tell that they tried.

Only thing I care about is Challenge 29 having Nia. Wink

True. People decline and I get that: But there are people in the pool they either ignore and will go on in a heartbeat or willing to go on and say yes to the call but end up getting dropped because they don't fit the theme. That's why I said drop the themes and dig deeper. Marie and Laurel aren't digging deep since they casted Laurel several times already and they've been trying to get Marie back on Since Seasons 2.

I knew Marie and Laurel wasn't what you was talking about I was just pointing out how we could have had a better cast and then the cast screws it up instead of production. I personally like the themes but I think there needs to be a balance like we need themes like Free Agents, Cutthroat, and Duel in between the other themes so older people can come back, stir up drama, and then be eligible for the themes that come afterwards. That's pretty much what KellyAnne did on Bloodlines. 

And as far as Challenge 29: All I know is there better not be 20 ******* AYTO on there. I want some fresh RW representation ala Seasons 2.

I noticed Simone & Cheyenne don't follow each other. I bet Simone has a lot to do with it **** she is entirely too parched to have beef with another so-called black girl for some reason.

Cheyenne hangs with all the poppin' insta-famous girls like Brittany Renner, Jena Frumes & Aleeyah Petty, plus she has celebrity connects also lol why the **** does she want anything to do with these shows anyway?

Only thing I care about is Challenge 29 having Nia. Wink

This shit right here...she BETTER be on it is all imma say.

It's time for LaToya to make her way back on the show as well but I don't think she really wants to be around these awful people they keep having on season after season.

I just need them to put Badlad, Graphik, and I in a conference room with a phone, a spiral notebook, and a list of contacts.

This I agree with and that is a good Idea. They could alternate between themes like do an all inclusive theme like Free Agents then next show do Exes 3. It would allow lesser used castmembers to come on and make a mark and not just the older ones: the more recent castmembers that either haven't come on at all or havent been on in a while can come and redeem themselves too.

We'll have this show on top like it should be but they don't want to be great.

Plus her family have money and her dad owns a chickeey cheese lol So its not like she needs the money

Smh i'm guessing she just wants the little bit of "fame" I guess. I don't care though, she seems very lowkey & down-to-earth otherwise & she's one of the few AYTO people I don't mind coming on the show.

Simone too honestly...she has her own connects but we all see she's trying to become MTV's next top ***** or some shit so she would obviously want to be on TV.
