6 more weeks of challenge! it's like groundhog day!

The preview of Bananas and CM Punk talking **** to each other was great

man this show is gonna be good

game 1 of WCF, nba draft lotto and this show next tues

**** yeah

edit: Victor Cruz hosting also seems random

It would occur to me that challenge is goat so this is actually a step up from what they were doing

Great pr move

Looking forward to JOHN and WES rustling jimmies

In honor of the goat let us never forget



NSFW

just watching now, but lol at doing this string beading thing. Its 5 ****ing minutes. I would go ****ing sleep while the other idiots try to give someone a 5 minute penalty.

4 ****ing hours? are you kidding me?

why are they even bothering?

5 hours now? lol the final is a bunch of stages with tons of places to make up 5 minutes.

6...

TEEJ

its really dumb that they dont even know where they stand? I haven't had as many problems with this season as a lot of people did, but not knowing the margins or even the places seems too cute by the producers

the whole point of watching the challenge (and any competition in general) is to see how people gain or lose advantages throughout the contest as someone gets closer to winning. simply telling us who won at the end is not drama. thats why the best eliminations are ones like the X battle or Balls In, we can see someone win as its happening.

lol at phrasing it like it was a jump when you can calmly grab the bar without leaving the first boat until your grip is solid

guess the bead **** did matter

lol what a terrible final though

how is it possible they even claim this is harder than climbing a snowy mountain and stuff like that?

get ****ed Nicole

The only thing worse than everyone spending hours doing the beads is Cory doing the beads. No matter what happened nobody was giving him the 5 minute penalty.

This is a great post.

That was tilting. After seeing how easy the first one was, I fast-forwarded through the rest.

the final was a joke, the season was awful, challenge has been trending sharply downward for several seasons now

Yeah agree. Haven't enjoyed a season since Exes 2 with the Wes/Bannans cold war.

This new champs vs pros thing seems cool though, definitely need a new gimmick.

Next season of the challenge is probably last chance for me. If it's as bad as the last 3 then I'll stop watching.

LOOOOL man this aged really well. Wes was roided af here

I really enjoyed this season up until the last elimination and the lame final

Ok.

I forget - which challenge did this happen on?

rivals i think? i remember her being the only one supporting CT/adam

yeah it was Rivals 1

also lol @ Wes in that. Like legit 35 pounds of muscle bigger than he is now.

Champs vs pros not getting enough love. We should all be salivating over it. The previews I've seen have all been pretty good.

What an abomination of a final ep. The last part was an actual joke. The final half of the ep could have been 10 minutes. The final overall was nowhere near as difficult as past seasons. The last Rivals season had a much harder final. I don't particularly care for Ashley, but felt happy for her at the end.

Can someone who's experienced in kayaking guess how long 10 miles would take? How hard is it?

Some serious delusion. I don't see how he can win an individual final considering how he has no endurance and is the WOAT at puzzles. Camila should be great TV during the reunion, blaming everybody but herself for the loss.



Was talking with some friends about our earlier challenge memory. For me, it was an ep where there were two teams and they were stuck in this room with no windows. The had a tennis ball which they had to keep moving. If the ball stopped for 10 seconds, the team would lose. One team ended up putting the tennis ball is a plastic bag, and tied it near the air conditioner, allowing them to win. A quick search led me to the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MMfzIr06Ws

What's everybody's earlier memory?

Gotta give it to Wes. Abe gets some bonus points because of the Veronica/Rachel threesome.
