re: MTV THE CHALLENGE Season 40 Cast Revealed

Yeah, he didn’t really argue when Averey said he didn’t want to be there or when she said he didn’t mind losing.

He was even smirking when TJ gave him a mild lecture.

I wonder if he really did show for the appearance check and then fly right back home.

If so, he made it too obvious. I know producers hate that move. Dunbar never got called back once he pulled that.

If that is the case, why did he beat Leroy last week.

And he was soaking with sweat at the end of that elimination last night, so he was at least trying.

The whole thing is perplexing

Comments on the last two weeks. I’m not loving the way the season is playing out, both with who all is leaving and how the elim voting is set up.

Last week:

Super disappointed Nia is hooking up with Josh.

Not surprised Brad and Emily are hooking up. She’s smoke.

Already hate Tony and Joe cocky he is. You aren’t a beast because you beat Leroy. He sucks and has for years now. “Maybe I underestimated how strong I am…” “if it’s an eating challenge, you know who’s winning. Bet the house.” “ it’s time to clock in. “ Ugh.

I’m not sure why, as a captain, you wouldn’t want to be in the back of the boat steering and controlling it. That’s a mistake by Derek.

I love Avery standing up to Tony. He needs to be knocked down a peg or two.

Tony: “I’m ready to assert my dominance.”

Nia now ready to bang Kyland. How many times has Josh been friendzoned on the Challenge? It’s always funny.

So Emily is fricking Brad but also wants to frick Kaycee? Odd.

Tony: “I’m coming in hot.”

Man, Rachel still looking good.

I really hope it’s individual elims and not teams.

Wasn’t Avery pretty hot back in her Challenge days? Because she looks pretty good still.

Ok it is individual. Awesome. LFG, Darrell.

I love Darrell’s attitude on challenges now. I think it’s stupid sometimes, but it’s entertaining.

I figured the tile pattern out in about ten seconds. That was stupidly easy.

Tony “I stuck to my guns.” Go home, loser.

And Avery won. Awesome.

I love how much the little headshot for Aneesa is edited to make her look a LOT skinnier.

I like this little twist where you choose the next captains.





This week:

Jenny don’t tell Aneesa she had a “sick body.” Unless you mean like an eating disorder or something.

This trivia is the hardest they’ve ever done. Not even multiple choice. This is the first time I’ve ever not liked the trivia challenge.

WTF even happened to CT? It looked like he hit the water just fine.

I don’t think I like the whole thing where the elimination decision comes down to only four people. There’s way more drama when almost everyone is at least on the table.

I didn’t know Laurel and Jordan dated.

Man Jenny is so shredded. If her face wasn’t completely fricked up, she’d be a smokeshow.

I was hoping more would come out about this Jordan/Cheyenne thing and him maybe blowing that on purpose.

This jacks thing is an awesome elimination. Seems like the strategy is to do it first and count how long it takes while grabbing close jacks. Then from then on you know the time and you go outside-in with the farthest jacks.

I suspect Jenny will annihilate Aneesa assuming she can make the ball. But Derrick and Horacio should be good. I predict Horacio though. This seems like something they should both be good at.

Wow. Jenny is gassing out. Guess she isn’t as in shape as she looks if Aneesa isn’t even tired yet.

I assume that was an editing thing that made it closer than it looked? So maybe Jenny was resting because she knew she was ahead? Not sure.

Derrick. Wow. He’s so good at this show. I would like to have watched an unedited video of the full men’s competition for this one.

Everybody in this game plays such a scared game. It’s hilarious.

At least we get a Cara/Laurel fight next week. Only took three episodes.

I've watched every season of the challenge and still only knew a few of those.

I mean some were difficult but they know trivia is coming so they should be prepared for it somewhat. Tori was the only one last week that was smart enough to study the order of the seasons because she knew they'd need it at some point.

Oh yeah I don't doubt they have several rounds we didn't see.

Caught-up on last two episodes

Idk who this Asian chick is with the nice tots, but she is stacked and seems reasonably normal. More of her please!

IDGAF what anyone says, Tori’s tiddies have always and will always look delicious

CT’s weight has to fluctuate more than damn near anyone I’ve ever seen. He is absolutely huge and sloppy af

I can’t handle any of Josh’s confessionals. I bet he is unbearably douchey in real life

Derick wtf man?!? Why go for the 4th when Horacio just dropped his?!?

That must’ve been some creative editing with the audio, right? Derrick must’ve known he won so that’s why Horacio was so chill in the end about just casually putting the final piece up?

(no message)

So what happened was pegs were falling off the wall and production was putting it back in for Derek while Horacio had to do his own. The ball also got stuck for him up top as it was rolling down and they allowed Derek to keep going as well. When Horacio finished, Derek did indeed have a missing peg. TJ actually announced that Horacio won and an hour later changed it to Derek. Everyone saw it and it just wasn't shown. Horacio is taking the loss with grace. He'll probably never come back.

horacio did post something about there being too many factors out of his control and he wont be returning to the show.

---

Well that sucks if true. I love him as a contestant, but I’m not sure if he has what it takes to win a Challenge since he refuses to play the political game. I hope he comes back though.

similar to the laurel/ninja elimination years ago.

Not really the same thing though. Laurel literally missed the correct hole for her peg and just jammed it in by force into a spot it didn’t belong.
