She was the size of a basic, small woman on the reunion show. I bet she has lost atleast 50lbs of muscle since her first season. I guess she’s going for sex appeal as her social plan because her ability to politic is horrible.

Zach and Jenna is the epitome of toxic relationship.


I’ve got a real sore spot for that kind of shite after my sister caught up with this dude who was incredibly toxic and manipulative.

Just seeing Jenna and Zach near each other makes me sick.

To be fair, I was pretty drunk watching that episode.

I'll check out the renunion at some point this weekend.

He will never run a true final but I’ll bet my farm he can still kick every guys arse in a physical comp. CT has got 3-4 years left before he’s not a threat amongst the cast. They are small (5’7-5’10/ 170-190). The only legit threat is Fussy...but he has to figure out the challenge if he’s gonna be a finals threat. Winning comps are good but a 12-20 mile final is no joke....especially for a 6’5/ 270 guy.

Lol at Zach trying to stiff arm Vernon Davis with some “next question” shite. He’s always been dramatic, controlling and toxic in his relationships. Mostly all of the earlier clips of them together from past seasons are cringe worthy

I don’t see what redeeming qualities he has to be recast. He was big, that’s all he had going for him. Now we have another big dude (Fessy) who has more potential.

CT is taking a nap, checking his phone, and complaining about how long this is taking.

To be fair he wasn't really on the show very long and you could tell they filmed the reunion for many hours.

In the shots of Vernon Davis there is a window behind him and at different times during the reunion you could see it being bright and sunny outside, dusk, and then pitch dark.

Drama with Jenna, that's about it. And they managed to work that into a season he wasn't even on.

Watching now. That has to be Jenny’s sister and not her. She doesn’t sound the same and her sister had a much more normal looking face. Has to be her twin.

I think Nany was drunk during this reunion. She's got that really crazed look. I know it used to be kind of a thing for everyone to get slammed snd gonon the reunion and act an arse.

I know the old shows used to last hours and hours. They tried a live 2 hour reunion once but that's when CT almost tried to fight Jonny Moseley for asking about him and Diem on the show. That was a disaster.

I'm amazed that Rogan wasn't on. The dude was a winner last year and made it to the final and probably could have won had he not been eliminated.

I'm sure they did it so there was no Dee questions. I wonder if he'll even be invited to next season out of association. They're treating Dee murdered someone.

We all hate on Josh, but he's actually great tv.

Nany was 100% on something. And maybe not even just alcohol. And her favorite thing to do is tell everyone how much she’s “over it.”

Rogan not being on was odd. But I assume the Dee shite was the root cause. And yeah, MTV swung and missed hard on that. I also noticed the message at the beginning of the episode re: Dee. And it basically said they would air it anyway in respect to the fans, or something like that. Which is obviously total bullshite since they heavily edited her completely out of the show.

Vermont Davis hosting was stupid and get super out of place.

And Zach and Jenna are so obviously fricking miserable.

You mean this is not a couple that exudes happiness and perfection?



Zach looked like he was in a hostage video. And this is when they're talking about their wedding.

And I have no idea why Vernon Davis was hosting this show. He's probably a fan and wants to be the next Michael Strahan, but he was obvioulsy just reading questions off a prompter, and not very well at that.

Hell, just get Kenny to host these. He can't be on the show anymore, but he can actually host this kind of stuff. Plus the banter and shite talking to the OGs (especially Wes and CT) would be phenomenal.

Yeah I’m pro all things Kenny when it comes to challenges. Hopefully they can find a way to do an OG season with some of the GOATs coming back. Maybe they could offer big money since the ratings would be huge.

Vernon Davis kept trying to crack the biggest smile ever. It was awkward.

Didn’t Zach cheat on Jenna previously? My wife asked me that I I said yeah but I may be remembering wrong.

Zach has verbal abuser written all over him. Not sure why Jenna is insistent on making it work, but that’s a sad looking situation.

I told my wife the other night that it feels like I've been watching this season forever, and looking back in the thread, the first episode was April 1st. So that is literally four solid months of the show.

As much as I love The Challenge, I feel like that's too long.

Remember when shows like Real World would do 1/2 hour episodes and a season would last like 6-7 months?

I don't ever remember RW being half-hour episodes. And I watched basically from the beginning.

I think Hollywood was the first season to switch to an hour. Before that, episodes were half an hour.

I think the first hourlong Challenge might have been the Ruins.

All of the classic seasons were half hour episodes. And yeah, like other poster said, the show would last half the damn year.

Hell, I think Challenge episodes even used to be 30 minutes during the Inferno days.

RW used to have land-line phones and even computers and email allowed back in the day. I remember they had a separate email room in Paris and it felt like the cast was always on it.

My heyday for RW:

Vegas 1
Paris
Austin
Philadelphia
San Diego
Key West

And these are 90-minute episodes. I believe the challenges a decade ago were only 12 episodes a season, then they slowly graduated to 15-16 plus two-part reunion specials
