Sounds like it's getting switched up in some way next week.

If you saw the aftershow, they showed a clip from next week. Cara Maria and her cousin are brought down and they have to pick the new teams.

Well then that really sucks for Cohutta. His cousin wasn't even the worst girl in the bug eating competition, but happened to be the worst on a team with a guy.

I'm watching now, and this is why it's stupid to have co-ed teams. Jenna and her weird-looking-but-I-want-to-frick-her cousin didn't even touch a single bug, but they are completely safe. So why even make them compete then? That was stupid.

Max, you're hating on Jill but I think she's kinda cute. Her accent is ridiculous though.

Jenna and her cousin hoeing each other out is hilarious. And I love how everybody just sort of stands there and watches it just like we do. And Jenna's job is a babysitter, and her dad is in jail?

I hate how when Stephen talks he always leans his head back at some weird angle. What the frick is that shite?

I like Cohutta, but won't miss that team. And I've never seen such a gorgeous and hot chick look so fricking weird and stupid by ruining her face with cracked out eyebrows like Nicole. Man that shite looks so just....off.

Interested to see how they switch shite up next week. Hopefully it makes shite more interesting cuz this whole co-ed team bullshite is kinda stupid.

It was awesome how it went from "I don't want to be here" to "well your boyfriend cheats on you" immediately.

Bill Simmons has a new podcast up and it is like 60% challenge talk.

Haven't watched the episodes yet. So haven't checked out the pod either

Running commentary watching it on DVR

frick you care Maria you dumb bitch. Draft is set up where she picks a vet AND the partner goes to the other team. This is perfect and you can get an easy WIN/WIN. Take fricking Leroy and send his shite arse cousin to the other team. Instead she rides bananas cock and gives the other team what appears to be a decent competitor at least physically.

Jamie immediately picks Leroy cause he isn't retarded. They now have three strong guys.

Never mind he picked Jenna which is probably actually ok with this crop of girls.

The goal of the drsft is probably to get the decent girls. Shitty girls will hold you back in challenges but decent girls will hold you back in finals.

This could be a situation where the red team is able to eliminate all their shite and have a strong team for the finals where the blue team dominates the season but is left with too many at the end.

I like the splitting up into teams, and the picking teams was great. Hilarious how possed they were getting by getting stuck with shitty bloodlines.

There's multiple ways to go home now. You can frick up. Your bloodline can frick up. Or either of you can piss someone off and get voted in. And if one loses, both lose. That's kinda shitty, but that's the corner the show painted itself in with this stupid format.

Camilla getting all pissed because she knows her sister sucks and she is prolly gonna go home.

And I love how it only took Nany like three seconds to get up and start hollering.

RoyLee: "I know you can't ever win an argument against a woman, so I don't know what to tell you."

Nany just said "suck my dick."

Camila: "Why am I this emotional? I'm never this emotional.."

I'm wondering what the hell is wrong with Tony that that would let him leave and say he's fine and now he's losing color and looks like he's going septic (and yes, I know spoilers are out there, but I try to avoid those...and I know someone said Abe replaces him earlier in the thread I believe).

This format seems fricking awesome IMO now that it's set up.

every debate about who to send into eliminations has huge meaning for both teams and players on your team are cheering for the other team and shite. Well we can't send in Candice because then we lose Leroy. But the team WITH Candice has twice the reason to send her in. Like it a lot.

I hate the shite out of Camila. So annoying and has no clue what is going on.

Anyone watch the after show? They are talking about Camilla and how she was campaigning for people not to vote for her sister and bananas said he has never campaigned for himself. He said he takes it on the chin when he is voted in

as much as I can't stand bananas this show wouldn't be as good without him

I'm talking about from their perspective. You could have zero control over if you go home or not in some cases. That sucks.

I agree that it breeds more drama though. And that's why Camila was going apeshit last night, because she knows her sister sucks at everything and she could very easily go home.

I wonder if this will be the format for the rest of the season or if they will end up switching things (teams?) up again.

I bet they'll do it like Free Agents, where there are individual challenges, pair challenges, and team challenges, but the teams stay the same. I'm curious if the final will be in the original pairs or as a Red vs Blue challenge.

I'd like that the most. One thing I like about the team splits is that there is no incentive to throw challenges, as in other team contests like the Ruins.

I'm still amazed that there isn't a single attractive female bloodline.

Every summer I don't go to Bodrum, MTV films a challenge there.

exactly. both teams put someone into elimination. if you throw a challenge to protect yourself or your bloodline, one of the teams is gonna be pissed and send them in anyways. i just fricking love that you have a stake in the other team's success and deliberations as well.

the thing that still really appears to suck is that you get sent home if your bloodline loses an elimination AND that half the teams are automatically safe half the time while half the teams are up for elimination every time.
