I'll go ahead and say it. This season sucks so far.

It looks like in the previews for next week that Hunter kicks Zach’s arse.

I noticed that too. Anyone who can beat Zach's arse is a bad man. Should make this season more exciting to watch.

Zach's muscles are mostly for show. He doesn't strike me as a tough guy.

Remember when he cramped up on Free Agents and almost screwed Laurel out of winning? "I CAN'T MOVE MY FINGERS!!!"

How many eliminations have Pauline and Natalie lost now? 3? And they are still in the fricking game. CT finished last in one challenge and was immediately sent to the redemption house and never even had a chance to compete in an elimination the entire game before being sent straight home. Yet Paulie and Nat are still hanging around despite all the fricking losses Ridiculous


This is one reason why I’m probably done with this show once the “old guard” retires. The new people just aren’t interesting, but the show is so hell bent on making them relevant that they keep changing the rules to keep them around. The truth is that CT doesn’t give them anymore “holy shite” moments, so they don’t care if he goes home. They’d rather keep around people like Josay, and that sucks.

The twists are just too much now. They don’t even have any real impact because they do them so often. What’s more shocking now is when they just do a regular vote and elimination. When TJ starts every challenge with “oh and by the way, if your name has an ‘R’ in it, you are going straight to the redemption house,” its just stupid. I know that’s all this show has ever been, but they’ve somehow managed to turn good stupid into bad stupid.

I loved how Jozea was prancing all around like Billy Badass because they ended up with the double cross. He literally did nothing to earn it, including choosing it (since they were last and everyone else chose wrongly). Yet he thinks his shite doesn’t stink and acted like he deserved or earned it.

Natalie’s boobs were out of control. I’ll allow it.

I guess most challenges will be puzzle based going forward. Easiest way to keep it “fair” since it’s guys vs. girls.

I agree it sucks that Paulie and Natalie are still around after losing so much. But that being said, I’d like to see them back in the house to see if Paulie backs down from his shite talking or not.

And I love how offended John always pretends to get when anybody ever says shite to him that he says to someone else. Dude was having a conniption fit in the pool when called out for getting with Angela. But he is literally always up in everyone else’s business 24/7. He’s such a bitch.

Paulie has now lost twice to Jozea in eliminations. He needs to stop trying to make himself out to be a badass.

So apparently a sex tape with John and his ex girlfriend (the Olympic medalist snowboarder) was leaked. I wonder who could have possibly leaked it...a) the Olympic snowboarder with a clean image b) hackers of A-list celebrities like Jennifer Lawrence, Rihanna, and Emma Stone or c) An obscure celebrity trying to milk his 14th minute of fame

I hope Devin gets into the house just to call him out on it at the reunion.

We still have 18 people left in the house and apparently 5 episodes until the final. There has to be some crazy shite going down with fights and real purges soon.

I saw someone mention Hunter beating Zach’s arse earlier. Was that who that was in the preview? He seemed to slam him pretty hard. I wonder what caused that since Zach doesn’t seem to cause too much shite these days.

Would be funny if Hunter and Ashley get sent home due to him fighting when he was bitching about Ashley doing something stupid to frick him out of a million dollars.

The preview to me looked like it was Kyle who got tripped. I assumed Zach got hurt doing a challenge. Could be totally wrong though.

Btw, anyone see John's new show this past weekend. He's the new host of NBC's 1st Look, it's a late night weakend show kind of like the old E! Show Wild On, except way less T&A.

John went to an NFL combine training, an NFL cheerleading tryout and then something else. He was just OK, tried way too hard to either be "cool guy" or "look at me dude" but it wasn't insufferable.

It also highlighted how out of character he is not on MTV. It's just doesn't seem quite right.

In reality, he should be the host or at least co host of the challenge once he finally retires, and maybe he will have a reality show Angela or something.

Hell, fricking Cory even now kind of has his own with his chick now on Teen mom commercials.

Finally caught up just in time for gameday... but this season has been a bit of a drag.

They came up with one of the best elimination nomination processes yet, but have bogged down everything else around it.

I've come around on TJ Lavin a little bit. I still don't like him, but I don't hate him like I used to. No idea why either, I just have calmed on him a bit.

So I met Tony the other day at the airport. Didn't get to talk to him more than a few minutes, but he was a super nice guy. Got a picture with him, and was really appreciative of fans of the show

First time watching an episode this season, they just let anyone on the show now huh? Talent pool must be real shallow

One of the worst shows on the season. Can't believe how fast it went by with virtually nothing happening of consequence. Yes Tony and John won, but that was inevitable.

Wish CT was still there. He's still great on interviews.
