Natalie and Paul had lost two eliminations to Jozea and Davonne already, so it isn’t the most absurd thing for Kyle and Brad to think.

I would’ve picked Jozea and Davonne but that’s because I watched Champs vs Stars and saw just how bad Jozea was.

Eta: the pacing this season is absurd. We are at 14 people in the house and two in redemption. Even if the fight send a team home AND we get an elimination next episode, then there will still be 10 people in the house and four in redemption in two weeks.

I can’t wait to see Hunter, Cory, and Nelson doing trivia. I hope they don’t get to ask their teammates for help, as that would take out all the fun as their partners are probably the three smartest people left in the game.

Just mentally, you know Davonne is terrible when put into a stressful position like that box.

Jozea is also probably even less smart thsn Brad, plus, like I said, Pauly and Natalie are gone from the game for good.its seriously one of the more bone headed decisions I've seen in a while.

I agree, when the bananas and CT’s stop being on the show, that’s when I’m done. I usually quit watching when those get eliminated anyway. The show will die quick

Yep. John said recently he is not planning to retire any time soon.

I wonder if CT will go the route of Darrell and Derrick and Co. And barely get cast anymore because they don't bring the drama.

It's hard to fathom, buy I honestly think MTV execs want far more Shane's on the show now than old school, grind it out badasses like there used to be.

Now, they can market it as half Bad Girls club, half survivor. That may be good in spurts, but all of us fans who have been loyal to the show for so long still want to see great competitors on the show, and a stacked final full of fan favorites.

“Welcome to the 2018 century.” Good job, Nelson, you fricking dolt.

That sucks arse for Zach big time.

It bothers me so much that Sylvia not only thinks she runs shite, but that she actually sort of does. I can’t stand her. She sucks arse but doesn’t know it. She’s like a shittier version of Kailah.

I love Kyle. So much. He’s such an a-hole and doesn’t care at all. He’s good television.

Holy shite this elimination looks insane. And dangerous, but that seems to be the case this year anyway. But finding the numbered balls while you tumble over and over seems borderline impossible. Especially if a guy is turning it. And especially if it’s againat a a girl. This is another one that is lopsided as frick due to idiot team making.

Brad and Kyle choosing Natalie and Paulie was so dumb. They should’ve rolled with Jozea and Devonne all day long.

Natalie looks like she’s gonna break her neck. And I can’t believe they would do this elimination and not even provide fricking elbow and knee pads. Wtf?

Brad and Kyle should’ve won. But Kyle is physically weak and Brad sucked it up in his part (which isn’t unlike Brad...he rides on past accomplishments more than most IMO).

Interested to see what happens next week. The episode looks interesting, even though I’m sure the good stuff won’t happen until the very end.

I didn't watch Ex on the Beach. Was Cory kicked off that show as well?

It is crazy how much he has fallen off. He was in line to be the next star of this series. Now he has been passed by Nelson, Hunter Tony, Kyle, Joss (for some reason I don't see Joss sticking with this though). He really needs a rivals season with Bananas or Darrell to get his shite straight.

Whoever in TYB that slammed Tony will probably fully move Tony back on Team Bananas in future challenges. I'd love a Bananas, Tony, Zach, Kyle alliance to counter this ridiculous TYB Lavender Lady bullshite.

Good point on the Shane’s type being more marketable. The narrative fits. Just drama 100 percent of the time. It’s probably why most of the old guard doesnt come back and why the ones who are interested, don’t get cast. I read Kendall from RR was interested for next season but didn’t make the cut

In an arse backward way, I guess productions line of thinking has worked. John is now easier to root for with all these amateurs.

I think Brad should've been spinning that orb and Kyle inside. Kyle is great TV but Brad would've been had more stamina spinning Natalie IMO. Amanda sucks and it's crazy how everything she said to Zach was describing herself.

If Tony is sent home because of an injury, I'm serious, they should bring CT in as a fill in partner for John just to show these idiots how badly they really screwed up...the watch them all get dominated., it would be glorious and the "young buck" morons would be terrified.


That would be awesome, but if Tony does have to leave because of injury, and it was Cory who did it, then what they would most likely do is team up Bananas and Devin, which was the original plan for this season. That would still totally change the game.

It was crazy how Natalie was who won the challenge for them. Pauly couldn’t spin the ball without falling

It's definitely Cory slamming Tony. When he slams him his hat falls off and there's curly hair.

It was a short clip but it looked really bad and looked like he slammed him on his shoulder/neck. Stupid stuff like that could kill someone.

I think we can all assume it wasn’t John consideringMTV’s editing habits. They want us to think it’s him so viewership goes up

Yes, brad is stronger to spin the ball, that chick would have really died

Kyle is taller than brad, so that probably would have worked out better. Looks like brad and Kyle are idiots at eliminations and decision making

Corey has discovered a different way to take mtvs money without putting his body through hell.

I don't think he got kicked off. I think he was able to stay because the show was on its last or second to last day and he had a love triangle that was essentially the focal point of the whole season.

Yeah it is taking forever, I can't believe they sent more people back to the redemption house I thought for sure this would be it.

You have to think 2 eps for the finale, another 2 for the reunion show and then another 3 regular eps.... this shite will go into 2019

There's 14 people in the regular house and four in redemption. Kam/Kaleigh and Brad/Kyle.

Can't believe they picked Paulie and Natalie, definitely can't believe they lost.

Honestly, if rather have a season strung out than another 6 or 7 week crap Champs v. Stars crammed in the middle of seasons.

I don't know how that's show survives much longer. The "celebs" who are actually into it are so few and the legit Champs are now semi abandoning the show. John wasn't even on last time. And they only have so many actual champions in the well before you get another season full of Kailahs and Shanes of the world.
