In the preview for the remainder of the season, they show CT and Big T in the winner’s area and in another scene they show Big T telling CT he’s a liar and he says that he broke a promise.

So I’m guessing CT throws himself in, wins, and picks another partner.

I hope the producers aren't going to try and build up Kam as one of the star's of the show going forward. She's gotta be one of the most insufferable people in the show's history. I wanna see CT and Fessy go at it in a physical elimination. I think CT would probably lose, he's pretty out of shape now.

The problem is the show has been severely lacking with good depth of strong females. Kam would be fricked if girls like Emily, Cara Maria, Laurel, Sarah, etc were still competing. The crop of girls this season was horrible. Nothing impressive about Kam really stands out to me. She's just bigger than most of the girls and, for whatever reason, people are too dumb to realize how obvious she is with manipulating people to do what she wants them to do.

That's my assumption.

I laughed at the Amber B comment that since she helped Kaycee get her skull now the Big Brother alliance was gonna help Amber get hers.

Uh, no they’re not. They appreciate you doing their dirty work for them and getting a strong opponent out but they won’t be helping you.

This season has gone to shite. Im barely even interested anymore with how shitty the cast is (especially the girls) this deep in the game. I never thought I'd miss the likes of Dee so much.

Not having John or Wes is also hurting bad. They were always good to get the pulse of the game and the moves that need to be made.

I also hate everyone from big Brother except Josh (he makes me laugh), but I Truly can't stand Darrell's partner. I just can't even watch her segments, and the other generic middling attractive, Subruban types....They're simply not compelling at all. They're horrible for the show... I'm also over Big T. . I'm over her charm at this point and Nany is almost just as bad.

Theresa is also a fricking Moron. For whatever reason, people hate her anyway (probably because of how snakey she plays the game) but she shot her wad way too early when she was pretty anonymous before.

These morons also need to be targeting Big brother big time because they're lining up for a sweep in the final if not. They're going to box Lolo out and Kaycee is going to sail to a final win. I don't think Kam has the endurance to beat her.

Theresa was a huge roadblock for the remaining girls.

Overall, This season kind of sucks.

I'm way more exited for the OG season than I am for the rest of Double Agents.

This is my first time watching the challenge since probably 2012. I don’t think this season has been bad........ but then again I have no idea who these people are

Take away Kam and Leroy and it hasn't been bad at all.

Unfortunately they have focused way too much on Kam and Leroy.

The obsession with focusing on Amber, Amber, Gabby, Nany and Big T is just a bad move for the show. Lolo has also been a real disappointment.

Aren't the girls like two gold skulls behind the men? They need to catch up. Book it there will be a team elimation coming up soon. Guys will have to be stealing skulls and girls will just be earning them until they catch up to the men. One team will be eliminated together though.

I think Lolo will be better on future seasons if she comes back. She’s feeling things out as a rookie right now and not trying to stir the pot. I think next time she’ll be more cocky and entitled, especially if she makes the final (or wins it) this year.

But I agree that the hard focus on the rookie girls has not been great. At least Amber and Gabby are nice looking though. But when the alternative is more Kam, it makes for terrible female storylines. As annoying as people like Ashley are, they provide drama and entertainment.

That’s the real loss here. Ashley was always good for a house wide argument on night 1 and every night after that.

I know the odds of it are pretty much zero because of past behavior, but Camillia would certainly spice up these seasons. They have an entire new group of players for her to scream at

The trivia episodes always remind me of how dumb a lot of these people are

This is true, but it’s really a testament to just how much of a monster he used to be. I’m watching Inferno 2 on Netflix (2004), and he was the most feared guy on that show from a physical standpoint. 17 years later he’s still dominating Nam in pole wrestle, and fighting Fessy to a stalemate on top of an 18-wheeler. The dude is cut from a different cloth.

That moment with CT in “next on” trailer gave me some epic nostalgia, when he gets in Fessy’s face. Reminded me of the “who’s scared of you now” rant with Wes from years ago and all those times he beefed with John.

Lolo is an impossible partner. Feel bad for Nam being stuck with her. As overly dramatic as she is it would be fitting if she was paired up with Josh.

There was some talk/rumors that last season was rigged for Bananas. I wonder if this season will be rigged for CT?

Gabby gets hotter every episode, but she should have demanded Devin let her go down against Amber M.

What a dumb move by Gabby you had the weakest girl in the house by far in a hall brawl served to you on a platter and she chickened out. I wondered what would have happened if she said she going in and Devin refused.

Also that chick that lost I hope they never bring her on another challenge, her performance was just pathetic. CT described that hall brawl perfectly.

Also I hope the next men's hall brawl is like this one I like that set-up so much better than ringing the bell.

Holy shite. You have the layup of the century on the table and Gabby passes it up. Simply one of the worst moves in Challenge history.

Devin also totally fricking blew his power move. He should have cut a deal with Lolo to go into the pit against the house vote (she would have gone in against anyone the house voted in, even if she didn't know it was going to be hall brawl) and he could have split his allies even more. She would have been loyal to him, and Nam is his friend too, so he could possiblly add another number there.That would make his alliance of Nam, CT, Cory, Lolo and himself. That's decent numbers. But now, he's just kind of sitting there as as one of the prime targets to take a skull from. I would expect Josh to be #1 because of Devin's puzzle accumen, but then he's next. Just dumb strategy altogether.

And also, Why the hell is Lolo acting like her and Nam are fricking married???? This is f-ing insane.

You're working with someone who you may or may not get along with so you can win $500K. You don't have to be fiends. This is about money. Why does she act like it's some kind of intimate relationship? Nam is also German... Not exactly the most emotionally affectionate nationality... So don't expect him to be all lovey dovey and sensative to your whining.

The challenge literally had 3 seasons where they paired people who hated each other with one another.. And they got through it. Lolo is simply just in some kind of fantasy land where she thinks she is playing in the fricking Olympics.. There were so many seasons where partners barely spoke to each other because they loathed each other so much. She wants fricking couples therapy every day it seems.

Love Darrell's whole view of it all... "sorry bitch, that's the Challenge." absolutely classic.

I think a lot of us guessed she'd be mentally broken by about halfway through the season and it looks like wee were dead on. I can absolutely see her leaving the show.

The only thing that will stop her is maybe CT or someone telling her to stick it out and tell her that there is always going to be some twist where she'll be able to get down there.

We know a mass partner split up is probably coming. From the previews, it looks like maybe even a double Elim next week. They're due.
