MTV's The Challenge Thread

[CB Fan]

Still watching but Sarah is SO far gone it's hilarious. Vince thinks it's okay to ride coattails of Bannanas because that's his family? Lol, and he calls Devin pathetic...

I'm actually impressed with Devin and how he stood up for Cheyenne I still don't necessarily like him but he's not a bad guy after all. And Jenna really is a "dumb sheep" though we knew that when she became the umpteenth person to fall for and then get unceremoniously dumped by Zach.

 

[Sawyer]

Vince having any shred of an ego is laughable. The only reason his team has succeeded as much as it has is due to Jenna and the only reason he was never in an elimination is because his cousin's team had the most wins and there were always bigger targets.

 

[The Apocalypse]

For all my wrestling fans out there, I wouldn't be surprised if he Vince pulled a Kevin Nash and just laid down for Johnny.

 

[CB Fan]

Hmm, twist is pretty cool. I hope there is something that truly sets Bananas and Sarah back as they are just too damn cocky.

 

[ComicChick]

i think bananas and sarah are cocky cuz they are by far the most experienced in this. and they've both been strong competitors individually. they're a super strong duo together.
wes was the only other really experienced one i can remember, save for Leroy and camila, and i wonder how far they would've gotten if his back hadn't been messed up.

tbh, i really dislike a lot of the new kids. the guys are mostly meatheads and the girls are pretty dumb and there for eye candy and drama. there aren't that many strong female contestants for real on this show anymore. Nany and Sarah were the strongest imo this year

we need more Diems (), Evelyn's (who i hated), Rachel's, Emily, Cara Maria,
semi-honorable mentions: Paula Walnuts, Laurel (eh), Camila (not a fan), Jenn

i know some are getting "older" but i'd love to see some more vets come out.
Ct, Landon, Kenny, Evan, Aneesa, Paula, Alton, Brad, Derrick, Tina, Julie, etc

not even gonna lie, i kinda wanna watch them all from the beginning and reminisce. i've been a real world/road ruler since like 7th grade

 

[Sawyer]

I'd love to see Cara Maria back, but who knows if she will after some of the bulls*** MTV pulled last season. I don't think she was happy about it.

 

[ComicChick]

i missed last season, but sadly, i just spent waaay too much time reading this:

[Sawyer]

I feel like this has to be a point of no return for Bananas in this game. There's no way anyone with a brain (which is a real stretch for this show) looks at what he just did tonight and thinks to themself "Yeah, he'll have our back, let's align with him." Anyone who isn't a blood relation that puts any trust in him from here on out is a fool.

 

[Sawyer]

Jesus, Wes, really? Of all the times to agree with Bananas...

 

[Incrediblejeff]

It makes no sense that Johnny keeps comparing what Sarah did to her to what he did to her.It's totally different.They were on the same team when this happen.What Sarah did last time made sense for her to win.Devin was the only one up there making any sense.Also I really like Nessa as an aftershow host.

 

[The Apocalypse]

There's no comparison to what Sarah did a couple seasons ago to what Johnny ******* did to her. That being said, 275k is a lot of money and I would be lying if I said I wouldn't consider doing what he did.

 

[Sawyer]

Johnny's talking out of his ass if he thinks there's a parallel to be drawn between the two moves. Taking out other teams along the way to the finish line is the name of the game. Turning to the partner that did 50% of the work that got you past the finish line and saying "Heh, sorry babe", that's just being a dick.

But honestly, I'm not sure just how much blame I place on Bananas here. This felt very engineered by MTV. This felt like the end point of a storyline that was created solely to punish Sarah for making a solid game move a year or so ago. "Ooooh that filthy backstabber, give her what she deserves, Johnny!" Kinda like how, no matter how much screwing around there is on this show (both from singles and those not so single), Cara Maria was the only one given a scarlet letter last season.

 

[Havok83]

Wow. Johnny is an A-class a-hole. I thought Vinny would be the one person to take the money. Johnny used Saraha nd then backstabbed her. Made her feel as if all was forgiven and that their friendship was back, only to get his revenge in the end. He says she doesnt have money but they still won and no one can take that away from her. I hate him so bad

When I watched it last night I thought it was all staged. And I kind of do. Her reaction of the show and the aftershow seemed scripted.

 

[ComicChick]

What happened with cara Maria last year? I missed that one

I'm so disappointed in Bananas. He says everything he said during the show he meant, but how can you believe him? How can you ever believe or trust him going forward. Devin was totally right; Johnny doesn't win with any other girl on that show but Sarah. Devin grew on me a lot the last few episodes. He just is horrible drunk.

Haa anyone been screwed over on the show more than Sarah? She got sent home at least twice cuz her partners were kicked out for stupid reasons and now this.

 

[Sawyer]

What happened with cara Maria last year? I missed that one

She came into the game on her own and fooled around a little bit with one of the other guys there (nothing too serious, I think they probably made out at most), then the show brought in Abram when one of the teams needed replacing, Johnny pretty much immediately went behind CM's back and had Vince spill the beans to Abram about what was going on, knowing it would set him off, it basically succeeded, the alliance Cara had before Abram came back in was shot to hell, the network dedicated an entire aftershow to putting Cara on the spot and guilt-tripping her over the whole thing while Abram was acting like an emotionally abusive d-bag and Bananas was practically patting himself on the back for engineering the whole thing. Then Cara actually won the season and the finale aftershow spent all of 30 seconds congratulating her for her win before switching gears back to shaming her all over again. During that very same aftershow, Cory even mentioned that he had a gf back home while he was screwing around with Aneesa and got high fives and applause, but Cara cozying up to another guy? No no no, she's a devious ****.

 

[ComicChick]

Yikes.

Someone made a GoFundMe account for Sarah lol

 

[Sawyer]

 

[Havok83]

HAHA at them calling Johnny and MTV out

 

[ComicChick]

Mtv totally manipulated this season for ratings. I know it was Rivals, but they overhyped the Sarah/Johnny thing too much. Especially when ppl kept quitting or getting kicked out. I would almost bet that the twist at the end wasn't planned from the beginning

I wonder how many "vets" will agree to do the show now that there's a chance they won't win anything in the end. I know there is always a chance to leave empty handed from day 1, but to get to the final like that? I'd be livid

 

[Havok83]

i just watched the reunion and Johnny was outrageous the way he was trying to justify what he did. Im with Sarah in that what she did wasnt teh same thing bc she gave him a chance to fight for his place in the game. He didnt do that with her. It was not only selfish but pure revenge no matter how he tries to spin it as he had no hard feelings and forgave her. I felt for her when she talked about the sacrifices she made for him such as leaving her home, husband and job to essentially help him win money and leave her with nothing

Wes came across like he was butt kissing. The one thing I will agree with him is that Johnny isnt the only reason Vince got to the end. The rest of the house are to blame for being so scared to make big moves and strike at the cousins when they had the chance

 

[CB Fan]

Do I feel sorry for Sarah? No, no I do not. I feel like she let Bananas play mind games on her instead of sticking to her guns and so I don't have sympathy for her. In fact I truly stopped liking her when she blew off Cheyennes breakdown caused by Vince and Bananas bullying.

 

[ComicChick]

they said that it didn't happen exactly like it's shown on camera. that it was edited more to look that way. i think even cheyenne said sarah was there for her

i wonder how much they really do edit the film around, especially after they tried to show vince and camila hook up and it didn't happen and both confirmed and said it was edited to look that way

Man I was so pissed when I saw the reunion bc Camilla defended herself and denied it and the host, Nessa acted like a word that rhymes with witch, by turning it back around on her and continued to insist that something happen just bc Camilla got upset at the shady editing

 

[ComicChick]

yeah that whole thing was weird
