    Of course CT wins the first comp. I still have my reservations about the shape he’s in but I’m rooting for him.

    My YTTV recorded it for me last night.

    Stupid that it's not on Paramount Plus.

    Can't explain that

    Yeah, I was really hoping it would be on Paramount. Also it appears that MTV let their streaming app die. I used to sometimes buy episodes on Prime Video for $1, but not seeing the new episode there either. Please help, my family is dying!

    Downside of having a stacked cast is there are fewer options I actually want to go home.

    I wonder if Leroy just showed up for the appearance check? He had a baby two weeks prior to filming and got me wondering if he mailed in the challenge just to go home early

    No doubt he's not as good as he's portrayed and has been protected by Bananas through much of his challenge career but coming out of "retirement" just after his baby was born reeks of showing up for a week and then heading home with a nice appearance fee check.

    I don’t like Paulie but I do like what he brings to the table, ie. willingness to stir shit up. Some of my favorites have gotten pretty stale on that front as they’ve gotten older, so you need people like Paulie willing to put on a show.

    I don't know...he and Kam were on that recent season where she was still fucking breast feeding. I'm not sure trying to find logic in their way of thinking is an easy path.

    That was so great...

    *Leroy was happy to leave.

    *Theo skull-fucking Paulie was awesome

    *I didn't realize how tiny Nurys was because of her massive titties. Easy W for Olivia

    *Mark is tall as shit, but Derrick is the Pole Wrestle GOAT

    *Happy for Cara. She's gonna be tough to get rid of. Kind of hot when she said "I'm not use to untying the ropes...that's the rule"

    Greet, just an hour and a half of eliminations (and the set up to them - I kind of like how they did that).

    Now I want every season to start with an insanely large cast, have some competition to determine captains and pick teams...then do a massive 8 elimination purge in the 2nd episode.

    Theo is 6-6. He used to be a hurdler, but now he’s bulked up. Probably 250-260 easily. Not sure anyone on the cast would take him in that event. Maybe CT goes Aaron Donald on him, but that’s it.

    Great episode. Daily was actually entertaining, hook ups and arguments, solid elimination and I like the curveball with the targets being added.

    Tough to tell if he wanted to go home or if he's just a complete moron...because we have plenty of evidence that he is a complete moron

    I tend to think he probably told some castmates that he wanted to go home but, like Leroy, I doubt production wanted that to be apart of the storyline.

    Averey wouldn't have been airing that out when they got called down unless she heard it from someone else. Tony, as dumb as he is, probably isn't going to outright say it either. Seems like a good way to to never get a call back in the future.

    Valid points if he felt like his Era was going to keep throwing him in but he clearly showed he was being hardheaded about it at the party the night before though.

    Not sure I would've chosen to die on that hill over Derek. He should have been out there politicking with others for the eventuality of throwing in Derek and Aviv.
