more people were laying down warm and cozy then not sleeping and standing outside. i agree the 1 min head start was a joke.. keep time and keep the lead going in to the next day.. basically there isn’t a reason really give max effort day 1..
as person that grew up in Michigan and lives in California, trudging through snow is more physically difficult but you can't escape heat exhaustion. Your body just gives out in a different way in extreme heat They've always given those short head starts multiple times in the past. The six hours of sleep was the real bonus
Read that production cut out about 2 other checkpoints from the finale footage. One was a dagger throwing challenge and another was a slingshot challenge where the winner got to assign a time penalty. I think it was also said that they had to re-route the course quite a bit on day 2 because of the blizzard, just for safety reasons.
also Jenny just became the first female competitor to legitimately win a season outright (that Cara bullshit doesn't count)
Hopefully TJ gives her a pass for quitting. Usually quitters don't come back. That's pretty impressive when she did while pregnant
2 things ppl on the challenge will never get better at: Swimming Not being stupid Being unable to do basic arithmetic is pretty amazing
T.J. tweeted that production told him she was going to quit and to be nice to her because she had a good reason...sounds like she may have figured it out right before running the final. He had zero issues with her bowing out.
"Uh production, I'm really tired, throwing up and haven't had my period in 4 months. Thabsk for the weekly chrkcotho!!"
Bananas said the next season is "in motion." They pitched the idea of The Challenge: Besties. Team of 4, like battle of the seasons. 2 male/2 female.
Reddit has been posting a lot of old clips of house parties and dress up parties. Kinda miss the old days when they weren't so serious and could have fun. I get that there's a lot more money on the line but it's just starting to get generic.
Wonder what it would be like if they took the 1mm prize back down to the normal 200k and then took that 800k and spread it out to the contestants. Would be an additional 25k per contestant.
Anything interesting supposed to be revealed in the Reunion show? Seems like it should be rather calm, since they had to do it via Zoom.
I gotta think it’s mostly about Melissa pregnancy, Zack/Jenna drama and praising Johnny. Josh will cry a few times but that’s about it I’d imagine.
Finally finished the finale after getting spoiled on who wins Is it just me or did that final seem very short?
Not confirmed but my secret inside source told me so, which is why I checked Twitter. I hope it isn’t true. But he also wasn’t on the reunion. Maybe just a time out for a while.
I found it funny during the Final Bailey was saying her and Swaggy really need the 500K for their wedding, when Swaggy was bragging he made 700K a month day trading on Twitter a few weeks earlier.
I was thinking the same thing. Sure seemed to be sweating it for a high profile, Uber successful day trader.
Yeah I do love how she immediately knew she tore her MCL Second I watched that I knew she was going to milk it
He posted on twitter he paid for a telsa in cash and i saw in the comments bayleigh was told to say that during the show..
Did Rogan get cancelled? Or was he just not on the finale? Definitely seems like Jordan did they didn't even mention his absence
Suuuuuure. The most expensive Tesla on the market is 200K. Still leaves quite a bit of that 700K in the bank. Not to mention what should be millions in income until their ceremony. I also don’t buy the Bailey excuse. It’s not like they require contestants to have a good reason to want the money. Occam’s Razor tells me he simply got caught in a lie.
I know Johnny mentioned this during the season, but it’s downright offensive for Chris to go by Swaggy on the show. He has zero charisma. If you google swaggy his name comes up before Nick Young’s. I will say he looks to be good at basketball (obviously vid is edited to only show their makes) he’s got a nice jumper and gave it to Fessy.
I agree. Wish it had been two shows with more intrigue and drama. finally watched the the first half of the reunion last night and I’m all in on Kyle. He was hilarious. CT looked like he might come back pissed (which would be good). I hope Jay comes back. I think he has potential. Same with Fessy. I hope he comes back a little humbled. Swaggy and Bayleigh can fuck off. I hope we never see them again. She’s even worse than the girl who got someone (Mellisa?) kicked off for bullying when they threw her clothes over the rail. lastly, it was interesting to see how many people were supporting Josh. Maybe they like having having him around because he’s easy to manipulate, or maybe he’s a good dude in person. On the show I think he’s a douche and a coward, but maybe I won’t let him bother me as much moving forward.
If they bring her back for a few more season, Bayleigh could rival Dee for the worst recent addition to the show. She's uninteresting drama and her condescending tone is pretty grating. Am I the only one that was driven nuts but Corey doing the entire stream on an unmade bed? You're going to be on national TV, at least make an effort to pull the comforter back up
Dee was a badass... she was on her way to being one of the top female players on the show, ever. She already was one of the top ladies for the 3 seasons she was on..
The only thing Dee was first at was she was first in the most lopsided elimination loss ever. Move over Bananas backpack, Dee (not) coming through.
