MTV's The Challenge: Discussion Thread [Currently Airing]

How random @ her being on a show with all these US athletes :laugh:

Her bio is such a mess I'm screaming @ the reaching

She's gorgeous!!!!:love:

The cast is great but why do we always have to have Bananas and his inflated ego back every time now ?
Love that Wes is back but he's lost the edge he had all those years ago.

Still can't get my head around Ashley being an official 'Champ' now and even more that she beat Camilla to get there. I'd say Camilla is probably the greatest female competitor to ever play this game.

I don't know who is she is

I do however know that the real story here is that reality tv legend veronica has returned!!!!

what is it? 10 years after the ruins? 20 years after her original season?

ICONIC!!!

I wish there was a clip of her flipping the whole house on the ruins last minute throwing ibis into the pit.

excuse me?

Camilla is far from the greatest female competitor!!!

Rachel! Evelyn! Kelly Anne Judd! SVETLANA :lovedup: Jodi! And Laurel is incredibly better, camila just got lucky this last season.

Camila has won 1 out of 9 challenges, with basically very challenge stacked in her favour alliancewise.

Oh my ****ing gOD VERONICA'S BACK!!!!

YASSS
and she is on the following season of the challenge that will be in colombia :cheer2:

I loved Ev!!! As a competitor she was a beast but sadly i think all that drama she got caught up in the last time she competed was the last straw for her and she hasn't been back since.
Yeah.........Laureal's a beast but there was nothing 'lucky' about Camilla slaughtering her last Season. That should have been Laurel's comp to win but it wasn't even close.
Laurel's biggest problem is her ego (and the clinger she picked up during the Season :laugh:).

I just watched the first episode of 'Champs vs. Pros'. Really enjoyed it. It's SUPER competitive. Louise Hazel is awesome........as ever! Nice to see a Brit on The Challenge

Veronica's a barely recognizable shadow of her former self. She shouldn't have left it so long between Challenges.

Have they ever had a Challenge Season start straight away the week after the last one finished like this ?

Unsurprisingly Ashley spent some of her winnings on a new pair of tits.:hee:
I thought they looked obvious straight away and then Bananas went and confirmed it.

Lolo Jones belongs on this show. So ****ing much.

Everyone hates her but it looks like she'll goddess her way through the show.

(Punk ripping Bananas a new one <3)

This special season is so good already but it's a damn shame it's a shorter season.

Lolo needs to chill the **** out a bit though!
Implying that her Charity was more important than the other pro's Charities made her look a bit stupid, especially when Louise duped her with the limes and she was too busy being a spoilt child to even notice.:laugh:

I really did love the first episode though and can't wait for the next one. It's great to see Bananas being called out too, especially by strong women! I bet he's fuming.:cheer2:

lolo vs louise is the rivalry of the centry!
so ready for Rivals 4 when they massacre everyone.

So Louise needs to be on the challenge full time :)

"im not saying Lola's name wasn't on it....just speculating"

Yay Veronica also...

I love this concept and I have watched the challenge for many many seasons now. SO excited because I feel this charity season keeps the momentum going for this series to continue. I'm loving Bananas getting his trap shut by Lolo during the first challenge. And Louise was serving class and entertainment.

This is gonna be good :flutter:

Lolo is amazing, would love to see her on CBB, she's so entertaining!

Louise is great as well :love:

Louise giving the best tactics in the elimination! Smart girl! Knows what she's talking about

So good to see a certain someone go home in the 2nd episode

I SCREAMED @ Johnny Bananas getting eliminated by WES, of all people :worship: In the second damn episode too :clap1:

First Male elimination :fan:

It made every episode I have ever watched of the challenge worth while to see Wes render Johnny speechless... :joker:

This is such a great series :thumbs:

It was just too epic for words!!!! :laugh:

It kinda' sums Bananas up that his ego is so much more important to him than any charity he was coincidentally supposed to be playing for.

What an amazing comeback for Wes too! He hasn't done well in the recent challenges but as far as i'm concerned this deserves a new membership to the Legend Club.:clap1:

OMG Challenge superstar Louise Hazel is on the Wright Stuff this morning
how surreal.

EP so good.
This season is amazing
Lolo need to calm down and loosen up
keeping that virginity has sent her crazy

Lolo and Louise HATE each other now, twitter beefing

Louise's praise of CT in the latest episode was pure class (as is everything she does).

Such a fantastic woman!!!:clap1::love:

This show just gets better every week! Wes is killing it this Season. Great to see him excelling instead of being constantly sniped by Bananas the asshole . So glad Wes sent Bananas home early on. He brings such negative energy to these challenges.

Louise is a weekly Goddess!:love:

Did anyone else finish watching this week?
I was very impressed with this charity series. The dimensions of pro athletes vs the vets was an interesting watch...and it elevated the overall show in a lot of ways. Showing that the vets can physically compete against pros legitimized The Challenge competition wise, and the charity aspect made even bananas seem like less of a greedy git. I loved the between competitions footage where Pros and Champs were having genuine conversations as well.

I also fell in love with Wes again this series. He has alwats been a favourite of mine since he first appeared on real world... but the recent challenges he's been on have given him a bad edit. He came of well in this series... him and CT did.

Buuuuuump!

Dirty 30 has started! Anyone watching?

Yep! As per usual with me!

Not a fan of the purge :(

Losing Amanda and Ashley is not okay!

I'll turn this into the discussion thread then.

Bye @ us being robbed of Amanda, Simone, Ashley and Latoya all in the first ep. When is Latoya finally gonna get a real chance at playing the game :fist:

EDIT: Posted this before the ending, YASSS @ the secret house. Pls let Latoya, Amanda and Simone return. Actually I like all of them tbh they can all return :laugh:

"Bitch, biiiiitchhhhh, OH BITCH!"

:joker:

Wes is so hot :flutter:

There has always been something about him... for me anyways :love:

Welp it's kinda unfair that CT and Briana just get to skip the first round/elimination

Not really... the show has always brought in replacements if someone goes home for any reason other than game play near the beginning of the series... and CT was in the promo to be there... on the way to be there... and had booked time off of life to be there but was stopped by a bad customs officer... hardly his own fault.

They could've just eliminated less people in the first episode, the cast is big enough as it is :laugh:

Also with regards to the Shane/Simone fight, it was over some racist remarks Shane made:

http://vevmo.com/sites/default/files...?itok=sHZNIniC
http://vevmo.com/sites/default/files...?itok=7O9GnO3j
http://vevmo.com/sites/default/files...?itok=r1c5SfqE

But then they wouldn't have enough people for the redemption house :shrug:

I know... you would think they would just alter the eliminations in the season rather than bring people in... but they have just never done that. They have their plan for episodes based on numbers... and they try to stick to it as best they can. Every season where some one walks in the first couple of episodes... a replacement walks in. It's how they always do it.

That whole redemption house scene was sketchy. Suddenly MTV didn't have cameras on them? That never happens. But they left security up there? Sure jan
I have no doubt it was racially motivated. I hope they never invite Shane back. Both his seasons he has gone home early for physically attacking someone

Shane is a non factor always has been, the Raines brothers are messed up!

Simone always gets done dirty!

Tori is my new elite sweetheart
