What a train wreck.
Jenna fingerband
Laurel going after Cara Maria was Hilarious (and kinda sad)
Corey dogging Kayla
Camilla's dance and thong and fight
"A female can be replaced" by whatever his name is.
Corey and Nelson will hopefully face off soon.
(Sm)Ashley bought boobs.
Hilarious Train-wreck.

The editing is always very jarring. Any back-and-forth conversations rarely make sense because things are so chopped up you can't follow any of the arguments. People seemingly start randomly shouting at each other and the reasons are usually indecipherable. This is the case with many of these reunion type of shows. I love the Bad Girls Club reunions, but they particularly suffer from this phenomena, as though the entire taping was cut into 5 second clips and randomly shuffled together for final airing. It is so bad that it becomes as funny as anything that actually happens on the show.

I worked seven days in a row and I'm just now getting around to watching the reunion. It was good to see The Miz back on MTV. Well, we know where Smashley's prize money went.... It looks like they might be setting up Laurel and Cara Maria for another Rivals season. I don't see how anyone could beat that team and an Amanda/Camilla team would be very, very interesting. A Nelson/Cory team would be pretty strong except during puzzles.... Now onto Champs vs Pros!

Camilla's hate twerking was hilarious.

Yeah there is zero flow and they're hard to watch for this reason. Host asks quest and there's like a three sentence reply that segues into shouting. Point of these reunions should be to get backstory/flesh things out but it's mostly just repeating the same talking points we got during the season. Can't stand that chopped up, super over edited feel .. stopped watching Amazing Race because it's the same style.
