Zito went from a Guy to a girl and then to a guitar all in one season.

I thought it ended up being a really enjoyable season. Since Adam and Leroy are on the next challenge, I hope the rest of the cast shows up on a Challenge show in the future.

In those 70's short shorts he was wearing.

They only go on the Challenge if they're that desperate for money, want to extend their 15 minutes, or they can't hack the college lecture circuit.

Or are twenty somethings who get a chance for a free international trip all expenses paid for a chance to win money. Now yes there are a fair share of douchebags on this show who just won't give it up, but seriously I can't fault half these kids for going on this show. It's when you get to Paula's stage that it gets pretty sad.

Beth takes the cake, she had to be pushing like 50 when she was on the challenge. She was on the 2nd season of the Real World.

I'm disappointed now that we've had two Las Vegas seasons without one complete degenerate gambler in the mix.

Agreed. It seems like they completely missed the mark of the Vegas market. It seemed like they stayed inside all day and at the Palms all night.

Also, how did they only manage 20 minutes of footage from a week-long Cancun trip???

Considering they were in the same hotel/room the Cancun cast lived in, I'm guessing the hotel was not going to let history repeat itself in any way and laid down some ground rules.

Therefore the footage overall was boring.

The whole season was unremarkable in most every way. Incredibly dull people doing incredibly dull things. The only one trying not to be dull was a completely heatable total assoholic. I'm really starting to wonder what purpose this show serves any more beyond generating challenge fodder.

Just a lot of drunks and sex maniacs.
As far as what the shows offer now, not much. I started watching when the show was new and it was nothing like this. This show is nothing like it was in the San Francisco, New York(1st season) and Los Angeles. Now they just pick a bumch of people who like to fight and drink and make fools of themselves.

Is MTV too cheap to shoot the reunion show in HD?

It seemed so out of place since the whole season was shot in hd, but the reunion was not. What were the big themes of the reunion show. Adam is a d-bag, Nadie felt like an idiot after watching the season, and Mike hates Dustin. Btw season 26 is going back to San Diego.

I'm surprised they would do San Diego before repeating some of the earlier seasons. I would think that Miami would be near the top of the list of cities to repeat. Also Boston and Seattle should be repeated ini the near future. If they did a season in Paris, why couldn't they do a season in Rio?

I don't recall them ever shooting any of these reunion/shot in front of a studio audience type shows in HD. Why they put these out in quality that would be embarrassing for a webisode is beyond me.

Dustin has serious issues for sure, but Mike is a pretentious dick.

Hes Cliff Claven. He tries at every turn to show people how smart he is. But he isn't 1/10th as smart as he thinks he is.

The "Shit the should have shown" Show was great. Its funny that Nani literally hooked up with every girl in the house including Cook.

Where the hell was all this casual lesbianism when I was in college?

They sure did show Naomi shitting a lot, and Heather was pretty hot in that scene when she kept saying "Oh Baby".
