Fk Bananas, he's a total idiot & the most annoying on the show. "Sarah is a modern day Judas". I cringed when he said that.
Jay came off as a total pu$$y the way he let Bananas talk to him in one of the last episodes & during the reunion.
Anyway, what ever happened to Kenny & Evan? They havent been on in years.

Sexual assault charges that were settled but they are
banned from competing is the general consensus.

Really, what was he supposed to do? Fight Bananas and make an already ugly reunion into something criminal? Jay and Johnny are both idiots so neither one of them was going to out debate the other.

I can't believe how terrible these people are or else they are great at playing their parts.

Nia rags on Jay for quitting and says he was a waste of a spot on the final. This coming from someone stupid enough to get thrown off the show and putting Leroy of being in the position to not get to even compete for a spot in the final. By the way, regardless of whether Theresa deserved a spot in the final or not, her replacing Nia made Leroy's chances of winning better. She was the waste of a spot before Jay was.

Glad Sarah won. Wish I hadn't subjected myself to the reunion.

Bananas also said Sarah is now branded because of her behavior. Who, after all these challenges, is more branded than him? As a total, lying a-hole. I'm sure he's probably a decent guy in real life but when you Attack Sarah like she's a serial killer and you call her branded, all the while wearing a t-shirt for Diem that you're selling for charity, you then make it fair for others to question whether you're doing it for the right reasons or doing it to make the Bananas brand look good IF you follow Johnny's own logic.

Nice that Sarah tweeted out last night that she learned everything she knows from Susie Meister.

No, he's not. At least from the one night I met him at the bar I worked at while in college. Him and Svetlana were there doing one of those dumb appearances where they do nothing but drink and go on stage once or twice just to get people to come out to the bar. Yeah my sample size is small and I was only around him for a few hours, but he still acted like and gave off the air that he was a total prick.

Maybe he's grown and matured since then, but my experience was that he's the same then as he is now on the show.

I highly doubt that. I actually remember his Real World season & if I'm not mistaken he was verbally abusing Paula to the point where he had her in tears. If either of them might be a decent guy in real life I'd think it would be Jay.

I'm tired of seeing the same people on this show year after year (although I still continue to watch). Wish they'd being back some of the old cast members from the first 5 or so seasons.

Those people are well into their 40s now. Unless they are making a conscience effort to stay in shape then it could be pretty ugly. Plus, they probably have lives and are less likely to pack up and move across the world for a month.

I saw some postings online about the next season and it apparently is:
Spoiler:
A Blood vs. Water type season with Real World, Road Rules, and Are You The One personalities competing against their loved ones or family members.

Here's some more information on the new season (rumored castings and people who have retired from the show and why a few won't be on this season I'm going to spoiler tag it though):

Spoiler:
It's going to be called The Challenge: Bloodlines

The rumored cast is:

Jenna Compono, ‘Real World: Explosion’ (Bringing her cousin Brianna)
Aneesa Ferreira, ‘Real World: Chicago’ (Bloodline unknown)
Camila Nakagawa, ‘Spring Break Challenge’ (Bringing her sister Larissa)
Kellyanne Judd, ‘Real World: Sydney’ (Bloodline unknown)
Nany Gonzalez, ‘Real World: Las Vegas 2′ (Bringing her cousin Nicole)
Cara Maria Sorbello, ‘Fresh Meat 2′ (Bloodline unknown)
Christina Leblanc, Are You the One? Season 2 (Bringing her sister Emily)

Johnny “Bananas”, ‘Real World: Key West’ (Bloodline unknown)
Leroy Garret, ‘Real World: Las Vegas 2′ (Bloodline unknown)
Cory Wharton, ‘Real World: Explosion’ (Bloodline unknown)

Dario Medrano, ‘Are You the One?’ Season 2 (Bringing his twin brother Raphy)
Thomas Buell, ‘Real World: Explosion’ (Bringing his twin brother Stephen)

Also, it looks like Sarah, Jordan and Jemmye have retired from the Challenge and Paula, Theresa, Jasmine, and Katie either had a baby or are pregnant.

No Nia is a big

Another big to the return of Kelly Anne's tits.

to Cohutta who was always a personal favorite. Cohutta is the only honestly good guy and watching him get shit on constantly is a good reminder to how horrible everyone else is.

Other than that I can't get too excited about the cast. Maybe the newbies will bring it more than we expect.

Sarah retiring makes sense. She finally won and she was in for a shitty time considering how last season ended. Good for her to move on.

Jemmeye retiring must be related to Knight. Too bad. I always got a kick out of her and for some reason I can't pinpoint I was oddly attracted to her.

I don't buy Jordan retiring at all. He'll be back.

Yeah, not sure if I buy Jordan retiring either. Not sold on the gimmick this year, but not like it matters... i'm watching it

MTV seriously needs to bring Sarah back just for the tension between her and Johnny Bananas. I want how he treats her now.

Re: The Challenge: Battle of the Exes II (MTV) - Premieres 1/6/15

Seems like a horrible idea. Now we're going to see how awful and stupid these people's family members are? Someone is really going to admit that they are related to Bananas?

More and more of the people that I liked don't seem to be coming back, but with half the cast being brand new, right after a season that had a lot of new faces for me, is kind of disappointing.

Re: The Challenge: Battle of the Exes II (MTV) - Premieres 1/6/15

It seems like a lot of the core players except for Johnny Bananas are getting into their 30's and 40's and settling down and "retiring" for example Sarah and Chet recently got married (not to each other) and others are having kids. There's also been no announcement if The Real World is coming back or not, so they'll just have Are You The One? to pull new cast from right now unless they do another Fresh Meat season. I guess doing the Bloodlines season gives them a chance to get some new cast members for future seasons out of it.

New faces seem inevitable to me, ever since years ago when Road Rules went away and they had to do a Fresh Meat. Plenty of the cast that people like to see now were from that, so I don't necessarily see the big deal if some of the family members end up being regulars as it would add an interesting dynamic.

Of course Bananas is coming back. The man refuses to get a real job and only wants to live earnings from this show.

Re: The Challenge: Battle of the Exes II (MTV) - Premieres 1/6/15

What could really pique my interest in the theme is if they pull a classic TJ Twist and have the MTV cast on one team and the Bloodlines on another team. It'll create a lot more drama than if the bloodlines were paired together.

MTV is in need of a new Fresh Meat season. They should do teams where they grab a few regular cast members as captains and have them do a school yard pick of Fresh Meat players.

The show slowly started going downhill after the Queen retired.

She got a boob job didn't she? I remember her looking not as wholesome on one of those after shows.

I'm not sure if it was a boob job or just having a baby. Maybe she got them enhanced and then they stayed even bigger after her pregnancy because they look way too big. But she's still my Susie.

And I'm SO embarrassed about having a sense of humor about my favorite female reality show participant. Kelly Anne's tits have fans and we want the women horny, hot and feisty (all appropriate and expected comments for an MTV challenge thread), yet somehow I've crossed some line?
