I didn't realize there was hype around Turbo. I just thought he is one of the better additions lately. I will take him over a whiny bitch like Bear any day.
I have to admit I laugh out loud every time Turbo does some gay super-hero pose and they have special effects shoot off around him or out of his fingers or whatever.

Pretty ho-hum week this week. No final challenge and cliffhanger to know who is picked for it. We are still left with a lot of rather unlikeable people.
Just curious but what is going on with Cara and her face? I know she hasn't always had the best complexion but she starting to have that meth-head look.
In non-related news...this showed up in my email. A sale on a workout DVD with a face you may recognize: https://www.shopetc.com/blowout-sale/B001176.html
I always thought she was hot.

Aaaaah. Emily has an insane body. I miss her.
It was nice to see hear Nany say what everyone else has been thinking about Cara. She is just awful now. I think her skin was peeling. Maybe she had a sun burn. At least she got off Twitter.

This was the first episode this season since the first episode that didn't have a challenge and an elimination. I'm worried that they are really going to drag this out now after a really good pace to start the season....
Ditto on Emily. I was excited to see her on Champs vs Stars, but she's said that she will probably never do a full season of The Challenge again....

Wow...did Ninja look like a fool or what? For those who doubted Turbo, his last two performances were pretty impressive...though taping someone can't be that hard, can it? Wes???
And that chick who kept jumping on Turbo when he did nothing wrong. Who the fuck does she think she is? Obnoxious.
And Hunter is once again a whiny, pussy, little bitch. I can't stand that dude.

Ninja and Hunter were extremely obnoxious this episode. They both made fools of themselves. The really shocking thing about this episode is how Georgia got into Wes' head during The Killing Floor. Nany should have had Hunter tape Georgia up.... Also, Turbo taped an unruly passenger up on a plane? Is he the most interesting guy in the world?

This week's episode had one of the best Challenges in a few years. I wonder how much that cost? It was quite an elaborate setup. Also, never make Turbo mad. Could he win it all? He finished that puzzle quickly and he's in really good shape.

I'm glad Turbo made the final if for no other reason than I want to see what he can do there. Who are the other guys left? I think it is Wes, Paulie, Theo, and Hunter, right? Any two of those should make it interesting. I guess if I could pick two it would be Wes and Paulie because Hunter being such a baby this season almost made me stop hating Smashley for screwing him over, and Paulie winning would make his insufferability and the drama it would create monumental the next Challenge. Theo I don't really feel anything about, and Wes actually seems pretty self aware and a decent guy, which no one is more shocked than 10 years younger version of me to type that sentence.

Surprised no one has commented yet. Whether you like him or not, that was painful to watch

I'm glad to see Paulie go and cry on his way out. He and Cara have been insufferable this season. I really hope Wes can pull out a win and retire on top. The Final looked pretty brutal in the preview for next week. 50 miles?

Anyway, Paulie was such an overconfident tool, zero sympathy. That guy really thinks highly of himself, doesn't he?
Pulling for Wes as well. Really has redeemed himself over the years and has the best approach.

Totally agree with all of the above. But I really enjoyed Paulie going out like the crying little bitch he is. It wasn't painful to watch at all. And I hope to see Hunter do the same thing next week. Both guys are insufferable! And hopefully Cara doesn't win either.

Don't get me wrong. Glad he was eliminated. Still, it was painful to watch repeated 50 foot falls. Don't like him, but don't want to see him kill himself.
Of those left, I would like to see either a Turbo or Wes win from the guys or a Georgia or Maddie win from the girls.
Can you imagine what will happen if Turbo and his partner win and she doesn't share the money??

My daughter (16) was laughing when Paulie was crying. That made my day. As others have said, the whole Cara/Paulie thing has been extremely hard to watch, but I did like Cara's comment about wanting to beat him in the final.
Isn't the final just everyone on their own? I don't think they play as teams.
My daughter and I think It's going to be Georgia winning it. From what they were saying she's a big time runner, and if its that grueling of an ending, that will help a lot. And she does surprisingly well on the challenges.

Though pretty straight forward... now THIS is a final challenge. Whoever wins will clearly have earned it.

That was a Final. I have never seen so many people either pass out, cramp up, cry, or get medically disqualified in the first part of a final before. There's still 26 more miles to go.... I don't know if some of them will be able to finish.

Looks like possibly production listened to the complaints about weak finals but they seem to have overcompensated. That was a beast of a first half.
So, really, there isn’t an equal 1st place to the men top 3 and women top 3? I don’t want to seem sexist but no way the women can beat the men.
I like to think I’m fair about what I can and can’t do and I am not sure even when I was incredibly fit in college, I was ever fit enough to do that first half. It just seemed so hard.
So much better than Survivor. I hope Turbo becomes a regular but not that other loud guy who was eliminated but I’m sure he’ll be back. It’s good to have new people but I do hope the mix is just a tad better next season to bring at least a few more of the vets back into the mix. And that guy who won Big Brother was a casting mistake I hope they realize and never ask him back.

Really agree with all your points. Finals used to be noteworthy for how grueling they were, so it's good to get back there after a few lackluster finals. But they definitely went overboard if it's only half done? All their bodies are already wrecked. And no split in prizes based on sex, if that is the case here, is frankly lame and the women basically have no shot.
Anyway, loved watching the struggle. You SHOULD have people quitting/DQing because it's so difficult. It SHOULD live up to its name and be challenging. Survivor needs to hire the people who do The Challenge and just revamp everything because it's night and day how much better The Challenge is in almost every respect.

Cara Maria continues to wimp out. This time over a needle. Not having those extra fluids will cost her, not that's she's got a shot anyway, if the second half is anything like the first.
Also glad to see the real Challenge finale back.
