Thanks for mentioning Pluto TV. I installed it on my TCL Roku TV and have been watching challenges ever since. It's crazy how many people have been on the show that were popular good competitors that have been long forgotten.

Do they show seasons 1-20 on there? I looked on mtv.com and they only have the last ten seasons. I really want to watch the older seasons like Fresh Meat 2 and the original Real World/Road Rules challenge seasons.

I don't know. As far as I know the challenges are only shown live and not on demand and right now they're showing one from six or seven years ago

And the irony play is complete. Both challenge throwers are out.
Nice job by the Challenge production team to let the series of events play out naturally. Given that of course they know how things went they let it breathe and didn't give in to the temptation of overplaying their hand with cheap foreshadowing and such.
Also, is it just me or has the music used in the show taken a massive step up in quality this season?

I went on vacation and haven't been able to watch the last two episodes until recently. It's always nice to see Bananas go out early. I saw that he, Wes, and Laurel were walking the red carpet at one of the MTV Awards shows. The Challenge was still filming this season at that time, so I had a feeling all three were eliminated early. Has Bananas had Botox or work done? His face looked a bit plastic this season. It could also have had to do with the shape of his beard too. There's so much infighting on the American team, that I wouldn't be upset if a CT lead UK team upset the Americans. Some of the Americans are getting insufferable.

I finished the latest episode this morning while I was working out. I'm surprised Jordan hasn't learned that yelling in someone's face might ended up getting you punched. Bear was was much more easier to handle this season than last season, but it's still good to see him go.

Double elimination on the past week's episode. I'm surprised Kyle was nominated. Is team UK really wanting to lose their best players? I wonder how many players will be left on each team when they finally run the final. If this week's episode was the halfway point, this season may run until Christmas.

Wow, no Cara is like no Bananas. Natalie isn’t back, Laurel is a no, Georgia is a no. If they bring in new people, they should be able to do better than Josh and now Swaggy. Nice to see Jenna back but she’ll look good for a few weeks and get eliminated.
I probably won’t stop watching the Challenge until I retire and move with my wife to Portugal and if it airs there, we’ll keep watching still.
However, this is one of the worst groups I can recall. Jordan is always a great performer but has an annoying personality and even listening to Wes talk is annoying.
A lot more people this season I don’t like very much compared with this pretty great season airing now and as far back as I can remember.

That list isn't complete. It's a living breathing list. The source behind it is pretty accurate, but they've been wrong before. I think the potential female cast is really strong. I feel like Cara needs a break and The Challenge fans need a break from her. I'm completely fine with her not being on the next season.
I think it’s a weak cast, male and female. Hope you are right that a few more people I tend to enjoy watching are added.

Whether you like her or not, she has basically been the female “star” of the show who always returns like Bananas. He doesn’t take a break and there have been plenty of times where it would have been nice, although he’s just there to get his appearance fee and promote his brand now because he will be lucky to even get to another final.

Read an article that Paulie and Cara broke up over texts he was sending to his ex-girlfriend, even though he & Cara were supposed to be in an open relationship.

Old CT now says that fuckers crazy and I ain't getting in the middle of that.
Turbo is just crazy, incredibly insecure or very immature. Likely all three but damn that was hilarious.
And I laugh my ass off every time I hear him call Jordan, "Pussy Chicken!" or "Chicken Pussy!" Fantastic!

That's a great question! I know I am a little partial but I really think young and crazy CT would have taken out Turbo. Turbo is one of those guys that is as tough as nails, looks fucking crazy and talks nuts but one massive crack to the jaw and he likely folds like a piece of laundry. But that would have been an awesome fight to behold.
That always cracks me up. He knows like four derogatory words in English and he just puts them together in random order over and over.

This episode was incredibly quotable. Ashley had some great lines too.
I think in-his-prime, roid raging CT, with several inches and probably 50 pounds on him, would destroy Turbo. We've seen CT in action, we haven't seen Turbo one on one or actually get physical with anyone. I'm sorry but I'd start cracking up at his manlet with a puffed chest fragmented English tough talk tirades if I was there. Like I realize he likes to kick stuff and he trains Muay Thai but the dude is such an over the top cocky try hard, it's hard to take him seriously. Jordan is an arrogant douche but I side with him totally, like how would you resist triggering Turbo now that you know how easy it is to tilt him.
