Maybe I'm the only one, but I hate the idea of a co-ed Rivals.

You're not the only one. I think it's pointless and stupid honestly. 

As if Rivals isn't already contrived and stupid enough on it's own. 

They should've done it when it mattered but the golden era people didn't need corny *** themes lol they showed out no matter what type of challenge it was.

The new cast don't need the themes, it's the current and younger viewers...The sad reality is that now days there is a reality show for everything and competition in every channel. Reality TV has evolved into trash TV/Reliable Social experiments , Viewers have evolved too that's why shows like Teen Mom/Jersey Shore/BGC/House Wives/Duck dynasty/Are You The One are sucessful.

Those challenges that were sucessful back then wouldn' be sucessful with this new generation of viewers.

It's sad how dependent viewers are on themes. Even Survivor has to constantly use them, there hasn't been a normal season in a looooong time. I'm scared for what season 30 has in store. Survivor: Rivas - Straight vs LGBT... That'll stir up some real shit!

I think that Rivals could work and it's a good Theme/Format. The problem is that there is no real Rivalries there. Counting Both seasons of Rivals there were only less than a handful of actual people who did NOT like each other and hated the fact that they had to work together. If more of those kind of Rivalries show up then it would be a great challenge and it would make for great TV.

Very true. But... we both know BMP doesn't know how to assemble a worthwhile cast.

Shit, I'm obviously joking here but they might as well do straight vs gay if they're going to do old vs young lol

Honestly, I'm expecting either Survivor or The Challenge to do it one of these days, ****!

While I do agree I think that they try. It's just seems like alot of people don't want to do these shows anymore(or will only do a certain amount of them) Not everyone wants to be Johnny Backpack.

But then there are the castmembers that get ignored for some stupid reason so part of it is their fault in terms of casting.

More like DEvolved. To be honest this is why I hardly care about the newer seasons of The Challenge & RW, trying to keep up with what's "hot" in the reality world has not done this show any good.

Man I really want to see Dan Back.

So I am watching the Ayto special delivery... and it really makes me miss the season 1 cast!! I love them! I love the bonds they have with eachother! I just would rather see all of them on a challenge over A LOT of the real world cast... So I guess I am a bad fan... but I would love to just see an all AYTO challenge Blum 3 **** or at least an AYTO vs RW Biggrin

Would LOVE to see this!! I wonder how many challenge girls scali would get with XD

I don't see how Jemmye is ugly... She may not be the best looking girl in the house but theres something about her that makes attractive.. probably those beautiful blue eyes. I saw a picture of her with blonde hair a few years ago and she looked much better IMO.

I remember watching Afterbuzz, and Jesse and Roxy were saying how uglyJemmye is. Nehemiah and Trey were co-hosting, and I remember Nehemiah saying she had "attractive qualities".  I think that describes her best lol...

She's got great legs with nice thick thighs to go with that slender frame.

**** Simone is going in on people from are you the one, I can see her doing the same once the challenge airs:

That Tweet fro Jemmye makes me think taht she was as crazy on the challenges lol

It's sad how hard she's trying to stay relevant. She did the same thing on the show. All the fights started by her were so fake, it was painfully obvious she was only doing it for camera time.

That's most people on reality TV though. Atleast she is entertaining. 

I dont watch AYTO but I went through some of the videos on MTV and that Simone chick might be a little too hood for the challenge cast lol. She doesn't seem like the type to put up with the whole "drunken arguments with finger pointing in your face" that half of the challenge girls do.

Either way im excited to see her now lol: http://www.mtv.com/shows/are_you_the_one/ep-3-sneak-peek/999551/video/#id=1721688

They can't do it without negotiating/buying the rights to "Gay vs. Straight."  The concept is registered with the Writer's Guild and was pitched to MTV several years ago by Beth and me.   (FYI, so of the cast would be bi, putting an interesting twist on things. )

In which team would you guys put Dustin?

About Simone trying to hard well Marie did on St.thomas/Seasons 2, Nany/Camila on free agents, Nia on Portland and the list goes on...

That's what get them ask for more shows even if they fight for petty reasons and it looks force. Sadly it brings ratings now days even if the argument is for an stupid reason

Ahhhhh I love Simone! She's one of my favorites because she keeps it real and honest. Plus, you can never go wrong with a ratchet black cast member. She'll be like me on VR hahahaha. And we know how fabulous that was!

Exactly **** they weren't ready for Simone just like they weren't ready for Nia. Just what this show needed though.

I hope they got along but we'll see.

 

Pinkrose said she wasn't a good competitor so IMO she's just another jasmine , someone who acts crazy and tough but can't back it up. Performance talks and bullshit walks.

I thought it was hilarious when Simone was asking Ethan & Amber why they unfollowed her. She is crazy but I think she is straight up. Jasmine was crazy but would never say shit to people's faces. Simone will.

I hate how people think that the only way you can talk shit and express your opinions good or bad you have to be some beast competitor. Not true. They don't cast everyone on the show to be ****** competitors, it's a reality show they want drama! Which is why she got selected-- not to keep her mouth shut because she isn't as good as your gf Sarah. To stir shit up and bring different dynamics to the show. 

Sometimes I question why certain people even still watch this show. 

I don't think Simone would talk shit as far as competition because I think she knows she's not an athlete (could be wrong though). Jasmine would talk shit about people's competitive abilities knowing **** well she was garbage as a competitor & that nobody would want to be partnered with her or have her on their team.

Yessssss , this is not a sports game on ESPN it is a reality show on MTV. point blank period , you need a mix of dynamics which is why this show is sinking.

This is still a competition and just because some crazy girl talks shit doesn't mean anything to me unless she can back it up, we dont need another jasmine. We need people who can compete and are entertaining
