We don't need Marie and Robb to shut up Zach we just need Marie because Robb will only her back. I get that people say Latoya went off on Jordan but he declined this season and she didn't address the Nia situation when Nia was going off on the aftershow they were on nor the Swift situation on Free Agents so what would she really bring to the next season? I want to see people who have unfinished business or who will atleast throw themselves in the drama.

 That could just mean she doesn't wanna deal with all the excessive drama outside the house. I doubt she even paid the Nia drama any mind and thought she should go on an after show and go into detail about. Same for Swift, I mean if she brings drama on challenges, I don't really care if she decides to not tweet about it or go on after shows talking more about it

The Swift situation wasn't even talked about on Free Agents. With the Nia situation she talked shit on Twitter but was silent at the aftershow. This season of The Challenge is a deciding factor on if the show will get axed or not. We need people who are going to address issues and bring the drama to get the ratings up. I don't want some girl on the show who will be in drama on Twitter but silent in the house especially if she doesn't bring anything else to show like being a beast in the physical challenges. The only person who I would even care to see from St. Thomas is Marie because she doesn't back down from anyone and is also funny in her confessionals.

This season is a make or break for The Challenge so it's not even St. Thomas people that I don't care to see. I would just rather see people from The Real World, Road Rules, Fresh Meat, and AYTO who we know for sure will bring something to the season whether it be drama or athleticism. We don't need people who are wildcards or who will be background characters during filming. Out of everybody I seriously hope I never see Jay's face again though.

I'm ***uming way more people got calls this year to make sure they had enough quality pairs accept so don't get too excited seeing some of the names like Scott, Ashli, or KellyAnne.

Lord, get out of here already. We're allowed to get excited until it's proven that those three (among others) are not on for Challenge 27.

Hey *******, I want to see those three more than anyone especially KellyAnne and Ashli and was super excited when I saw they got calls. But you have to be realistic that BMP isn't going to cast quality choices a lot of people got calls because it was necessary to make sure they had enough players and bloodlines that could bloth commit. So get excited and be disappointed when BMP lets you down if you want. But there's no reason to be an *** cause I was being realistic about.

You're the only ******* here. No one was getting overexcited, you just decided to take a huge dump (like many others have) and call shit out as though we haven't heard it before. It's getting old now. I don't like people dictating when I can get excited, or when I can share opinions on a discussion forum. When a reality check is absolutely needed, I can see why reminders work. But no one needs a constant reminder. Next time, before you call someone a *******, take a big look at the computer screen that you use to name call because you can't escape that familiar name in real life.

Hey psycho mcgee *** is wrong with you? I didn't try and dictate how you feel. I didn't realize a TV show was so important to you that'd you lose your shit like I insulted your mother or something. My point was just that MTV has made it clear they only want to cast people from the seasons that pretty much caused the Real World to be canceled instead of quality old schoolers that would bring back a fanbase. They'd rather cast worthless people like Jay and AYTO than someone good like KellyAnne, that's MTV for you. My fingers are crossed I've wanted to see Ashli every challenge since The Island but I don't have that faith in MTV. I apologize that you take that so seriously and I think you should go do backflips, take a few shots, and high five random strangers over the fact that KellyAnne and a couple others got availability call.

Taking no sides in yall's beef lol but I definitely agree with the bolded.

You can't agree with bold and be wanting people from Real World: Flop Thomas on this challenge.

**** I only really want LaToya ( I think/hope her & Nia will patch things up), Marie & Robb (to shut Zach up). The other 4 I couldn't care less.

My thing is they need BALANCE. They need Coral & Nia going head-to-head, they need Beth stirring up some drama between Nany & whoever, they need Darrell getting his title back, etc.

I don't disagree with you on the cast needing balance but alot of the older cast members are done and have lives now. I mean there's barley any old Schoolers that are willing to return so how can they have this Balance?

They can start by asking the ones who DO still want to come on. The rest have openly said they would come back if production would cut the shit & give them edible food & better house conditions like they used to have, so they can start with that as well.

And if this season is make or break for the Challenge, then I hope people are getting prepared to say your goodbyes lol especially if their "zero promotion" promotion tactic is still in effect.

I will literally die lol I don't really watch anything else on TV. Every time a challenge season ends, I watch throwback seasons in my spare time to wait for the next one to air. It can't ever end )= MTV will be more destroyed than it already is without The Challenge. They promoted the **** out of Rivals II and that resulted in decent ratings. I don't know why they barely promoted Free Agents and Exes II. 

And if this season is make or break for the Challenge, then I hope people are getting prepared to say your goodbyes lol especially if their "zero promotion" promotion tactic is still in effect.

They better be promoting this season during award season like they did that flop show known as AYTO 2.

They better be promoting during The Walking Dead and Game of ************* Thrones...

"We interrupt this Bloodbath broadcast in Westeros to show you the Bloodlines of MTV..."

It would definitely leave a huge void for me!

****!

If they was smart they would air promos during Love & Hip Hop and The Real Housewives.

They need to advertise during Keeping Up with the Kardashians

For some reason they can't grasp this so they will learn the hard way...TV as a whole is on its way out though imo; Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime & various other sites are killing it right now.

I've accepted that these shows are getting ready to end soon but I would like for them to throw a bone to the ones who've stuck with the show for all this time. It's the LEAST they could do after all these years.

On another note, I'm not getting at all why Real World is in limbo when it got higher ratings than The Challenge & pretty much everything else on MTV....big sign right there though.

They should have aired one during the Bruce Jenner interview.

Yeah I don't get that either. If anything The Challenge should be in limbo but I do agree that it's a sign that they probably want to get rid of these shows now.(don't know why though, it's one of the few things people still care about on MTV they're going to need this franchise going forward IMO).

Alot of people talk about st Thomas being boring but they really haven't been on that many seasons. People forget that sometimes people on this show take time to be entertaining. Aneesa and Paula(in her case she just became unlikable) are good example. The same could happen for the st Thomas crew.

When you have an entire Real World season only entirely about the 7 of you and you have nothing to show for it that's pretty sad. That and the San Diego cast had an entire Real World season to impress viewers and they brought nothing besides a few people so id be fine with only Marie Zach and Frank appearing from those two seasons. MAYBE Robb and Latoya other than that everyone else can stay home.

Yeah Portland didn't have a great real world season but the cast individually is awesome and they have a great cast for the challenges.

me and JEKFAN agree on something lol.

I want to see people who have unfinished business or who will atleast throw themselves in the drama.

I mean Robb & Zach in an elimination or at least a physical mission (since Zach told Marie on Seasons 2 that he would "kill her man" I want to see if he can back up his talking, esp. since Robb has gotten a lot bigger & stronger)

Now you know LaToya will get into at least some type of drama. Her track record so far supports that. It doesn't have to be just Jordan, I can easily see her getting into it with Johnny B., Reilly, Zach, etc. plus there is always the chance her & Nia don't patch things up & end up arguing. Nia did destroy her on Twitter but it would be better to see it happen in person lol

If she doesn't, it would be good just to see the whole LaToya/Marie thing on a Challenge...it could bring back the humor this show has been missing for so long.

His muscles are all for show. On his physical eliminaiton in Rivals 2 he got destroyed by Tyrie in the first round and in the second round couldn't hold back dummybear. and than he lost to Knight hehehe in that sanpper elimination.

??? He didn't start lifting heavy until after Rivals 2...he hasn't been on a challenge since his weight gain so we don't know if it's all for show yet.

Let's not hype St. Thomas when it comes to The Challenge. Swift brought nothing to show aside from knocking Latoya out during the first challenge,Trey was unentertaining as usual, Robb was big for no reason and didn't contribute anything but a lame fight with Derrick, and Latoya didn't do anything special but join the "I hate Nia" club which got her scalped on Twitter. 

The only person who was entertaining was Marie. BYE!

Latoya was everything in those four episodes with her elimination round against Jemmye to calling Jordan out. I mean her not liking Nia had no impact on the season or even made air so that's irrelevant.

It made no impact because Latoya had no impact. I was all for Latoya and Swift being on The Challenge especially the same season and they failed. Marie is the only entertaining peson from St. Thomas that has been on The Challenge and I stand by that.

THIS.

I do kind of want to see Robb be on a challenge with Violetta, just to see if they hook up lol

he gained 40lbs for Rivals 2 yes he did lol.

And I hope that the people that are saying St Thomas cast is boring also don't want Leroy on neither. He's not much more interesting than most people from that cast. Same with Jessica/Preston/Brandon(I know noone asked for them on this particular challenge but still...if we're going to only want entertaining people on the show then those 4 can't be on it either).

Robb looked nothing like this on Rivals 2 but I digress...

Wow so much St. Thomas hate. I agree I think trey is boring as **** but Robb and Marie together on their season was the only thing that made st thomas bareable. I think Robb's a funny guy from what I've seen but its hard when constantly surrounded by all these huge personalities I would imagine it's easy to get overshadowed. As an avid follower of Robb's instagram,I'm a creep, I know,  I will say he definitely did gain some muscle weight before rivals but nothing close to what he looks like now.  He is huge. He says he weighs somewhere around 240. I would love to see Robb on the challenge again but I honestly don't know if he has the coordination to be successful in addition to his clear brute strength.  Also side note, I haven't posted in decades but this chick just finished grad school so get used to seeing my username around! Also I was wondering if anyone could direct me to the post with the most updated info about who has gotten phone calls?

Same with Jessica/Preston/Brandon(I know noone asked for them on this particular challenge but still...if we're going to only want entertaining people on the show then those 4 can't be on it either).

Jessica brought more to the show in her one Exes episode than most of St Thomas cast did on their season. Maybe that was exaggerated but Jessica always brings something to the show besides Rivals 2. ( fighting Jordan, hooking up/arguing with Dustin). Leroy is likable and he's usually boring but he brings competition and some entertainment even if he just starting doing this last season. Trey was MIA on Rivals 2. Laura is a pushover and will just fade into the background any show she does. Swift is a filler spot like Brandon. Brandon Kane wouldn't bring much of anything and probably wouldn't be brought on. Robb probably wouldn't be entertaining but he's a big dude now so he could do well. Latoya will just bring drama which I'm cool with. Marie will bring on both. I actually like the St Thomas cast and have no problem with them except most of them are just so boring and I wouldn't wanna waste a spot on them.

Jessica hasn't done much of anything on any of her seasons excpet maybe have a couple of fights with Jordan and that's it. Leroy is boring as all **** and has barley contributed to most of the seasons he's been on. His best showing was this past season but we're not going to see that Leroy probably ever again considering he's little else but a follower. Now I agree that Marie is the best option out of St Thomas but I do believe that the others would bring something to the show too. Robb could be competition and Swift could be halarious(he had his moments of Free Agents, mainly him falling out of his chair in the confessinlal) Laura I think could be a fun personality without Trey and Trey..well I do agree that he has been a bit on the boring side but so is Brandon and he's been on what 5 challenges now? If Brandon can get on then so can Trey. I also think that Latoya can bring something too..**** she did on Free Agents.

So no Cohutta??

Marie was awesome. I really want to see her back. She's a good physical competitor, has a ****** attitude, and brings drama to the series. She definitely is entertinment and I hope she makes the cast.
