[QUOTE=jojorules;304190]Johnny was a guest on thedirty radio show and basically said he will not be on the next challenge. He normally would have just said we will see but he basically said don't expect him to be there they want someone else to win. He didn't seem happy about it.[/QUOTE]
I can only hope so. I need a break from him.

I just heard that, he also said that he ****** production off.

SMH. I thought it goes without saying that you don't **** off the people who write your checks. I guess you live and you learn.

He said that was the #1 reason. It was kinda weird, because he got all somber when he explaining it.

Well karma is a beach. :devil: He shouldn't be putting pterodactyl-sized bugs in girls' hair.
Do you know when he said that in the interview? I know that it wasn't toward the end they started to take phone calls and to talk about the tooth brush, camilla, and mark's age.

The toothbrush? What is that referring to? It's not the Tonya allegations, is it?
Brandon hinted on twitter/Facebook that he's had some kind of medical testing done recently.

Does BMP make them take physicals?
First of all Thank God they forced Johnny Bannanas into retirement. I really hope this isn't another pairs challenge I'm getting sick of seeing strong competitors lose because of their weak partner and I'm sick of seeing mediocre competitors paired up with strong competitors then making it to the end. I've heard rumors that this could possibly be a BFF team format or a Battle of the Seasons format I just hope they're not true, I do wonder how they would do a Battle of the Seasons 2 especially because the 1 season happened 10 years ago.

It is possible that he isn't liked by the production crews but is liked by production management, though I would never understand the latter. I am sure he will be back at least once again. It is not that unusual for a winner to take a Challenge off, voluntarily or not.
[QUOTE=mizwood;304195]I always thought Johnny is good friends with BMP. But I'm really happy if he won't be on the next one.[/QUOTE]
Finally a challenge without johnny,yeah I always though he was a favorite of BMP,bc he was cast on the past 4 challenges wonder what he did to **** the production
A link to the interview would be appreciated if available. I'd love it if he took a challenge (or 10) off.
I know he's good at the game and all, but I just don't like him. Never have. And I never can understand how the people who have to know they're at the lower end of the totem pole or pecking order don't band up and prevent known politicians (Kenny/Wes/Johnny/Evan) with alliances off as soon as possible. Take over the game, throw wrenches in.
Why do you go there and allow yourself to be picked off? You know you're not in the main alliance, and you know when the rubber meets the road, they have each others backs and not yours. So get rid of them.
/end rant
Wasn't there a season where when someone was voted into the elimination round, they got to pick who they went against?
I'd like to see that again.

I've been told Wes is pretty tight with BMP, so he's got an essential lifetime pass to the challenges.
And I remember there was a lot of negative Johnny rants on twitter when we won BOTE's.... so BMP might not have an ax against Johnny per se, they're just trying to appease the masses.
They didn't force Johnny into retirement, just chose not to cast him...along with CT and several other regulars of recent challenge. I think they're going to use this challenge to develop the challenge personas of some newer people moving forward but with the lack of the ratings drawers in recent seasons, I don't know how well that'll work out for them.
Disappointed to hear CT won't be on. I know you know him, so I'm assuming you're 100% certain on that.
I want CT to finally win one of these. He's the best competitor, physically.
townie... do you know if CT is bothered that he's never won? Or does he really not care?

Before Duel 2 I know it bothered him because he lost twice because of out of shape teammates & because of a cheap DQ but I don't think he really dwells on losing these past 2 seasons...I think after the fight with Adam and being gone for so long that he has a better appreciation for the whole experience. He still wants to win, don't get me wrong, but he doesn't judge the whole challenge experience based on whether he won or lost anymore.
Well you can't keep going to the same 5 people forever in order to get good ratings (Johnny, CT, Paula, Wes, Kenny).
I'm excited that we're going to get to see a newer cast. Lets hope some of them are exciting.

Same here I wouldn't mind to see CT in 3 consecutively challenges unlike johnny,Im fine with the idea of giving a break to the regular cast: paula,johnny,kenny,evan, it was about time.
Damn townie... you took some wind out of my sails revealing CT wouldn't be on.
Should I be embarrassed that I'm such a CT fan? Naw, I liken it to having a favorite fighter or sports team.
I like strong players who are confident, not afraid to go into elimination rounds, and back up their talk.
Few are like that. Landon, CT, Alton. That's it. The rest rely on politics, alliances, and side deals.
And the thing is, CT is what, 31 or 32? He's probably only got a few seasons left. Knowing what a ratings draw he is, MTV should be milking him for all they can, while other strong personalities/players develop.

Then I might actually watch all the way through this time.
I don't understand why everyone has such a massive ***** for CT. I just don't understand the allure.
I'd much rather see Landon. That guy truly is a beast who will drag any anchor to the finish line. And he genuinely is a nice guy.

Can't speak for anyone else, but I root for him because he's a great competitor and fears no one. A lot of these people are solid, but when they'd kill a small child to avoid going into an elimination round. CT isn't afraid. I appreciate the competitive spirit.
Also, I haven't watched Real World in years, and I'm naturally kind of partial to some of the "older" competitors as opposed to a lot of these new people I dont really even know.
Austin was the last season I watched. I liked Wes until he became a caricature. But I never liked Danny.
Also, I just want to see CT win one. I think he's earned it. Sorta like how, despite never being a Bronco's fan, I wanted to see Elway win that Super Bowl in 1997.
Once CT wins, I'd be fine with him riding off into the sunset or whatever, and LeRoy would probably become my new favorite. He seems like another real strong competitor who can back up his talk. Even though he doesn't run his mouth.

Icic. Makes sense now.
I am a huge fan of little lee and big mike. I want to see these win one.
[QUOTE=Nostalgic;304252]So are many other cast members. What are you getting at?[/QUOTE]
I just side with the nice guys on the challenge and want to see them win. I am not a fan of d'bags bullies or beaches on these shows with maybe a hand full of exceptions here and there (fat Vinny being one of those exceptions).

Thanks for the link.
I can't decide who's more of a ******... Johnny or that host.
Hey, I've got an idea, lets invite a guest on, ask questions, and then regularly interupt him before he finishes the first sentence.
I missed the part where Johnnie said he ****** production off or that he wasn't coming back for the next season.
