I think Jamie, Vince, Shane, Brianna, and Nicole are the only ones that will ever be considered. Maybe Mitch and Larissa.

if they did another season of "battle of the seasons" i would like to see a bloodline team made up of jamie, vince, brianna, and nicole also i would love to see a fresh meat team with CM,Laurel, brandon, and idk any other guy really lol

Noor! They have to bring back Noor. It's criminal he hasn't been asked back.

I would be more than Ok with NONE of the Bloodline girls returning.  I mean just going through the list: Rianna - Can't even do monkey bars.. >.<, Brianna - Scared to eat bugs, not physically strong, Nicole - Terrible at pretty much everything competition wise, only good for drama, Larissa/Candice - Not nearly athletic enough to do anything meaninful, and to be fair we didn't see enough of Jill or Emily to make any kind of judgements, but for that reason alone BMP would probably never bring them back.  Compared to the FM 1 and 2 girls like Diem, Ev, Laurel, Theresa, CM these girls are pretty much a joke competition wise.

I don't know about that. Both Evelyn and Cara Maria went home first on their debut seasons and they became regulars. Aviv and Carley, on the other hand, won the whole thing and we never saw them again.

Are we seriously going to consider that bug mission as something to do with skill? I don't consider being able to withstand the sight of a snake, or chew up bugs, as apart of some type skill. Maybe someone can explain what kind of skill it takes to do that mission.I mean... I withstand snakes on this site all the time.

What do you consider a skill? I'm asking because I honestly want to know. The only "skill" this site seems to care about is brute strength and the size of muscles. Any elimination or mission that's not purely physical is considered bullshit here.

people just want to see indications of health and physical wellbeing which are usually best expresesd in athletic events. eating bugs doesnt prove anything except that you probably grew up in some ghetto shack and probably had to hunt for roaches to keep yourself from starving to death when your food stamps didnt arrive on time

it doesnt have to be brute strength. that is so overdone anyways since most of the time its the bigger person that has more of it. things like flexibility, balance, coordination, agility, endurance are all nice though. people do like to see physical contact the MOST though because people like seeing others act like savages and animals trying to hurt each other. doing civilized and classy things like puzzles  is considered "boring"

That is so ******* true. According to this site every mission or elimination has to be some althletic death match otherwise it sucks.  Crummy mentality if you ask me but hey, that's what people think.

Rght, it's sad. I'd rather not see a house full of meatheads and women who look like men, and see some underdogs have a way to get to the end.

We care about actually athletic ability, things where strength speed endurance etc matter not stupid shit where you eat bugs or whatever other crapshoots they do.

Well, I'm not really like everybody else? I don't consider eating bugs as an actual skill, or some kind of trait that an athlete would have. Endurance, Balance, everything else that an actual athlete would have is what I care about. But The Challenge has always been more than "athletes" to me; drama/house dynamic and an actual characters matters just as much.

Personally, I don't mind brute strength either. I thought Riot Act on Cutthroat was a pretty good Challenge that showed brute strength. Puzzles like Gas Problems (also on Cutthroat) looked interesting, too.

BTW what happened to Cooke? She was practically carrying Cara Maria in Rivals 2 and disappeared since then?

she always flip flops on whether she will come back. She always says no but during some challenges she will tweet how much she wished she was on it and how good she is at the particular skill. Personally I wish we could get her back. There's very few elite female competitors that actually bring a personality to the show in my opinion. I don't know why she has said no when Dustin and Heather are not on and those were the people she had issues with. I'd take her over Emily S or Laurel any day. 

Aneesa is going to be crying on the aftershow

We care about actually athletic ability, things where strength speed endurance etc matter not stupid shit where you eat bugs or whatever other crapshoots they do.

But this is reality TV show. I mean if you want all those things watch sports. What is so bad about Crapshoots? Those are more interesting to me because it could go either way unlike more physical stuff where someone whom is clearly the bigger or stronger one will win(not always the case but still).

Looking for athleticism on a show like this is silly as **** to me but hey...different strokes for different folks.

**** shoots are just stupid. They are literally just ****.    As long as they involve skills and aren't just pointless shit we wont complain.

Yeah I think so. I don't think the Aneesa/Cara fight will be a big deal outside of the challenge context. Aneesa had mentioned apologizing to CM on an aftershow. If Aneesa/Rianna get last in the car challenge then it makes sense that Aneesa probably blamed Rianna for her coming short for a minute.

Understood. Just called bullshit on someone that says they "wont complain".

****, based on that sneak peak it feels like Aneesa literally called up her most distant cousin to do the challenge with her. They probably hadn't spoken in ten years ****

Queen Cara slaying Mitch ***** and Aneesflop.

Jenna/Bri slaying as usual.

I wonder why Mitch doesn't like cara. 

I wonder why Mitch doesn't like cara. 

The same reason eveyone else doesn't like the ***** probably.

^^pretty much 

its just natural human instinct to have distaste for an alien and contemptible creature like cara maria

if you DONT DISLIKE cara then you shoud wonder what is wrong with YOU

on another note,i think jenna/brianna don't win the car challenge because they show them doing well at it in the clip. Same way they showed aneesa/rianna doing well in the challenge last week. i guess another cory/mitch win. It's weird to me that cory/mitch sent in cara to face aneesa if they wanted aneesa in the finals. Not to say Jenna couldn't have beaten her also at some things,but still. Unless they thought aneesa could take out cara,who knows.

Endurance, Balance, everything else that an actual athlete would have is what I care about. But The Challenge has always been more than "athletes" to me; drama/house dynamic and an actual characters matters just as much.

"Eating bugs" is not necessarily a skill, but being able to disgusting shit and get over it is part of the Challenge.  You have to be able to "stomach" doing it.  Last season Jay and Jenna were DQd from a final because Jay couldn't get over the disgusting shit.  If she can't do it then she'll never be able to win and what's the point of her being there? 

I'm sick of Aneesa not making finals, I want to see her finally get a win and then retire, like isn't that the best way to end? So hopefully we see her for Challenge 29
