Thank you!

My first thought when I heard the theme was: everyone's going to agree to split whatever money they win with their family member. Like, idk if it's just because I'm super close to my sister or whatever but I think it'd be stupid NOT to make an agreement like that with your family member. So then it would still be like family members are on the same "team" even if they're TECHNICALLY on different teams which = less drama IMO

What happens if there were two big teams, you win the daily challenge and your blood one is in danger getting voted off. I don't think drama would get any less tbh, especially if the love ones/eliminated one are there the whole time and people can vote someone in. Great for strategy.

I'd just be like "see you at home, hopefully with some cash we can split"

But the biggest reason I hate the theme is that it doesn't indulge my challenge nostalgia at all lol. Only 1/2 alumni just sucks in general and the fact that some of these "alumni" will be challenge rookies from newer seasons of the real world means there are only going to be like 1/3 alumni I actually like/care about. Just shitty all around

Yeah at first I was kind of excited by this just because I wasn't expecting such a different theme but then the more I got to thinking about it, it's like yeah....it will only be half cast members and then the other half their family members....then of the cast members, a good chuck of them could be newer people, so it might not be so great.

That's actually one of the few good things about this format IMO.

Speaking of siblings, we've seen the select few starting to train together but do you think we could see some alumni being pissed that his/her "bloodline" got picked to be on challenge because they see it as their "thing" and don't want to share the spotlight?

I personally hope the Bloodlines steal the show. Let's get some new regulars and remind the current lot that they're only temporary and their popularity can most certainly fade.

 

amen bro

Some people can't recognize sarcasm...lol. I know he's banned. I just thought it was funny because if you mention either of them it starts a landslide of "love" or "hate" comments.

Sarcasm is at its best when delivered orally, with proper inflection of voice.  It rarely plays well when written and read by people who don't know each other.  Pardon

 

Very true. Doesn't help that I mostly lurk looking for news.

Never, never, read a discussion thread for news.   Stick with the official thread if you just want the facts.

We may see Marie but that is it lmao 

 

I really hope for theme change. Something like Cutthroat that widens the casting pool a bit and majority FM2-AYTO people cast that we have not seen in a while since they don't plan on casting many old school people. 

St.Thomas cast ranked as being good addition to the Challenge both competition and drama-wise

1. Marie 2. Treyist 3. LaToya/Robb/Swifty-Swift 4. Laura 100. Brandon K.

I think Marie might be the only one we really need if Trey doesn't get a call.

But I think Laura could be a good addition now that she isn't so far up Trey's ******* lol 

She isnt? Based on tweets and ig comments, I think as soon as they are in the same house they are going back to their old ways

 

hahaha - totally agree.  They still flirt on Twitter :o)

I'm of two minds about this. I can see why some folks don't want the same vets back on that have been on so many challenges in a row but if it's all Real World Explosion or Skeletons people, I'm really not interested, no thank you. I would really like some vets on that haven't been on in a long time, mixed with a few vets who are on a lot that are my favorites and then a couple new people, that's it.

He's a DJ or something similar right? If so, it's probably a stage name that he goes by.

Probably. JayG sounds better than Jay Mitchell

He was a DJ he said he was an "MC" to get on The Real World and then everyone learned he hasn't MC'd for years

I think they were talking about Laura. But all of St. Thomas is on good terms except Brandon Kane. Latoya said they all have a group message they talk in now and he is the only one not in it.
