    Damn, I was hoping when it got down to my pick I'd have only one name left, maybe two worth considering. Not the case.

    I'm going to go with Nany. While I don't know how this format is going to work out and I expect her to lose any elimination she faces, I'm happy with this pick. The makeup of this cast is one of the friendlier ones she's had recently and well... I'm sure she can find someone to hook up with if her back isn't against the wall from day 1.

    I drafted Aneesa in a similar position a couple of years ago, because she has a ceiling, but also has a fairly high floor

    Swaggy C seems like the exact kind of guy I hate, and the exact kind of guy who is going to get kicked off the show, for better or for worse. He's also engaged to Bayleigh, so might get some coitus points.

    Big T showed heart last year, but little else.

    I'll take Swaggy C, and gamble that either he gets kicked off for big points, or gets major drama points. Maybe I'll even get to use my waiver pick.

    Hmm. So mix of formats, like in Free Agents. Wonder if they'll have the kill card back.

    Asaf listed as being from Celebrity Ninja Warrior.

    Good enough premiere. I'm kind of over the whole tribunal thing in general, but things could get messy when there are team challenges and people find themselves unable to control both sides of the vote.

    Giving this Bananas-Wes alliance 3 episodes max before Bananas backstabs him and they show flashbacks to a confessional from 2 seasons ago when Bananas was all like "I wouldn't have pulled the trigger on him this early, but I should have known he'd jump the gun" and say that he had to do it first.

    Rogan thinking that Corey is neutral and is a great asset to have is hilarious. CT was the obvious choice as the 3rd. He'd give his "Whatever you guys want to do" and that'd be that. Does Rogan even watch this show?

    Nany's going to have to find a different person to bang in episode 2.

    No idea why there's this whole "afraid of Bayleigh" thing. Jennifer Lee actually said that her time on TAR prepared her for this.

    Jay's confessional about his mom and wanting to win money for his family was nice, but seemed like the kind of confessional for literally every show besides this.

    I love the idea of a Bananas-Wes alliance, but it definitely does seem like it will just be a matter of who backstabs who first, and them both trying to jump the gun, as you said. But it should be fun while it lasts.

    I don't understand the afraid of Bayleigh thing, either. I don't watch Big Brother, though, so maybe she was a terror? I dunno. I laughed out loud at the Jennifer Lee TAR line as well. 48 hours of a reality show five years ago got you ready for this? No.

    Jay was a nice guy on Survivor, his Mom came up then, too. There was actually a Total Madness challenge ad during Survivor tonight, and they didn't actually feature Jay, which I thought was odd.

    Guessing that Dee was kissing Jay in the trailer, but also might have been Kyle or Kaycee.

    I feel like the Bananas-Wes alliance is too little too late. Would've been an awesome force 5+ seasons ago, but they don't command anywhere the fear and respect they once did. Like Vil said, it lasts three episodes at most.

    Challenge 35: Total Madness

    Dee had the whole world in her hands and chickened the fuck out. God damn that was a terrible look for her. This whole episode made her out to be a psycho.

    Yeah, Dee did not look good at all tonight. And she's making out with someone -- Jay, maybe -- next week.

    Very low scoring first two episodes. Only a tiny bit of kissing, no big fights. Uneventful fantasy game so far. I didn't even notice any quality confessional cleavage tonight.

    Jennifer Lee is very pretty, but she did as well on The Challenge as she did on The Amazing Race - went out first. Technically second here, but she was eliminated the first time she possibly could be. I wonder if she can make a career out of being eliminated first on reality shows. Survivor, Big Brother, America's Next Top Model, and more!

    Just caught up. Some thoughts/questions from the first two eps:

    -episode one - math problems - Were they ignoring order of operations??? One of the equations was like 65-54+53/2. If you do it correctly there's going to be a decimal... might need to rewatch that scene

    -the bayleigh "PROTECT MY MANS" schtick is already annoying. At least try to act like an adult.

    -Bananas trolling Jordan after he fucked up the second challenge was extremely enjoyable. Not sure why Tori wants to put up with that crap for the next 50 years

    -Dee still calling Rogan "my man" a YEAR after he betrayed her is incredibly embarrassing. Strange that she calls future hookup Jay "her type" when he's the exact opposite of Rogan in every way who was previously "her type"

    -asian Jenn was decent looking but I didn't realize she went out first on amazing race. Why the fuck was she casted? No physical ability whatsoever

    -Asaf got a raw deal going against Jay in that elimination. Jay probably beats every person in the house in that event

    -Some of the strategies based on the "twist" (which isn't much of a twist) seem dumb to me. Of course if you can pull a Jenny West and go against a layup you do it, but otherwise I'd still avoid the eliminations. Almost everyone is bound to go in without trying anyway and you don't want to go in twice

    I think one of the confessionals in the middle of that event said they were to do the problem from left to right. I *think*. It didn't seem to cause any chaos amongst the players, so presumably they knew, even if it wasn't clear to the viewer.

    It was annoying, but I'm also curious why it actually worked. I feel like that kind of attitude, a few years ago, pretty much guarantees people throw Swaggy in just to cause house drama. Not sure what changed.

    Yeah, Dee pretty much sucks. There's a reason she was cast on Geordie Shore, though, I suppose.

    I think she's a lot more than decent looking, even amongst the abnormally hot group of Challenge women, but I think that's the only reason. No idea why she was cast beyond that. Maybe she has lots of Instagram followers? I dunno. I would have paid like, actual money, to trade Jenn out for Averey.

    That had occurred to me, too. On The Island, all four people without a key had a chance to take the final key. I imagine something similar will happen at the end of this season, and there will be a purge-like event when everyone who doesn't have a Red Skull will have a chance to earn one. Your chances are probably better in an average elimination than in a four person purge, but still, do we really think Jay isn't going to go in a lot more this season?

    Right??? All of the confessionals were saying "oh man we better not mess with Swaggy and have to deal with Bayleigh!" I must have missed why she is intimidating?

    Yeah, Dee pretty much sucks. There's a reason she was cast on Geordie Shore, though, I suppose.
    I still have a soft spot for her australasian sexiness but the poor girl is dumb

    That's fair... I'm attracted to most Asians but she's a little too skinny and plastic looking for me. I didn't think about the influencer angle though, you're probably right.

    Lol right, and immediately after CT is complaining (?) that he doesn't have enough friends to get thrown in? Wtf? People need to relax, there's still 50 people in the house and plenty of time. If it's late in the game and you're missing a skull, it's a good problem to have since you made it that far in the first place. I think the format does set up well for vets/favorites trying to pick their fodder of choice and having it backfire

    Oh one other thing, we give Dee a lot of crap but I thought she handled the tribunal pretty well. Tori/Jordan's argument was pretty weak and hypocritical ("it's a clean slate but you still owe us from last year!"). It would've been fun to see Dee go against Jenn but I get that logic of not wanting to take that plunge when you find out 5 seconds before and still don't truly know what the elimination is.

    Great episode. I felt like they talked so much shit about Jay and his construct, that he was guaranteed to win. I really thought Dee was going to try to make Rogan jealous and he was going to barely notice. Kind of disappointed he didn't, actually.

    Other thoughts:
    Spoiler: show

    Dee, trying to make Rogan jealous doesn't work if he doesn't care about you.
    That blanket is amazing in a bad way.
    Airing "I have a photographic memory" is a way of the producers telling us this person can't win.
    Bayleigh confessional cleavage early leader.
    When did Snooki become the most normal looking girl on Jersey Shore?
    Oh shit, that was an actual explosion.
    Rogan: "Jay looks like Frodo." LOL
    Wes actually voted to protect Bananas. Guess their alliance is official.
    OK, well, maybe Rogan is actually bothered a bit. I was wrong.
    I liked Jay on Survivor. I like him here.
    Dee takes confessional cleavage lead.
    I like CT, but I am very much rooting for Jay just for fun.
    This is not a brute strength challenge. Good chance for Jay.
    Everybody is talking so much shit about Jay's strategy, it makes me think Jay wins.
    Hah.

    Awesome episode and elimination.

    Because this is the kind of shit I think about, what's the best way to do these "knot the rope for your opponent to undo" eliminations? I think you tie big, complicated knots and then tighten it with your whole body as much as possible. You can get MUCH more leverage tightening something than you can trying to loosen a rock of a knot.

    It was hilarious how normal Rogan's flirtations were then we have Dee literally just saying "I'm not voting for Jay bc I think he's cute and want to get to know him better." It still worked somehow so I guess she and Rogan deserve each other.

    Week 4 Scoring:
    My thoughts:
    Spoiler: show
    Kailah's got some bad layringitis.
    Bear is the type of guy who makes me very glad I don't have a sister or a daughter.
    The best part of Bear's fireman routine is the guys outside the window watching in amazement.
    They find this warehouse in a Metro: Exodus lot?
    TJ: "This is gonna suck." Me: "Yessssss….."
    Mattie Lynn leading cleavage award so far
    Jordan going with the Simple Jack look. Never go full retard.
    Team 1 seems very strong.
    How did the Safety Department sign off on this one?
    Who wants to go in after the last team all got medical attention?
    There's a huge difference between 60 degree water and 51 degree water. Huge advantage to go first.
    Aneesa takes the cleavage confessional lead
    Didn't Bear beat you in an elimination last season, Wes?
    Bananas calling someone else a snake is very hypocritical.
    Kailah respects stalkers, apparently. Everybody's got a fetish, I guess.
    Ashley's not a layup here. Will be interested to see who wants to take her on.
    My girlfriend thinks Aneesa looks like she belongs on Orange Is the New Black
    Dee wants it. Good for Dee. One champion going home tonight.
    Rooting for Ashley. Dee's been annoying this season. Guess Ashley has two, of course.
    "I can't be broken," said the girl who quit the challenge twice.
