MTV's "The Challenge" Thread

[HoleInTheRoof]

Biggest observation from part 1 of the reunion - Johnny is deathly afraid of the number of quality candidates from this past season. The number of times he just blurted things out during part 1 - just screamed "don't forget about me!"

I don't know when the reunion was filmed but CT still looked fat and sloppy. Sounds terrible as well. And MTV is doing him no favors by having him do the weird role play thing they did. Went from being feared to now being corny.

Speaking of corny, Turbo's bit at the end to get CT riled up was corny. I feel like CT didn't even care - and I don't blame him because what Turbo did was so corny its hard to take it serious - but that CT also realized he has a reputation to keep up so he started to get loud about it. I don't think CT actually wanted any Turbo smoke, to be honest. Not that I think CT is "afraid" of Turbo, per se. Just that he didn't want any smoke for whatever reason. When Derrick called out Turbo for bashing CT for "throwing the daily" but then didn't say anytihng about Michaela throwing her daily, CT immediately chimed in and said not to bring him up. Idk, felt weak. I miss the old CT. They kind of left it at a cliffhanger that things were about to go down, but in their previews for the next episode, show CT answering questions so obviously nothing happens.

Finding out Turbo was so controlling of Sydney and how Sydney abided by him was weird. Turbo is bizarre and I think has legit culture issues.

It's a Turbo issue and not a culture issue. Yes, gender roles are different in Tirkey. But normal Turks are capable of compromising with a woman in a platonic relationship for the sake of winning $ on a TV show. He's insecure to the bone. That explains 90% of it.
