Spoiler Alert!
Hey guys!
What an interesting and exciting new episode!
Honestly, this was a redo of last week's episode - a much better one, to be fair.
Something odd that happened in this episode was the amount of "drama" they started the episode with. I get it, with everything that ended up happening, they had to set up everything really well, but it sort of took a bit too much time. The good thing is that, once it got into the daily challenge, it was non-stop of what we love about The Challenge - daily, deliberation, nominations and elimination.
The actual daily challenge wasn't that interesting, honestly. What was interesting was how things developed. Heat 1 was super intense with all my favourite teams competing in that one. Needless to say that I was rooting for Bananas and Nany (mostly because I just had a feeling they were going into elimination), but I was rooting for Jay and Michele as well because of everything that happened last week. It's crazy because Jay and Michele were one of the last teams to get to the puzzle and, somehow, they won heat 1!
I was happy indeed! And as far as Heat 2 goes, Olivia and Horacio won that one, which was also nice.
Ultimately, I wanted Jay and Michele to win and, guess what?! They did win, which was good and bad for them. Good because, obviously, they were safe, but bad because, if everyone was already pissed at them, they were about to make even more people angry.
This time around, however, I feel like they made the right choices (I feel like I should also mention that Jay made most of the decisions this time, which was something that people criticized last time - how bad at decisions Michele is).
Well, this time they decided to, indeed, make some big moves and I personally agree with the people they chose. Laurel and Jakk were an obvious choice - they were already pissed at them; Bananas and Nany were kind of obvious as well because they got so much backlash last time for not putting them in; then, Jordan and Aneesa were sort of obvious as well - they picked them last time so no need to make anyone else angry and plus, they are indeed a strong team; lastly, the not so obvious choice, Kaycee and Kenny, but I actually agree with Jay and Michele's thought on this one - their goal was to send Laurel home and, in order to give Nany and Bananas a better chance at being saved, Kenny and Kaycee were the better choice (also, they are a strong team as well, so if they went in and went home, nothing was lost).
Well, obviously, with these choices, they did make a lot of people angry - mostly the vets - which is ironic and sort of hypocrite of them to be angry at Jay and Michele for making big moves and sending into possible eliminations strong (vet) teams.
Things did change a little bit last minute, however.
As I said, their plan was to send in Laurel and Jakk right away - easier. But, Jordan f*cked things up in the interrogation, calling Jay weak and whatnot and, honestly, they had it coming.
Yes, Jay and Michele decided to throw Jordan and Aneesa right away which wasn't exactly a bad move, honestly. Even more when, at firt try, Nany and Bananas take out the SAFE dagger and, obviously, they saved Kaycee and Kenny - therefore sending Laurel and Jakk against Jordan and Aneesa - two strong teams. And even though Jay sent in Jordan, I gotta be honest, I was rooting for Jordan and Aneesa to win. I just never liked Laurel and she was really getting on my nerves these past episodes. Jordan is also sort of annoying but I think he got better over time. Also, we just have to be real - he is an amazing competitor and he truly deserves to be there.
I guess I got what I wanted because Laurel and Jakk went home. This isn't the best case scenario for Jay and Michele because now Jordan is pissed and Tori is pissed as well and Nany and Kaycee are pissed so... A lot of teams are against them, which makes it even more fun to be rooting for Jay and Michele!
In terms of next week, I have no idea what's going to happen because the promo was really vague. However, one thing is for sure - Devin and Tori don't win the daily challenge, because they were talking about something to do with being saved or something... Can't remember exactly but that's what I got from it.
But that's it for this week.
Overall really enjoyed this episode and I would love for Jay and Michele to keep winning daylies so no one could touch them (also would love to see them win, but I'm pretty sure Bananas and Nany are going to win this season).
Anyway, let me know your thoughts and I'll talk to you on my next rant!
Love,
Daniela.
