The Challenge: War of the Worlds 2 | Season 34 Episode 11 - "All Is Fair In Love And War"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everybody!
Damn! This episode!
Unfortunately, I had already seen some spoilers so it wasn't all a surprise. The thing I saw though wasn't directly connected to the challenges so, I still had that as a surprise and I still had an overall good experience with this episode. Obviously, there's the usual issues, such as the b*tch in the banner (can't actually believe I have her as my banner).
This season of The Challenge is really going all in and, for that, I'm super excited! But, on the other hand, it made me hate people that I used to like, such as Cara. I was never a big fan of her but this season she is really messing with my nerves and her attitude in this episode in particular was so nasty that it just shows how awful as a person she is, not only in the game. But rewinding a bit...
There was a fair amount of drama in the episode, but nothing really major. The usual stuff of people talking about the numbers and such.
As for the week's challenge... I guess the UK winning last episode was a one time thing because they lost again, pretty badly. This week's challenge was wall climbing and the UK Team did awful! The US didn't do great either with 'good' competitors falling right away, such as Cara. Then, came the choosing of the Tribunal which, again, it's a lost cause and Paulie was the speaker choosing Cara and Zach to join him. 
In terms of nominations, again, it's a lost cause and the UK decided to throw in Theo. Like, they just don't learn! I know this is as much a numbers game as it is physical but Rogan hasn't been to elimination yet and it's about time! Also, I kind of agree with Theo when he said that CT has had a free ride and, after Rogan, CT definitely should go to elimination. But if Rogan doesn't go, I can't blame CT for not going either.
Anyway, Theo is the one to go into elimination and, at this point, the US is done with not throwing people from their Team (it only mattered when Paulie and Cara were on the line... It's a rigged game, for real) and so they decide to throw in Jordan. It wasn't that bad since Jordan wanted to go anyway and, after seeing what the elimination challenge was... He was thrilled!
Needless to say that Jordan did win and not only that but he proposed to Tori! I'm not a big fan of Jordan but, this time, not only I was rooting for him but I am also really happy for him and Tori and it was just a beautiful moment! Even Paulie was happy for him, which the same can't be said about Cara who just had a really nasty comment about the ring and the whole thing - and this is what shows that she's just too far gone and she needs to get away from The Challenge, do what Camilla did and just find out who she really is because Cara is either really lost in life or she just is a nasty person.
Post that, we see a preview for next week and it's girls elimination week with a physical challenge and, I played close attention to the shots so I'm pretty positive that the UK looses again and it's Jenny and Dee to go into elimination. I would love to see Jenny in this type of challenge and I would bet all my money on her, I just really hope that she wins. No matter what, it's going to be an intense elimination and I can't wait!
And that's it for this episode. Let me know what you thought. Do you agree that Cara should take a break? Tell me everything and I'll see you in my next rant!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Champs vs Stars | Season 2 Episode 8 - "It's the Final Countdown"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello guys!
I'm sorry I took some time with this post. I know this isn't a blog about me or anything but, if you follow me on twitter, you already know that my life have been crazy lately and it was just impossible for me to watch and rant about any series lately. Actually, it was a miracle I was able to watch this episode but I kind of had to because I owe this one to you so here it is, the final rant of The Challenge: Champs vs Stars.
This time, this is for real the finale and it was actually pretty funny! I mean, finals shouldn't be fun, mostly on The Challenge, but you know, this wasn't like a real real season and, let's be real, the stars weren't that great to everything was mostly for funs.
Anyway, they still had some pretty good challenges in this episode! 
The episode start right away with the announcement of who the teams where going to choose to join them in the final and my wishes came true and both teams picked who I wanted them to pick. The stars team did really do that coin toss and Michelle basically won, ending up choosing Justin to join them. As far as the Champs team, they didn't do that - they picked someone and that someone was CT, which would be my choice too. They even joked about Bananas choosing CT because they had like a rivalry back in the day and now they are kind of friends and, once again, they showed the banana backpack images from Cuthroat, which is always funny to see.
Moving on, they don't spend much time on drama or anything (because there wasn't any) and jump right into the challenge, because yes there were challenges in this episode before the real final, which is unusual. There were four challenges and who won each challenge would win an advantage for the final challenge. In the end, the Champs won three out of four and, surprisingly, the stars managed to win one challenge, throughout the whole season, which is impressive, and at the same time funny.
I don't really know what else to say about those challenges, apart from the last one which was a pretty funny one, mostly because of Bananas showing his butt and everyone commenting on that -  for example, Justina's comment about his butt being so white it was blinding them. That was really funny!
Apart from that, there wasn't much to say. In the first one the stars were actually about to win but the champs won in the end, the second challenge was really boring because the champs won really easily, and the third challenge was the one that the stars won (and then there's the fourth that I've already talked about).
And then, because they won 3/4, they had some advantages. The last challenge involved looking for tiny keys in sand in order to unlock themselves, and there were 25 keys. Well, the advantage was that, for each challenge won, they would remove 3 keys, so the champs only had to look between 16 keys while the stars had to look between 22 keys, which is a big difference.
Needless to say that the Champs won the season! It was pretty obvioust in my opinion. It was clear that they were superior, mostly becausee they won all the challenges throught the whole season so, it was nice!
And, with that, Bananas added another win to his wins, so he now has 7, which is impressive and I'm really proud and happy for him. Let's hope he wins the new season as well!
So, I guess that's pretty much it. I won't be able to rant about the new Vendettas episode so expect it in the next few days. I'm going to try and watch it tomorrow and rant about it too but I won't promise.
Let me know all your thoughts in this champs vs stars season, what you thought about the ending and I'll see, hopefully, tomorrow.
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Champs vs Stars | Season 2 Episode 1 - "Tow Big, or Tow Home"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello and welcome to a brand new The Challenge season - Champs vs Stars!
The Challenge have been on fire and didn't give us any time without a new season. Right when the last one ended, this one started and who knows if they're already filming a new one (no but seriously, if you do know, tell me because I wanna know).
Anyway, this is like a spin-off of the 'usual' The Challenge seasons, a special edition I would say, just like the one that happened in the Summer - Champs vs Pros - but this time not all the 'celebrities' are athletes which, in my opinion, is a good thing. Actually, I have a bunch of good things to say about this season!
First of all, I think this one is way better than the previous one mainly because, in the elimination, it's actually a Champ vs a Star, when in the previous 'special' season, it was team mates against each other, like a champ against other champ, which I just think doesn't make any sense so, this time, that doesn't happen and that makes this season already way better! Then, the host, which this time is The Mizz which I think is so much better at his job compared to the other one (which I can't even remember his name) and, lastly, I think the Teams are well matched like, the Champs aren't Pros, and neither are some of the Stars so I think they are well matched and it's going to be a fair competition.
Now, when it comes to the actually episode, I loved the fact that they cut a little bit the crap and went straight to the point - the main challenge - which this time was to pull a truck and in which the Champs Team won, which is always good! Because they one, they had to choose and MVP (Most Valuable Player) which, this time, was Zach and, because he was chosen as the MVP, he had to choose the LVP (Least Valuable Player) which was going to elimination. As for the Stars Team, they all, together, had to choose one LVP.
Zach ended up choosing Cory and then the Stars Team was actually going to choose Riff Raff, who basically volunteered himself but then Matt also volunteered and, in the end, Matt got the most votes so it was Cory against Matt.
The elimination was actually a prett funny one where they had to stand in a spinning big fidget spinner and throw some balls at a target and, in the end, Matt actually won. To be honest, I was kind of rooting for him... I don't know why I just was... And yeah, that was basically it.
Oh, just something before I end the rant... There was an issue with Camila. Turns out all the rumors were true and she did punch someone from the Production Team and yeah she was sent home. But, like I said in my previous The Challenge rant, she is doing so much better and I hope she keeps going with this progress because she really needed some type of help and, to be honest, as much as I love to see her compete, she should step back from the Challenge for a couple of seasons, maybe 3 and then, if she thinks so, come back because I do really think she needs some time off.
Anyway, that was basically it. Overall, a great season and I just can't wait for more! Bananas is back so you know who I'm rooting for! Hopefully stop the 'Sarah Curse' or whatever that Jemmye mentioned in the last season.
And yeah, I'll see you (hopefully) in a bit with a new The Flash rant (I actually can't wait because I dreamed about it tonight so... yeah).
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 19 - "Finale Part 2"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone and finally here's the last The Challenge: Dirty 30 rant!
I just gotta start with this... I was freaking right! I was right all this time and, in a way, I also won!
I'm sorry to start right away with the winners but... Yes, Jordan and Camila won! This is so silly but it makes me really happy that I was right all this time! I've been saying that they were going to win since Episode 10 and I just can't believe I was right! And what makes me even more proud of myself is the fact that, they just found out about a month ago so, correct me if I'm wrong, I've been saying this before they even knew it so, this is amazing!
Anyway, now that I got this out of my chest, let's talk about the stuff that they talked about in the second part of the reunion.
Just like the first part, they addressed some issues and some 'dirty moves' and stuff that happened, starting out with the Jenna and Kailah alliance and the fact that everyone, but mainly Jemmye, wanted to break that alliance. Not much went down in that talk, to be honest, but the next thing they discussed had so much yelling and stuff.
Next on, they moved to Cara Maria and all the people she had issues with, such as Kailah and Tony. Of course with Kailah there was a lot of yelling and, in the end, not much mattered, to be honest, and then with Tony, it was actually funny and kind of cute because Tony apologized and even gave Cara a donut, which was pretty cute and, in the end, it's exactly like what Cara said - Tony really is a nice guy (I didn't like him at first but I started liking him more this season) but he just has some issues with drinking and that's when everything goes wrong with him so, just don't drink.
And, since we're in the Tony topic, next they talked about what happened with Camila. Of course Camila wasn't there to talk or deffend herself but Tony said basically everything that we wanted to know and, ultimately, he was the one that was doing something wrong, because he has a girlfriend and yes has because they are still together, which is kind of cute and I'm glad they can work things out because, once again, Tony doesn't seem like a bad guy, he just does bad things when he's drunk...
The next issues they discussed was the racist things that Camila said. Of course, once again, Camila wasn't there to say anything but, to be honest, I'm actually gald she wasn't because I think she would make even worst, althought she's better now but yeah... Instead, it was just Leroy and some of the other cast members talking.
Something else they talked about (and I believe the last thing) was the thing between Veronica and Aneesa which, turns out, nothing happen. I don't know how much of that was true but ok...
And yeah, the ending we already know because I had to spill it out for you. And, I can't rave enough about the fact that I was right! Ok, I'm done now...
Anyway, let me know if you were right and, if not, who you thought was going to win and I'll see you in a few minutes with a new The Challenge rant, the new season Champs vs Stars. Oh, and just a side note, there's actually going to air a Backstage thing next week still about the Dirty 30 but I'm not going to rant about so just 'warning' you.
Ok, that's it, I'll see you in a bit!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 18 - "Finale Part 1"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!
Welcome to the not so final episode of this season of The Challenge.
I guess the Dirty 30 season played another trick on me and well this wasn't, again, the last episode, like I thought it would. Instead, they decided to split the Finale into two Parts and we are only finding out who the winners are next week, which sucks really. It was nice the first time, it was even kind of funny, but now it was too much, mostly because next week also begins the nex season of the challenge, the Champs vs Stars (another special season) and now there's going to be two episodes to watch and to rant about, and I barely have time on Wednesday's... I'll manage, though, but it still sucks for me.
So, I really don't know what to tell you about this episode, apart from the third places, but I think I'll get into that in the end of the rant, but don't expect a long rant lik they use to be, because I seriously don't know what to say. The Reunion are never my favourite episodes and I almost never watch them because I just think they're a bit boring. This time I had to watch it because I need to find out who wins this.
Anyway, I guess we'll touch on the topics they talked about.
Obviously they had to talk a little bit about some of the drama that happened, still not much though. 
They talked to Derrick, Aneesa, Jenna and other about their strategy and what not and, after just a little of 'small talk' they got into like the big subjects, starting with what happened in the Redemption House between Simone and Shane. To be honest, I barely remembered that. It was so long ago and it didn't really matter in my opinion and, this talk, didn't add much to the subject really... We just learned that Shane is a little bit of a racist and that they don't really talk anymore and aren't planning on being friends so, no surprises.
Moving on, they talked with Tori and Derrick (her ex-boyfriend) and that might have been the most surprising thing in this Reunion/Finale Part 1. Right away I said that they weren't together anymore and guess what, I was right. Turns out that, after the finale, Tori ended up hooking up with Jordan and yeah... Derrick found out and they broke up. It was a little bit obvious the attraction between Jordan and Tori, but I never thought they would get involved...
And then, the last thing they touched on was the triangle between Kailah, Cory and Aneesa. That was actually some fun talk but, like I saw somewhere, because Cory hooked up with like a ton of girls, he was celebrated and Tori, because she cheated, she wasn't 'wifey material' like one of her 'exes' that were there said so... Yeah, our humanity nowadays...
Well, the episode then ended with the third places - CT and Tori. It wasn't really a surprise, mostly because, to be honest, I just really wanna know who wins because, like you must already know by now, it's been 8 episodes since I first said that Jordan was going to win and I kept on with that feeling and saying that and I'm really close to be right so, I just wanna find that out.
Anyway, let me know your thoughts on everything that happened and last chance to tell me who you think is going to win. Oh, and just a side note, Camila wasn't there and a lot of people asked about that - she wasn't there because a family member of hers died so, there's that.
I guess I'll see you in my next rant!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 17 - "One in a Million"


Spoiler Alert!

Wow! Wow! Oh my god, what was that episode?!
Hello guys and welcome back to a new The Challenge rant, which isn't the last one this season (like I thought it would be).
Yeah, I didn't want to start by the end but I just have to!
Well, turns out there's going to be one last episode and we are going to find out the winner in that episode! That's right! TJ threw us one last dirty move this season and it's that we only find out the winners in the Season Reunion, which I think might have happened like not really long ago so, this was an huge plot twist! This season, not only the cast threw dirty moves at eachother but TJ not only threw them a dirty move but thre a dirty move to the audience as well! Seriously, this must have been one of the best and craziest seasons of the challenge so far and I'm so glad I got into the show before all this!
Anyway, now that we got the huge plot twist out of the way let's talk about what other things happened in the episode.
We saw the end of that last stage, which turns out Camila and Jordan were on the lead.
After that, they moved on to the "Bola on Over" stage, which was basically throwing an Incan weapon so that it wrapped around a designated target. In this they played as a team as well, same teams and, the twist was, if they missed, they'd each have to take a shot of fermented llama's milk. 
There was another twist though, because Jordan and Camila were the winners of the last round, they could give another 'bola' to another team, and they chose CT and Tori.
Once again, Jordan and Camila 'won' and this just made me really confident about my predictions. I was really confident throughout the whole episode though so, I have high hopes for next week.
Moving on, was a puzzle challenge! This time, they switched teams and, because Camila and Jordan were on the lead, both of them chose another team mate and the remaining two had to pair up so, Camila chose CT and Jordan chose Tori, which left Cara Maria still with Derrick, which was really unlucky to her because they both are terrible at puzzles. Still, they had few running to do and this last two (Cara Maria and Derrick) actually were able to be in the lead but, unfortunatelly, the last ones to arrive at the puzzle, CT and Camila, were the first ones to finish the puzzle and Cara Maria and Derrick were the last ones to finish it.
Well, because this is Dirty 30, the last challenge had to include more dirty moves, and after that last round, they had a double cross. Tori actually got it by default, giving her time penalty to Camila (obviously) and, for the guys, CT got it right away and gave his penalty to Jordan. I was a little surprised by this because Jordan have been pretty lucky with the double crosses so I thought he would get it but it was nice to switch things up.
After that, they had more running to do and then a vertical climb which was really difficult for Camila. I really felt for her because I would freak out as well if I was in her place so, I didn't like Tori's attitude towards it at all! It's not fun to have a panick attack! Even if you're competing for a million dollars.
And then, to make it even worse, the next challenge, which was to break into a smoke-filled house and make sense of a series of letters and was a pairs challenge as well, Camila got paired with Derrick and Derrick just did nothing in that challenge. I mean, I don't blame him, if I was in his place, with Camila really angry, I would just let her do her thing (because she was working just fine). But, at the same time, I can see her point, mainly because Derrick have been rubish in this last challenges. If it isn't physical stuff, Derrick isn't that good, I just realised that.
But, because all of this wasn't enough, when it was time to 'sleep', they threw another 'penalty' thing, but this time was about the sleeping. The first ones, Jordan and Tori, had to pick a guy and a girl to not sleep in the tent but, instead, sleep outside, in the rocks and in the cold. Of course Tori picked Camila and Jordan picked Derrick. Just what they needed.
Also, I was a little underwhelmed with this 'punishment' because usually they do an overnight challenge, which I loved, and this time they didn't so... I was a little sad about that. But I kind of get it, this challenge have been harder then previous ones so, they needed rest anyway.
The next day came with the last and most exciting challenge! They had to ride a truck that would tow them each across a salt flat. It looked pretty cool and I wouldn't mind do it myself! Actually, I would really like to do it!
After that, came the big reveal that I've already talked in the beginning, which was pretty schocking to me! 
So, let me know what you thought of this ending, what do you think is going to happen in the last episode? Do you think the winner is still going to be determined by their times or do you think there's still more dirty moves? And who do you think is going to win? You know were I stand, I still think Jordan and Camila are going to win so, let's see.
I'm not going to be able to rant about AHS and The Flash today so I'll see you tomorrow with those rants!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 16 - "The Sinister Six"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone and welcome to the second to last The Challenge rant this season (at least, that's what I think)!
Actually, I read somewhere that this week's episode was going to be the season finale. I had some doubts, because I didn't think they could put an whole final plus the final 'elimination' all in just one episode but you never know! I guess I was right in the end because this wasn't the last episode this season and I truly believe the next one is so, let's see.
Anyway, this was a pretty good episode, although I wasn't really surprised by anything.
We had the last 'elimination' like I said and, from the previews, it was pretty clear that Camila was going to be the one to move to the final and then, for the guys, my bets were on Derrick, to be honest, but last night I saw a tweet from Camila saying Congrats to Derrick so I already knew he was going to be the one going into the final so, no surprises there. They didn't even give too much screen time in that elimination, to be honest.
Who had a lot of screen time was Jordan, and we later found out why. But we need to talk about other things first.
So TJ basically 'told' them what the final was going to be like and all that stuff. Of course he didn't say exactly all the things they had to do but he said that it was going to be hard both physically and mentally and then he talked a little bit more about the prizes.
He also said that they were going to Argentina for the final but that he wasn't going with them, because he has already been there setting up all the things they had to do.
Then, they fly to Argentina, we see them chilling and all that and that's when they get a video from TJ saying what was the first thing they were going to do - Skydiving! Everyone was pumped, apart from Cara. Cara Maria was terrified and she was even thinking about not doing it. But, the next day, when they had actually to do it, she did it and everthing went well, for her. This is when we 'find out why' Jordan had so much screen time. He was the only one so pumped and he was the only one who had like a pretty bad landing from the skydiving. He even though he had a broken knee. I don't know if that was really the case, because he was walking and all so, it wasn't that bad, but he was injured. He decided to keep going anyway and that's when we see first leg of the final.
As I'm always saying, I'm not really good at explaning the challenged but they basically had to carry some rocks up and down a mountain. The first thing was individual and then they had to pair up for the 'second part'. It was made in the order they arrived at the 'first station' so Derrick was paired with Cara Maria, Jordan with Camila and CT with Tori. I thought it was a little bit ironic because I always said (and I still stan by that) that Camila and Jordan are the ones that are going to win so, I just thought it was a little bit funny. Anyway, they were all pretty tied, mostly Camila/Jordan and Derrick/Cara Maria, and we didn't really see the end of this first leg but I bet Camila and Jordan are going to be the first ones to end it.
I have no idea what's coming next but I guess we'll find out next week.
So, it's time to make your bets guys, who do you think is going to win this season? I've been saying all along and I'll say it one more time - Camila and Jordan are going to be the winners.
Ok, I guess that's all. I'll see you in my next rant (which I don't know if it's going to be today or tomorrow, we'll see).
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 15 - "A Million More Reasons"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!
First of all I want to say that this is going to be the only rant up today. There's just what I can do for today, but hopefully tomorrow I'll post all the other rants (such as AHS and The Flash).
Now, onto the actual The Challenge episode.
Just like I predicted last week, this was a bit of a bittersweet episode for me. Also, like I thought, this episode was the final redemption house challenge and you know what that would mean - the possibility of Bananas not coming back. The only thing that got my hopes up was when TJ said that there was going to be two guy winners because there was less guys than girls, so I thought that Bananas and Jordan were the ones to win. I was half right. Yeah, Jordan was the one to win, which makes me even more 'sure' that my prediction is right and you know for how long I've been saying that! I've been saying that since basically episode 5 or something so... That's a long time.
Anyway, the other guy to win was CT and the girl was Cara Maria, which was pretty obvious in my opinion.
After that challenge, everyone else went home (of course) and then there was just a lot of tension because of everything between Cara Maria and Kailah. They kind of worked things out but I don't know.
We moved on to another challenge, which I was a little surprised to be honest, I didn't know if they were going to show another challenge or not, but they did and TJ dropped the bomb - he told them that they are playing for a Million Dollars! Everyone got their minds blown but that was not just it. This next challenge that they played was the last one before the finale, which meant two guys and two girls were going to the final right away. They teamed up in guy/girl pairs - Tony with Jenna, Cara Maria with CT, Camila with Derrick, Jordan with Tori and, surprisingly, Kailah with Hunter (who, by the way, decided to stay in the game although he has a broken arm or something).
The challenge had different stages and the very last one was an individual one. Of course I was rooting for Camila but I was also rooting for Jenna and, at the same time, I also kind of wanted Jordan to win. Once again, I just got half right.
Yeah, once again, Jordan did win, alongside CT, Cara Maria and Tori, which supports my theory but it wasn't exactly what I wanted.
The good thing is that the 'losers' are going to have another chance and one guy and one girl are going to join the others at the final so, I hope it's Camila and Derrick, to be honest.
The episode ended like that and, as you can see, we are very close to the end. I think there's only going to be two more episodes and I stick to my prediction that Jordan and Camila are going to win.
I think that's pretty much it for today's rant.
I know it's not much but it's pretty late and I'm kinda tired.
Let me know all your thoughts in the comments and I'll see you tomorrow with brand new rants!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 14 - "Pretty Little Backstabbers"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello!
Here it is a brand new The Challenge rant!
This is going to be only one you guys are going to get today because, just like lately, I had a pretty busy day and I only got time to watch one series and I chose The Challenge, hope you don't mind.
Anyway, let's jump right into the rant!
This wasn't one of my favourite episodes. I feel like it had less stuff and I also feel like it was a little rushed. I understand, and it is basically pretty clear the fact that they are trying to send as many people as they can to the Redemption House so they can do another Redemption House challenge and just finish with this season, but I just feel like this episode didn't have much, and it was a pretty big downside for me. Plus, it didn't end that well (for me) so yeah, you can see why I didn't like this episode as much. But, one thing that I did like was the fact that it was just like the old episodes, with a challenge, nominations and elimination (with a little bit of drama in the middle), which is exactly what I like.
So, like I said, the episode started with this week's challenge - one that looked a lot more exciting that it was in fact. And, once again, it was pretty quick and a little bit confusing.
Basically they had two rounds of each gender (guys and girls) where they were on the endge of a really tall building and they had to 'knock out' one of the other players (as usual, I'm not the best at explaining challenges). What matters is that in the end, the winners (one guy and one girl) would pick not only another guy and another girl to go to elimination but also another guy and girl to send right into the Redemption House (like said, trying to get rid of as many players as they can in the shortest time). In the end, Hunter and Jenna won and they sent right into the Redemption House Jordan and Veronica, which kind of ruins my predictions that Jordan is going to win but, you really never know. I doubt anyone will beat CT but Tony sent Darrell home so, you don't know what can happen so, I'm going to keep my predition that Jordan is going to win. Plus, they had a talk where he said he would rather run a final with Camila then with Cara Maria so, is that a hint that both of them are going to win?! Who knows?!
Then, for the nominations, of course they wouldn't want a tie so they both sent in Camila and Derrick, which I was already expecting so, it wasn't anything new.
But the double cross, damn it was my worst nightmare! (Ok, I'm being a little overdramatic, but yeah).
For the girls, Tori got the double cross so it was obvious that she was going to pick Britini, which I really don't mind to be honest, it was an easy win for Camila. The boys was a lot different! First, they were only two which meant they didn't really have a choice, they either get the double cross and are safe or not and are going to elimination. Bananas was the first one and I just knew that the one he was going to pick wasn't the double cross one and... I was right. Tony got pretty lucky and Bananas went to elimination against Derrick - two really good competitors.
Well, like I said, the elimination, for Camila was really easy and she won, which I was already expecting. Then, for the boys, it was a good match (like I was also expecting) and, for a moment, Bananas was in the lead and I was really hoping he would win but he just had a 'breakdown' and, in the end, Derrick won, which I liked but at the same this just messes up my mind because, on one hand, I'm always going to have Bananas back and I really want him to win but, at the same time, I want my prediction that Jordan will win to be true so I don't know who I really want to win the Redemption House challenge. Really, I'm so confused.
Anyway, this episode was basically this.
I didn't see a preview, but something tells me that the next episode is going to be the Redemption House challenge and from there is only going to be the main house and whoever goes home, goes home for real.
I still maintain my prediction that Jordan is going to win (although I'll be rooting for Bananas in that challenge) but I also have doubts that any of them will beat CT so... Also, I saw on Wikipedia that CT wins this season so... I'm pretty confused. Oh, and there was just an announcement about the next season - Champs vs Stars - and Jenna is in the promo photo so... I don't know... Is this a hint that she wins this season?! I'm getting really confused...
Let me know all your thoughts and predictions and I'll see you tomorrow with brand new rants!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 13 - "Feel The Burn"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!
I'm sorry I'm a little late with this update but I'm afraid it's going to be like that throughout this week.
I'm going to be really busy this week so updates will be less and not really on time. Though, I really needed to watch this episode and talk to you about it because the last one just ended on a huge cliffhanger.
In this episode we find out, right in the beginning the events after that huge cliffhanger - who was going straight to the redemption house.
You know my bets were on Bananas and Cara Maria and I was half right. Yes, Cara Maria ended up being the chosen one to go to the redemption house but, luckily, Bananas was not chosen and CT was the one going straight to the redemption house instead, which basically messed up all my next predictions.
After that, we see the winning group meet again to talk about who they were going to send in to elimination. Right away Kailah says that she's not going to send in Camila because Jenna is in the double cross and if Camila is the one in the elimination, there's a huge chance that Camila beats Jenna (if she gets sent in) so, right away, Camila is off. Obviously Jenna is off too and then Veronica doesn't want to send in Jemmye either so... They're in an impasse. And basically the same about the guys because Kailah and Jordan want to send in Hunter, Britini says there's no way she's going to send Hunter, as well as Tony, and Veronica doesn't want to send in Derrick and, needless to say none of them want to send in Leroy so, no agreement.
The next day, TJ comes and it's time to make a decision.
Starting with the girls, Veronica basically gives up and says Jemmye and basically all of them (apart from Britini) say Jemmye also so, she's the one going to elimination and now it's when my other prediction is half right, again.
I said that they were going to tie because of the guys, which is what happened but not between CT and Hunter... Instead, it was between Leroy and Hunter! That was seriously an huge plot twist because no one thought Leroy was going to be mention. It first start with Britini, which was the second one to vote and said it was a burn vote but it turned out not being because then Veronica voted for Leroy as well, and that's when the tie happened (because Tony voted for Derrick).
Then, TJ told them about what was going to happen if they didn't make a decision and, after that, Tony decided to change his vote to Leroy (because he didn't want to vote for Hunter) and, in the end, Veronica stuck to her vote, and sais Leroy, resulting in him going to elimination, which was an huge plot twist.
When it came to the double cross, it was Hunter, Derrick and Bananas and I was just praying for Hunter to not get the double cross, and luckily, it didn't. Derrick got it and he sent in Hunter, which was kind of obvious and, once again, Bananas got lucky and my boo is still in the game!
I didn't get that lucky with the girls thought. I mean, it was Tori, Camila and Jenna, and Jenna got the double cross, which was kind of good but this time Jenna decided to make a bold move and sent in Camila.
As you can imagine, Camila got very salty and you can be sure there's no friendship there anymore.
Anyway, with the actual challenge, the guys round was really nervewrecking and a good match but, unfortunatelly, Hunter won and Leroy went to the Redemption House.
For the girls, as I imagined, Camila won, which was happy about. Althought she hasn't been her best in this season, I can't not support her and I still think she's going to win this season so... Besides, she's a Braziliana and she was so pissed so, it was clear that she was going to win.
And, from now on, you can be sure that she's going to be really badass because she's pissed at everybody and Cara Maria isn't there so...
To finish, this time I don't have many predictions for next episode. This episode didn't have an huge cliffhanger and the preview didn't give us much. I think the next challenge is going to be a cool one, we got a little clip with Bananas so I'm curious and there's going to be a fight between Tori and Camila so, let's see what happens.
Let me know your thoughts on this episode, were you surprised that Leroy was sent in? What did you think about Camila's reaction? Let me know everything and I'll see you in my next rant!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 12 - "Boxed In"


Spoiler Alert!

Wow, so this was an hell of an episode!
Hello guys and welcome back to a brand new The Challenge rant!
I gotta say, I was pretty excited for this episode but I would never thought what happned would happen. Not much drama happened in it, which I quite like, so the twists were all about the actual game and I'm seriously so stoked about it. I have a lot of predictions so read until the end to find out.
So, we start the episode with finding out who the winners of last challenge were going to pick for the elimination and I've already seen a preview on MTV's youtube channel that CT and Camila were going to pick Dario and Hunter, of course, was going to pick Jordan, but we didn't know who Kailah was going to pick but, to be honest, it was quite obvious - she ended up picking Dario.
As for the girls, both Camila and Kailah chose Veronica, Hunter voted on Jemmye as a 'burn vote' but CT also voted in Veronica so, Dario and Veronica for elimination and everyone else for the draw (apart from the winners, of course).
It was quite overwhelming, to be honest, to see like the whole cast on the draw, but it was even more overwhelming for the guys, since all of them are players that I quite like and since all of them are in an alliance so, I was really afraid who was going to vote and in who he was going to vote. But, pretty soon it was obvious that, whoever got the double cross, was going to vote for Tony and so it was. Actually, Jordan got pretty lucky (or not, depends on where you stand) and got the double cross again and yeah, he voted Tony in, against Dario. For the girls, Tori got the double cross and, of course, she sent in Aneesa, against Veronica, which I was happy about.
The challenge was pretty simple and as soon as we find out what it really is I knew that Tony was going to win, which he did, and I was really happy about that and then I thought Veronica had better chances against Aneesa, but I wasn't sure of anything. Still, I was right and she did win against Aneesa, which I was also happy about because, although I don't really like Veronica, I don't like Aneesa at all so I was really happy about that. The only downfall though was the fact that yes, they're going to the redemption house, which means they might still come back.
After that, I was really afraid they were going to put a lot of drama in the episode just to get to the 45 minutes but, luckily, we got to see another challenge and I was super stoked about it! And then, comes the biggest twist - the winner team of this challenge not only was going to pick a guy and a girl to send to the elimination but also choose a guy and a girl straight to the redemption house! Like, what?! That was a major plot twist, mainly because the 'underdogs' are getting 'mad' and are thinking about sending home the big dogs so, obviously I was worried about Bananas.
Anyway, about the challenge. 
It wasn't that hard... It involved a puzzel but the first part of the challenge, althought it wasn't that bad, I wouldn't be able to do it. They basically had to stratch a wall to find out some numbers and stratching (mainly walls) are one of my biggest pet peeves. I mean, I don't even know if I can call it a pet peeve, I just know I can't stand it, it makes me so uncomfortable and I just can't.
So, as I said, it was a team challenge and the Teams were basically this: Blue Team - Jenna, Hunter, Bananas, Cara Maria and Jemmye; Green Team - Jordan, Tony, Kailah, Veronica and Britini; Pink Team - Leeroy, CT, Tori, Camila and Derrick.
Well, as you can probably tell, I was rooting for the Blue Team, althought I thought the Pink Team was really strong too but, was you can imagine, the Green Team won - the 'underdogs' won, which is not good.
Neither I have to say that we don't find out who they are going to send to the Redemption House, and here's when my preditions come in place!
As for the guys, I'm almost 100% sure they are going to send Bananas to the Redemption House. 1. Because Jordan said he wanted to take out the big dogs now and 2. because Tony felt betrayed by his 'alliance' and, since he can't really send Jordan to the Redemption House, I think he's going to agree in sending Bananas there.
For the girls, I'm torn between Camila and Cara Maria, but I would bet on Cara Maria because on the little reunion that we saw, they were talking about who was most likely to loose the elimination so they are going to choose to send to the Redemption House the girl that is more likely to win the elimination and get back to the house, which is Cara Maria, and like that get rid of her more easily.
Then, we see in the preview that they basically don't agree on who to send into elimination, and the result of that is the winners go in for draw. So now, my confusion is on who they are going to be torn about. I doubt it is the girls, they are all probably going to send in Camila. So it is almost 100% sure on the guys and, with that in mind, I think both Jordan and Kailah are going to send it Hunter, Veronica and Britini are going to send in CT and most likely Tony is the one that doesn't pick any of those. Still, I'm pretty confused about that because I just don't see why they won't agree on this, neither of them seem to have problems in sending in anyone so, I don't know.
Let me know what you think is going to happen. Do you agree with my predictions? I would love to know all your thoughts.
Ok, that's it guys.
I'll see you later with a new AHS rant!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 11 - "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new The Challenge rant!
Is it just me, or it feels like a long time since we've seen an actual challenge?!
I don't know, I feel like in the past episodes we got caught on so much drama, with the thing between Tony and Camila, and the thing with Tony and his girlfriend and what happened with Camila and Leroy... I don't know, I just feel like lately the show have been focusing a lot on the drama that it was pretty good to finally have an actual challenge and have it focused on it instead.
I mean, sure we had a lot of drama in this episode like, a lot, but it was nice to have a proper challenge. I also thought we were going to have a 'normal' episode but I guess that was too good.
Anyway, the episode started out with a rather awkward conversation from the girls, which I didn't really understand why they focused on that. Maybe it was because of Jenna because that's the only thing that ties with the rest of the episode but yeah...
Like I've mentioned before, I pay a lot of attention to the people they focus on in the beginning of the episode, before the actual challenge, because that means that either they win the challenge (or do really good in it) or they loose and are probably going into elimination.
This time they focused, like I said, on Jenna, but also on Derrick, Hunter and Dario and, well, I didn't really want to brag but all of them were relevant in the challenge.
The challenge in this episode was pretty good! We had four teams of four, which meant a guy and a girl were out of the challenge and into the draw, and here's when Dario is relevant - he's the one not picked by anyone and going straight into the draw.
Moving on, we have the teams, which first we have Hunter and Aneesa as captains for two teams. They both choose other two captains for the other two teams - Britini and Nelson. The teams then went out like this: Pink Team (my team) - Aneesa, Derrick, Jenna and Bananas; Light Blue Team - Leeroy, Nelson, Cara Maria and Jemmye; Dark Blue Team - Camila, CT, Hunter and Kailah; Green Team - Britini, Jordan, Tori and Tony.
And here's when Hunter is relevant. His team actually wins the challenge, which I kind of didn't mind because it has Camila, but I need to mention that I'm really proud of Jenna (and Derrick too, but mostly Jenna) because she was the only girl to get through the challenge and she's so underrated! People have started to be more aware of her, but still, most people think that it's just looks but she's actually pretty good in challenges and she's not that dumb so, I'm really proud of her and I hope she gets into the final.
Then, after the challenge, as usual, that's when things go downhill.
Everyone go out and that's when they get drunk and when they start arguing. First it's between Hunter and Kailah (which is just dumb) but then the real thing happens between Derrick and Nelson (which is also pretty dumb but well). And this was pretty damn serious because Nelson actually punched Derrick in the face and well, we've kind of already seen this in the preview last week and I, right away, said to my sister that he was going to be disqualified and... That was exactly what happened! And that was how the episode ended.
Now, we don't know who CT, Hunter, Camila and Kailah are going to pick for elimination because, although Hunter is going to vote for Jordan, CT was planning on voting for Nelson and now that he's gone... Well, let's see who they are voting for.
And that's pretty much it for today's The Challenge rant. The only other thing that I'm going to say is that my gut still tells me that Jordan and Camila are going to win. I don't know, but that's just my feeling.
Let me know what you guys thought about the episode and your predictions for future episodes and I'll see you later with a new American Horror Story rant.
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 10 - "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone, and welcome to a brand new The Challenge rant.
Wow, where should I start?
This episode had a lot to talk about. Not necessariy about actual challenges, but just the episode in general. We had a lot of drama (tiny ones, but a bunch of them) in this week's episode and plus we had another Redemption House Challenge, like it was shown on the preview last week.
So, I guess I should start with the whole Tony/Camila drama, again. 
I thought this was already behind but I guess with all the Camila/Leroy drama, they had to move this other drama to this week (and possibly next week, since we didn't really have a conclusion).
Well, talking about Tony, we also had another minor 'drama' between him and Bananas, but it was just really silly and it ended in minutes.
Moving on, I guess we should focus on the Redemption House now, since the episode was mainly focused on it.
We basically already knew that they were going to have another challenge to see who was going to get back into the main house but, before, like the previous time, TJ went to the house so they would talk about the people they were going for if they get back to the 'actual' gam and basically all the girls were going to either Camila or Cara Maria and Hunter was going for Jordan (obviously) and Cory for Bananas (also obviously). And I have a serious prediction about who's going to the final and who's going to win, which is basically all the people they mentioned.
First, I've heard some rumors that Camila is actually going to win this season of the challenge, but that's for the girls. As for the guys, I haven't heard anything, but from the looks of it, I predict that Jordan is going to win! You've heard it here first, folks! This isn't 100% true or anything like it, but it's just my gut telling me. Since the whole thing with Jemmye that Jordan have been talked a lot, and the fact that he said in an after show that he's not going to compete anymore makes me believe that he's actually going to win. And I'm surprisingly ok with that. Of course I would love if Bananas would be to win again (I still think he's going to the final though) but I've been liking Jordan a lot more than I used to be and I actually believe he deserves to win. He had never won so I believe this is his time.
Anyway, not getting into the actual Redemption House Challenge. It was so gross! 
I don't care what anyone would say but I would totally be like Marie, so I can't even blame her for basically not doing it. Well, at least she tried?! I don't even think I would try so... (I know I would suck at the challenge anyway).
Well, what matters is that Hunter got to win in the end and, as for the girls, Aneesa won, which I really didn't like. All the girls that were in the Redemption House were annoying af so I wouldn't want any of them back but Aneesa is just not only annoying but she can actually beat some of the girls in the house so I really didn't want her back.
And yeah, that was pretty much it for this week's episode.
We then see in the preview for next week that there's going to be a fight between Derrick and Nelson and that Hunter is crying saying that he wants to go home so, i don't know what's going to happen, but it looks exciting to me.
Ok, that's it! Let me know all your thoughts on the episode, what do you think about my predictions for the finale and I'll see you later with a new American Horror Story rant!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 9 - "Rampage"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello guys and welcome back to a new The Challenge rant!
Wow, where should I start?
This episode had a lot to deal with and a lot for us to talk about. Not necessarily about the game but about the drama that happened right in the beginning of the episode.
We all know what happened in the end of last weeks episode, between Tony and Camila and my thought was that a lot more stuff was going to happen between those two in this episode. Well, I was wrong. Everything that happen was mainly with Camila and a little bit with Leroy. I mean, Camila messed up with Leroy, althought he didn't really react, which I think was a really good thing from and I'm really impressed because, like CT said, not a lot of people would stay calm like he did and this showed a lot of (good) character from him, unlike Camila.
This really pains me to say because you know that Camila is my girl and I really like her so, you know, I'm going to defend her no matter what but yeah, what she did wasn't cool and I'm actually surprised that they didn't send her home. I'm glad they didn't thought, but still surprised.
Also, I think people take too seriously what others say when they're drunk, mostly in this game and I get that they are all under a lot of stress and everything but seriously, you shouldn't take a drunk person seriously because most of the time they don't realise what they're saying and they don't even remember it, like it happened with Camila.
Still, what she said wasn't cool and wasn't right, but I seriously believe that she didn't meant it and that she's sorry, even thought she didn't actually say it.
Anyway, most of the episode was focused on that but we still had nominations and elimination.
It was only Tony and Camila to nominate so both nominated Nicole and Nelson, which was cool for me.
Then, when it came to the double cross, my faves got it, Jordan and Jena, which meant they were going to make the right choice and send it someone that most people (including me) don't like - Hunter and Britini.
The challenge was somewhat similar to that one, year ago, between CT and Bananas and, for the girls round, it was pretty easy, Britini won which, out of the two, she was the one that I prefered, so I liked it.
For the guys it was a whole another story. It looked like really painful and it must have lasted like hours but, in the end, Nelson won, which I didn't really like but still, either one of them was going to the Redemption House and was probably come back anyway so, either it's 'cool'.
And then, I need to talk about my favourite part, which was when CT said that he believed there was still a Redemption House and Oh My God, how did he know?! I swear, that was so funny for me.
Anyway, that was pretty much it for this week's The Challenge rant.
Next I'll post American Horror Story episode 2 rant so, stay tuned for that!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 8 - "Dirty Little Secret"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!
So, like I promised, here I am with a new The Challenge rant!
I got to say that this was a different episode for me. Althought it didn't have much challenges or anything, I really enjoyed it! I think it was mainly because it was Trivia Episode! That's right, it was the trivia episode and I love those episodes, so that might be the main reason why I really liked this episode, but I also liked the drama and everything in it. There wasn't major drama, just by the end of the episode, but let's start with the beginning, shall we?
Last episode we didn't know who won the guys round of the elimination, so we started right of with that, and guess what? I was right. Hunter ended up winning, but it was pretty close! I even thought Cory won, but then we saw the images again and it was clear that Hunter won, which was nice, but we all knew that he was going to the Redemption House so...
Talking about the Redemption House... We saw a lot of it in this episode. I don't know if it is because we are getting closer to another Purge or not but, from the preview, it seemed like it. 
While in the Redemption House, we first see Marie really bored of being alone but after Cory and Aneesa arrive, we see a lot of flirtation between those two (Cory and Aneesa). Thank god Cory was able to keep it together, unlike Tony, which I'll get into it in a minute.
Anyway, let's move on to the challenge.
Like I said, Trivia Challenge, so it was going to be fun! 
This time there was a lot of rules to it, so let's see if I can tell you everything.
They were going to be above water (as usual), it was two rounds, a girls round and then a guys round and, not only they had to get the answer right but, if they did, they would give a cross to someone else. After three crosses, they were out. The first eight (four girls and four guys) to fall would go to the double cross and there was only going to be two winners, one guy and one girl.
Okay, that was pretty much it.
They focused a lot more on the girls, I don't know why because usually the boys are dumber but yeah. Right in the beginning Camila was panicking so that was a sign, to me, right away that she was probably going to win and guess what?! She won, which I was super happy about because not only she's my girl but also because Nicola has been saying a lot of sh*t about her so I'm glad she won and I just hope she send Nicole into elimination. 
For the guys, I suspected Tony was going to win, because of last week's preview and... Yeah, he did win, and that's when basically everything goes downhill.
As usual, after a challenge, and before the nominations, everyone goes out for drinks and that's when they mess up and game changes a lot. It was Cara Maria's birthday and obviously they all drank, including Tony and we all know how Tony is when he drinks.
On the way back to the house, Tony and Camila are in the very back of the bus and... yeah, they start making out and everything.
In the beginning, Camila starts talking about that they shouldn't and everything but, after they arrive, they don't leave the bus and we see them making out. And that's when the episode ends so, we don't know where this is going to end up.
Before I finish and move to what we see in the preview, I just need to mention and Bananas said about people in the back thinking that they're invisible, I mean... That was just so funny! I had to mention that.
Okay, onto predictions.
From what we see in the preview, Camilanator is going to make an apearance, there's going to be drama involving Bananas, which has been a while, looks like Kailah and Jenna are going to fight and it looks like not only there's going to be another Purge soon but also the challenges are going to get crazier and crazier so, I'm excited for the rest of the season!
In terms of who's Camila and Tony are going to pick... I don't know... I pay a lot of attention in the beginning of episodes to have some clues of who is going for elimination and this time the people mentioned the most where Britini (who is already on the double cross), Tony (who won), Tori (who is also in the double cross), Cara Maria and Dario (who is also on the double cross) so... My bet is that, because of what happened with Tony, Camila is going to pick Cara Maria and she's probably going against Britini. As for the guys my bet is that Dario is going in, as for who Tony is going to pick, I have no idea...
Anyway, let me know what do you think is going to happen and I'll see you next week!
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 7 - "Ankles Aweigh"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone and welcome to a new The Challenge rant!
This episode was a little bit nervewrecking for me because my favourite player (aka Bananas) was at risk (it ended up working fine in the end, but yeah) but, overall, I think this was a great episode! They ended it just like in the previous one (in the middle of the elimination) but I liked what they did with it, starting right at the beginning.
We start right were it left off but instead of taking ages with the girls round, they did it really quickly, which was nice to have like a 'proper' episode, with a challenge, nominations and elimination. We don't reall see what happened to Ammo, but he posted something on his twitter account about what happened with him so, if you want to know more about check it out.
In the girls round, Tori ends up winning, which was what I wanted and what I thought would happen but then, plot twist! We see Marie getting into the Redemption House! I thought we were done with the Redemption House, but I guess they will do it in phases. We also learn that Ammo is not coming back because of his health, which I understand. That means, only Marie will be in the house for a while.
Then we move on to the challenge!
I was quite excited about this challenge because it was going to be about the past seasons. The challenge was basically to put them in order, which is pretty difficult, I might say, since there 30 of them. But, before the challenge, and before they know what it is, they have to form teams of two girls and two guys, and its all up to them. Bananas comes up with a strategy that was quite good actually, to be paired up with someone that he wouldn't feel guilty to send into elimination if he was up for the double cross, so he chose to be with Hunter, Nicole and Kailah. 
They ended up loosing and being in the bottom two teams up for double cross, alongside with Jordan, Derrick, Jenna and Tori's team, which worked out in his favour, because there was no way Jordan and Derrick would vote him in so, as long as Hunter didn't get the double cross, Bananas was basically save.
The winning team ended up being Cara Maria, Camila, CT and Leroy.
When it came to nominations, it was unanimous, everyone voted Cory and Aneesa in.
The elimination, like I said previously, was cut in half, so we only saw the girls part this time. But, about the double cross. Also, like I said, Bananas got lucky because Jordan got the double cross and, obviously, he sent Hunter in against Cory. For the girls, it wasn't that good because Nicole got the double cross, so I was afraid for Jenna. Luckily Nicole chose Kailah, which I had a little bit faith in, mostly because Aneesa had some type of injury on her ankle so, I was confident about Kailah.
For the girls, like I wanted, Kailah ended up winning which is good but still, Aneesa is going to the Redemption House so... She might still be back and be really pissed off with everyone. 
For the buys, we're going to have to wait for the next episode which, by the look of the preview, is going to be pretty exciting as well. Not because of the challenges this time, but because of the drama. It looks like Camila and Tony are going to hook up or something, which is pretty weird and just wrong! First, because they were rivals on rivals III and then because Tony has a girlfriend and a daughter from that girlfriend so, this isn't going to be good. My prediction is that this is going to be like a strategy or something for the game. Nonetheless, this is going to create a lot of drama. But let's see what happens.
Let me know everything, all your predictions and I'll see you next week, not only with a new The Challenge rant but with the first rant from AHS' new season! 
Love,
Daniela.

The Challenge: Dirty 30 | XXX Episode 6 - "YAAAASS, Booty!"


Spoiler Alert!

Hello guys and Welcome back to a new The Challenge rant.
We are finally 'back to normal', with an episode starting with a challenge, having nominations and then an elimination (although the elimination didn't really end but yeah). Oh, and of course, a little bit of drama. And that's exactly with what the episode started.
Right in the beginning we see Tori and Marie joking around and having fun and, althought that isn't really drama (the drama is coming next), I already know The Challenge that well that I said right away to my sister - who was watching it with me - to keep an eye on those two because they one (or both) of them are going to be 'relevant' in the elimination. After that, comes the drama - Jordan pissed off about the fact that they don't clean up the kitchen and that there's a lot of food going to waste. Obviously the house gets kind of mad at him and really don't care but, to be honest, he was just being real, the kitchen was really a mess.
Moving on, we get into the actual challenge, and this was going to be on the beach, which means a difficult challenge.
The actual challenge is basically a race with a bunch of obstacles, the interesting thing about is the way they were going to play. GuyxGirl pair and, because Tony and Jenna won the redemption house elimination, they were going to be the ones to choose everyone's pairs, including themselves. At first, I thought they were going to choose to be paired with each other, but Jenna was smarter and she did what I would do - pick Bananas! Tony was also (kind of) smart and he chose Tori. The rest of the pairs were Camila and Leroy, CT and Cara Maria, Kailah and Jordan, Aneesa and Derrick, Jemmye and Ammo, etc... They then were split into two rounds and basically the first pair from each round was going to nominate and the last two pairs also from each round were automatically up for the double cross thing. 
Once again, right away I said that CT and Cara Maria were going to win and, guess what?! They did. The pairs to loose were Jemmy and Ammo, Aneesa and Derrick, Toni and Tori and Dario and Nicole. The other pair to win was Nelso and Veronica...
Then, because there's always drama before the nominations, Jordan kind of messed up while they were in the bus back to house from the nightclub. They were doing a 'rap battle' and he insulted Jemmy saying that she had a down syndrome face. If it was wrong? Totally. If it was necessary all that drama? Of course not. Plus, after they get into the house, Jordan realizes that he messed up and he tried to go to Jemmy to apologize and on the way, he 'encountered' Aneesa and slightly touched her so she would move out of the way and, as you can imagine, she got all pissed and saying that he pushed her and all that stuff, seriously, those girls take things too seriously. Also, why do they have the need to take other girls' pain?! Seriously, I wasn't a big fan of Jordan and I'm saying this so... Anyway, moving on...
On the nominations they all chose Marie and Jordan to go into elimination, and this is also something that kind of pisses me off like, why can't they just disagree? I mean, I get it that sometimes it isn't good for your game, like Veronica said, but if you don't agree and it doesn't matter for your game, just vote on whoever you want to vote, like Camila did! Just f*ck it! Seriously, it really pisses me off.
Ok... Then, on the actual elimination, Derrick pulled the double cross and he chose Ammo to go against Jordan. For the girls, Aneesa got the double cross and she chose Tori to go against Marie. We didn't see the girls round, but the guys round, damn, it was intense. I was partially rooting for both because I like Ammo but I also wanted Jordan to win just piss off those girls. In the end, Jordan won but Ammo gave an hell of a fight. He gave so much that the episode ends with him laying on the ground and they actually have to call for an ambulance. I feel bad for him...
In terms of predictions for next episode, I feel like Tori is going to win the girls round (and she also the one that I want to win) then, the next challenge looks pretty cool, like a trivia about all the challenge seasons so, I'm also looking forward to that and yeah, I just hope Bananas, Camila and Jenna win (or don't go into elimination) and that's pretty much it.
I hope you guys liked it and I'll see you next week with a new The Challenge rant.
Love,
Daniela.
