The Challenge | Season 40 Episode 06 & 07 - "My Real Friends Era" & "Trust in Your Era"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

First of all, I'm sorry I'm posting this so late and I actually missed last week's post so that's why this is a two in one (I almost did a three in one but I'm not sure when I'm going to watch the next episode so I'm just going to do it now).

These past two episodes were a ride! One, because I saw spoilers for both of them, and Two, because Era I is losing more and more members to the point that, right now, it's just Rachel and Derrick. Yes, I'm going straight to that - I'm sure all of you have seen the episodes already so I can just get to that. It was really hard for me to pick between Darrell and Kyland because you know I love Kyland and I truly think he might be the winner of this season, but after Tina loosing to Michele (and don't even get me started on that!) I was hoping for someone from Era I to stay. Well, that didn't happen. And worst, Michele stayed... Ugh! I was really hoping she would go home now... I'm so sick of her! She's not all of that, she's not the player she thinks she is and I'm actually started to get back to not liking Devin that much because of his relationship with Michele - it really is ruining him.

Anyway, now that I've talked about the big thing in the last episode, let's rewind a bit to episode 6 and well, if I'm being honest, I don't exactly remember much that happened in that episode. I only remember that Era IV won which was big because Jenny was on the line! I was super happy about that, unfortunately, she's a target once again for episode 8 and I'm really sick of that because we're on episode 8 and Kaycee hasn't been a target once! Oh, and Kaycee talking sh*t about Jenny in episode 6?! What the f*ck was that about?! Saying that she's not interesting and she only talks about her pets and food? Well, she's more interesting that Kaycee because most episodes I just forget that Kaycee is in the season... In terms of elimination, it ended up being Era I and Era III, so Rachel against Jonna and Cory against Brad and, this time, I was happy with the outcome! I'm always team Rachel and, as far as the guys go, I could do with either of them. I'm not particularly found of Brad but I could say the same for Cory so... It only hurt that Era I lost another player but, apart from that, Cory winning was fine.

As far as this episode goes (Episode 7), the highlights for me were definitely Tina - I can't believe I wasn't a fan of hers in All Stars and now I'm loving her. It's sad that she went home, even worst being sent home by Michele, but I have faith in Rachel and Derrick to take Era I to the final. As I said, since day one, my TOP to win were Horacio, Kyland and Derrick and two of those are still in the game so... Let's go Derrick and Rachel, I have faith in them! Also, Darrell finalling conquering his fear of heights! That was HUGE and I was so happy for him! And maybe that was the key for Era I to not get last place, which is also an achievement! 

Lastly, but certainly not least, we're getting a bit more heated with the target nominations - not everyone is self-nominating anymore and that is creating some chaos. Again, Cory was nominated over Devin, Bananas was p*ssed that once again Ryan wasn't nominated (but at least Derek was) and, the worst, Jenny was nominated again instead of Kaycee... Ugh! That is so annoying! I seriously hope some of these people align with eachother (the ones that are sort of on thei own) and turn on their team-mates, because it is really getting tiring (and I'm not even that big of a fan of Cory).

I have no idea how the next episode is going to go, I just have faith in Era I although we saw that Cory and Derrick will have a fight so... I'm scared of that but I'm looking forward to that.

Again, I'm sorry I took way too long with this review, I'm going to try to not do the same for the next episode (which is coming out tomorrow). I hope you still liked it and tell me what you think about this whole self-nominating situation and people not volunteering. I'll talk to you soon!

Love,

Daniela

The Challenge | Season 40 Episode 5 - "An Era Tradition"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

Isn't it weird that we took a break for one week?! I was very busy last week so I wasn't going to watch the episode on time, but then I found out that, because of the VMAs, we didn't get a new episode, which was good for me because now I can watch it right after airing and can discuss it with you all. Unfortunately, not only this wasn't the best episode when it comes to the outcome but also I came across some spoilers before watching the episode so I already knew who was going into elimination, which isn't ideal.

So, I'm going to try and get to the point.

From the preview last week we saw that something was about to go down with Era II - Laurel throwing the challenge so Emily would go into elimination. Well, it wasn't that obvious in the episode (mainly because they didn't loose) but she definitely did, and that got them second place therefore Emily not safe from elimination. Who got safe were Olivia and Kyland which I loved! What I didn't love though (and I know I'm getting everything mixed) was when that whole drama happened between Laurel and Cara Maria that Kyland sort of took Laurel's side. C'mon Kyland, I expect more from you! And speaking of Laurel and Cara Maria, this episode wasn't even about them and they became a big part of it. Personally, I'm so done with Laurel. I'm so glad that she's the target of Era II next week and, even though I don't want Bananas to go home, I really wish they would go straight into elimination.

But, rewinding a bit, Era IV won the daily challenge and honestly, that was so surprising! I was also surprised that Era I lost again and this time CT was on the line.

I'm not gonna lie, the spoiler that I saw was that Emily and Tina were going into elimination, therefore Nehemiah and CT were going as well and because my sister saw some other spoilers she let it slip that this wasn't the best episode and I understood right away that CT was going home - and he did.

Honestly, it was a pretty close elimination (as far as the guys go) so I can't really be mad at anyone in this situation. It's really sad that we won't have any more CT Pro Tips though...

Now, let's talk about the women's elimination because that one was shocking! Anyone would put their money on Emily knowing that she was going against Tina - no matter which challenge it would be. Well, Tina just went there and completely smashed that elimination and sent Emily home. Well, that's the easy version. The rumor that has been going around (again) is that the production sort of rigged it. How was it possible for her to completely smash those nails and take all of them basically at once when neither Emily nor either of the guys could do it?! And they tried! So something smells fishy here. I did want Emily to win just to piss Laurel off, but I've been enjoying having Tina around and poor Rachel couldn't be the only woman on Era I. Era I is dropping like flies and that doesn't look good for the future of the challenge. We always say that the OGs are the best ones but right now, it's not looking that great. I still have my money on either Derrick or Kyland to win the whole thing, and right now, Derrick is looking stronger, apart from what we saw in the preview for next week. 

We didn't get much from that preview but we saw what looks like a 'mini-final' type of challenge (with a lot of running and obstacles and whatnot) and it looks like Derrick got pretty injuried and they were mentioning a broken leg?! I don't know but I don't like it.

Anyway, at the end of the day, I just hope Derrick is fine and that Laurel goes home because I just can't take her bullsh*t anymore!

And I guess that's it from me for this episode. I'm sorry if this rant was a bit all over the place but I tried to cover all the main events in the episode (I didn't touch on all the hook ups yet, but I will in my next post). In the meantime, let me know what you thought of this episode - do you agree that the production did something to Tina's nails so she would win? Tell me everything in the comments and I'll talk to you next week!

Love,

Daniela.

The Challenge | Season 40 Episode 4 - "My Trivia Era"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

Back for another episode of The Challenge Season 40. Unfortunately, this wasn't as good of an episode. I mean, it didn't end that badly, but a few things p*ssed me off a little bit. And I guess I'll just start with that.

I already knew going into this episode that something was about to go down with Horacio. I've heard rumors that Horacio was going to retire from The Challenge partly because he wants to focus on his Football carreer and partly because he feels like his elimination was rigged. Well, when I've heard about this, I had no idea that he was going into elimination in this episode but after, while watching this episode, I figured this would be it. So, not only this episode wasn't that big of a surprise but also it was rigged. 

So, backtracking a little bit... I was actually super stoked for this episode because it was Trivia Day! And I love me some trivia. I don't necessarily love when it's only about The Challenge, I like real trivia about the world, but that's fine. This one though was fully about The Challenge but it was played in a points format so it was interesting. I was a bit let down that Era IV finished last (having in mind that Kyland is on that Team, but I guess he's more well rounded on world stuff and not so much on Challenge stuff) and that meant that both Horacio and Jenny were going into elimination right away. And that's where my suspicions about him going home in this episode started.

Then the game went on for quite a while with both Era II and Era III being tied and having to fo into Sudden Death. Ultimately Era II won which meant Bananas was safe but also meant Laurel was safe, and I despise Laurel! I've always disliked Laurel but now I dislike her so much to the point that I'm becoming a fan of Cara Maria! Like, that's how much Laurel has been p*ssing me off in this past seasons.

Moving on to the 'deliberation', obviously I wanted Jordan and Nia to go into elimination because I don't necesarily like either of them and I quite like Derrick and Aneesa, and Johnny was all for sending Jordan into elimination but Laurel wasn't having none of it and Bananas didn't want to pull a Tony so he let Laurel decide so... Derrick and Aneesa it was.

(I honestly really wanted Bananas to say f*ck you to Laurel and send themselves into elimination against Horacio and Jenny, I was pretty confident that Bananas could win against Horacio, but knowing now what the elimination was, I'm not so sure)

This made things a lot more difficult for me in terms of who I was rooting for because, if you have been reading my posts, you know that both Horacio and Derrick were on my TOP 3 of who I thought could win (along with Kyland). But ultimately I was rooting for Jenny and I guess I was rooting for Horacio just because I didn't want the rumors to be true but... Guess what?! They were!

So the woman's elimination was pretty tight but Jenny ended up winning in the end, but the man one was even closer, to the point that when they finished, they didn't know who won. To me, it was clear that Horacio had won, but you already know what the outcome was. Derrick ended up winning and now I totally agree with Horacio saying that this elimination was rigged. It was clear that Horacio had won, and if they wanted us to believe otherwise they should have done a better editing job! Like it was totally visible that Horacio got all those things in place first and that Derrick had one missing in the corner like, what the hell?!

Anyway... I'm happy for Derrick because I also like him but this left a bitter taste in my mouth. And after seeing the preview for the next episode... It just made me really mad.

Oh, and I totally forgot to mention - again, they had to choose targets so the targets they chose were the following - Era I: CT and Tina (both volunteered); Era II: Emily (volunteered) and Nehemiah; Era III: Tori (Volunteered) and Devin; Era IV: Olivia (Volunteered) and Kyland. So my takeaway with this is that men are scared of CT (basically) and that all the woman are way more confident than the men. Also, this lineup isn't as strong as the previous one but it also doesn't have as many players that I like so I guess I'm hoping Era IV wins the challenge and that Era II and Era III go into elimination... I do like Emily and CT and Tina is funny (so that's why I don't want them to go into elimination) but the only one that I really like is Kyland so I hope he's safe.

And I guess that's it from me for this episode. An episode that wasn't had bad when it comes to its outcome but one that really made me bitter for what they did with Horacio.

Don't forget to let me know your opinion on this whole Horacio thing and I'll talk to you next week with a brand new episode.

Love,

Daniela

The Challenge | Season 40 Episode 3 - "A Fatal Era"

Spoiler Alert!

Hey everyone!

Another great episode of Season 40 of The Challenge! This one brought us a ton of those great moments and great things that we look foward to in an episode, starting with eating challenges and ending with a ton of plot twists.

So, I guess we did get a little bit of a introduction to the episode but I would say we jumped straight into the main challenge and the first thing the teams had to do was choose two captains (a male and a female) for each team. TJ didn't tell them what that entitled, not until the end of the challenge, so they had to make a blind choice. They almost went with the ones that won the last elimination but Aneesa wasn't having none of it and I didn't really see anyone else pushing forward with that idea so they just kind of did it randomly. So, for Era I we've got Jodi and Darrell as the captains, Era II we got Derek and Aviv, Era III Tony and Avery and Era IV Kaycee and Kyland.

This week's challenge was pretty exciting! Again, a challenge with multiple parts and that gave us a bit of everything - initally a bit of strenght and coordination with them rowing around the island, then they moved to a good old eating challenge and, this time, I was happy to see that they got vegan options for those that are vegan (as someone who doesn't eat meat, I've always wondered about that, so it's nice to see that they're thinking about that now) and lastly the third part of the challenge was sort of a memory game with them having to put all 40 seasons in order. 

For some reason, I had a feeling this was Era III's so win, and that's what happened. I was pretty happy because both Tony and Avery are some of my favourites, but then Era I got last place and even though Jodi isn't really someone that I root for, I do like Darrell. And then we had Kyland on Era IV that I also didn't want to see up for possible elimination, but all of this changed when we got to the 'Deliberation'.

I didn't really knew that well that Avery and Derek were really big friends (even before The Challenge) so that started a whole thing. Avery wanted to protect Derek but Tony wanted to make a deal with Kyland and Kaycee so they didn't get to a decision and you can guess where that led them, right?! It was up in the air for most of the episode but, at the end of the day, neither of them made a decision and so they went straight into elimination. Definitely not the best case scenario and, even though I love Tony, I have to be on Avery's side for this one. Avery is friends with Derek while Tony has no alliegance to anyone and any of those people. I love Kyland as well but he should've been the one going into elimination and now knowing what the elimination was, I was pretty certain he would've won.

Anyway, so it was Avery and Tony against Jodi and Darrell but, in reality, this was an individual elimination so it was just Avery against Jodi and Darrell against Tony, in a challenge that was pretty physical but it had a lot of thinking as well. And I guess it ended in the best way it could've. Darrell and Avery won! Again, I love Tony, but he was so dumb with his choice so he totally deserved to go home. It's not even a girl power thing (even though I'm all for girl power and Avery just making a point) but it's just dumb to think that she would go against her real life friend... Anyway... So Tony went home and, because karma is a b*tch, Avery won so... Yeah, I'm pretty happy with this outcome. But the excitement doesn't end here.

The episode ended with TJ throwing us another twist - the winners of the elimination pick targets from each team (two targets, a male and a female), and these targets will be the 'captains' for the next challenge which means we already know who's up for elimination overall. Darrell chose the females for each Era and Avery the males and, in the end, this was what they went with: Era I - Derrick and Aneesa; Era II - Laurel and Bananas; Era III - Jordan and Nia; Era IV - Horacio and Jenny. So, with this lineup, it will definietely be a great elimination regardless of who's winning and who's going straight into elimination. These are all really strong players and as far as the girls go, I would say Nia is the one with a bit more trouble but the guys! Damn! Derrick, Bananas, Jordan, Horacio, these are all such strong guys! I'm scared for Horacio, not gonna lie, mainly because all the others have the experience but maybe Era IV will win the main challenge and he will be safe. And speaking of main challenge, next episode is TRIVIA DAY! And I'm so excited about that! I love physical challenges but I always get so excited when it's Trivia Day so let's bring it!

Again, so far so good so let's keep this going! I'm loving this Season and my TOP 3 is still in the game so we'll see... Don't forget to let me know what you thought of this episode - Do you agree with what Tony did? Or are you on Avery's side? Tell me everything and I'll speak with you next week!

Love,

Daniela.

The Challenge | Season 40 Episode 2 - "The Era Invitational, Part 2"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

Back for another great episode of The Challenge Season 40!

I must say, they really are doing everything to make this season as iconic as possible - as they should! Not only the Era's theme is already so exciting but they had a great challenge last episode and in this unprecedented episode we had only eliminations. 1 hour full of the most iconic eliminations in Challenge history with some of the most iconic players! If this isn't a great start to a new season, I don't know what is.

So, they completely jump the whole debate thing and the decision and we get straight into the elimination. However, they did something that they have never done before again, they showed some 'flashbacks' from what happened after deliberation in between the eliminations, which was good to spice things up and made it for a not so boring episode (because, let's be honest, what we really want to see are the challenges and eliminations).

Let's go through Eras then... 

Era I ended up being Katie against Aneesa and Mark against Derrick, which was sort of predictable. It didn't keep Aneesa from being mad at Rachel though... And their elimination was Pole Wrestle - a good old iconic elimination. Oh yeah, I completely forgot to mention that this elimination was made out of the 4 most iconic eliminations from the challenge - one for each Era - so Balls In, Pole Wrestle, Hall Brawl and Take Shelter (the one that CT lost against Jay). This was a pretty exciting elimination because we thought it would be easy but oh boy, not really! Yes, Aneesa ended up winning, but Katie put up such a good fight that everyone, me included, were shocked! And the same goes for Mark and Derrick although, Derrick ended up winning which ultimately, was the one that I wanted to win! Honestly, as of now, my money is on three guys to win this whole season and Derrick is one of them. I would actually love for someone from Era I to win just to show that they might be old, but they're still the strongest ones.

Anyway, moving on to Era II, I would say this was the least exciting elimination game (just because it isn't as physical) but everyone played at the same time and there was a lot on the line so it was Cara Maria against KellyAnne and Ryan against Brandon. Obviously I was rooting for Ryan and Ryan ended up winning but, as for the girls, I was pretty torn. I don't necessarily love either of them and part of me was rooting for KellyAnne just because she's the underdog but I also didn't want Laurel to get her way so I wanted Cara to win...  Well, Cara did win at the end so... I guess that's fine. I don't like how Bananas is positioning himself in the game right now so I hope that changes but (spoilers for Era III) with Leroy gone and Tony slightly mad that Bananas was cheering for Leroy so much... I don't know if Bananas is allining himself with the people that I like, but we'll see.

I've mentioned Era III already so you know that Leroy ended up going against Tony and that Leroy lost. This was actually a pretty fair fight. They played Balls In and they have the same physic but Tony was just too strong and honestly, I was rooting for Tony the most. I just feel like his time last season (All Stars season) was cut short and he wasn't able to show what he's capable off and Leroy was supposed to win that All Stars season so... I really want Tony to go far this season. As for the girls, it was Amanda against Nia and it went as we thought it would, sort of. Amanda did manage to score a point but just because Nia wasn't paying attention. Then, Nia just ran over Amanda and she totally beat her. As she should (thank god Amanda is gone).

Lastly, but certainly not least, Era IV was the most epic I would say. Not for the best reasons though because Nurys went against Olivia on an Hall Brawl and lost but because Paulie went against Theo and Theo won! Theo won against Paulie! That was priceless! I'm sad that Nurys is gone though, I really thought she could go far but Horacio and Kyland are still in the game and those are my other two guys that I think can win this whole season. Right now, without knowing a lot, just based on skills (and who I like, let's be honest) I would say Derrick, Horacio or Kyland will win this season. And I'm totally fine with either of them.

But the elimination didn't end here. Everyone went back to the house apart from the ones that were eliminated and TJ introduced something new - the Karma vote. Basically the ones eliminated had to rank from 1 to 5 the remaining members of their respective Era and that will play a part in the future. What, I have no idea, but this makes things interesting. Also, we still don't know how the challenges will play from now on and how the eliminations will be because these were some different eliminations so there's still a lot to figure out. And from what we've seen in the preview those karma votes will switch things up in the game in the future (something tells me they will make new teams, but I hope I'm wrong, honestly). There's still so much to look forward to and I can't wait. I'm sad a lot of my favourite players went home but I still have a lot of people in the game that I like - Bananas, CT, Derrick, Devin, Horacio, Jenny, Kyland, Tony... so many! I'm excited!

So far this season is looking promising so tell me your thoughts on this eliminations only episode - were you surprised by any of the winners? did any of your favourites went home? Tell me everything in the comments and I'll talk to you next week with a brand new episode!

Love,

Daniela.

The Challenge | Season 40 Episode 1 - "The Era Invitational, Part 1"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello everyone!

OMG, it has been ages since I've posted! Do I even know how to do this?!

I planned on ranting about the newst All Stars season but I kept on missing episodes and when I watched them they had been out for a while so I just decided "well, this isn't the main show so I'll just skip it" but this is the main show so I had to comeback for this one. Plus, this is an highly anticipated season - every Era against each other - and I'm so stoked about that!

This post won't cover every single thing that happened in this episode because so much happened (and we didn't even get to an elimination) but I'm going to try my best.

We actually jumped right into everything! The truth is, we know these people, we don't need an introduction. And I'm actually super stoked that, for once, I have multiple people here that I love - Bananas of course, but also Tony, Rachel, Nurys, Mark, Leroy, Kyland, Horacio, Devin, Derrick, Darrell, CT and Jenny is back! So the chances of someone that I like wining is high. However, there's also a ton of people that I don't like and honestly, I don't know which Era I'm rooting for. I would say Era I has the higher number of people that I like but Era IV is a close second, even tho that's also the era that has the higher number of people that I don't like at all! And then there's Era II which is Bananas' era so... It's really a mix, but I'm rambling - let's get to the first challenge.

As I said, they jumped right into a challenge and a big one with high stakes - this challenge will lead to 8 eliminations, one man and one woman for each Era, to eliminate the weak links. That was exciting, and the first ones to finish this challenge - hence safe from elimination - were also pretty good - CT and Rachel for Era I, Cory and Tori for Era III, but unfortunately, even though both Bananas and Horacio won for their respective Eras, Michele and Laurel also won so... It's not all good. 

Then, straight into elimination were the ones that finished last - Mark and Katie for Era I, Ryan and KellyAnne for Era II, Leroy and Nia for Era III and Theo and Nurys for Era IV. This does make for an exciting elimination but it's not the best case scenario.

Everyone else that didn't win is up for elimination and it's the wining pairs that will choose and that's when the animotisies begin, starting off with Cara Maria and Laurel. I used to despise both of them and I wouldn't have cared about this, if it wasn't for last All Stars' season. What that last All Stars season did was make me more sympathetic towards Cara Maria and this whole thing with Laurel is just so annoying. Laurel has always been super annoying but this whole situation is even worst and it doesn't even make any sense for Laurel to  want to put Cara Maria into elimination because she's clearly the strongest female out of the three that are up for elimination - for some reason she was second after Laurel, before anyone else, even before Bananas (and you guys know I love Bananas). 

Someone else that keeps being super annoying is Michele, and her whole 'friendship' with Olivia...  Ugh! Both of them are so annoying and I'm living for the Perfect Trio - Nurys, Horacio and Kyland - love them! Unfortunately Nurys is going straight into elimination, I just hope she goes against Olivia and she wins because she's definitely one of the strongest females in the latest seasons.

Lastly, the third (of many) beefs that happened was the one between Paulie and Theo that honestely, I didn't even remember anymore. Still, Paulie keeps being annoying, I just don't have a big attachment to Theo so I'm not that involved in that drama. Personally I would've preferred Josh to be the one going into elimination against Theo (for sure he would've gone home) but with what we saw, I'm pretty sure Paulie will be the one going against Theo. As for the other Eras, Mark is going against Derrick because Derrick volunteered in order to save Darrell from going into elimination which was cute but kind of dumb at the same time, Katie is probably going against Aneesa, which is making Aneesa pretty angry, Ryan probably against Brandon, Nia will most likely go against Amanda (which I'm all for) and that only leaves KellyAnne and Leroy in the limbo. It looks like it will be Cara Maria and Tony but... I'm not too sure. I certainly don't want any of them to go into elimination so we'll see.

So far I would say this Season is living up to the hype. There's still so much to find out about this season - Will they play as a team? Will they keep going against eachother in the same team? How are the eliminations going to work after these initial ones? We still have a lot learn about this season and I'm excited about that so let's go!

Please, tell me your thoughts on this new season so far and who are you rooting for? I know there are a lot of good players so tell me like your TOP 5 or something. And which Era is your favourite? Tell me everything in the comments and I'll talk to you in a few days hopefully with some good news!

The Challenge | Season 39 Episode 19 & 20 & 21 - "Only One Gets The Crown" & "Reunion Part 1" & "Reunion Part 2"

Spoiler Alert!

Hello people!

I know. I'm extremely late with this post but the truth is, I couldn't find the Reunion episodes until last week and then I decided to watch all the episodes and talk about the three all together. Of course I can't really remember the actual final that well, but I'm going to try to cover as much as I can so, let's start with that.

The second part of the final, although really tight, it was also a little lackluster. I'm okay with Emanuel winning (the truth is, he did run this final and he was always ahead of everyone) but the real winner of this season as Nurys. Not only to us viewers but also to the Champs that attended the Reunion - at this point everyone sees Nurys as Champ and there's no denying that! And well, what else can I say about that final... Unlike most people, I actually liked the final. I thought it was fair for everyone and since this would be a one winner season, no female and male winners, having a lot of puzzles and 'equalizers' made this final fair for everyone, so I liked that. I also liked that they had a bit of everything and, most of all, they kept the eating/drinking challenges which are some of my favourites and I feel like they haven't done them as much in the previous seasons. And, besides that, the only thing that I remember is Corey's meltdown because of the rapel, which was so laughable.

As far as the Reunion goes, I actually think this was one of the most enjoyable and exciting Reunions to watch. Most of the time, the Reunion episodes are kind of boring and they don't say anything that interesting but here... Damn! They spilled so much tea! Besides, the whole thing with Nurys really made this Reunion so interesting! Nurys really was f*cked by her bestfriends and although I think Olivia kind of feels bad, I don't think Jay cares at all and both of them (Olivia and Jay) really disappointed me and I honestly don't like them anymore. I thought Olivia was better and Jay, even though I knew he could be a little sneaky, the second part of the Reunion really showed how a scumbag he is. At least Callum owned up to his mistakes and although I felt like those tears were fake, he said he did it, and the same goes for Emanuelle... While Jay just kept on denying it even after Olivia herself admited something happened between them. Seriously, Jay really disappointed me.

But to be honest, most of those on that stage are contestants that I don't like! The only ones that I'm going to keep rooting for are Kyland, Big T, Melissa, Zara and Nurys. Hell, I hope they keep bringing Melissa because she's so iconic and so much fun! And I hope they never invite Asaf again because he's a scumbag as well. A different kind of scumbag but maybe worst than Jay because, just like Darrell said, he's Pathetic and Corny and he's not even good at the game so... Yeah, don't ever invite him again.

Oh, and I completely forgot to mention the Champs! Well, not a lot happened with them but I liked all the takes that Devin had (he's always fun and he's one of those that really grew on me) and even Laurel was funny in this Reunion. And I really want to know what's this beaf between Cara Maria and Tori because something really happened there and they never really talked about it properly so... I just want to know!

And well, I guess that's basically it. I'm sure there were a lot of topics that I did not touch on so if you want to know my take on anything just hit me up on my social media (@danixinhahhh everywhere) and you can ask me my take on that particular topic.

That's for now for Season 39 but the new All Stars season is starting in a month so I'll back for that and Season 40 is going to start filming this week so... A lot of new episodes coming! Until then...

Love,

Daniela.
