I've got a great pitch for a new mtv reality show- All-Stars Big RW/RR Brother It would have 12 of our favorites locked up together in a house THAT THEY CANNOT LEAVE, with no communication with the outside world. They will be provided with plenty of booze and at least one bed per person. In the yard are a fully equipped wrestling ring and boxing platform for solving disagreements. They'll live in this house for 6 months and we vote on who wins at the end. I'd like to see them throw these people into it (and hopefully some will never walk out): Coral Julie Veronica Melissa Trishelle Katie Abe Donnell Puck Mike Adam Latterian

Wow - just saw last night's ep. That night has to be one of the ugliest displays I've seen in reality TV. On the whole, I'll say Road Rules was more ugly than Real World - but not by a lot. Let me single out a few... Abrahm. Wow. How ugly can you get. I honestly don't object that to RR wanting to throw the challange to get rid of Katie - she is a weak player. But to do it sooo cruely and to rub it in? That was just gross. The mocking calls about being afraid - Ick!! Then lying to Katie's face about throwing the comp and why he was wearing the red flag? What's up with that - why not just tell the truth? How would that hurt anything? Why lie. Ick! Veronica. Icky, icky, icky! Just for thinking up the scheme. For calling, unnecessarily, Katie the weakest player, etc. All of RR for rooting for Julie during the comp. Just plain mean, unnecessarily mean. So, on the Real World. Coral - whom I've defended many a time. What on earth was up with dissing Julie like that during the comp? Again, I wouldn't blame her for wanting Julie to go home, but to actively cheer and call out and to heckle? That is beyond poor sportsmanship!! Julie - I'm sorry, this woman is still icky. She claims to have some realization that she isn't being who she wants to be - yet continues to be that person. Did she go to Coral and apologize for trying to start the fight? No. Did she apologize to her team for causing so much drama they can't work together well? No. Then in the end - she says she forgives Real World??!!?? WT$%@&??? Except for Coral, I didn't see anything they needed forgivness for, and I saw TONS that she should apologize for. It's great that she prayed to god and tried to right herself, but she also needs to make ammends to real live human souls, not just god. She still gets a big ole ICK in my book. She's absolutely clueless about her own flaws and places the blame on everyone but herself. It takes two to tango, and Coral isn't that only one who needs 'forgiveness'. Ick! ICK! ICK!!!! I will give props to Mike for taking aside Coral and trying to get her to stop her heckling. Too bad Coral couldn't have shown some of the maturity she did when she refused to fight Julie. That woman is truly clueless.

Anyone know when there will be another RR? Unless I missed something, wasn't the last one the one that Abe & Christina came from. We've had 2 RWs since then. How can they keep having these challenge shows (which I am addicted to) unless they keep having RRs?

Katie.. well maybe this season she understands how Sarah felt that she helped send to the Gauntlet time after time.. and Sarah won every time, too.. Coral could be Leah's MOTHER and she would want Leah to go up next time the women are sent, because Coral doesn't want to be in the inferno herself.. I've read somewhere that RR may be discontinued.. not sure what that would do for the challenges, tho..

Coral has set herself up to be the only female RW player in the final challenge - do I detect a repeat? Coral doesn't "hook up" with the men, but IMO she only likes the men & plays the other females up as weak or slutty to make herself less vulnerable up until the $$ challenge. Coral bumped heads w/Julie just because Julie was onto her & Julie was neither weak or slutty. Coral plays to be there until the end & that is why she is always there at the end.

There's been a lot of scuttlebut about RR over at sucks. Basically they had some sort of liscensing problem. I have no idea what that actually means, but it delayed filming a new season for awhile. Anyways, they are supposed to start a new season soon - I believe it's supposed to be filmed in Patagonia. It sounds like another extreme challange type show.

OK, as far as Leah being sent to the Inferno - couldn't it happen that CT is once again the nominee and he wins the lifesaver and sends Leah? Though it is interesting how these Infernos tend to go - the other team always seems to pick the weaker man to go and the stronger woman.

If CT is chosen to go and wins the lifesaver then he can pick who goes in for him. Even if its the men's turn to go he can pick a woman.

I couldn't believe the behavior of both teams. I'm glad Katie won. I realize she is the weakest one on the team, but wow where is the team spirit? Coral is a master manipulator. She always lasts until the end, but is a big disappointment as a competitor.

ITA Ohiomobprincess Coral intimidates to the end and then never lives up to her mouth. Imagine thinking you can beat someone up because you have big boobs!!! What a BOOB!

Did any of you think it was funny last night when Ms Coral got so disgusted with Leah & Sylas when they couldn't do the rope/water challenge & finally told them to just DQ themselves instead letting so much time get on the clock. Then when she herself & Mike couldn't do any better than Leah & Sylas & seemed to have just as much struggle she blew it off as it's not stratagy on this mission but you can either do it or not & she couldn't do it - plain & simple. Well, all the folks on RR did it - plain & simple (I was very impressed with Katy). IMO Coral isn't any better of a player than Leah - Coral just makes excuses (that can't apply to anyone else) when she messes up.

Hmmmm..are the RWer's good at anything, other than staring in their very own dramafest. I was LOL @ Mike & Coral, guess big muscles do not equal strength huh Mike and it was great to see Coral humbled with the fact that she is equal to Leah! Whether or not she will admit it she is the weakest link on the RWer's team. Can't wait to see her lose it again for RW, the only way Coral can win a car is if it is a smoke off..puff puff pass Coral, stop bogarding!

Coral never said she could beat someone up because she has big boobs. She said just one of her boobs could take on Julie. I think that's the same as saying you could 'beat someone up with both hands tied behind your back'. That is - Coral thinks she's much tougher than Julie. Either way, Coral acted much more mature than Julie by not getting into the fight. Unfortunately, she lost all her 'mature' points in my book the following day when she heckled Julie at Julie's inferno appearance.

Yeah Coral wasn't so all powerful last night but that sure didn't stop her from dictating who was to go to the Inferno, even though it was a men's week..

I was never a fight it was a wrestling match. Julie just wanted everything over between Coral and her. So after the match was over so was the war, done, gone. I think Coral has a big mouth but is no fighter and THATS why she didn't go there, a lot of huffing and puffing but in the end nothing. Julie knew this, as she said, Coral would never accept. Her point was putting the cr@p behind them and start working as a team. Of course she said that if Coral took her up on it she'd probably lose but she didn't care she just wanted Coral's bickering about her over and done. Coral's like a dog with a bone, she doesn't let up and wears people down until they get booted or she gets booted. Again the team seems to believe her so usually the person she goes for gets booted. I would love to see how she would handle it if she was the one everyone turned on and she got booted. I have to say Coral would not be as good a loser as the others she's sent home. I do believe RW lost the strongest girl player in Julie. As far as RW's being good at anything.... They were never put together to do these strenuous activities like RR. I still think this RW/RR and the last RW/RR relied too much on the strenuous activities which give RR's the edge over RW. As you can see now and in the last show, RR's left RW in the dust each time which should prove my point. They need to have other forms of activities to level the playing field more.

Texasdeb, I agree. Coral is such a hypocrite! She was really dissing Leah and Syrus until it was her turn and she did even worse!! But of course when its her thats failing its just one of those things!! Won't anyone on the RW team ever realize that Coral is the biggest thorn in their team. She brings the spirit of the whole group down!!

I think that Coral's strongest muscles are in her mouth and I think that Julie could have given her a run for her money in a wrestling match. If Coral REALLY believed she could take Julie she would have done it. That being said I would rather have Coral around for the end because she is more interesting, but I think Leah definitely should have gone before Julie. I can't believe that Leah is not more embarrassed by her performance. If that were me I would be volunteering for the Inferno just to try to make it up to my team.

Thanks Puttergirl, you see the Coral Excuses too. CT is the king of that team (Hey - Miz, I thing you've been over thrown.) About time. I don't like Mike at all but understand why he gets invited to these challenge shows. Now we have CT & they can just let go of Mike! However; as much as I don't really like Coral, I WANT her on the next challenge show because she makes good TV.

I can't believe in the nice little TV clubhouse that you all are advocating violence. Guess what - a wrestling match is violence. As a matter of fact, you can kill someone in a wrestling match. This isn't highschool wrestling. These woman have no training. If they are p.o.'d at one another, it will lead to VIOLENCE, whether it's in the form of a fist or a head lock. Julie was attempting to manipulate Coral into commiting a violent act against her - which would get Coral booted off the show. If you can't see that, then you all have fallen to Julie's manipulations. I'm by no means saying Coral doesn't manipulate people, because she does. But so does Julie - BIG TIME.

i agree. julie was trying to get coral kicked off. she knows coral can not control her temper so she wanted to wrestle and then have coral hit her which is againist the rules. then coral would have been sent home. she even admits it to mike and ct. that is why ct was mad at julie.

And this is exactly why they keep bringing Coral or Julie back to these shows because it elicits such feelings that we all talk about them! They are no fools!

I totally disagree, Julie said herself that she never thought Coral would wrestle her. Of course she also said the guys were wrestling each other all the time to settle their differences. So why would it be ok for guys and not for girsl?

I wouldn't reccomend to anyone who's really pissed off at someone to 'settle' it by wrestling - be they male or female. I think most of the wrestling the guys were doing on the show was all in good fun, not anger. I think there's a huge difference in fighting in anger than wrestling in fun. (I mean 'fighting' by whatever method: by wrestling, using your fists, or what have you). Julie was motivated by manipulating Coral, not by any honest desire to 'settle' anything. She wanted to stir things up - and she did. She either wanted (a) Coral to get voted off for being violent or (b) make Coral look somehow wimpy for refusing to fight. Only the most immature individuals would fall for argument (b). Unfortunately, the RW/RR universe is FULL of immature people.
