i thought it was funny when coral said oh no rachel can't leave........i need her in the finals with me........LOL i know if i was there i would of picked up on that. she is a master at turning the table. when she was called out for having an alliance she didn't miss a beat. she just starting pointing her finger at the others. you'd think the news ones would get their act together. coral has been in most finals. she needs to go and get some loving from abe.

OMG, I just saw this week's BOTS - that was THE MOST DISGUSTING challenge ever! I was literally gagging and had to look away from the TV when they were showing them spitting into the straw. They have probably had things that were equally disgusting (like the meal worm challenge on The Gauntlet) but at least they did not film that one so graphically.

I did think it was funny when Coral said, "I *have* to get a real job." My thoughts exactly, Coral!

I saw a show called Tough Enough last night ... it is about young men trying out to become professional wrestlers. A couple of years ago they had a multi-episode Tough Enough which was really fun to watch (although the pain they inflict on each other made me cringe!). This seemed to be a one-shot show ... but the reason I mention it here is that Mike, the Miz, was one of the contestants, and he made it to the final five. ALL the other guys were HUGE ... much bigger than Mike ... but there he was, holding his own! You have to give him credit. (But hoo boy, am I glad my son didn't want to be a pro wrestler! What a way to make a living!)

As for BOTS, thank goodness Ruthie is still there..... they'd be lunatics to get rid of her!

I was watching Jay Leno last night, and he did a segment that sent these 2 women (that were previously on Jaywalking) to the "Tough Enough" try-outs. It was on some beach in California.

I swear I saw Mike - but it was at a distance. They never showed a close up of him.

I didn't know about him trying out, but when I just read it here, now I'm pretty convinced it was him!

If I can catch the repeat next week, I'll see if I can get a screen shot.

OK, I really fail to understand why someone like Aneesa would volunteer to be a leader along with Coral and Robin. Did she *want* to go home? What about some of these other women like Arissa? How can they get away with not ever being a leader? If I were on that girl's team, I would have made sure that I did not volunteer to be a leader twice until everyone else went at least once.

I agree, Allisons. The newest changes in the voting process are much better than they were in the guantlet and inferno, but I think each of them should have to be a leader in at least one round. I DO miss the cat-fighting a little bit, but not enough to want to have to see and hear it like in previous challenges! y the way, is Veronica receiving social security yet? (MEEOWWWWWWW!)

Veronica, et al, will be doing the "Denture Games" the way it looks. She, Coral, and a few of the others will be racing against the others doing things like pulling up their Depends, getting their teeth in the fastest, and doing memory challenges with questions like, "how many Real World/Road Rulers did Veronica sleep with over the decades?" Those women won't even remember...

As much as I love to watch the challenges, I hate seeing one team get beat so badly. If they are going to do men vs. women, then I think the challenges should be more balanced. Even this last one, Electroshock. The men had a better advantage because they naturally have more upper body strength. It was a good concept, but it shouldn't have relied as much on strength.

I also like the new voting technique, but what a good idea for a requirement on being a leader at least once. Some sort of requirment at least. The girls that step up to be leaders are pretty much giving themselves a 1 in 3 chance of going home, since they are almost certain to lose the challenge.

I am looking forward to the Naughty vs. Nice challenge. I hope Veronica is not on it, but I suppose you can't have a naughty challenge without her.

Well I can think of tons of candidates for the "Naughty" team, but after watching these guys backstab each other for the past several years, who in the world are they going to put on the "Nice" team? Name a "Nice" female. Go ahead, I dare you!

Mike has made to the final of Tough Enough, if you want to vote here is the link. He's definitely not my favorite, but I know this is his dream and how can I not at help by giving him at least one little internet vote!

I voted for Mike just so I don't have to see him on these challenges anymore. Where can I vote for Veronica to go away?

I usually like these challenges but this season doesn't keep my interest. Maybe I liked the other formats better.
BTW, Mike made it to the final two on Tough Enough but lost in the end I say. Poor Mike. I wonder why it's not shown on MTV anymore? I bet he will still get something out of it though. Boy has he come a long way from Parma and the Real World, Back to New York. :-)

the only thing that has me still watching this show is the fact that the old timers are getting voted off - so it may be all newbies (I can only hope) in the finals.
I'd love to not see Coral in the finals. She has gotten on my nerves with her "sense of entitlement" attitude.

I'd like to see the jump rope get voted off next

It certainly seems that way from previews. Of course, it is like tv to set you up and have it be something totally different.
