Battle of the Exes (1-25 SPOILERS)
Anyone watch? I know I'm probably in the minority, but I'm hoping this will bring Diem and CT as well as Abram and Cara Maria back together. I guess I'm just a romantic at heart 
Anyway, I wasn't sad to see Nate and Priscilla (can't spell that name!) go only because I think it's lame to have a battle of the exes theme with couples who aren't actually exes. I mean, their deal wasn't even a one-night-stand. It was one stupid kiss. That's a lame pairing!

Re: Battle of the Exes (1-25 SPOILERS)
I agree about Nate and Priscilla, I think they should have brought some of the older couples back - maybe they tried and they were just filler. I did feel awful for him that he kept falling off that beam
I always loved Diem and CT together I still think they love each other...
The Vinny guy I do not even remember...
Should be an interesting season though
I hate that I even know enough about this show to agree with everything you said. But I especially agree about CT and Diem! I LOVED them together. They're like Chuck and Blair!
I loled when Leroy said he was scared of Naomi.
WTF is Vinny?
I did not watch Nate and Priscilla's RW season but I just did not care for them. He seemed way too cocky. I told MH I wonder if he will still be that cocky once CT bulldoozes him over.
I think CT and Diem are still in love also. I think they need to work out their sh!t and get back together. Also, I think Abram and Cara Maria still love each other.
I sooo wanted Paula to retire already!
I am very excited about the season.
SO excited for this season...i just know someone is gonna get punched. it can't NOT happen.
i'm definitely rooting for CT and diem...and i'd like to see mark and robin get back together too

Vinny is from the same Fresh Meat challenge that introduced Laurel. WTF happened to him though? Didn't he used to be fairly fit? He wasn't looking too hot last night.
Did anyone catch Camilla's line during the honey challenge? "Honey is one of our exports from Bazil!" She sounded so excited and earnest, it just cracked me up.
I really wanted Wes to go. IMO, he's the worst one there. Even CT is a better person. Mandi's going to carry him to the finale just like last time, and then he's going to throw a hissy fit and lose. Again.
ditto---both couples still seem to still have some feelings for each other...
Another couple that would have been awesome--Ace and Mallory from RW Paris...
Made H watch with me--his comment? "Wow some of these guys are ripped." (as in lots of muscles). How old is Mark? He still has a pretty damn good body given that he is probably 10+ years older than some of the younger guys..
I want Diem and CT to get back together too! I also want them to win.
I wish they would've had actual exes instead of people who just kissed or had a one night stand because they could've found so many others.
Blog!
Imagine if they had brought Johanna in as Wes's partner. That would have been crazy!
I also have a soft spot for CT and Diem. I hope they at least work things out to the point that they can be friends. They both have gone through some majorly challenging things, but I will never forget how sweet he was to her when she was just growing her hair back from her chemo and was so worried about what people would think of her.
A few thoughts:
Vinny got fat!
Why did Sarah dye her hair blonde? Laurel also has blonde hair now, and it looks awful on her!
Mark looks SO GOOD! SO! GOOD! I hope he sticks around for a long time and also keeps his shirt off a lot.
Aneesa and Rachel will be interesting, I think.
I think it will be weird not to have Kenny or Evan on this season.
I agree Mark looks very good without his shirt on. He never has to put on a shirt for all I care!
Vinny did put on a LOT of weight. Wasn't he a marine or something like that?
I think those who went towards the end of the challenge got screwed because the beams by that point were so slippery. I felt bad that Nate couldn't even get across once, but what can you do?
Ahhh, yes, Johanna and Wes would have been more interesting. I can imagine that would be hostile! I'm sure the couplings were dependent on availability of willingness of people to participate, it just sucks that there are so few actual couples with real meaty histories and more couples that are just reaches. Or even Wes and Kelly Anne would have been a better couple than Mandi and Wes. But, I honestly can't stand Mandi at all. I hate her personality and superficially, her horrid dye job irks me to no end.

I know, right? I was telling H that she used to be more edgy looking with her dark hair and sleeves, and now she's all beachy-blonde...weird.
I completely forgot about her! Didn't she start dating another cast member after him? Her or Kelly Anne would've been so much better, but I can't imagine either of them would ever want to deal with Wes again.
I think Dan is the ex-military guy. Vinny is just...some dude.
I was hoping for Mark and Kit, instead of Mark and Rachel. Anyone remember her from the 1st season of Road Rules?
I love Diem, but she deserves so much more than CT. I hope they do well, but I'm not rooting for them to become a couple again. Yes, he was good to her when she needed it, but she needs someone without all his drama and anger.
Glad to see Nate and 'Scrilla go home.
Surprised that nobody has started ripping on Dustin for his past. I'm sure that's coming very soon! And then he'll probably hit someone and be asked to leave. Oh well.
I wish Paula would never go on a challenge again.
I think it's funny that Johny Bananas doesn't have his usual sidekicks this challenge.
I want to touch Mark's body.
I agree with you on all three points!
Definitely agree on all of these, especially the last one!

Mark is 41! Per IMDb at least. That's crazy.
Wait a second. I haven't watched these shows in AGES so I don't know who a lot of these people are, but Mark is still doing them. Seriously, dude, get a real job! He's older than I am! NO ONE from the first 4-5 seasons of either show should still be doing them. Please don't tell me that Beth still pops up too.
I love Kit! She was on the Real Simple shows for awhile and is now a host on Access Hollywood or something like that. With Billy Bush I think.
I remember when Timmy announced he was retiring from challenges. I believe I might have cried.
I don't care how old Mark is. I would like him and his beautiful, beautiful abs to make it to the very, very end.
I agree. I'm not a CT fan at all.
My random thoughts:
Watching Nate fall off the beam several times was hilarious.
I'm not going to miss Kenny, Evan, and Laurel this season, and it's nice to see a few different people again.
Every season Paula looks and sounds like she has aged 10 years.
Kit has a real job. She's a host on Access Hollywood these days.
