Same. I was surprised at first that it went from dark out to daylight when they got off the plane to the first daily Challenge. I'm guessing it was early early morning. I loved everything about that beginning. So good. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@jadeo6325 I had the same thought. I think their rivalry was genuine at the beginning of their Challenge careers but nowadays it feels more of a sibling type rivalry. I'd love to see them teamed up for a rivals season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It’s probably the best idea for them to work together, they haven’t had the best luck in recent years, hopefully they can put their pride to the side and stick to the plan
Yeah I agree. Wes did make the finals for War of the Worlds. But when looking at the house and seeing all these mid to late 20 somethings playing the game and then you have the oldies but goodies with the CT, Bananas, Wes and Aneesa that at a certain point you need to put away past pride and stick together. But we'll see how it goes. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
No, all except for Paulie and Ninja declined. Ninja just cause they don't want her and Paulie because he was being an idiot on IG by threatening the cast that he'll come for them next season (this one). Notice how calm he has been with what he been posting. @@elvincitore1512 Only an idiot would think Kam was a follower. Kam's personality is not to be an ass kisser and more of a leader. It was already established how she was the one that was the mastermind of plans for that alliance. The only thing Cara and Paulie did was willingly took the blame so that she won't be a target.
Biggest Takeaways for Me: -Wes and Bananas alliance is not gonna last, Wes has a history of burning his closes friends. So if Bananas is smart he would throw Wes in the first chance he gets. -This season is a weird combination of Cutthroat/Free Agents and has a Military/Apocalypse theme. -Putting the kitchen, gym, and pool in the same room is basically putting grease, sweat, and chlorine in the same room(when you look at this bunker with a more open mind you tend to realize the luxuries are really disadvantages, especially when the pool is 30° in the Winter underground!) -Swayleigh is not gonna be liked by alot of people if they keep getting close with eachother and barking at anyone who targets them. -Jay is gonna be thrown in again just for having a red skull. -Towards the end you see Jordan vs Fessy in Pole Wrestling and Bear is in the background, could be a double elimination. -Either Jenny or Dee is probably gonna be thrown in the next elimination round for being treats.
The girl vets have the same oddball plan as the guys. I see them throwing in rookies or someone that was new to last season to go against each other. They hardly make power moves this early.
@BEK Styles Yeah I kinda feel the Bananas & Wes alliance will either be split because of each other or people wise up to the fact that they are working together and throw them in against each other. Because when they hugged it was as if some people noticed and didn't like it. Someone said the show is a bit more like Vendettas which I fully agree with and I kinda hate it lol. Oooh good catch with the double elimination. I hope you are right. I would think the females would go along the way of the guys and put in two rookies. Taking a big shot so early would be fun to see I just don't know if they'd do something like that. But you never know. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@ryanayalarivera2917 They keep showing the same shot of Fessy landing on Jordan from different angles from the preview at the end of this episode and all the trailers in the off season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I'm curious to see if they ever touch on the fact that Jay's ex possibly cheated on him and got together with Bananas. Or that Tori and Asaf were on the same AYTO season
She definitely cheated on him, if I remember correctly she had to be honest as they brought a lie detector test to the reunion. I only see it getting discussed if Bananas begins to lead the charge to get Jay out of the house.
@Soleia I was confused about that too. I don't think they'll bring up AYTO now that Asaf's gone. But I'm sure Bananas and Jay will ramp up later in the show. Bananas wasn't hesitant to say Jay's name in the nomination ceremony. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@ihatescreennames89 Yeah and they didn't mention it at all whole ASAF was on The Challenge which is weird. But I agree it didn't factor in as Asaf was gone in a flash. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I thought the same thing. They have so much history with each other that it's time they should just join forces. 2020 is such a weird year. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It's kinda funny that Jordan said that Bananas & Wes have been eliminated early in the past few season. Bananas sure, but Wes finished 3rd in the hardest (maybe 2nd hardest behind Rivals 1 idk) final ever two seasons ago.
@Alex Wray Yeah I felt the same way when he said that. I do agree that you can't always hold grudges and solely try to get one person out season after season. You won't make it far that way. But he needs to check Wes' history.
@Jordan Vance Idk about that. Before War of the Worlds (minus the Champs vs whoever seasons) he and Nany got eliminated the ep right before the finals in Rivals 3. And in Battle of the Exes 2, Wes and Theresa was eliminated 2 episodes before the finals. And then he won Rivals 2 with CT. Wes has a bit of a better track record recently besides War of the Worlds 2. But he also benefits from a big hiatus from the main season where Bananas never takes a break. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Jay seems to not only be intelligent, but he know how to apply it unlike many of the players for this game. People are too afraid to make big moves early on and end up having to face their rivals or a huge alliance at the end. He will clearly be the easy vote for eliminations on guy days so I hope he shows out and end up on a future season.
@Harry Page Yeah it did. And that's the kind of mental processing and campaigning you get from old Survivor players. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@charmedlife1990 Agreed. He has to play a near flawless game to make it very far this season or to not be thrown in more. But I agree. I hope he comes back on for more seasons.
This is something I feel Ashley hasn't felt in awhile. And I thought last season she'd feel that way but she was brought into the numbers early. But those people aren't here so she is trying her best to gain numbers and fast. It's something we haven't seen from Ashley in a bit and it's interesting to watch. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids i love your vids. Ive been watching since Battle of the Sexes 1, i LOVE the challenge, and cant wait for mroe Challenges and more vids every year!
@@cohaddict Nice. I am so happy to find someone who loves and is obsessed with the Challenge as much as I do. Thank you so much for saying how much you are liking the videos. It's the biggest compliment I can get. Thank you again for your kind comment! More content is on its way.
Not really. He put a target on his back pre-merge and had no social game, which is what really matters in survivor. He was good at the challenges though.
@Iain MacFarlane Yeah I liked Jay on Survivor as well. I am hoping he makes it far but I have a sinking feeling he'll be thrown into more eliminations. He's gonna need to play this season perfect to make it very far. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@Kenny Martinez I am so excited The Challenge is back. And that announcement was pretty crazy. I was taken back by the hug. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@Nate_Dog24 It's interesting to see how this alliance will go. Will they be able to work together or will they fall back on old habits? I think it'll be genuine for like at least the first few episodes at least. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Awww thank you. I put my all in this video. I am so happy to hear you liked the video. This comment made my night. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I also find it funny and cool that all of us remember parts that stuck out to us to come here and share it with you and our other fellow challenge watchers ❤️
It's my favorite comments on these reviews. I love seeing what everyone loved, what didn't work and hearing who's peoples favorites. It's so much fun to hear. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
hahaha I bring the energy to all my videos. If I lack anything it's not enthusiasm for the Challenge. Thank you for watching and I am so happy to hear you enjoy the videos. It's a very big compliment to me. I really appreciate it!
Now that I'm reading this you are absolutely right. I wish it was more free agents but you are right and I'm a little bit more saddened by it. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
My highlights: Jenny, Dee, and Tori I feel are going to dominate the daily challenges. Wes and Bananas working together, as soon as the others catch on they are going to throw them in. (They’re going to orchestrate Jordan VS Fessy) I actually believe Kyle is going to hold up his promise to Rogan. I believe there are still more twists to come...
@@wolfjeter1256 That's some good highlights. Yeah I don't see any reason why Kyle wouldn't hold up his word to Rogan. And I feel they foreshadowed that when Kyle and CT were talking about how he can shake his "snaky" vibe. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
WEEKLY POWER RANKINGS: So two of my predictions were wrong already. Asaf was my wild card who I thought would do well, and Jay was my pick for most forgettable after going home first. Both were wrong. Having nothing else to judge the rookies on, Jay moves up 2 spots for his win. Jenny and Rogan also move up 1 spot for winning the daily challenge. Women: 1. Tori 2. Jenny (challenge win, +1) 3. Dee 4. Mattie 5. Jenna 6. Aneesa 7. Kailah 8. Ashley 9. Kaycee 10. Bayleigh 11. Melissa 12. Nany 13. Big T 14. Jennifer Men: 1. Jordan 2. CT 3. Kyle 4. Bear 5. Rogan (challenge win, +1) 6. Wes 7. Cory 8. Josh 9. Bananas 10. Nelson 11. Jay (elimination win & red skull, +2) 12. Swaggy 13. Fessy Eliminated: 1. Asaf (eliminated by Jay)
No offense but these are terrible. I’ll actually believe it more if you flipped the Male rankings because Fessy will be a beast this season im telling you. I also think this will be Bananas redemption season I’m calling it now
I think Jay proved that not only is he strong, but he's smart. Sadly I see him remaining the easy target to send in. I just hope he does enough to appear on a future season. The fact that Nany has all these friends and her boy toy overwhelmingly got voted in suggests how her game is going to go this season. I think this was a very good start although that gym, jacuzzi, kitchen, hangout set up looked like clickbait. Then again with how bad the rest of that bunker looks I can see why they may feel that space was the best place ever.
Yeah once you get voted in it's easy to be sent right back in. I think once in the bunker you just have to celebrate the little things like a 40 yard dash in the middle of a cement warehouse or a bottle of champagne next to an above ground pool. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids I agree. Either it is going to smell crazy down there after a few weeks like someone else posted or production is going to do an amazing job keeping the space clean lol.
@@charmedlife1990 When Dee and Rogan are yelling at each other in the room it looks like a complete mess. I can see it getting very dirty in that place really quickly. haha
You think Jordan is still an underdog. I feel as a 3x Challenge Champ, I think you can't be considered an underdog anymore. But I agree, Jay is under estimated and I think he'll continue to be the rest of the season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids No i meant to say Jordan at the beginning was and has had success after that introduction season he was really on his way 2 become a legend even tuo my fave is C.T he still is a heck of a competitor and Jay could follow that route aswell maybe too early but i really think he has that quality once he get rid of the butterflies. Sorry for not wording that right😁 Also i meant Jordans dissability makes him the underdog allways but he still beats them and its twice as much entertaining.
@@abdullaahiahmed8924 Okay I totally understand you now. Sorry for the misunderstanding. And I agree, Jay has a good social game and could make it far in Challenges especially if he establishes himself as a strong elimination threat
@@AngelcakeVids It is my fault if i cant articulate aswell as u do, thats why i rather watch your channel instead of even trying to do what u do😊 I also agree and he was pretty good in survivor aswell, im just rooting for his success. Keep up the great content as usual😎
@@abdullaahiahmed8924 I chock it up to some communication gets lost in text. Yeah I liked him alot and hope he can make it far. Thanks, I for sure will have more content coming out very soon.
Asaf has potential. I hope it is not one or done for him. I rather see him back over someone like Hunter or Devin at this point. But if it was Asaf or Derrick or Darell or Eric Nies (who told Scott and Derrick on Challenge Mania that he was ready to come back, I would pick a legend over a rookie. I hope Asaf has a Rogan turnaround in the future!
I'd love for Asaf to come back for another season. I think he knows the people more and maybe he'd feel more comfortable on a second season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@2 piece no bisuit Yeah I wished it was on Netflix or any streaming site I pay for already. And I didn't know Morgan was supposed to be on this season. But I'm kinda fine with just Bananas and Jay being on the season together having to deal with one another. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Thanks for the recap! Love that my Survivor Jay won the challenge! All those immunity challenges on Survivor trained him well. Hate Bananas, love Wes and CT. I am interested in an alliance between Wes and Bananas, they just need to be more secretive about and maybe eliminate the hugging lol
Yeah right? They hugged right infront of everyone and raised suspicions. Thank you so much for watching and I am so happy you enjoyed the video! I really appreciate it!
I am so happy The Challenge is back. My Wednesday nights were already jam packed but I'll gladly take on more if it means The Challenge is back on my tv. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
This episode was really good!! I happy to see the Johnny and Wes team up! I wonder if anyone is the house knows about their alliance! I’m really excited to see Fessy this season. He seems like he has a lot of potential!
I think some people are getting suspicious after that hug. Why did they do that out in the open? Fessy looks strong. I have high hopes for him after this first episode. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Now that they know about NEEDING to go into and elimination, the guys probably wish they didn’t put in those two rookie boys against each other. Now there are less perceived “ layups” to choose to go into an elimination with.... The girls will have a much easier time . The lady beasts’ have a lot of mediocre girls to chose from: Like Aneesa and the HolyTrinity and they still have the rookies as their perceived “layups” to choose from too. It’s gonna take quite a few episodes before the matchups are gonna start getting good. This the season I would have liked to see killa Kam, Laurel, Cara Marie, or even ninja’s annoying ass . So I can see more even matchups.
The girl rookies (other than Jen(?)) Seem to be physically and mentally strong. I don't see them being layups. The only downside is they haven't done this show so it's up in the air on how they'll fair in an elimination. Honestly I think they have a good female cast for eliminations other than Nany and Ashley. The rest of the vets have proven to hold their own in eliminations. This would be a good format to see Kam and Laurel in action though as they always show out for eliminations.
That's a great point. Now the guys wished they would've gone up against Asaf or maybe taken a bigger shot early. I can see a strong female maybe wanting to step up or see if they can persuade the tribunal into sending them into the elimination in exchange for an alliance. Like say Jenn from Amazing Race gets nominated then Tori, Jenny or Dee then goes up to the tribunal and tries to get thrown in. I can see this being the new strategy going forward this season. And yeah I wished Kam, Laurel and Cara was on this season to see more of where everyone stands. Thanks for watching and commenting this great point. I really appreciate it!
I think it's a good thing that Wes and Johnny work together. Last season their rivalry tore the group apart. It hurts them more going against each other now. What Jordan said in the confessional is true. Holding on to pass rivalry from what 10 years ago is crazy. They act just alike so they should be best friends.
I actually think they might play around with the amount of elimimations during the season. Imagine having less eliminations than usual but having purges on challenges? It could be a great ideia for the long hall and actually make eliminations these really big moments.
That's a great idea. I think they tried to make the first elimination really grand with having the guys in the air but I felt it was a bit lackluster as they just needed to hang on longer. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Awwww thank you so much. I try to be awesome. I am so happy you found my channel as well. I am glad you enjoyed the video. It's one of the biggest compliments I can get. Thank you for watching and for leaving this very awesome and amazing comment! I really appreciate it!
@@aberod2958 The one thing I bring to every video is energy and enthusiasm for The Challenge. I promise you that haha Thank you. I appreciate hearing you like the videos. I have more coming
I'm sorry but where did this feud between Rogan and Kyle start? I am kinda confused. I wouldn't be surprised if Kyle tries to backstab Rogan but Kyle also was looking for advice on how to change how people perceive him as a snake. Maybe he'll keep his word to help his reputation? Maybe, maybe not? We'll have to wait and see. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I’m not a big fan of Bayleigh based off episode 1. She had a lot of personality. If she can back it up this season then maybe my opinion of her will change... lol.
Deonta Alor she’s awful. Her basic go to is screaming fits. Try’s to intimidate, if that doesn’t work, it’s on to “oh poor poor me”, if that doesn’t work, she’s got nothing. But, that’s based on Big Brother. Swaggy (yes he’s a grown man) thinks he’s cunning, but, he’s not. Can’t wait until they’re gone.
I'm loving the start of this season so far. I was so upset with the past challenges, and how people skated by without earning it! Finally, you have to earn your right to go to the finals.
Same. I loved the beginning, love the daily challenge and I love the twist. People are worried it takes away from the political aspect of the game but I'd rather see everyone in an elimination once instead of the same 3 being chosen over and over again. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids I don't have any friends or family who watch MTV the challenge and I subscribed to you because you enjoy the show as much as I do! Plus, I love your commentary and sense of humor. :)
@@Chaucer129 That's exactly why I started making Challenge videos. None of my friends watched it and I wanted to talk to other fans who are obsessed with it as I am. I am so happy you enjoy the videos and like my commentary/sense of humor. This is like the biggest compliment ever in my opinion. I look forward to hearing more of your thoughts as the season progresses!
Love bnans and gingerbreadman working together!! They finally aren't letting old grudges affect their gameplay maybe they'll actually do well this season!!
One can only hope. Jordan kinda foreshadowed it by saying you can't make it far if you don't let grudges go. Maybe that's a good sign. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@jordanrector1184 Awww you so awesome. I am working hard on these videos and hearing you like them means a lot to me. I got more content coming very very soon.
Finally Wes and Bananas on one side. Let’s see how long it lasts. Hopefully they go most of the season as I’m sure there will be bumps in the road for both of them. Great first episode. Nany!!!! I have to agree with you Drew that you don’t know how long you have in the house, so go for it, but seriously she needs to get her head in the game. Ashley is going to end up gunning for the Jenna, Kailey, Nany alliance so it will be fun to watch then go at Ashley. Great first episode and great first Vid Drew!!!
Yeah who knows how long this truce shall last. I loved this first episode. I hope the season keeps this hype up. I think ever since Ashley took the money in Final Reckoning and being the top paid Challenger will always paint a target on her back. Thank you so much I am so happy you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
We have to see what happens. If only they could've done this earlier in their careers, they may both could've had more wins. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Exactly. This season is gonna be fireworks and whoever wins the final it should feel more deserved as all of them would have won an elimination to get there. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
They're back!!! This was amazing!! TJ now drives tanks. Someone has to stop BananWes - And Nany w/ her kiss of death! It's anyone's game. Best twist ever! Can not wait to watch the rest of the season!! Let's go!❤😂💥😭💪
You sound as hyped as I am to see the next episode. TJ and those tanks was awesome. I was trying to come up with a team name for them and I was between Wananas or Bes...not my strong suit. I can't wait for episode 2! So excited! Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
That would be a great OG team up. Pops will most likely stay on the fence but what a team up with would be. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I know right? They pretty much know each other the most from all the seasons they've done. They might as well join forces. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Not to be the biggest dork of all time but all of them answered the math questions correctly. They were going just left to right while they should have done the division first. Just sayin
I saw this critique all over twitter and I agree with you. But if producers told them to just go left to right or gave them the thumbs up when they put the numbers up that's on them. Whether they follow pemdas or not. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Pretty dope to jump right into the action, plus that daily was a good combo of brains and brawn. Then that elimination was sweet. Probably a solid 8/10 for me. Honestly i thought the last couple seasons have been to political so it’s a nice change to see it focus on the action again.
Yes I feel the same exact way. So much about numbers and circumventing eliminations. I wonder if Paulie flopping in the finals last season pissed off production and now making people go into the eliminations are a reason because of it. I am so excited for more action and bigger daily challenges. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
So excited that everybody has to go into an elimination since eliminations are the best part of the show. A little annoyed that Bananas and Wes are trying to convince us they just now get able to get along like they haven’t been coworkers for like 10 yrs 🙄 but overall I enjoy this cast as a group.
I love the twist as well. And I agree, they secretly have liked each other and have been on friendly terms. it's like WWE where they play it up every season to turn heel. I too enjoy the cast and the first ep. Can't wait for the next one. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Angelcake Entertainment oh no problem thank you for your content. Its always nice to see someone who turns their passion into a productive product. Who do you see winning this season?
@@jonnycolucci7683 Awww thank you. Hearing how much you are enjoying the channel and videos really means a lot to me. I think it's too early to tell. Rogan and Jenny did great in the first challenge but we have such a long game ahead of us. A single DQ or elimination could be the one misstep that takes a strong competitor out.
Angelcake Entertainment I feel that. I think it may depend on how long the producers have this game go on for too since they’re trying to get that competition/drama balance who’s head is just gonna leave the game ❤️
Fessy did really well in this first challenge and looks like a force to be reckoned with. Rogan and dee backed up their previous challenge win with displaying very strong first performances. Jenny is a beast and a very intimidating threat to win it all. Asaf doesn’t seem like the sharpest tool in the shed. First off he was doing a very intense warm up before the elimination and then in the elimination he completely exhausted his arms by not letting them hang loose on the bar. Props to him for getting it in with Nany haha. I don’t think Wes and bananas will last that long. People will catch on and they will get thrown in soon.
Very astute observations. I think Fessy, Jenny, Dee and Rogan will be tough to bring down this season. And I have no clue how this Bananas and Wes situation will go. It could be good or just fall apart fast. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I love the change up for the house this season. It fits the times and it's not just another mansion. Also it's one I would like to live with. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
"These math problems are no joke".... no they are a joke and the fact that they didn't even follow the correct order of operations means production doesn't even know simple maths.
I meant they weren't a joke in the way that they were taking out a ton of the Challengers. And production must've told them to go from left to right instead of the real Order of Operations. That's the only thing that makes sense of why everyone did them all not the right way. Thanks for watching and commenting! Also love the San Junipero episode of Black Mirror. It's one of my top 3 favorite episodes.
@@kamakaziemelon Yeah they'd rather work out their biceps then their brains lol I hope Jay makes it far as well. I can't lie, these rookies look like they can do some damage this season.
I don’t consider people like Jenny and Rogan “veterans” ... idk they’ve literally done ONE season so I just don’t think they deserve that title yet 🤷🏼♀️
Hahaha for real. Off screen they must've told them to just go left to right. Because Tori had to divide 63 by 2 if they actually had to do OoO. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I hope the video did an adequate enough job to help paint the full picture. I am happy I can help with the Challenge cravings. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It made me so confused. You have to be right because Wes is so strategic that it felt completely out of place. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I think at the beginning. More options and by that time someone has a better shot of slipping. If you go in at the end you might be going into an elimination against someone who already won one and has confidence. That's my opinion. What do you think?
Tarence McElroy she probably didn’t get the 63 part right. Of course they wouldn’t give her a number that wasn’t whole because there would be no way for her to rack it on the hooks.
@@TO-kk7xf I thought the same thing. That's why I think theres something that the producers told them off screen to just go left to right instead of the order of operations. Everyone is getting hooked up on it but I feel if everyone was not doing the way math teachers taught in school it must be something the producers said. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
12/10 is my rating of the premiere lol I REALLY like the format of needing to win an elimination to get into the final. However, I feel like people won't be trying as hard in the daily challenges. Since winning the daily challenge places you in the tribunal, then those people in the tribunal automatically are out of the running to be selected from the "losing" challengers as the person up for elimination. I feel like they should have provided an incentive to winning a daily challenge to eliminate that issue. Also, people will be campaigning hard to go into the elimination. I like that Wes and Bananas are working together. It'll definitely be interesting to see how that works out. I just have a feeling that once people catch on to their alliance that they'll put them up against each other. Which, based on previews, makes sense since there was a preview where TJ mentioned something like "finally you two are going against each other in an elimination"
I'd agree with that improper fraction rating. I too love the twist for this season. I heard that as well from some people. I think being in the tribunal helps give you a ton of power which can help build bridges for later in the game. But throwing comps can be an issue or a loop hole if they haven't thought it through. Yeah after them hugging out in the open raising suspicions in ep 1, I can see people wising up putting them against each other. This season should be good. I hope it keeps riding this hype train all season long. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
You don't think they can collaborate enough with each other? Who do you think would turn on who first? Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I think he was taking "role" but I think it was mainly for aesthetic. A reason for him to be there as the plane arrived and for him to be first on the scene. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I feel as if Bayleigh comes out too strong. Like you even think about doing anything bad to swaggy she comes and just beats that person DOWN. I think people are definitely gonna try to get either her or swaggy out at one point.
@Nekolu Cielto If they want to make a final they'll have to each go into an elimination. It seems people want to work with Bayleigh for now. I think she comes off strong and if she can win some tribunals she can make it far. We have to wait and see what happens. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I liked this opener and I also liked blood lines & vendettas also the preview after the episode was really good with the Kayla saying she has a boyfriend back home but she kissed bear
Yeah I agree. That preview gave me chills. It was so good and now I'm just sitting here waiting for ep 2. I need my Challenge fix! Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
That is a very good question. I have no idea. I'd love to see someone wait until the end to see what actually happens. Thanks for watching and making me think! I really appreciate it!
@@SurvivorNerdTTV But what is the deal with not saying he was on AYTO? He talked about all the shows he was in except fo this one and I have the feeling MTV is kind of hiding it too, that's weird...🤔
You think they really rigged it? Eh Rogan did really bad at trivia last season now that I think about it. I have more faith in Dee doing math than Rogan. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids 97% percent sure they rigged it for rogan and dee to win but jenny was stronger and faster than dee. They didn't show rogan or dee at the math part or puzzle...and rogan didn't even seem happy at his 1st solo win challenge like he knew he was gonna win
Wes and Bananas, Teaming at long last, I can't wait to see how long this'll last before they try to get each other out if that does happen, I'm gonna have to see more challenges and eliminations before I decide who's a great player because you could've been amazing in a previous season by winning a bunch of eliminations only to be taken out in your first elimination of a new season so I will wait and see before seeing who I think is great at The Challenge in this season. Knowing that Jay is a rock climber made it clear to me he'd win elimination since rock climbers are good at upper body strength (just look at American Ninja Warrior for examples) so I know holding on wouldn't be too hard for him so Asaf winning seemed like a long shot, although I hope to see more of Jay to see if he's got any other strengths. I like the twist of how you need to win elimination in order to get into the finals because now you want to go into elimination so you can have a chance to win $1,000,000 but the only problem is that you don't have a choice in who you're facing so you better hope you're up against someone inferior to you. This was a good first episode but me and everyone else cannot wait to see what Wes and Bananas do as a team! I'll be rooting for them for sure, go team...Uhhh, I guess I'll call them team Rivals? Yeah that sounds fitting and good enough, go Team Rivals!
I totally understand where you are coming from. I can see people in the nomination ceremony seeing who's voted in and then trying to persuade the tribunal to put them in. Maybe like put me in now and I'll put you in later. Or being voted in by the house and then have faith in the tribunal to put someone you want in. I can't wait to see how this twist changes up the house. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
He stays alive and will be here for another week with a women's elimination next week. He looked good in his first elimination. Thanks for watching and commenting! i really appreciate it!
Rogan and Kyle are friends now? Rogan,Fessy,Jenny and Dee are the stars of first episode and Jay killed 🔥🔥 I hope Asaf don’t quit cuz I think he could be great in future seasons,just need be more prepared,he got heart ... I don’t like how people feel about voting Swaggy C cuz of Baileigh,they are both rookies and rookies need to be tested it’s fair call I guess 🤷🏽♂️
I'd like to see Asaf back on The Challenge. I think if they are perceived as a threat and people don't want to vote them in then that's for the competitors in the house. For him to make it into the finals he'll have to go in eventually. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
What was with that? Wes was all up in his feelings and just went off on him. I get he doesn't want his name said but I felt that kinda was over the top. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I am glad you enjoyed it. I try to have fun with all the intros I make. I am glad I could give you a laugh. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Maybe. Or they will be bartering to get thrown in. Possibly a I'll throw you in if you throw me in kind of deal. i can see that happening in future episodes. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@LuQaBras1 I can see pros and cons for both. If you wait at least you know you are closer to the finals and may not be thrown in again. And you could get someone who is injured like when Theo went up against a bruised and battered Kyle in the Hall Brawl
Same here. I wish they could shape the game to where it would benefit vets to go in earlier in the season over rookies. I don't think having to win an elimination will be that big of a motivator.
@Deonta Alor For sure. And I'm sure the men are upset they put two rookies in now knowing the twist for this new season. I'm sure the women will have a different strategy for their first elimination.
Yes!!! Wes and Bananas!!! The Red Banana!!! Also, am I gonna be the first to say it? Nany has the Bad Luck “Clam?” Basically, f#ck Nany and you gonna be eliminated!!!
I don't think Wes & Bananas are going to play eachother. I think the game is going to play them. I think there will be some trust issues and a few shakeups but I do think this will be a genuine alliance. I think they are going to have a lot of power and a lot of numbers. I think Wes will get Swayleigh on their side. I think Rogan, Dee, Kyle, Mattie, Nany, Kaliah, Jenna, Aneesa, Melissa, Jenny, Bear & Josh are all going to be a part of their alliance. I think Cory & Nelson will also be close with Wes but won't fully trust him or Bananas but both will be strategically aligned only to watch and be protected until they make a power move of their own and try to take control of the game. I think CT and Fessy will play a neutral game aligned with no one but won't cross the Wes/Bananas alliance. Ashley, Big T, Jay, Jordan & Tori are going to be the outsiders trying to break up their alliance and it's going to cost them all. I think Wes & Bananas but mainly Wes will orchestrate getting Jordan against Fessy and once that happens is when I think Cory & Nelson are going to double cross Wes & Bananas either Cory & Nelson are going to make the tribunal. In fact I think Cory will make the tribunal and add Nelson to it and they both are going to either vote in Bananas or Wes and thats when the rest of the house is going to throw in the other so they can go against eachother and put the two biggest players against eachother. You have to really listen to those audio voiceovers in the trailer and pay attention to the little details. Bananas says I'm surrounded by liars, scumbags and crybabies. That tells me he's going to be sent in blindsided. Also I find it interesting Bananas recently said in an interview Cory would be his ideal person to be partnered up with. That tells me Cory is going to make some power moves in this season and he obviously does some things to have Bananas say in the future I want to work with this guy. The Bear/Kailah relationship is not going to be good for the Wes/Bananas alliance or any of their games and it's going to blow up Mattie vs Big T is going to have to do about Mattie following Wes & Bananas which Big T is not going to do. When Mattie is talking to someone saying if you're not good mentally you won't be good in this game is very interesting and there's a number of people she could be talking about. Now what a lot of people failed to realize is Wes was blowing up and making a scene on purpose. He knew he wasn't going in but his blowup at Asaf was a performance. He wasn't upset or worried in the slightest and I love how he just gave a bunch of bullshit to the tribunal. Bananas however screwed up by hugging him. Everyone noticed! Bananas shouldn't have done that in fact Wes & Bananas need to be acting like they still hate eachother and if I were them i would form my own alliance and banning them together. Basically you have the people that Wes assembles & the peopke that Bananas assembles and use them both but with only Wes & Bananas knowing what's going on in both groups. Rogan is clearly going to fuck Dee over. I can see that as clear as day. Rogan is going to fuck Dee to save his own ass. Jay will be an easy target and I see him going into multiple eliminations. He's going to try and play both sides & it's going to bite him in the ass. Jenny is going to dominate this season. She's not going to get involved with the drama or politics too much. Her and Kacey are just going to be very neutral in the background dominating in dailies and eliminations playing a very under the radar dominant game. Kyle is going to be Wes/Bananas secret weapon. He is going to hide behind them the entire time and it's going to benefit him more than Wes & Bananas. Ashley is going to be the first one to figure out that Wes & Bananas are working together & they are going to target her. She tells Big T there's an alliance I need to earn you about later and the perception is she's talking about the Nany, Jenna & Kailah alliance but no it's the Wes/Bananas alliance. Ashley knows and she will put a huge target on her back because of it and so will Big T by association. Dee says their not your friends Rogan. Rogan is going to align with Cory & Nelson & he's going to be the deciding factor that puts Wes & Bananas against eachother. So he's going to fuck Dee & fuck over Wes & Bananas. That's all I got so far. I could be wrong but from what I've seen in the trailers and the first episode that's everything I'm predicting and picking up on at the moment.
Wow that is alot. I read your last line and laughed when you said "That's all I got so far." This was very detailed and documented. I really appreciate you taking the time to give us your detailed thoughts. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I like the twist but I dont at the same time because if you have to go into an elimination then what's the point in winning daily challenges. But besides that this season looks 🔥🔥
John Gilliam I somewhat agree, but earning the power could still be beneficial to their game... For example, it might be better for a strong player to get in first against a weak player, then start winning daily challenges to stay out of going in again. And for more strategic players, winning daily challenges might help them control and manipulate who goes in and they therefore don’t have to go against the people they strategized to throw in/eliminate. Either way, this twist is gonna change the dynamic of the way this game is played immensely, I can’t wait to see how this plays out.
@John Gilliam I agree. I've heard this brought up by several people. I hope they have something in place to dissuade people from throwing daily challenges. I guess we'll see what happens. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@ohemgeeitspriscilla That's a great point. I think this will be how people see and play the game. I like the twist this season and I can't wait to see how it all plays out. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Will MTV enforce copyright if you record your live reaction every Wednesday without the picture in picture? and maybe chop up your favorite highlights. That could be fun.💪
When I first started making these videos I used to try to make highlights with the episode and do reaction videos to that week's episodes but MTV and Viacom are quick with the copyright strike. They wouldn't if I just film myself watching the episode but idk how that'd work. I would love to have more live streaming capabilities but I don't have the money just yet. Thanks for watching and the suggestions! I really appreciate it!
I lovveeee the idea of having to win an elimination to go to the final since u know how I feel about Rogan’s win! I feel like this season the vibe was kinda of different maybe it was the new editing or setting something. Buttt I really didn’t like when Bailey ( I know that not how you spell it) came after jay for bringing up swaggy because jay wasn’t doing it maliciously , he was trying to prove the point the point of the “rookie” excuse should go for swaggy too. And I mean also you should expect when that coming into “THE CHALLENGE “ and not be defensive but look if she let him go into the elimination. He could’ve gotten skull and a key to the finals. And the hanging elimination didn’t excite me or catch my interest. I didn’t like it. I think the challenge was trying to give a more “grand “ effect . If you get what am trying to say
Yeah I love the twist and all the different strategies that are gonna be implemented to try to get into eliminations this season. And yeah the hanging challenge fell flat to me as well. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Yeah they need to make things look back to the status quo between them. That hug was so off kilter and brought up some suspicions. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
You can! just get a vpn and change the country to Canada. Then type mtv.ca and find "The Challenge: Total Madness" I'm from the UK and I've been doing this for years
I like the whole new going into elimination to be able to be qualified for finals but on the other hand is sucks for the good competitors that keep winning and winning challenges. What are you supposed to suck at a challenge to go to the elimination to qualify for the finals that’s not fair either... but i rather have this because if we had this last season, Paulys bumm ass wudve been down there n we all know when he goes to elimination hes Mr.Redemption House lmaooo
I love the twist this season and I wonder how it will effect the strategy of the game and how everyone plays. I can't wait for tonight's episode. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I'll have to rewatch it again. I remember seeing Nany and Asaf kissing, Dee and maybe Jay kissing and Kailah and Bear kissing. Idk about 2 girls. I'll check it out tho. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@YuupWereCool So I rewatched the end credit season thing. If you are talking about the people kissing at the bar, I believe it's Dee and Jay. That's if we are talking about the same scene
@@YuupWereCool I think it maybe a dress up party. Rogan has some heavy eyeliner in one super trailer when it pans over to him. But I am happy it's not Kaycee because she does have a significant other back home and I don't want to see more people cheating
My favorite females Bayleigh Melissa Kahila Mattie And I actually like the new bunk house thing and the thing Johnny and west I don't see it lasting and I wonder what girls r going to be pick for elimination next week I think bayleigh and big t and bayleigh wins that's my thoughts
Blah this wes&bananas thing is staged & wont last. Congrats to rogan for winning the first daily. What a way to prove himself. Also congrats to fessy for being the only rookie to finish all 3 stages. To jenny for winning on the girls’ side. Congrats to jay for his elimination win but the tribunal shouldve picked kyle🤷🏽♂️.
It's a promising first episode. Alot is built up and we'll have to see how this game shakes out. I can't wait to see how the twist shakes up the game. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I do in my Friday Total Madness videos. I give people me standing up and sitting down. I like to give variety. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
This season is already wack and tacky. This new rule about having to go into elimination to be in the final is completely bullshit. It ruins the whole concept of the challenge and what it stood for. Going into elimination doesn't mean you deserve to be in a final, you could win a elimination just by luck. You prove yourself in the daily challenges , elimination is just for you to get yourself back into the competition. This season ruins the point of trying to win a daily challenge if you have to go into elimination to qualify for the final, the tribunal especially doesn't make any sense if the point is to go into elimination. Thanks to the new cry baby fans , y'all have officially ruined the challenge.
I really liked how they started it off immediately. Best season premiere in a while.
Same. I was surprised at first that it went from dark out to daylight when they got off the plane to the first daily Challenge. I'm guessing it was early early morning. I loved everything about that beginning. So good. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I always thought they just wanted to make it seem like they’re rivals in case they do another season of rivals so they would partner them together 😂🤣😂
Jade O they have not liked each other way before the 1st rivals premiered
Cameron Bailey Wes only didn’t like Johnny cause he was friends with Kenny I don’t think they had any real beef tho
@@jadeo6325 I had the same thought. I think their rivalry was genuine at the beginning of their Challenge careers but nowadays it feels more of a sibling type rivalry. I'd love to see them teamed up for a rivals season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It’s probably the best idea for them to work together, they haven’t had the best luck in recent years, hopefully they can put their pride to the side and stick to the plan
Yeah I agree. Wes did make the finals for War of the Worlds. But when looking at the house and seeing all these mid to late 20 somethings playing the game and then you have the oldies but goodies with the CT, Bananas, Wes and Aneesa that at a certain point you need to put away past pride and stick together. But we'll see how it goes. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I honestly wish Kam was on this season, but I feel as if they didn’t cast any of the “ringleaders” in the alliance from last season.
Kam was more like a follower not a leader , and honestly that alliance was toxic as hell we're better off without it
Ashley running around in circles loll
No, all except for Paulie and Ninja declined. Ninja just cause they don't want her and Paulie because he was being an idiot on IG by threatening the cast that he'll come for them next season (this one). Notice how calm he has been with what he been posting.
@@elvincitore1512 Only an idiot would think Kam was a follower. Kam's personality is not to be an ass kisser and more of a leader. It was already established how she was the one that was the mastermind of plans for that alliance. The only thing Cara and Paulie did was willingly took the blame so that she won't be a target.
Emoni Rocks Paulie will most likely be back next season after his season break as punishment
Yeah a lot of those people from last season did not come off very well. As a viewer I’m glad to have a break from them.
Biggest Takeaways for Me:
-Wes and Bananas alliance is not gonna last, Wes has a history of burning his closes friends. So if Bananas is smart he would throw Wes in the first chance he gets.
-This season is a weird combination of Cutthroat/Free Agents and has a Military/Apocalypse theme.
-Putting the kitchen, gym, and pool in the same room is basically putting grease, sweat, and chlorine in the same room(when you look at this bunker with a more open mind you tend to realize the luxuries are really disadvantages, especially when the pool is 30° in the Winter underground!)
-Swayleigh is not gonna be liked by alot of people if they keep getting close with eachother and barking at anyone who targets them.
-Jay is gonna be thrown in again just for having a red skull.
-Towards the end you see Jordan vs Fessy in Pole Wrestling and Bear is in the background, could be a double elimination.
-Either Jenny or Dee is probably gonna be thrown in the next elimination round for being treats.
Not looking good for Jordan in that pole wrestle
The girl vets have the same oddball plan as the guys. I see them throwing in rookies or someone that was new to last season to go against each other. They hardly make power moves this early.
@BEK Styles Yeah I kinda feel the Bananas & Wes alliance will either be split because of each other or people wise up to the fact that they are working together and throw them in against each other. Because when they hugged it was as if some people noticed and didn't like it. Someone said the show is a bit more like Vendettas which I fully agree with and I kinda hate it lol. Oooh good catch with the double elimination. I hope you are right. I would think the females would go along the way of the guys and put in two rookies. Taking a big shot so early would be fun to see I just don't know if they'd do something like that. But you never know. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@charmedlife1990 I had the same exact thought. Great minds think alike. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@ryanayalarivera2917 They keep showing the same shot of Fessy landing on Jordan from different angles from the preview at the end of this episode and all the trailers in the off season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I'm curious to see if they ever touch on the fact that Jay's ex possibly cheated on him and got together with Bananas. Or that Tori and Asaf were on the same AYTO season
Morgan? haha reality tv is hilarious
She definitely cheated on him, if I remember correctly she had to be honest as they brought a lie detector test to the reunion. I only see it getting discussed if Bananas begins to lead the charge to get Jay out of the house.
@Soleia I was confused about that too. I don't think they'll bring up AYTO now that Asaf's gone. But I'm sure Bananas and Jay will ramp up later in the show. Bananas wasn't hesitant to say Jay's name in the nomination ceremony. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@ihatescreennames89 Yeah and they didn't mention it at all whole ASAF was on The Challenge which is weird. But I agree it didn't factor in as Asaf was gone in a flash. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
When I heard that they were going to work together I was screaming🙀🙀😱😱 I'm like it's about time
I thought the same thing. They have so much history with each other that it's time they should just join forces. 2020 is such a weird year. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It's kinda funny that Jordan said that Bananas & Wes have been eliminated early in the past few season. Bananas sure, but Wes finished 3rd in the hardest (maybe 2nd hardest behind Rivals 1 idk) final ever two seasons ago.
@Alex Wray Yeah I felt the same way when he said that. I do agree that you can't always hold grudges and solely try to get one person out season after season. You won't make it far that way. But he needs to check Wes' history.
@Jordan Vance Idk about that. Before War of the Worlds (minus the Champs vs whoever seasons) he and Nany got eliminated the ep right before the finals in Rivals 3. And in Battle of the Exes 2, Wes and Theresa was eliminated 2 episodes before the finals. And then he won Rivals 2 with CT. Wes has a bit of a better track record recently besides War of the Worlds 2. But he also benefits from a big hiatus from the main season where Bananas never takes a break. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
When jay was being interrogated the point he made about the rookies being thrown in made a lot of sense
Jay seems to not only be intelligent, but he know how to apply it unlike many of the players for this game. People are too afraid to make big moves early on and end up having to face their rivals or a huge alliance at the end. He will clearly be the easy vote for eliminations on guy days so I hope he shows out and end up on a future season.
@Harry Page Yeah it did. And that's the kind of mental processing and campaigning you get from old Survivor players. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@charmedlife1990 Agreed. He has to play a near flawless game to make it very far this season or to not be thrown in more. But I agree. I hope he comes back on for more seasons.
my biggest takeaway is that Ashley, without friends or alliances, is LOST lol
This is something I feel Ashley hasn't felt in awhile. And I thought last season she'd feel that way but she was brought into the numbers early. But those people aren't here so she is trying her best to gain numbers and fast. It's something we haven't seen from Ashley in a bit and it's interesting to watch. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids i love your vids. Ive been watching since Battle of the Sexes 1, i LOVE the challenge, and cant wait for mroe Challenges and more vids every year!
@@cohaddict Nice. I am so happy to find someone who loves and is obsessed with the Challenge as much as I do. Thank you so much for saying how much you are liking the videos. It's the biggest compliment I can get. Thank you again for your kind comment! More content is on its way.
I remeber Jay from survivor i'm rooting for him this season he was the true winner of Adam's season
Not really. He put a target on his back pre-merge and had no social game, which is what really matters in survivor. He was good at the challenges though.
@Iain MacFarlane Yeah I liked Jay on Survivor as well. I am hoping he makes it far but I have a sinking feeling he'll be thrown into more eliminations. He's gonna need to play this season perfect to make it very far. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
WE BACK BABY🔥🔥🔥🔥 finally these two guys join forces.
Team You're All Fucked ftw!
@Kenny Martinez I am so excited The Challenge is back. And that announcement was pretty crazy. I was taken back by the hug. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I feel like Wes and Bananas are playing each other.
Wes and Bananas are no longer fighting on Instagram and Twitter so I guess this alliance is genuine
@Nate_Dog24 It's interesting to see how this alliance will go. Will they be able to work together or will they fall back on old habits? I think it'll be genuine for like at least the first few episodes at least. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids No problem man keep up the good work.
@@nathanvitello7759 I will for sure. I am working on more and new stuff all the time

Awww thank you. I put my all in this video. I am so happy to hear you liked the video. This comment made my night. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Lol, that twist showed all who slided into a challenge
No more skating or sliding. Everyone earns their spot in the final. So happy. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I also find it funny and cool that all of us remember parts that stuck out to us to come here and share it with you and our other fellow challenge watchers ❤️
It's my favorite comments on these reviews. I love seeing what everyone loved, what didn't work and hearing who's peoples favorites. It's so much fun to hear. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Bro , you are ON in this video 👏🏾😂
Keep up the good content. 🔥
hahaha I bring the energy to all my videos. If I lack anything it's not enthusiasm for the Challenge. Thank you for watching and I am so happy to hear you enjoy the videos. It's a very big compliment to me. I really appreciate it!
The format is more like vendettas to me than free agents
Now that I'm reading this you are absolutely right. I wish it was more free agents but you are right and I'm a little bit more saddened by it. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
My highlights:
Jenny, Dee, and Tori I feel are going to dominate the daily challenges.
Wes and Bananas working together, as soon as the others catch on they are going to throw them in. (They’re going to orchestrate Jordan VS Fessy)
I actually believe Kyle is going to hold up his promise to Rogan.
I believe there are still more twists to come...
I also saw a Jordan vs. Fessy elimination in the trailers, looks like Pole Wrestle
Jenny, Dee and Tori man what a trio
Johnny Talks Sports yup, I feel like Bananas and Wes are going to try to eliminate Jordan so they are going to throw him in against Fessy
@@wolfjeter1256 That's some good highlights. Yeah I don't see any reason why Kyle wouldn't hold up his word to Rogan. And I feel they foreshadowed that when Kyle and CT were talking about how he can shake his "snaky" vibe. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Angelcake Entertainment love your content and insight!
WEEKLY POWER RANKINGS:
So two of my predictions were wrong already. Asaf was my wild card who I thought would do well, and Jay was my pick for most forgettable after going home first. Both were wrong. Having nothing else to judge the rookies on, Jay moves up 2 spots for his win. Jenny and Rogan also move up 1 spot for winning the daily challenge.
Women:
1. Tori
2. Jenny (challenge win, +1)
3. Dee
4. Mattie
5. Jenna
6. Aneesa
7. Kailah
8. Ashley
9. Kaycee
10. Bayleigh
11. Melissa
12. Nany
13. Big T
14. Jennifer
Men:
1. Jordan
2. CT
3. Kyle
4. Bear
5. Rogan (challenge win, +1)
6. Wes
7. Cory
8. Josh
9. Bananas
10. Nelson
11. Jay (elimination win & red skull, +2)
12. Swaggy
13. Fessy
Eliminated:
1. Asaf (eliminated by Jay)
Fessy at 13 is interesting, he performed really well in the daily challenge and people seem hesitant to target him.
Johnny Fines bananas and nany that low😬
BiGDdY T wym nany isn’t good
No offense but these are terrible. I’ll actually believe it more if you flipped the Male rankings because Fessy will be a beast this season im telling you.
I also think this will be Bananas redemption season I’m calling it now
Jordan is great and all but he has a target on his back.. he’s just that good
I think Jay proved that not only is he strong, but he's smart. Sadly I see him remaining the easy target to send in. I just hope he does enough to appear on a future season. The fact that Nany has all these friends and her boy toy overwhelmingly got voted in suggests how her game is going to go this season. I think this was a very good start although that gym, jacuzzi, kitchen, hangout set up looked like clickbait. Then again with how bad the rest of that bunker looks I can see why they may feel that space was the best place ever.
Yeah once you get voted in it's easy to be sent right back in. I think once in the bunker you just have to celebrate the little things like a 40 yard dash in the middle of a cement warehouse or a bottle of champagne next to an above ground pool. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids I agree. Either it is going to smell crazy down there after a few weeks like someone else posted or production is going to do an amazing job keeping the space clean lol.
@@charmedlife1990 When Dee and Rogan are yelling at each other in the room it looks like a complete mess. I can see it getting very dirty in that place really quickly. haha
Finally Wes and Johnny team up. I really think Jay could be an underdog story like Jordan was and still is!
You think Jordan is still an underdog. I feel as a 3x Challenge Champ, I think you can't be considered an underdog anymore. But I agree, Jay is under estimated and I think he'll continue to be the rest of the season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids No i meant to say Jordan at the beginning was and has had success after that introduction season he was really on his way 2 become a legend even tuo my fave is C.T he still is a heck of a competitor and Jay could follow that route aswell maybe too early but i really think he has that quality once he get rid of the butterflies. Sorry for not wording that right😁 Also i meant Jordans dissability makes him the underdog allways but he still beats them and its twice as much entertaining.
@@abdullaahiahmed8924 Okay I totally understand you now. Sorry for the misunderstanding. And I agree, Jay has a good social game and could make it far in Challenges especially if he establishes himself as a strong elimination threat
@@AngelcakeVids It is my fault if i cant articulate aswell as u do, thats why i rather watch your channel instead of even trying to do what u do😊 I also agree and he was pretty good in survivor aswell, im just rooting for his success. Keep up the great content as usual😎
@@abdullaahiahmed8924 I chock it up to some communication gets lost in text. Yeah I liked him alot and hope he can make it far. Thanks, I for sure will have more content coming out very soon.
Asaf has potential. I hope it is not one or done for him. I rather see him back over someone like Hunter or Devin at this point. But if it was Asaf or Derrick or Darell or Eric Nies (who told Scott and Derrick on Challenge Mania that he was ready to come back, I would pick a legend over a rookie. I hope Asaf has a Rogan turnaround in the future!
I'd love for Asaf to come back for another season. I think he knows the people more and maybe he'd feel more comfortable on a second season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I wish the challenge was on Netflix....I thought Johnny girlfriend was in the season?
Supposedly she did get a call but then was dropped by production
@@TheDerpySmiler and I'm not mad at it.
2 piece no bisuit Maybe you are getting mixed up with Johnny’s Girlfriend’s Ex? (Jay)
@2 piece no bisuit Yeah I wished it was on Netflix or any streaming site I pay for already. And I didn't know Morgan was supposed to be on this season. But I'm kinda fine with just Bananas and Jay being on the season together having to deal with one another. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Thanks for the recap! Love that my Survivor Jay won the challenge! All those immunity challenges on Survivor trained him well. Hate Bananas, love Wes and CT. I am interested in an alliance between Wes and Bananas, they just need to be more secretive about and maybe eliminate the hugging lol
Yeah right? They hugged right infront of everyone and raised suspicions. Thank you so much for watching and I am so happy you enjoyed the video! I really appreciate it!
wes bannas and CT would make a awesome team
Definitely
@SIDE BROS Hell yeah they would. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Thank god the challenge is back. That being said, baylieghs ego is annoying. I hope she gets out quickly.
I am so happy The Challenge is back. My Wednesday nights were already jam packed but I'll gladly take on more if it means The Challenge is back on my tv. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Saggy c and Bayleaf annoy
me so much. I hope they loose. I’ve disliked them since big brother
💯
“Saggy C” “Bayleaf” lol the way you spelled their names makes me laugh
This episode was really good!! I happy to see the Johnny and Wes team up! I wonder if anyone is the house knows about their alliance! I’m really excited to see Fessy this season. He seems like he has a lot of potential!
I think some people are getting suspicious after that hug. Why did they do that out in the open? Fessy looks strong. I have high hopes for him after this first episode. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Now that they know about NEEDING to go into and elimination, the guys probably wish they didn’t put in those two rookie boys against each other. Now there are less perceived “ layups” to choose to go into an elimination with.... The girls will have a much easier time . The lady beasts’ have a lot of mediocre girls to chose from: Like Aneesa and the HolyTrinity and they still have the rookies as their perceived “layups” to choose from too. It’s gonna take quite a few episodes before the matchups are gonna start getting good. This the season I would have liked to see killa Kam, Laurel, Cara Marie, or even ninja’s annoying ass . So I can see more even matchups.
The girl rookies (other than Jen(?)) Seem to be physically and mentally strong. I don't see them being layups. The only downside is they haven't done this show so it's up in the air on how they'll fair in an elimination. Honestly I think they have a good female cast for eliminations other than Nany and Ashley. The rest of the vets have proven to hold their own in eliminations. This would be a good format to see Kam and Laurel in action though as they always show out for eliminations.
That's a great point. Now the guys wished they would've gone up against Asaf or maybe taken a bigger shot early. I can see a strong female maybe wanting to step up or see if they can persuade the tribunal into sending them into the elimination in exchange for an alliance. Like say Jenn from Amazing Race gets nominated then Tori, Jenny or Dee then goes up to the tribunal and tries to get thrown in. I can see this being the new strategy going forward this season. And yeah I wished Kam, Laurel and Cara was on this season to see more of where everyone stands. Thanks for watching and commenting this great point. I really appreciate it!
I think it's a good thing that Wes and Johnny work together. Last season their rivalry tore the group apart. It hurts them more going against each other now. What Jordan said in the confessional is true. Holding on to pass rivalry from what 10 years ago is crazy. They act just alike so they should be best friends.
Same. I think the same thing. It's about time and I can't wait to see how it turns out. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I actually think they might play around with the amount of elimimations during the season. Imagine having less eliminations than usual but having purges on challenges? It could be a great ideia for the long hall and actually make eliminations these really big moments.
That's a great idea. I think they tried to make the first elimination really grand with having the guys in the air but I felt it was a bit lackluster as they just needed to hang on longer. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
You’re awesome hahah glad I found this channel!!
Awwww thank you so much. I try to be awesome. I am so happy you found my channel as well. I am glad you enjoyed the video. It's one of the biggest compliments I can get. Thank you for watching and for leaving this very awesome and amazing comment! I really appreciate it!
Angelcake Entertainment I’m a big challenge fan and love seeing other people get so into it just like I do! Keep up the good videos man!
@@aberod2958 The one thing I bring to every video is energy and enthusiasm for The Challenge. I promise you that haha Thank you. I appreciate hearing you like the videos. I have more coming
when they were all complaining about the bunker I started laughing. but Kyle is probably going to back stab Rogan
I'm sorry but where did this feud between Rogan and Kyle start? I am kinda confused. I wouldn't be surprised if Kyle tries to backstab Rogan but Kyle also was looking for advice on how to change how people perceive him as a snake. Maybe he'll keep his word to help his reputation? Maybe, maybe not? We'll have to wait and see. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I’m not a big fan of Bayleigh based off episode 1. She had a lot of personality. If she can back it up this season then maybe my opinion of her will change... lol.
Deonta Alor she’s awful. Her basic go to is screaming fits. Try’s to intimidate, if that doesn’t work, it’s on to “oh poor poor me”, if that doesn’t work, she’s got nothing. But, that’s based on Big Brother. Swaggy (yes he’s a grown man) thinks he’s cunning, but, he’s not. Can’t wait until they’re gone.
Not a fan either. Shes all talk and intimidation. Swaggy needs to stand up for himself instead of having his girl do his talking.
Thomas Walling he does he did on big brother but that got him evicted cause it came off as cocky
God Usopp I don’t watch Big Brother so I wouldn’t know that. Either way, her being so brazen and in a couple, is a recipe for elimination.
Thomas Walling naw trust me they are strong they will go far and everyone seems scared of bailey
I'm loving the start of this season so far. I was so upset with the past challenges, and how people skated by without earning it! Finally, you have to earn your right to go to the finals.
Same. I loved the beginning, love the daily challenge and I love the twist. People are worried it takes away from the political aspect of the game but I'd rather see everyone in an elimination once instead of the same 3 being chosen over and over again. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids I don't have any friends or family who watch MTV the challenge and I subscribed to you because you enjoy the show as much as I do! Plus, I love your commentary and sense of humor. :)
@@Chaucer129 That's exactly why I started making Challenge videos. None of my friends watched it and I wanted to talk to other fans who are obsessed with it as I am. I am so happy you enjoy the videos and like my commentary/sense of humor. This is like the biggest compliment ever in my opinion. I look forward to hearing more of your thoughts as the season progresses!
Love bnans and gingerbreadman working together!! They finally aren't letting old grudges affect their gameplay maybe they'll actually do well this season!!
One can only hope. Jordan kinda foreshadowed it by saying you can't make it far if you don't let grudges go. Maybe that's a good sign. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids bro you keep pumping out the great survivor and challenge content I'll be here!!
@@jordanrector1184 Awww you so awesome. I am working hard on these videos and hearing you like them means a lot to me. I got more content coming very very soon.
Finally Wes and Bananas on one side. Let’s see how long it lasts. Hopefully they go most of the season as I’m sure there will be bumps in the road for both of them. Great first episode. Nany!!!! I have to agree with you Drew that you don’t know how long you have in the house, so go for it, but seriously she needs to get her head in the game. Ashley is going to end up gunning for the Jenna, Kailey, Nany alliance so it will be fun to watch then go at Ashley. Great first episode and great first Vid Drew!!!
Yeah who knows how long this truce shall last. I loved this first episode. I hope the season keeps this hype up. I think ever since Ashley took the money in Final Reckoning and being the top paid Challenger will always paint a target on her back. Thank you so much I am so happy you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Super team! I hope they both make the final.
We have to see what happens. If only they could've done this earlier in their careers, they may both could've had more wins. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Im so glad tj flipped the script where they really dont have a choice .
You wanna win?you gotta play fair in square
Exactly. This season is gonna be fireworks and whoever wins the final it should feel more deserved as all of them would have won an elimination to get there. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
They're back!!! This was amazing!! TJ now drives tanks. Someone has to stop BananWes - And Nany w/ her kiss of death!
It's anyone's game. Best twist ever! Can not wait to watch the rest of the season!! Let's go!❤😂💥😭💪
You sound as hyped as I am to see the next episode. TJ and those tanks was awesome. I was trying to come up with a team name for them and I was between Wananas or Bes...not my strong suit. I can't wait for episode 2! So excited! Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids 😄🤣👍 Wananas is great. So pumped for this season!
@@T_Ix I'm not the best at naming things but now I want Wananas on a shirt and them two underneath hugging lol
@@AngelcakeVids I'd buy that t- shirt! 🤣😂
@@T_Ix Same. I need to patent it
Johnny and Wes are Friends What 😱
My exact reaction hahaha Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I’m actually so excited to see bananas and Wes work together! I hope CT teams up with them too!
That would be a great OG team up. Pops will most likely stay on the fence but what a team up with would be. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It is about time that Wes and Bananas are working together!!
I know right? They pretty much know each other the most from all the seasons they've done. They might as well join forces. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Not to be the biggest dork of all time but all of them answered the math questions correctly. They were going just left to right while they should have done the division first. Just sayin
I saw this critique all over twitter and I agree with you. But if producers told them to just go left to right or gave them the thumbs up when they put the numbers up that's on them. Whether they follow pemdas or not. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Pretty dope to jump right into the action, plus that daily was a good combo of brains and brawn. Then that elimination was sweet. Probably a solid 8/10 for me. Honestly i thought the last couple seasons have been to political so it’s a nice change to see it focus on the action again.
Yes I feel the same exact way. So much about numbers and circumventing eliminations. I wonder if Paulie flopping in the finals last season pissed off production and now making people go into the eliminations are a reason because of it. I am so excited for more action and bigger daily challenges. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
So excited that everybody has to go into an elimination since eliminations are the best part of the show. A little annoyed that Bananas and Wes are trying to convince us they just now get able to get along like they haven’t been coworkers for like 10 yrs 🙄 but overall I enjoy this cast as a group.
I love the twist as well. And I agree, they secretly have liked each other and have been on friendly terms. it's like WWE where they play it up every season to turn heel. I too enjoy the cast and the first ep. Can't wait for the next one. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Angelcake Entertainment oh no problem thank you for your content. Its always nice to see someone who turns their passion into a productive product. Who do you see winning this season?
@@jonnycolucci7683 Awww thank you. Hearing how much you are enjoying the channel and videos really means a lot to me. I think it's too early to tell. Rogan and Jenny did great in the first challenge but we have such a long game ahead of us. A single DQ or elimination could be the one misstep that takes a strong competitor out.
Angelcake Entertainment I feel that. I think it may depend on how long the producers have this game go on for too since they’re trying to get that competition/drama balance who’s head is just gonna leave the game ❤️
Fessy did really well in this first challenge and looks like a force to be reckoned with. Rogan and dee backed up their previous challenge win with displaying very strong first performances. Jenny is a beast and a very intimidating threat to win it all.
Asaf doesn’t seem like the sharpest tool in the shed. First off he was doing a very intense warm up before the elimination and then in the elimination he completely exhausted his arms by not letting them hang loose on the bar. Props to him for getting it in with Nany haha.
I don’t think Wes and bananas will last that long. People will catch on and they will get thrown in soon.
Very astute observations. I think Fessy, Jenny, Dee and Rogan will be tough to bring down this season. And I have no clue how this Bananas and Wes situation will go. It could be good or just fall apart fast. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I think this house is one of the coolest they have every been in its so different from the norm!
I love the change up for the house this season. It fits the times and it's not just another mansion. Also it's one I would like to live with. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
"These math problems are no joke".... no they are a joke and the fact that they didn't even follow the correct order of operations means production doesn't even know simple maths.
I meant they weren't a joke in the way that they were taking out a ton of the Challengers. And production must've told them to go from left to right instead of the real Order of Operations. That's the only thing that makes sense of why everyone did them all not the right way. Thanks for watching and commenting! Also love the San Junipero episode of Black Mirror. It's one of my top 3 favorite episodes.
@@AngelcakeVids Yeah totally get that maths to these Challengers is no joke. Big survivor fan here so hoping Jay can get far.
@@kamakaziemelon Yeah they'd rather work out their biceps then their brains lol I hope Jay makes it far as well. I can't lie, these rookies look like they can do some damage this season.
I don’t consider people like Jenny and Rogan “veterans” ... idk they’ve literally done ONE season so I just don’t think they deserve that title yet 🤷🏼♀️
In the Challenge “Gauntlet 2” and “Gauntlet 3” people who only did one challenge were put on the Rookies team.
Jonny Colucci exactly!! Thank you
Order of operations means nothing on the challenge. 🤣
Hahaha for real. Off screen they must've told them to just go left to right. Because Tori had to divide 63 by 2 if they actually had to do OoO. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I wish I had cable... thanks to you tho I feel like I’m watching
I hope the video did an adequate enough job to help paint the full picture. I am happy I can help with the Challenge cravings. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Wes getting upset with Asaf was all part of his act. Wayyyyy too out of character for him lmaoooo
It made me so confused. You have to be right because Wes is so strategic that it felt completely out of place. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
8.5 awesome episode
Yeah I thought it was a stellar first episode as well. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
jays starrett dee
Aree those two your favorites? Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Do you think it is better to go into elimination at the beginning or towards the end because you have to go?
I think at the beginning. More options and by that time someone has a better shot of slipping. If you go in at the end you might be going into an elimination against someone who already won one and has confidence. That's my opinion. What do you think?
Honestly, how the hell can you divide 63 by 2? That was Tori problem.
They screwed her
Tarence McElroy she probably didn’t get the 63 part right. Of course they wouldn’t give her a number that wasn’t whole because there would be no way for her to rack it on the hooks.
@@TO-kk7xf I thought the same thing. That's why I think theres something that the producers told them off screen to just go left to right instead of the order of operations. Everyone is getting hooked up on it but I feel if everyone was not doing the way math teachers taught in school it must be something the producers said. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@Uncle_elroy4 When I first saw it I was confused as well. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
12/10 is my rating of the premiere lol
I REALLY like the format of needing to win an elimination to get into the final. However, I feel like people won't be trying as hard in the daily challenges. Since winning the daily challenge places you in the tribunal, then those people in the tribunal automatically are out of the running to be selected from the "losing" challengers as the person up for elimination. I feel like they should have provided an incentive to winning a daily challenge to eliminate that issue. Also, people will be campaigning hard to go into the elimination.
I like that Wes and Bananas are working together. It'll definitely be interesting to see how that works out. I just have a feeling that once people catch on to their alliance that they'll put them up against each other. Which, based on previews, makes sense since there was a preview where TJ mentioned something like "finally you two are going against each other in an elimination"
I'd agree with that improper fraction rating. I too love the twist for this season. I heard that as well from some people. I think being in the tribunal helps give you a ton of power which can help build bridges for later in the game. But throwing comps can be an issue or a loop hole if they haven't thought it through. Yeah after them hugging out in the open raising suspicions in ep 1, I can see people wising up putting them against each other. This season should be good. I hope it keeps riding this hype train all season long. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
bananas and wes COULD work but it probably will not
You don't think they can collaborate enough with each other? Who do you think would turn on who first? Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I was wondering what TJ had that clipboard for
I think he was taking "role" but I think it was mainly for aesthetic. A reason for him to be there as the plane arrived and for him to be first on the scene. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I feel as if Bayleigh comes out too strong. Like you even think about doing anything bad to swaggy she comes and just beats that person DOWN. I think people are definitely gonna try to get either her or swaggy out at one point.
She's annoying. I hope one of the girls beats her ass and takes her out of the competition.
@Nekolu Cielto If they want to make a final they'll have to each go into an elimination. It seems people want to work with Bayleigh for now. I think she comes off strong and if she can win some tribunals she can make it far. We have to wait and see what happens. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I liked this opener and I also liked blood lines & vendettas also the preview after the episode was really good with the Kayla saying she has a boyfriend back home but she kissed bear
Yeah I agree. That preview gave me chills. It was so good and now I'm just sitting here waiting for ep 2. I need my Challenge fix! Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I have a question do you get out if you don’t have a skull by the final or do you do an elimination battle against someone else without the skull
That is a very good question. I have no idea. I'd love to see someone wait until the end to see what actually happens. Thanks for watching and making me think! I really appreciate it!
I liked Asaf, but he was a little too nice. However I was really annoyed by Wes this episode.
Ryan TBH asaf was from are you the one ?rite??
biscuits yes he was
@@2piecenobisuit763 that. And So You Think You Can Dance, Celebrity Big Brother Isreal, and Celebrity Ninja Warrior
@@SurvivorNerdTTV But what is the deal with not saying he was on AYTO? He talked about all the shows he was in except fo this one and I have the feeling MTV is kind of hiding it too, that's weird...🤔
Lol he was on teen mom a long time ago, as Farrah's date.
They rigged it for rogan to win...because they didn't even show rogan doing the math part or dee
You think they really rigged it? Eh Rogan did really bad at trivia last season now that I think about it. I have more faith in Dee doing math than Rogan. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids 97% percent sure they rigged it for rogan and dee to win but jenny was stronger and faster than dee. They didn't show rogan or dee at the math part or puzzle...and rogan didn't even seem happy at his 1st solo win challenge like he knew he was gonna win
@@meltingicecube1013 Good points. And Jenny seems like she's gonna be a beast this season. She is like the whole package
Wes and Bananas, Teaming at long last, I can't wait to see how long this'll last before they try to get each other out if that does happen, I'm gonna have to see more challenges and eliminations before I decide who's a great player because you could've been amazing in a previous season by winning a bunch of eliminations only to be taken out in your first elimination of a new season so I will wait and see before seeing who I think is great at The Challenge in this season. Knowing that Jay is a rock climber made it clear to me he'd win elimination since rock climbers are good at upper body strength (just look at American Ninja Warrior for examples) so I know holding on wouldn't be too hard for him so Asaf winning seemed like a long shot, although I hope to see more of Jay to see if he's got any other strengths. I like the twist of how you need to win elimination in order to get into the finals because now you want to go into elimination so you can have a chance to win $1,000,000 but the only problem is that you don't have a choice in who you're facing so you better hope you're up against someone inferior to you. This was a good first episode but me and everyone else cannot wait to see what Wes and Bananas do as a team! I'll be rooting for them for sure, go team...Uhhh, I guess I'll call them team Rivals? Yeah that sounds fitting and good enough, go Team Rivals!
I totally understand where you are coming from. I can see people in the nomination ceremony seeing who's voted in and then trying to persuade the tribunal to put them in. Maybe like put me in now and I'll put you in later. Or being voted in by the house and then have faith in the tribunal to put someone you want in. I can't wait to see how this twist changes up the house. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
This first episode was awesome
I agree. I hope the intensity and hype stays high this whole season. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Is it just the quarantine or is drew a total snack?!
Hahahaha Idk about all that. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Probably just my quarantine brain😂 oh and no homo of course! lol
@@AMar090 Hey, no discrimination here. I just may not see my snackability as some other people may see me haha
MY BABY JAY! 😍
He stays alive and will be here for another week with a women's elimination next week. He looked good in his first elimination. Thanks for watching and commenting! i really appreciate it!
10/10
Rogan and Kyle are friends now? Rogan,Fessy,Jenny and Dee are the stars of first episode and Jay killed 🔥🔥 I hope Asaf don’t quit cuz I think he could be great in future seasons,just need be more prepared,he got heart ... I don’t like how people feel about voting Swaggy C cuz of Baileigh,they are both rookies and rookies need to be tested it’s fair call I guess 🤷🏽♂️
I'd like to see Asaf back on The Challenge. I think if they are perceived as a threat and people don't want to vote them in then that's for the competitors in the house. For him to make it into the finals he'll have to go in eventually. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
The men's math problem was something easy!!!
Were they easier than the women's? I have to go back and check. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Good stuff man
I'm trying! I am so happy to hear you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
My highlight of the episode was Wes vs Asaf🤣.
What was with that? Wes was all up in his feelings and just went off on him. I get he doesn't want his name said but I felt that kinda was over the top. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
the wes-bananas alliance isn't going to last long and everybody knows it. also,does anybody knows where to watch the challenge outside the us or uk?
It’s on amazon prime , philo and some say on iTunes but I don’t know where on iTunes
The intro 😂😂😂
I am glad you enjoyed it. I try to have fun with all the intros I make. I am glad I could give you a laugh. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I’m really just wondering will people throw theirselves in to purgatory to get that win now?
Maybe. Or they will be bartering to get thrown in. Possibly a I'll throw you in if you throw me in kind of deal. i can see that happening in future episodes. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Angelcake Entertainment i dont know I think of it was me I would probably still try to wait until it’s close til the end to go in🤷🏿♂️
@@LuQaBras1 I can see pros and cons for both. If you wait at least you know you are closer to the finals and may not be thrown in again. And you could get someone who is injured like when Theo went up against a bruised and battered Kyle in the Hall Brawl
Also I’m very tired of it always be rookies thrown to the frontline first every season.
Same here. I wish they could shape the game to where it would benefit vets to go in earlier in the season over rookies. I don't think having to win an elimination will be that big of a motivator.
@Deonta Alor For sure. And I'm sure the men are upset they put two rookies in now knowing the twist for this new season. I'm sure the women will have a different strategy for their first elimination.
@Emani Blue it's the Challenge I don't think anyone deserves anything and as last season showed "earning your stripes" is a total joke.
Yes!!! Wes and Bananas!!! The Red Banana!!!
Also, am I gonna be the first to say it? Nany has the Bad Luck “Clam?” Basically, f#ck Nany and you gonna be eliminated!!!
I don't think Wes & Bananas are going to play eachother. I think the game is going to play them. I think there will be some trust issues and a few shakeups but I do think this will be a genuine alliance. I think they are going to have a lot of power and a lot of numbers. I think Wes will get Swayleigh on their side. I think Rogan, Dee, Kyle, Mattie, Nany, Kaliah, Jenna, Aneesa, Melissa, Jenny, Bear & Josh are all going to be a part of their alliance. I think Cory & Nelson will also be close with Wes but won't fully trust him or Bananas but both will be strategically aligned only to watch and be protected until they make a power move of their own and try to take control of the game.
I think CT and Fessy will play a neutral game aligned with no one but won't cross the Wes/Bananas alliance.
Ashley, Big T, Jay, Jordan & Tori are going to be the outsiders trying to break up their alliance and it's going to cost them all.
I think Wes & Bananas but mainly Wes will orchestrate getting Jordan against Fessy and once that happens is when I think Cory & Nelson are going to double cross Wes & Bananas either Cory & Nelson are going to make the tribunal. In fact I think Cory will make the tribunal and add Nelson to it and they both are going to either vote in Bananas or Wes and thats when the rest of the house is going to throw in the other so they can go against eachother and put the two biggest players against eachother.
You have to really listen to those audio voiceovers in the trailer and pay attention to the little details.
Bananas says I'm surrounded by liars, scumbags and crybabies. That tells me he's going to be sent in blindsided. Also I find it interesting Bananas recently said in an interview Cory would be his ideal person to be partnered up with. That tells me Cory is going to make some power moves in this season and he obviously does some things to have Bananas say in the future I want to work with this guy.
The Bear/Kailah relationship is not going to be good for the Wes/Bananas alliance or any of their games and it's going to blow up
Mattie vs Big T is going to have to do about Mattie following Wes & Bananas which Big T is not going to do. When Mattie is talking to someone saying if you're not good mentally you won't be good in this game is very interesting and there's a number of people she could be talking about.
Now what a lot of people failed to realize is Wes was blowing up and making a scene on purpose. He knew he wasn't going in but his blowup at Asaf was a performance. He wasn't upset or worried in the slightest and I love how he just gave a bunch of bullshit to the tribunal. Bananas however screwed up by hugging him. Everyone noticed! Bananas shouldn't have done that in fact Wes & Bananas need to be acting like they still hate eachother and if I were them i would form my own alliance and banning them together. Basically you have the people that Wes assembles & the peopke that Bananas assembles and use them both but with only Wes & Bananas knowing what's going on in both groups.
Rogan is clearly going to fuck Dee over. I can see that as clear as day. Rogan is going to fuck Dee to save his own ass.
Jay will be an easy target and I see him going into multiple eliminations. He's going to try and play both sides & it's going to bite him in the ass.
Jenny is going to dominate this season. She's not going to get involved with the drama or politics too much. Her and Kacey are just going to be very neutral in the background dominating in dailies and eliminations playing a very under the radar dominant game.
Kyle is going to be Wes/Bananas secret weapon. He is going to hide behind them the entire time and it's going to benefit him more than Wes & Bananas.
Ashley is going to be the first one to figure out that Wes & Bananas are working together & they are going to target her. She tells Big T there's an alliance I need to earn you about later and the perception is she's talking about the Nany, Jenna & Kailah alliance but no it's the Wes/Bananas alliance. Ashley knows and she will put a huge target on her back because of it and so will Big T by association.
Dee says their not your friends Rogan. Rogan is going to align with Cory & Nelson & he's going to be the deciding factor that puts Wes & Bananas against eachother. So he's going to fuck Dee & fuck over Wes & Bananas.
That's all I got so far. I could be wrong but from what I've seen in the trailers and the first episode that's everything I'm predicting and picking up on at the moment.
Wow that is alot. I read your last line and laughed when you said "That's all I got so far." This was very detailed and documented. I really appreciate you taking the time to give us your detailed thoughts. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I like the twist but I dont at the same time because if you have to go into an elimination then what's the point in winning daily challenges. But besides that this season looks 🔥🔥
John Gilliam I somewhat agree, but earning the power could still be beneficial to their game... For example, it might be better for a strong player to get in first against a weak player, then start winning daily challenges to stay out of going in again. And for more strategic players, winning daily challenges might help them control and manipulate who goes in and they therefore don’t have to go against the people they strategized to throw in/eliminate. Either way, this twist is gonna change the dynamic of the way this game is played immensely, I can’t wait to see how this plays out.
@John Gilliam I agree. I've heard this brought up by several people. I hope they have something in place to dissuade people from throwing daily challenges. I guess we'll see what happens. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@ohemgeeitspriscilla That's a great point. I think this will be how people see and play the game. I like the twist this season and I can't wait to see how it all plays out. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Will MTV enforce copyright if you record your live reaction every Wednesday without the picture in picture? and maybe chop up your favorite highlights. That could be fun.💪
When I first started making these videos I used to try to make highlights with the episode and do reaction videos to that week's episodes but MTV and Viacom are quick with the copyright strike. They wouldn't if I just film myself watching the episode but idk how that'd work. I would love to have more live streaming capabilities but I don't have the money just yet. Thanks for watching and the suggestions! I really appreciate it!
I lovveeee the idea of having to win an elimination to go to the final since u know how I feel about Rogan’s win! I feel like this season the vibe was kinda of different maybe it was the new editing or setting something. Buttt I really didn’t like when Bailey ( I know that not how you spell it) came after jay for bringing up swaggy because jay wasn’t doing it maliciously , he was trying to prove the point the point of the “rookie” excuse should go for swaggy too. And I mean also you should expect when that coming into “THE CHALLENGE “ and not be defensive but look if she let him go into the elimination. He could’ve gotten skull and a key to the finals. And the hanging elimination didn’t excite me or catch my interest. I didn’t like it. I think the challenge was trying to give a more “grand “ effect . If you get what am trying to say
Yeah I love the twist and all the different strategies that are gonna be implemented to try to get into eliminations this season. And yeah the hanging challenge fell flat to me as well. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I give you a 6 with respect!
6? 6 out of what? 6? 5? lol Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
I was waiting on this video
I hope it met your expectations haha Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Angelcake Entertainment I love your vids bro bananas all the way tho
@@jakeemlaguerre1187 Thank you so much for saying you love the videos. I put alot of work in them and hearing you like them is a big compliment.
Does anyone know where I can watch the gauntlet 3 back? I can find every season exact for that one..
2020 is not going well..
You can say that again. But The Challenge ep was good at least. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Solid 8
I concur with your rating. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
Hopefully bananas and Wes act like try hate each other so no one will really notice
Yeah they need to make things look back to the status quo between them. That hug was so off kilter and brought up some suspicions. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
asaf was annoying. glad he was gone first
Also did not do his homework for the Challenge. Hooking up day one is a curse. It puts a target on your back especially if you are a rookie.
Osayawe Agbontaen that was totally the del for organ
I mean Rohan
Organic
Frick it I give up
Sad ppl cant watch it outside of usa
You can! just get a vpn and change the country to Canada. Then type mtv.ca and find "The Challenge: Total Madness"
I'm from the UK and I've been doing this for years
I like the whole new going into elimination to be able to be qualified for finals but on the other hand is sucks for the good competitors that keep winning and winning challenges. What are you supposed to suck at a challenge to go to the elimination to qualify for the finals that’s not fair either... but i rather have this because if we had this last season, Paulys bumm ass wudve been down there n we all know when he goes to elimination hes Mr.Redemption House lmaooo
I love the twist this season and I wonder how it will effect the strategy of the game and how everyone plays. I can't wait for tonight's episode. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It looks like it two me between Johnny bananas and was are friends I know,for I know take things mtvs the challenge house tv show its heather
In the end of ep 1 did anyone notice 2 girls making out(in the season trailer)? It looks like kaycee and kayla but they're both in relationships
I'll have to rewatch it again. I remember seeing Nany and Asaf kissing, Dee and maybe Jay kissing and Kailah and Bear kissing. Idk about 2 girls. I'll check it out tho. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
It was after the end credits they showed a season trailer (I dont think it was nany and asaf because whoever was kissing both had straight hair)
@@YuupWereCool So I rewatched the end credit season thing. If you are talking about the people kissing at the bar, I believe it's Dee and Jay. That's if we are talking about the same scene
Ahh ok I see that now! I thought it was kaycee because she always wears bandanas not Jay 😅
@@YuupWereCool I think it maybe a dress up party. Rogan has some heavy eyeliner in one super trailer when it pans over to him. But I am happy it's not Kaycee because she does have a significant other back home and I don't want to see more people cheating
I didn’t care about asaf leaving that what happens when nany kisses u. Two rookies should happen first elimination 🤷🏾♂️
I thought Aneesa talking about Nany having the kiss of death was so funny. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
My favorite females
Bayleigh
Melissa
Kahila
Mattie
And I actually like the new bunk house thing and the thing Johnny and west I don't see it lasting and I wonder what girls r going to be pick for elimination next week I think bayleigh and big t and bayleigh wins that's my thoughts
Those are some great people to be rooting for. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
@@AngelcakeVids your very welcome
Blah this wes&bananas thing is staged & wont last. Congrats to rogan for winning the first daily. What a way to prove himself. Also congrats to fessy for being the only rookie to finish all 3 stages. To jenny for winning on the girls’ side. Congrats to jay for his elimination win but the tribunal shouldve picked kyle🤷🏽♂️.
It's a promising first episode. Alot is built up and we'll have to see how this game shakes out. I can't wait to see how the twist shakes up the game. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
sit down T-T
I do in my Friday Total Madness videos. I give people me standing up and sitting down. I like to give variety. Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
This season is already wack and tacky. This new rule about having to go into elimination to be in the final is completely bullshit. It ruins the whole concept of the challenge and what it stood for. Going into elimination doesn't mean you deserve to be in a final, you could win a elimination just by luck. You prove yourself in the daily challenges , elimination is just for you to get yourself back into the competition. This season ruins the point of trying to win a daily challenge if you have to go into elimination to qualify for the final, the tribunal especially doesn't make any sense if the point is to go into elimination. Thanks to the new cry baby fans , y'all have officially ruined the challenge.
