I am glad to see special needs Ruthie get thrown off. Now, she can get help managing her Downs Syndrome.

EvilBeth looks very freakish to me, like she got some discount plastic surgery in Mexico?

Sadly, not a lot of crotch shots this episode. : (

KH

Finally, an evil bitch we love to hate. I hope Beth run roughshod over those beyotches and make them ALL feel the wrath of her eyebrows.

Likewise, I hope Alton make them feel the wrath of his powerful thighs. How phyne he is. Yes I know it's tiresome but so true. There is no words for how gorgeous this man is.

Beth sucks!

Am I the only one that notices MJ's crooked mouth and Derrick's messed up top lip? I missed the last few minutes, did a short bus come and pick up Ruthie?

I was BLOWN when Beth became El Capitan. WTF is with all that eye makeup she wears? As if the eternally surprised-looking eyebrows aren't enough.... it's completely unnerving!
What does the future hold for the next female Gauntlet? A head-to-head showdown of Beth and Montana? Whoa. Could be disturbing.

B-side you Rock!!!!! It's the little things that you find that amuse me. Beth/evil clown whore will take over that island and man handle all that cross her path. I love this shit!!!!

It was bittersweet to see Beth win. I wasn't expecting it. Glad to see her kick Ruthie's ass though...she needed it. Montana was just sucking up to Beth so she wouldn't vote her into the Gauntlet next week.

Beth = Poser.

it feels scary and frightening to identify with awful beth in any way, but it's nice to see a girl who is not a size 2 gettin her run on.

I do agree with that, Leah3t, but I didn't understand the whole thing to begin with. I think Montana looks bigger than Beth-

Doesn't Ruthie have a strong resemblance to Beetlejuice from the Howard Stern show?

Creepy.

No that you've mentioned it ruplub I see it.

Comment #4 about a short bus picking up Ruthie was so funny I had to give props to tvism ylife for that.

Excellent recap as always, but I am once again disappointed that There and Back is not being recapped, simply because there is SO MUCH in that show that you can make fun of.

hey criscogirl, I watched 'There and Back', you're right it is insane stuff. Who does Ashley Parker Angel think he is? Bad show all around! I encourage everyone to tune in after the Gauntlet.

Ashley Parker Douchbag is not able to identify produce in the supermarket, this is priceless. I mean, its corn on the cob, for Gawd's sake!

RuPlub: Right on, she does look like BeetleJuice from the Stern Show, surprised TVgasm hasn't done a side by side comparison.....

KH

Great Recap! After seeing beth pick "Reverse Tug-Of-War" I knew it was pretty much over for Ruthie. Beth could've just rolled to the flag and won it.

I have never been a big fan of Beth, but seeing the brilliant plan to get rid of her backfire made me laugh really hard. And the stunned faces of the team after they lost Ruthie...PRICELESS.

I have grown to like Ruthie from these challenges (hated her in Hawaii) but I thought it was hilarious for the plan to backfire like that! I am now hoping that the Vets lose every girl mission and that Beth picks them off one by one. I wish this system would have been in place for the first Gauntlet when Road Rules just kept voting Sara in and she kept kicking ass! That would have been awesome for her to have gotten rid of all the people who were trying to get rid of her.

Alton, my chocolate man, I love you! Why are there never pics of Alton???

I was dissapointed to see that Syrus did not shake that melon bootie moneymaker of his. Damn that is a wholelotta man!Oh well, maybe next week!!

Scorpiella- I so remember that and hated the way those assholes treated Sarah. You are exactly right about that system being corupt. If I remember though, Sarah did win the money in the end- which was sweet justice. I really don't want to see Beth go to the end here. She is too much of a bitch, gossip hound, shit starter- what was that shit with Robin. What good could possibly have come from her telling Robin that "jodi Likes Mark" - or whatever the hell it was. I mean, WHY? How did that benefit anyone??
Sorry- got on a rampage for a minute there- But, I just don't like Beth!

Well my roomie just met Beth at some awards pre party in L.A. Apparently she's not as heavy or dermatologically challenged in person. She said she keeps it real because she doesn't like anyone and they know it. She only does the challenges as PR for herself and will be on the next one, too.

Good for her for defeating Ruthie. Its nice to see the underdog win!!

It would've been better if she eliminated Tonya or Veronica though :)

I love how when anyone doesn’t treat the gauntlet with the utmost respect, TJ acts like you just took a shit on his grandmother chest.

I actually mentioned the beetlejuice Ruthie thing before, but B-side isn't a stern listener like me and sg-dub. hes all into book learning and such.

I loved that the Veterans brought the situation upon themselves, and yet none of them had the humility to recognize it. Beth proved herself to be a strong player, and then they voted her in anyway--good for her for beating Ruthie and securing a place on the team (at least for another week). And believe me, I never thought I'd congratulate Beth.

Why no mention of the return of Landon the human mule?!?! That was a perfect opportunity there, that's all I could think about after I saw Landon take control of that rickshaw. Man, too funny. Anticipating B-Side's comments is the best part of watching the show.

Wh-Wha-What?!?! B-Side doesn't listen to Stern? This love affair must end NOW!

EdHill, what are you doing tonight?

Oh, and books are for dummies!

i agree about Beth's eye makeup Krizzatch (#5)-what does she think-I mean, they all eventually are on film looking like booze hags when they get ripped at the end of the night, and she's worried about looking pretty during the challenges? I used "pretty" very loosely here-someone needs to tell her stage makeup doesn't work outside during the day. but I have to give her props for taking out Ruthie & not going down because her team hates her.

I got suckered in to the first segment before a commercial of Ashley's show-I thought it was hilarious how he & his pregnant girlfriend are living with her partying mom. Did anyone see how she was mixing margarits & the middle of the day & was disappointed no one joned her? (Like her pregnant daughter???) Then Ashley comes home to brag about sticking to his producer or someone & her first words are "Let's go celebrate!" (Read-let's hit happy hour before my margarita buzz wears off!)

RAO611 - I am happy to hear that Beth isn't nearly as hideous in person. However, she told your roomie that she does the Challenges for PR purposes? PR for what? I L.O.V.E. love how delusional these reality people are.
