The girls drive up, annoyed that Tyler is there, and they tell Shain that they’re not going to the lake if Tyler is going. He refuses to apologize to them, so Shain and Joey tell Tyler he’s going to stay home if he won’t do what they want. He goes to the girls’ car, and admits he hooked up with Ashley, apologizes for lying about it, and they give him permission to go on the trip.
As the girls drive to the lake, they talk about a mythical ramp that Blue Foot has built, and Katie (she’s really racking up the brownie points tonight, by the way,) points out that it’s sketchy that there’s a guy named Blue Foot. Who goes off into the woods for days. By himself. She tells us that this homemade waterpark looks totally unsafe.
She’s not lying.
So here’s the deal: someone (MTV doesn’t show us who, so I’m going on the assumption that they actually hired a professional stunt coordinator for this one) drives a 4-wheeler down a homemade slip ‘n slide, trailing someone behind in a water tube. At some point, the 4-wheeler goes somewhere else (again, we don’t see that part,) and the tube-ridine person flies over the ramp, and into the water at approximately a ten-foot drop. Tyler is up first, and he makes impact with the water on his shoulder. Blue Foot is next, and hits the water on his ass.
Yes it is. Among other things.
Joey goes next, and perfectly hits the water with his heels. Anna goes, and has what looks like an epic (and painful) belly flop. Ashley, while waving around her bikini straps (See? She wasn’t really mad at Tyler – she just wanted to separate him from Katie, she’s still trying to get with him,) nominates Shain to go next. He gets a terrible nosebleed. Cara tells us that since everyone is pretty well injured, they’re done for the day.
The gang is hanging out around a bonfire, while Shain tries to get everyone to eat his squirrel. Ew. And not a euphemism. The girls get sentimental about how much they’ll miss each other when summer is over. Shae asks Joey what he’s going to do with himself, and maybe he’ll get a job. As Salwa toasts the summer they’ve had (hey girl, where have you been and where is your gorgeous boyfriend?,) Shain and Joey set up Shain’s silly demonstration for Cara. There’s an icky moment where Tyler sits down at the fire between Katie and Ashley, and Ashley alludes to having a threesome.
If you like it, spread it!:

Katie’s freak out was absolutely hilarious. It reminded me of that chick who would always scream during the Denver season of The Real World.
Tyler has got to be the dumbest person on the planet. Or he is legit mentally challenged to ask Ashley to not tell anyone when there are cameras IN HIS CAR! At first I gave him the benefit of the doubt and thought maybe he forgot about them, but no he’s a moron.
I also think you worded something wrong. The pig isn’t equal with Shain intellectually. I’d bet everything I own that pig is way smarter.
I demand to see more Salwa in the next season! It drives me nuts that she’s obviously there for everything, yet they never put her on TV when she’s stripping, not that I’m complaining. I just want to see her more often. Also the fact that she was willing to drink the deer juice in the bonus episode won her some points from me. That took guts.
Excellent recaps Dashley! Can’t wait to see what you’ll have to say in the future!
Why was Cara even involved in the Tyler/Ashley/Katie discussion? She was acting like she was the victim in the whole thing. I was just waiting for Tyler to tell her to shut up because the entire discussion did not involve her. Did anyone notice how Tyler’s forehead injury was subject to the MTV edit. The editors wanted us to believe Tyler had dinner with Katie & family, then the next day slept with Ashley. I am guessing it was edited for drama. Like Tyler and Ashley slept together earlier in the filming but it wouldn’t add anything, so they kept it around until he started hooking up with Katie. That is why the producers had Cara there, because they were not sure where they were going to edit it in when they finished editing.
I think the ‘holler’ is owned by Shane’s family, ‘holler’ is like their farm/compound. I think Shane and Joey live in that one place together, Grandma Gandi down the street, Ma & Pa Gandi on the other side. MTV should do ‘Gandi Holler’. That would be epic. And lot of subtitles. Is
I looked up a British reality show on Wikipedia and it was labeled as “a structured reality television series”. That is the classiest description of scripted heavily edited ‘reality’ show.
Thank for for the great recaps. Hope there is another season, soonish.
Anyone else notice that when Joey was driving the back hoe thing (sorry, I don’t know what it’s actually called) he would have facial hair in one scene, then the next scene it would be gone, then back again? It’s like MTV isn’t even trying this time. Haha.
Salwa was busted over the weekend for possesion with intent to sell for heroin and oxycodone. She was found hiding in a shed with two guys who were not featured on the show. Here is a link:

Caligal…..I saw that too!
There were some internet rumors a few weeks back that Courtland (Teen Mom Janelle’s scumbag) visited someone from Buckwild on this way back down from Michigan……and supposedly the police were tipped off about a car with Michigan plates was delivering the heroin to Salwa and her crew. Coincidence???
either way…..heroin and oxy are bad news. I am afraid for her, what the hell?
OH MY GOOOOOD thanks for sharing Caligal. I predict that this is going to make Ed cry.
I am sobbing indeed! Oh Salwa. Why’d you do it?!
If true Caligal that is effed up and twisted. What really sucks is she is looking at a felony. Will not be easy to get out. Salwa do that stupid shit here in California – we have so many criminals you could be out in a day or two if convicted.
Ed – she needs a knight in shinning armor……
Let’s hope Najee was not with her.
Dashley – (speaking about lost footage episode) I can’t believe the amount of hair Anna lost in her fight. WTF woman. Where was Ashley and why wasn’t she apart of the lost video? Same with Katie.
Carol your explanation of the Holler would help me with the living arrangements. Didn’t I see a “Joey and Tyler’s place”? If so why didn’t they ever film there? Where did Katie drop Tyler off after dinner at her place?
I must be old fashioned because I would not be okay with Ashley and Tyler. Where is Ashley’s loyalty to her friend?
They own SUVs, so why were the girls cramped in Anna’s car for the trip to Blue Foots?
Okay, Labowner, I’m going to do my best here:
Oh, it’s true about Salwa. Yikes. And as far as I can tell, Najee was not with her, because he’s been tweeting all day (the rest of the cast too) about not judging good people until you have the whole story. Salwa, meanwhile, is silent, because she’s in jail.
Yeah, Anna is like the Hulk and Bruce Banner. She is the most logical, levelheaded one of the bunch… until she’s got a little alcohol in her, and good God, someone better have a tranquilizer gun handy. Ashley was probably off somewhere staring creepily as a couple was about to have sex (see: Shae and Joey), wishing she was a lesbian (see: Cara and her ex), or screwing a friend’s boyfriend (see: Tyler and Katie.) Ashley is seriously creepy guys, I’m not even kidding.
I suppose it’s possible, as Carol suggests, that the guys all live in the Holler, but what I do know for sure is that Shain was living with his parents and Tyler and Joey were sharing a place, but I don’t know where that place was. And they did film there – remember when Shae woke Joey up to discuss the state of their relationship?
I have a feeling no one is okay about the Ashley and Tyler thing, but they all have contracts with MTV to live happily ever after by the end of the season. It’s possible, again like Carol suggested, that Ashley slept with Tyler back before he had even met Katie’s mom, but even still it’s gross and weird that Ashley wouldn’t be upset about it until Katie found out and got angry. But they all have to play nice if they want to stick around – the producers of this show clearly want a little drama to happen, but not so much that it takes away from the fun of the crazy stunts and redneck lifestyle.
How’d I do?
Awesome Dashley and don’t forget the weird, lame party, drunk guy Ashley brought back with her to the house. I wonder if either she is sowing her wild oats (I had a crazy, hey who else can I screw summer) or she is hoping one guy will stay after she puts out. May be daddy is out of the picture. There is something wrong with her.
Love Anna, I just can’t believe how much losing that much hair had to hurt. I take it the dark color hides that massive loss? That was a good couple of inches of hair both ways. OUCH
Crap Najee keeps getting better. Damn you man.
We’re not dealing with brain surgeons here. They gotta do what they gotta do to get paid.
I wondered how Salwa was the seemingly the only one with her own trailer.
I just saw this: http://perezhilton.com/2013-04-01-buckwild-shain-gandee-dead#.UVnhMoUQ07A
It was also reported on CNN (http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/01/showbiz/buckwild-star-death/?hpt=hp_t2).
Shain was found dead! He was one of the few from Buckwild that I actually liked. As dumb as MTV reality shows can be, his family seemed very close and real.
I am guessing there will be no season 2.
