B-side, the terms "unnecessarily harsh" and "Kina" cannot coexist in the same sentence or the universe will implode. Please continue.

Maybe if we're lucky, the next time we have one of these Challenge reunions, Danny will actually be there to reenact his buffoonery in person

I remember reading somewhere (maybe here) that Danny and Mel were taking part in the next challenge in Australia that should be coming on in a few weeks. So I guess we will get to see Danny act like an idiot whenever someone does so much as walk past Mel.

first! so sad to see them go.

Was anyone suprised at how much better Beth looked than during the actual episodes? I mean I'm not saying she looked pretty, but a huge improvement!

Just watched that True Life from last night. Noticed that Wes was on his way to the next challenge. He is one of the all time morons. He should be real good on that challenge!

(a) Kina is pure evil.

(b) i too watched true life last night and did anyone else notice that when tonya was talking about her schedule for the week and the camera cut to her calendar she had spelled Houston wrong? umm... speaking of idiots...

I watched the True Life for about 20 minutes and got too frustrated and changed the channel. What's with Tonya complaining about how much she hates doing all these appearances but she needs the money. It's called getting a job! She's barely interesting now, but after a few more seasons of RW and some new cast members the fans are going to be like "Tonya who?"

Kina is vile and I don't think she's too bright either. It's tough to say with this group but she could be the dumbest one in the bunch. Derrick is no Einstein either.

Cara is incredibly hot.

Didn't Eric Nies pass his jumprope down to one of the younger dudes when he retired? How sad that Mark couldn't come up with something more original.

Wait, what am I saying!!?!??

The clip of Derrick and Aneesa almost made me puke. I've always taken a shine to Derrick since he made friends with the frog in a drunken haze. That with Aneesa was disgusting.

Did you hear when Derrick said something to the effect of "I hope it brings be luck for another 15 years" when Mark gave him his bandanna?

And Robin looks tons better with dark hair.

Okay first of all, I agree about everything you said about Kina. Secondly, I love your blog and I paid homage to your challenge post in my blog about reality TV. You should check it out! It's called Get REALity and it's for an online journalism class at Northeastern! Keep up the good work!!

So what is the consensus for the length of Mark's sabbatical? The Svan says he will return on within 3 of these challenge shows...

Those screen shots of kina give us excellent insight into how she will look when she is old and takin on Jersey by storm in her toyota camry. let's just hope bazooka joe gets out while there is still time.

what an effin biotch kina was, cara and robin were def. hot and brad and alton was pretty chill. "another timmy classic!" CLASSIC! great recap and this season was lame, hope the next ones get better.

Ash (#4), I agree that Beth looked way better on this than she ever did on the challenge. Maybe when Beth saw herself on the show there was some cosmic revelation and she went to a make-up professional.
B-Side, you may do all the Kina bashing that you want, 'cause the girl deserves it.
I never thought I would say this but I hope the Skank patrol shows up in the next challenge- this one was so boring. Of course the theme needs to be better. And the challenges need to be better as well. And the host. Wait, why am I still watching this?

Don't ever question your hate for Kina. She is an 8 year old trapped in an adult's body judging by her schoolyard fighting, clothes, & make-up. I mean, Randy actually chooses to be seen with her??

I loved when Derrick called out Beth and then Beth got him back with the whole Montana/Jamie thing. I actually like Beth more than Kina-Beth at least knows it's all a game, even though she falsely believes she's above everyone else. She does things to make good tv-might as well if you keep getting paid for it & get screen time. Kina thinks this is all reality & has delusions of grandeur.

All I could think when I watchd this show was I've never seen so many stupid morons all in one place at the same time, like an anti-brain trust. Then I watched True Life & discovered they were missing the top 3 anti-brain's. (Doesn't really make sense, I know, but you know what I mean)

B-Side, you are a god in my world!!! Seriously, to reference Conrad Birdie and to use the term "Idiot Bitch" in one review. In a word: awesome. I have using the phrase "idiot bitch" for years. I love that you use it, too. It is a perfect way to describe her. She makes me think of a character that Parker Posey would make up in a Christopher Guest movie. She's a piece of work.

Susie the host bugs me. She can't keep the energy going in her reunion shows. Or she just interrupts everyone who's saying something 'good'. Where's La La when you need her!

And B-Side, don't second-guess yourself, Kina IS a crazy ass bitch. Looks like she already spent all her prize money on blue eyeshadow, red lipstick and Mystic Tan sessions.

b-side, after the bye bye birdie reference, i think i'm a little bit in love with you!

Why did Alton and Mark keep their sunglasses on during the show? Did they thnk they were both Jack Nicholson?

Ok, I didn't watch this so tell me - what was Aneesa doing when people were denying hooking up with her? That is HARSH! (Not that I blame them but really - there's not enough alcohol in the world to justify that so you need to fess up.)

And that dark hair on Robin looks ridiculous.

I don't know who you are, ClariceStarling, but I think you and I could be best friends.

Clarice, you are so on point-Parker Posey would play an excellent Kina!! Please Christopher Guest & Eugene Levy, make a movie about reality tv stars like you did about dog show people, puh-leeze??

#21---Aneesa wasn't there at the reunion (there were only abt 12 or so people fr the show) so we ddn't hear her side of the story. But they aired footage of her & Derrick sleeping & snuggling up (EW)!

Kina is awful, really & truly. i thnk she found the perfect idiot in Randy, who uttered 1 sentence at the beg. of the reunion show & was never heard fr ag'n. (prolly b/c Kina kicked him under the chairs!)

Ok, so this show just showed how stupid these people are and if they do not watch this reunion show and see how retarded they all are there is not a hope on earth for them. Doesn't Kina have anyone in her life telling her to shut up? or stop with the I am the "caption" bullshit. It is truley pure, I will never miss an episope, entertainment. I fucking can't wait till the "Fresh Meat" changelle that is coming, we can only hope that the Austin cast and these tools are all on it. Thank you again B~Side for your re-cap!

stacyrocks (#18) said about Kina "Looks like she already spent all her prize money on blue eyeshadow, red lipstick and Mystic Tan sessions."

Absolutley, not to mention extra strength Crest Whitestrips. Did you see those teeth??? Good God. And you could tell she was trying to show them off. When she said the word "sick" she held her mouth in a ridiculous manner to reveal as many teeth as possible. blech. I start craving dramamine every time she is on screen.

I too saw the True Life episode. Tonya w/ short hair=bad idea. Also, I'm SOOO sure her boyfriend never heard of the Real World. Men NEVER lie to get into someone's pants. Actually, I shouldn't say that, he did seem like a nice guy.

Poor Bazooka Joe to be stuck with a super bitch like Kina.

I have to disagree with consensus and admit that i don't think Aneesa is fat or ugly Seriously if that is your idea of fat we're all gonna be looking like Tracie from 8th and Ocean. I will say I laughed when they showed the clip of Alton telling Aneesa to back of because "uh your like a lesbian." So wise Alton!

Anyway here is where I think Aneesa was instead (NSFW)
http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/6164848.html

Kina is such a bitch!! I really wish Cara would have really told her off... mark Long is a douche.... why didn't they cover the whole Alton/Jodi thing? Not that much ever happened with that, but I'm surprised they didn't ask about it.

If you wondered why Aneesa wasn't at the reunion, maybe she was busy with this: http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/6164848.html

Not safe for work or your eyes really.

Sorry, I didn't see that someone had already posted the link - don't look twice, you'll be suicidal!

Is it just me or does everyone hear the voice of Lenny from The Apprentice in their head when they read comments from The Svan?

LoL plethLaura (#31). I just heard a stern, robotic voice when I read 'his' comments, no accent. But I might now! I love The Svan's comments.

My friend Ashley just informed me that, IN FACT, Danny, Melinda, Johanna, and Wes were all going to be attending the next challenge.....Along with Tanya (who has SERIOUS problems) If MTV added back Rachel, Coral, and Veronica all hell would break loose! I can't WAIT for the new challenge! D-R-A-M-A is abound!!

ps- Did I really just get excited a/b a new season of the Challenge....?

Where is Aneesa? My f-ing work has us blocked from random sights so I cant see it....please spmebody let me know!!!

I have to say that after this Yawntlet I'm looking forward to this next challenge. All the psycho hose beasts will be back & you mix that in with all the couples & high-strung frat boys you've got a whole lotta guilty pleasure fun happening! I think there should be like an ultimate reality tv star death match, like a Survivor with all the losers who can't keep off of these shows (yet we still tune in...) where each week someone gets voted for death. ok, or maybe they just have to stay out of the spotlight, for these people it's the same thing.

Derrick= grease lightning?

oh how i wish beth could get her shit together.. go to a gym and bulk up like an animal. she has the size to do it. she could go on a rampage in the next challenge and beat the shit out of all the lameo weak girls. i know it is just a fantasy because she does not have the mental drive. but ohhh it would be nice to see her kick.. kina, aneesa, montana and ibis fat asses.

AND UH oh yeah... RUN RANDY RUN!!!!

I'll have to agree, Kina has some really nasty fake and bake going on....... geez what was she thinking?

#20, no one is as cool as Jack Nicholson. That being said, the sunglasses indoors was pretty ridiculous.

#26, Kina's mouth is fucked up in general. If I were Cara, I would have leapt across the stage during the show and strangled that girl. When she gave that "it makes me sick" speech, the fake whiny voice she used made ME sick. And I hated her pouting bit. No one pities you, bitch.

As for Cara and Blonde Susie being put in "the most horrible-looking position of all time"... Well, forget about that Hitler guy. Killing Jews, no problem, but forming an ALLIANCE?! On MTV?! Get out of here!

For better or for worse, though, I love these shows.

Here is the ULTIMATE Battle of the Sexes Roster, my dream teams- mtv PAY ATTENTION:

Coral Veronica Rachel Tonya Beth Kina Cara Flora Amaya Melissa(New Orleans) Trashelle Sarah Leah Robin Belou Svetlana Mel

Landon Brad Karamo Derrick The Miz Dan Puck Abe Darrell David (seattle) Alton Ace CT Laterrian RoadRules Theo Veneer Danny Eric

Awesome drama would ensue.

Susie is a SUCKASS host.

Thanks for another great recap B-Side!

Derek is such an idiot.

I didn't think it could be possible to actually produce more HATE for Kina, but I actually hated her even more after the Reunion show. At least Coral, Veronica and Rachel are fun to watch; Kina is just repulsive - I hope she doesn't do any more challenges - I really can't stand even looking at her.

It wouldn't surprise me if Kina spent all her AND poor ever-eloquent seat-filler Randy's prize money to get her other-worldly-look on... Actually, I think she might have spent it in another failed attempt to hide her true 1/3rd-dimension demon form. She looks like she smells like musty cat pee.

why is everyone ragging on kina so hard? yes, she can be a bit annoying. and yes, i lost a certain amount of respect for her when i saw the fake-n-bake (especially next to pale a** randy). BUT, this girl did work her butt off as captain. just judging by the cans of gauntlet whoop-ass that she opened up on cara and jillian, she definitely proved herself on this season.

the sad part is these people really believe in their own twisted minds that they ARE celebrities! hence the sunglasses and the look i think i am Danny outfit that Brad was trying to pull off..sad.

Derrick needs to sit down. Anyone that can lose to someone named TIMMY needs to just keep it shut. Speaking of shutting up..maybe all those fake bake rays got into Kina's brain. Her self-righteous "it makes me sick" comment and equally scary face saying it was enough to make me throw something at the screen.

Maybe somebody can bury Wes in the sand on the beach and we will never have to hear from him again!

Beth rules! i hope she plays every Challenge and Gauntlet they have..if nothing else just to be a thorn in everyone's side. She makes it fun and interesting that is for sure. And her taking out Ruthie and Montana was classic!
