Before we get started on the new episode, there was the slight matter of an elimination to go through. A lot of people were a little confused last week by the voting, and by a "a lot" I mean "everyone". They didn't say how long the voting would last, for the people who were kicked off the RV, but they did say that you can vote for the people from the pit crew starting at 10AM every Saturday. We still have plenty of episodes, so I am sure that at least a few of us will get the hang of it eventually,
In this elimination, Veronica was picked to go against Tori, and in a little bit of a surprise, Tori won. I picked Veronica AND Tori because I thought Veronica would eat Tori alive, get back to the RV and then cause lots of problems with Susie, Kina, and Adam. Just like I expected, the competition was a slaughter, but to my surprise, it was Tori who wiped the floor with Veronica. Their challenge, a sort of tug of war where they both tried to get to a flag really didn't favor somebody so petite and with short legs like Veronica. If I were a conspiracy theorist, I would say they wanted Veronica to lose, only to make her more upset when she came back, but that would be irresponsible of me.
The Road Rulers got their message about being swift, and when they met THE ROADMASTER, Drew Bell, he filled them in. One of the good things about this show happening in real-time is that the producers get to make changes on the fly. Apparently, there was enough bitching about Drew Bell's completely superfluous hand gesturing that they told THE ROADMASTER to simmer down a bit. Granted, he now looks like he is trying to keep his arms perfectly still when he talks, which is also strange, but much less annoying. Overall, there was a lot less Drew this week so we will deal. However, my offer still stands. I will make a smiley face on my ass with magic marker and audition to host this show. And if they say I don't have enough experience, they can always ask Rip Torn to do the same thing. Wouldn't THAT be a sight to see?

Abram is retarded first of all;
what was he thinking;
Like Adam was saying he had a guaranteed spot -- guess he couldnt put two and two together
But i really like Tori;
She should do well on the challenges

Too bad Veronica is gone. That elimination was the lamest design ever. And sucks that Abe is gone as well. Abe and Veronica were the only reason I was actually excited about the season.
Now there's one less veteran and a guaranteed male scrub in the RV at any time?
Snore. I can't stand the pit crew people (oversexed lesbian, faux-ghetto streetdancer, right-wing nutjob) .. They all have such a character they're obviously trying to fit into. Its pathetic!

Abram is a PSYCHO. He was becoming enraged all by himself. What a weirdo.
I don't like Tori. I liked her until she was hysterical over a fight that had nothing to do with her. Damn its not like he hit her.

what, no comment about adam climbing into tori's bunk the first night after they had all been talking?
and j-unit, not all girls cry during fights. i'd have been standing on the sidelines, cheering their dumb asses on.

I think Abram planned it. He looked much too smug while packing. Otherwise, he's even bigger idiot than I previously thought.
Tori is a moron. What, she's never seen a fight or an episode of RW, RR, or the Challenge? She was bleating she wanted to go home? WTF?!!

Ok I’m a dummy, because I thought Drew’s new disposition had to do with my shooting red-hot laser thoughts of hate into the tv screen in an effort to terminate his existence. Little did I know, it was the new real-time format thingiemagjig. YAY Producers!! Score one for you. That being said, when a perpetually jolly person suddenly becomes subdued, it’s sorta creepy. I’m not sure Drew can win here.
I can’t believe you didn’t screen cap Shane grabbing Adam’s under-nuts when he pulled him from the water. He was already out at that point and it was totally unnecessary...awesome.
Tori crying was the funniest thing ever. Ohhh, pretty pretty pagent queen.
As for Abram. Just...stupid. There really are no words. Well there are, but I don’t have enough time to write them all out. And what was with that weird scene there at the end of the fight where Abe just layed in Adam’s lap while Adam shooed Shane away??? Was that only strange to me?

Where is the reality show that pit's crazy people together? Spencer and Abe would be something to see

Abram is the first "Road Rules" two time loser. And this time, history repeated itself.

I'm not particularly liking this season so far. This episode was just... blah. Dumb mission, dumb people. I can understand Tori being a little scared when she went under the water, but seriously, like J-Unit said, they had a whole team of professionals RIGHT THERE. And then everyone saying she could have died. Wtf, it was literally five seconds under the water.
I don't like Tori. She's just... blah. And why the hell was she crying during the fight? That was really obnoxious, she was safely away from them and I think she just wanted some attention.
Very surprised at Abe's actions, yet sad to see him go. Yeah, he may be a moron and even dumber for actually fighting Adam, but at least he's interesting and not so grating. None of the alumni left interest me, although I do like Shane.
I for one hate new people on these shows. So the fact that there will undoubtedly be a new guy because Abe left sucks. Plus, all the Pit Crew guys seem like total douchebags.

antebellum,
I agree with everything you said!
Although, I have to admit even though I don't really like Tori, I get upset when violent outbursts flare up out of nowhere. For some reason, I just react and don't really know why! I could totally see why Abe lost it with Donnell, but that whole Adam thing was weird - it makes me wonder what we didn't see... hmm...
I think another old-timer should be brought in, I'm thinking Coral, Rachel, Osama Beth Laden, Danny Douche-bag (even though I HATE him!), or Big Gay Dan... Someone who will create some DRAMA!
I used to kind of like Susie, but her over-animated expressions are just really getting on my nerves this season. I still HATE Kina, and her funky-dog face. I think she knows how much viewers hate her, and is trying to redeem herself so she doesn't get voted into the PIT!
As much as it sucks I still watch - I'm so pathetic!
BTW - Happy Birthday J-Unit! Another great recap! :-)

Chee-Z: Unfortunately, almost all of the possible alumni you mentioned are from Real World (except Rachel), haha. Although I agree, they need to have the possibility of other alumni coming in as well.

Hmm... Good point antebellum! :-O LOL!
The newbies just seem dull, or like they're trying too hard - BORing!!

The newbie guys reek of "Trying too hard". They all seem uninteresting and douchey. They could bring in Darrell or Theo for a veteran.
As for Abram, I thought Donell was a complete jackass, so I didn't care that Abram punched him. Donell played the "black card" waaay too much which always bugs me. I don't blame my short comings and problems on my being black, so I can't relate to people that do. In this season, Abram was just a tool. He had no reason to fly off the handle like he did. He's got some kind of chemical imbalance, I think.
I also agree with Tori's crying being annoying. I don't understand what crying solves in that case. People are fighting around her so she cries? Girls do that on all of these shows, I guess they're just too sensitive.
Susie's cute, leave her weird facial expressions alone. Kina is fair game though, that chick sucks....

I can totally relate to Tori because whenever there is a fight around me I just hide in a corner and cry...I don't know why I just do :-P I'm sad to see Abram gone I actually like him and I think Adam could have lost in the Pit but whatever, he's not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. Thank god Shane is still around cause I think he's a nice guy and I hope he wins. As for the girls,I guess I'm rooting for Tori because I HATE Kina and Susie is just annoying.
