What's good about Fresh Meat as opposed to Big Brother/AYTO etc is that they can include physical ability as a trait they look for when casting people. Those other shows are just looking for people who bring drama. That's how we end up with people like Jozea.

This group looks like it has more athletes than Fresh Meat I or II. On Fresh Meat II, the only elite athletes were Noor, Laurel, and Cara Maria. Along with Theresa, the three girls became regulars but there were pretty much no men after Free Agents.

John is 34 he’s old, but not that old.

CT is 36 or 37.

It seems like John is so
Old because he’s been doing this forever. MTV generallt cats older folks now, so Nelson is like 30, Joss is 28/29 and Kalyleigh is 28/29 and they are considerened new folks.

Got that one right!


They're all getting older, but I have to imagine the audience for this show is older than the average MTV demographic. I'm 38 and it's the only MTV show that I watch these days.

As far as stealing all of the money goes... I think I'd put the percentage of stealing as:
Hunter 99%
Ashley 90%
Cara Maria 50%
Sylvia 30%
Marie 20%
Joss 20%
Paulie 10%
Natalie 10%

Hunter I'd bet just about anything would take the money and run. Ashley probably as well, but there's a chance she splits just because she doesn't want to be seen as that much of a bitch. Cara Maria I'm 50/50 on, and I'd expect everyone else to split the money. Sylvia I could see maybe taking the money but I think in the end she wouldn't have that much ruthlessness in her. Marie is too desperate to be liked to take it all. Joss seems like a good enough guy to split it, and Paulie/Natalie don't even really seem like vendettas, so they would almost certainly split the money.

She did really good in those running challenges. Surprised she had the overall best time though. Can't really blame her for taking the money either. At least Hunter got to frick her.

Sylvia and Joss are idiots. The fact they took another teams word during a million dollar final is one of the stupidest things I can remember from a challenge.

Seeing them cry like babies + Hunter cry like a baby made this season somewhat worth it.

Just got to the coals part where Natalie and Paulie fricked Joss and Sylvia.... And its fricking glorious.

Its a total snake arse move, but those Dipshits were the ones that made a moronic deal. How was Hunter the only one who sniffed it out as a bad deal?

I know John and Tony are sitting home laughing their asses off watching the Lavneder bicthces crying their eyes out on TV because of an absolute stupid deal.

An old school vet would have never... Ever believed the deal because they know no one can be trusted when it comes to money.

I still hate Natalie, now probably even more, and Paulie is just as big of a snake, but now Natalie, in making that move, is going to lose $500,000, but at least these morons falling into these traps gave some entertainment.

That was such a weak final holy shite.

They went all out to make sure a team like Johnny/Tony wouldn’t have won if they made the final.

Paulie and Natalie were retarded as hell to not use the grenade for the 10 minute penalty. That probably cost them the win since Cara/Marie would have probably given their grenade to Joss.

As terrible as this season has been, watching Sylvia cry after acting like she was the shite all season was great.

ETA since I hadn't seen Hunter's meltdown yet. AMAZING. TYB's finest moment on the Challenge

Has to suck so hard that everyone else in that cave is walking away with some money and he gets NOTHING

It was stupid to use the grenade at the coals. The keys only added like 30 seconds to Joss/Sylvia time. If they would have used it at the 5k run, the 10 minutes would have automatically put Joss/Sylvia last.

You’re kind of saying that with the benefit of hindsight. How were they to know what the last grenade was going to be?

Also strange that TJ just said stage 1’s grenade was “weighted heavily” but told them what every other grenade did.

I thought Ashley was the only one who made money. Didn’t everyone else get nothing?

shite, I assumed everybody else won like 20k or something like every other season. But now that you mention it, they didn’t show any of them getting money.

Ashley is a fricking nutjob hoe psychopath, but Hunter lagging arse the whole time cost him the money.

That bitch was never going to share anything and he should have known that.

I'm glad that Cara at least got to watch the immense meltdown in so many ways, all basking in the glory of failure.

Btw, that's a weak arse final if I've ever seen one. Remember they used to climb mountains on like 35 minutes sleep?

I actually don't think that choosing to take all of the money is a good decision by production. Yes it makes people flip out, but it ruins people's lives in the actual world. They never get over that shite.

Sara will never come back on the show and I bet Hunter has visions about that shite every day.

I kind of feel dirty after watching the end of the final and the reunion preview because its so toxic because of how the show goaded people into making these desicions. But I guess they signed up for it, so its on them.

I don't like watching shite that dark on the Challenge though. Devin and Corey especially actually seem mentally unstable now.
