TBL - Contestants Gone Wild!

Reuter did a good summary of last night's episode. So, I won't focus too much on the parts he covered. Basically, the black team was dominating because the blue team sucks at life, so TBL had to try and shake things up a bit. They did a challenge and the prize was 24 hours of luxury. Of course, the black team won...

And then they went wild!

Reuter thinks that they deserved a break and to let off steam. I think that they went a bit overboard. I mean, this is TBL, not The Real World! I probably would have opted for a good dinner and maybe a couple drinks, a massage & a mani/pedi... But, I wouldn't have gone overboard and I would have made sure to get a workout or two in. These guys went crazy. I mean, a HUGE meal, then a ton of booze and some fried bar food after the huge meal? Not to mention some smoking... Wow. I knew Jillian was going to go off. A few seasons ago she flipped out because one contestant had a glass of wine!

Jillian did go overboard. But, she always does, so that was really no surprise. However, I was surprised when she didn't work out Filipe. That was just weird.

To mix things up TBL also had the contestants weigh-in against each other. This turned out to bite the blue team in the butt too. I mean, as if they needed more against them. Both teams lost 18 lbs and the blue team weighed less to begin with, so they would have won without the one-on-one weigh-in crap. Oh well...

So, the blue team is headed back to the elimination room. Big shocker there. Even with the black team going on a bender, they still can't beat them. And why? Well, they were the weaker team to begin with... But, then they voted off their best player... And they have kept the worst player in the game, Ron, around. Stupid! So, as soon as they lose the weigh-in, Lee & I both are like "OK, there is a mother/daughter team, a team of 2 sisters and Ron. Ron is going home."

They get into the room and Ron goes "Ok, it's Mandi's turn to go home." WHAT?!? Who died and made you a useful team player? So, no one even mentions voting Ron out as they sit there and decide whether Aubrey or Mandi would go home. Do they not realize that they are going to be in the elimination room every week until Ron gets the F off the team?

In the end, there is yet another stupid vote and Mandi goes home. And Ron stays another freaking week.

Dumbest team ever!

Oh yeah, and in the end, Mandi says that she hopes to be a size 2 by the finale. A 2?!? That is really really tiny. Are you planning to lose all the weight and some of your actual hip bones? She really should have opted for a more realistic size like a 6. But, I mean, if Dane/Blaine can run a marathon in 3:50... Maybe she can do it.
