As you wrap up your Sunday full of football, wrestling and getting a headstart on the Thanksgiving preparations and your holiday shopping, it's hard to think that we are now heading towards the conclusion of Season 32 of The Challenge... and soon enough, the ultimate Final Reckoning will be at hand as the final dash for $1 million goes down in South Africa. First things first comes the last daily challenge before the final, and one more elimination to determine the final four. This is why we refer to this week as the Semifinal of this season.
This business end of this season began last week when the doors of the Redemption House were locked up as the residents of that villa battled one more time to regain their spot in the game. In an elimination doubleheader, a season-long feud saw Bananas & Tony get the best of Shane & Nelson, while Killa Kam added to her glorious elimination record. However, she & Kayleigh couldn't keep the momentum going after that win in a grueling endurance challenge in the South African countryside and they were eliminated as the last place team, while Joss & Sylvia took the win.
They, #Banony, Paulie & Natalie, Ashley & Hunter and Cara Maria & Marie will this week find themselves on the edge, as the final challenge looms and one more set of a daily challenge and an elimination will take place... in the same week of all things. Alliances will dissolve into the desert as a SECOND trivia challenge will test everyone's brains and nerves ahead of the final exam. For a budding romance who we saw get sealed with a tattoo earlier this fall, the flirtation for a champ and an upstate becomes something a bit more. And to add to what's been a wild season to say the least, a big twist in regards to the final is revealed... and if your memories are fresh about that hot August night, you'll know what we mean.
After the jump, it's the Pulse of the penultimate week of The Challenge Final Reckoning, followed by a trip to the Strategy Room for our evaluation of the final four and our predictions of who we feel will win. And thanks for staying up with us this weekend...

@ToriFiorenza: Stop trying to rewrite the ending to look pretty...sometimes endings are messy and hard...be content with them ending that way. #letitgo
@JuddWinick: It was 24 years ago today that Pedro Zamora died. A hard truth is that he’s been gone longer than he was alive. He leaves behind an eternal legacy that still inspires people all over the world as well as a generation of young people who weren’t born when we all came to know him.
- @amayasays: @JuddWinick Pedro Zamora left an indelible mark on the lives of the people who knew him or witnessed his groundbreaking presence on television. This is a lovely tribute from fellow Real World alum, and Pedro's castmate and friend, Judd Winick:
@JuddWinick: Okay. I feel odd posting this. But it feels odd NOT posting this. I did a book about Pedro Zamora. PEDRO AND ME. It tells the story the only way I knew how. It’s a graphic novel, a 250 page comic book. I wanted Pedro’s story to stay out there.
@ChallengeMTV: No matter how hard they try, they can't rain on Bananas' parade and that's why today he's our #MCM ๐ #TheChallenge32
@kailah_casillas: I broke my phone tonight... but this tweet is from @iammikeyp phone... and all i have to say is that @Marie_TBD can’t hang ever

- @Marie_TBD: @ChallengeMTV Diem was an absolute angel always. I am so lucky to have gotten to meet her and witness first hand how special of a human she was. Rest In Peace, Diem. We all miss you.
@ToriFiorenza: I don’t think this day will ever get easier...I think about her all the time, and wish I could call her and hear her say “baby girl, listen...” followed by the best advice and hours of laughing. Miss you today and always sweet Friend! #DiemStrong #cancersucks
@CSUGradAkirk: #RIPDiemBrown four years ago today we lost you but you are still in hearts here is a podcast i did in her memory on that day
@Marie_TBD: "@CarterHayes1995: @CaraMariaMTV damn cara, back to back challenge finals, pretty big deal, now go get that win with @Marie_TBD. #TheChallenge32" RT Fun fact: @CaraMariaMTV is the only challenger to make all 3 finals of the trilogy... and the last one was with me! @ChallengeMTV #thechallenge32
@RealityTvGuru99: I've been waiting 6 years for my girl Marie to finally make it to a finals and today is the day it finally happens. Marie has worked so hard to get to the end and im so happy for her and Cara. Go kill this final half breed ladies #TheChallenge33
@JustJem24: "@NotoriousSammyC: Reminder that you got eliminated first https://twitter.com/justjem24/status/1062538348265463808 …" RT Reminder that is was my teammate’s fault not mine so I’m not bothered but you seem big mad ๐.
@JustJem24: "@NotoriousSammyC: And it was a team game you had a chance to look for Jenna and you failed so it’s both of yalls faults https://twitter.com/justjem24/status/1062541324866457601 …" RT I was buried alive, please tell me how I had a chance to look for her. ๐ค. It was 100% her fault bc I gave her perfect directions which she also said numerous times...
@JustJem24: "@Challenge_Chat: @JustJem24 Jem you’re petty for blaming your partner ...regardless if its her fault or not." RT I simply stated facts. Jenna has said numerous times I was always supportive of her even though it was her fault but Im not about to take blame for a situation that was 100% out of my hands. Also, calling me petty doesn’t offend me.. My level of petty is a talent๐
@JustJem24: I think some of you need to look up the definition of a curse bc your clapbacks/responses make zero sense and I can’t respond to your blatant stupidity bc if you engage with a clown you become a clown
@RealLifeFlop: Joss/Sylvia: won 2 eliminations, never eliminated all season, makes the final Bananas/Tony: eliminated twice in 1 season, no final Braindead fans: Joss/Sylvia did nothing & don't deserve to be there, but Bananas/Tony do #TheChallenge32

@Marie_TBD: @smashingheads: Shoutout to @Marie_TBD for making her first final and who has been so great to us.

@NataliaNegrotti: My thoughts on last night’s episode: #thechallenge32
@urth42: .@JustJem24 the @johnnybananas curse is real. Don't doubt a New Orleans girl.
@QueenLegend6: @Marie_TBD face when TJ said they made it to the final is a whole mood that I felt.>>>>>>๐ญ Well done girl
@joss_mooney: Nothing than kill your vibe more than a new barber that cuts your hair wrong.
@CoryWharton: Its crazy when you don't like somebody how unattractive they start to become๐ถ
@CoryWharton: Ok question quick ๐ Do you like sleeping naked ????That’s a No for me it’s uncomfortable I’m good with some basketball shorts ๐๐ฝ
@MTVRWRRQuotes: Ya’ll want some tea? The elimination shown last night was thrown together last minute as the night before @johnnybananas / @tonyraines and @NataliaNegrotti / @PaulCalafiore_ competed in a different elimination (see pictures below) that was cancelled mid way through.. ๐ค
- @johnnybananas: @MTVRWRRQuotes Bingo ๐
@MTVRWRRQuotes: I have heard multiple times that if the elimination wasn’t changed Johnny & Tony would have won. #TheChallenge32
@ChallengeMTV: TJ told the Finalists that they'd have a big decision to make at the end of The Final, and we all remember what happened last time he introduced this twist... ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ #TheChallenge32 http://on.mtv.com/2PXYTTy
@ChallengeMTV: The last time TJ told the Finalists they had the option to keep or split the prize money, this happened... #TBT
@ImSarahRice: . @NataliaNegrotti OH MY GOD GIRL!!! you are a BEAST!!!! ๐ช๐ช๐ชand I need to hear ALL ABOUT what that was like!!! PLEEEEASE come on our show so we can talk about how you are such a badass!! ๐๐๐๐๐๐

@Marie_TBD: Next weeks @ChallengeMTV Final - Oh. My. God. Please don’t believe the de-hype (if that’s a word.) best final in a very, very, very long time. I have chills.
@Marie_TBD: If you’re having problems filling up the new real world house, I’m down for a victory lap. @BunimMurray @MTV on the real though- they’re casting NOW. The answers always no if you don’t try. #TheRealWorld
@tonyraines: I’m seeing alot of controversy surrounding the Elimination between Me/Bananas and Nat/Paulie. I think we might need another Challenge Mania podcast to clear this up! @SHOTOFYAGER @DerrickMTV #TheChallenge32 #EliminationGate

STRATEGY ROOM
THE FINAL FOUR
Compared to what we had with the two other finals of this trilogy, you might say that this is the most wide open field for a Challenge final in some time, though we have two previous titlists in the final field of eight competitors. However, everyone has made their case to be one of those four teams that now have aspirations on $1 million. Briefly, our evaluations of the finalists:
● ASHLEY & HUNTER: It's true: they might be considered why there's been resentment - fellow blogger Allan Aguirre included - about the Mercenaries twist and how it's been used this season. But after what we've seen from them, Ashley & Hunter have a lot to play for: she's trying to be a two-time champ amidst what we've seen from her here, while Hunter looks to make everyone who loathed AYTO joining this show eat their words. They won that elimination over Angela & Faith to gain their spot here, were power team once in this game, and yet there's been some tension with them all along here. Should they win this final there's a good chance one will pull the steal, something that the other three teams will likely not do. Keep an eye out for that if that happens.
● CARA MARIA & MARIE: On paper, this would be the team that should be favored in this final on the basis that it has the only player who has made all three finals of this trilogy and that she has gained a new ally amidst what the nature of this season when most everyone was against them. Going into this season, Cara & Marie would've been a likely choice to probably go home early simply because of what got them paired up in the first place. The format of this season gave incentive for partners to suck it up and work together, something that's worked for some and didn't for others. And once they knew that they had to do it if they want $1 million, they put aside their beef: a memorable nomination moment and an elimination win later, they're into this final.
● JOSS & SYLVIA: For the team who has had a good season here, it's what we've seen from them of late that has given Joss & Sylvia a good chance to win this. Two times they've gone into elimination on this season, and both times they have won, helping to give the KC girl a 5-1 mark to put her onto the path of becoming a Challenge staple going forward. It was them beating out Tony & Bananas in the always dangerous water-based elimination that also molded in a puzzle that gave them serious cred... and it was further enhanced by winning the last two regular challenges to claim their spot in the final. And if it weren't for her having to drop out after that battle with Melissa and him getting knocked out by Derrick last season, they would've made the Vendettas final too.
● NATALIE & PAULIE: Like #Soss, Natalie & Paulie also won two eliminations this season, but they had to overcome greater odds to be the first non-MTV show to make a Challenge final. Of course, they had to endure having to go into the Redemption House not once, but twice during the course of this long season... and losing in both Redemption Eliminations to Da'Vonne & Jozea. But they stayed patient through all of this, and when they went into the third Redemption battle they beat Brad & Kyle to gain their way back into the house. And like Joss & Syl, they also won two dailies after that elimination win, as as knock off the team who were favorites to win that last pre-final elimination, Bananas & Tony, for the final spot, proving momentum is your friend here.
Because the final is so wide open and anything can possibly happen, we don't have a clear choice of who we feel will win this season. But our hope here is that the final should be one that we will remember for a long time - both competitively in hopefully seeing every go through the struggle of what a Challenge should be like and what the big decision will be when it all ends... ask the team who just got nipped for the fourth & final spot in this final about those two reasons.
For those who favor experience, you'll likely go for Cara & Marie. If you love seeing a team garner the same kind of late-season momentum that we just saw the AYTO 7 cast garner en route to $1 million as well as being big underdogs, likely you'll pull for Natalie & Paulie. For consistency and being elimination masters, Joss & Sylvia will be your choice. And if you want a mix of crazy but also competitive heart, then it's Ashley & Hunter. Let's cross our fingers for a good final.
▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪
Ahead at midweek of this short Thanksgiving week, we'll look ahead at two coming attractions: the next season of The Challenge and the Facebook reboot of The Real World. We'll also round out our coverage of Are You The One Season 7 with the tea-spilling Reunion and our season-end WRAP with its top moments and another trip into the Strategy Room. And we've some other good posts planned over the coming holiday week, so be sure to bookmark us for all of that then... schedule can change now until then, so follow me on Twitter @DC408Dxtr for updates and to chat it up with yours truly.
Meanwhile, this past week saw the launch of Season 2 of the American version of where Joss and Paulie were on before their Challenge takeover, Ex On The Beach, where Nelson, Nicole R., Angela, Jozea and the AYTO 6 love triangle of Nurys, Malcolm & Diandra will join Farrah Abraham, Romeo Miller and friends for the sequel to the ultimate relations___ show in Southern California. DCBLOG offered A Look Ahead to that season from earlier this fall which you can check out here, and the show itself will be - at least for now - the focus of the winter '18-19 MTV cycle starting as soon as this Challenge season ends, along with the fall half of Season 2 of Floribama Shore.
That will bring this weekend to a close... hope you have a good week and we'll see you soon here as we roll along on our ride Inside MTV Reality on DCBLOG.
