Along with this being the Thanksgiving holiday, this is a big Saturday in college football as Ohio State vs. Michigan, Alabama vs. Auburn, Florida vs. Florida St. and other rivalry games dominate the last week of the regular season before conference championships and the traditional battle between Army and Navy. And the regular season is coming to an end for the teams representing the United States and Great Britain as it's now crunch time on The Challenge, as War of the Worlds 2 is knocking on the door of the final that will determine who wins the lions' share of $1 million.

Last week marked the start of the serious business as TJ Lavin dropped a Teej-bomb on the remaining players with a Purge: a paired swimming & puzzle challenge determined which guy & girl would see their hope of joining the multi-day dash for the cash vanish... and in the end it was Kayleigh and Joss who swam the slowest cumulative time and decimated an already crippled British side. Team USA won that challenge and once again the Brits threw in their male turncoat, Jordan, to face Josh in, what turned out to be, our last trip to the Proving Ground, and the 2-time champ's clever strategy in that tug of war gave him another elimination win.

The field for the men is now set in Leroy, Paulie & Zach for Team USA, and CT, Jordan & Rogan for the Brits... and this week, it's the ladies' turn to see who will be joining them for the chase to the jackpot. And once again, water plays a role as the season's last regular challenge will determine who will have the edge going to the marathon for the cash, and who will have to earn their way to the start line for the million. One of the men already in may play a role in the outcome of this last daily, and whoever gets thrown in will have a treacherous super elimination and a mini-final to contest the last ticket to the chocolate factory.

After the jump, it's Semifinal Week on War of the Worlds 2 as we bring you the Pulse of The Challenge, plus everyone's favorite mama becomes a kid again. Thanks for joining us...


IN BETWEEN, & CHALLENGE WEDNESDAY 
@ChallengeMTV: *walking into my high school reunion now that I've outgrown my awkward phase* #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Challenge War of the Worlds: What if the Vets picked their partners?
- @TheAllanAguirre: This was the hardest articles I've ever written. I broke down how War of the Worlds 1 would have gone if the Vets pick their partners. Find out how your favorite would have done with a different partner. I accounted for challenges, eliminations, nominations, and call outs.
@Giannis_An34: "@mariahdanae15: Sooooooo..... @ChallengeMTV can you please please please create a challenge based on the strongest competitors and not all of these politics and alliances! I truly want to see who the actual strong competitors are! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ" RT ๐Ÿ’ฏ

@TheAllanAguirre: 10 of the Worst Individual Seasons in Challenge History https://t.co/o9ytJrSaO5?amp=1
- @TheAllanAguirre: Joss committed himself to the Cara Cult, but got none of the benefits that other alliance members had. He didn't get to avoid eliminations and was the one getting blood on his hands. That's an all-time bad season. I wrote about 10 of the worst experiences in Challenge history.
- @TheAllanAguirre: * Sarah getting the money stolen from / * Jonna's being verbally abused by Zach / * Derrick getting cheated on in the same season he was on. / * Devin losing his dad, then getting DQ'd because of Cory. / There were some of the worst? Which should have been on the list?

@ZNichols15: Has anyone ever purchased anything from Cracker Barrel s store.?
- @kailah_casillas: @ZNichols15 The candy canes ๐Ÿคค


AS THEY SAW IT: "The Right Honorable Rogan" 
@ChallengeMTV: Try not to stress! #TheChallenge34 is starting RIGHT NOW on @mtv!
@ChallengeMTV: #TheChallenge34 is starting RIGHT NOW! Who's watching?
@TheAllanAguirre: Ashley is serving #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: Feel like a "but" is coming... #TheChallenge34  (GIF: CT - "We think your abilities are awesome")
@ChallengeMTV: Keep your eye on the prize! #TheChallenge34  (GIF: Ashley - "I'm here to win")
@TheAllanAguirre: Rogan and Dee are a couple who wants to break up but still have 2 months left on their lease. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Jordan and Tori: So you'd rather run a final with Rogan and Dee than us? CT: Uh, yeah, I guess. #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: Muhahahaha! #TheChallenge34  (GIF of Jordan laughing)
@TheAllanAguirre: The first thing I thought of when I saw the first photo. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: The funniest thing about this daily challenge is that you can tell MTV planned it before the season started and thought the teams would be even at this point. Instead of making a new and simple challenge, they just create this unbalanced mess. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Jordan looking at the women of Team USA knowing they have swim against him. #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: Diving into bed after a long day like. #TheChallenge34  (GIF of Leroy and Nany falling into water)
@TheAllanAguirre: Praying for Leroy and Nany ๐Ÿฅบ #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: That million dollars is so close you can almost taste it. ๐Ÿค‘ #TheChallenge34 (GIF: CT - "Let's go win some money")
@ChallengeMTV: When your S.O. asks "where do you want to go for dinner?": #TheChallenge34  (GIF of Rogan covering his face)
@StevenPlummer22: YO CT JUST CHANGED THIS WHOLE GAME UP #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: I don't want to hear anyone say CT is playing chess for not putting Tori into the final elimination. It was the easiest and most logical move. If he was really playing chess, he'd have voted Cara or Ashley into elimination instead of Ninja. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Ashley being upset about getting voted in is hilarious considering the fact that she technically turned on her alliance when she voted Ninja into elimination back in Episode 4. #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: Team UK heading back to the house knowing they're all going to the final. #TheChallenge34  (Video of TikTok of basketball players dancing to locker room)
@ChallengeMTV: Ashley when she gets thrown in then remembers she's already a millionaire. #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: Win some money, up that wedding budget. #TheChallenge34  (GIF: Tori to Jordan - "Now we have to go win some money to pay for our wedding")
@joe_torgerson93: Jordan’s a beast period
@joe_torgerson93: I’d love to try some of the swimming challenges. Not too many of the other ones though
@ZNichols15: Just got my new NordicTrack Commercial X32i. Its been amazing to workout all over the world and I love using the iFit personal trainer which personalizes my workouts for me!Click the link to get your own NordicTrack complete with theiFit personal trainer https://nordictrack.com/commercial-treadmills?utm_campaign=zachdec19ig
@ChallengeMTV: When your sibling takes the last piece of pie at Thanksgiving. #TheChallenge34   (GIF: Ashley - "I'm mad. I'm sad. I'm hurt. I'm betrayed.")
@ChallengeMTV: Who do you want to see win this elimination? #TheChallenge34
- Ashley 25% / Nany 75%   932 votes · Final results
@TheAllanAguirre: Cara is now the first person in Challenge History to have made it to 9 Finals. She did so in 14 appearances. She is also the only Female to have ever make the Final in 5 straight appearances. A win would tie her for the most all-time by a female with 3. #TheChallenge34
@nourfraij_: every time i watch an episode of the challenge and cara marie gets on my screen, i just cringe. there’s something really off about her.
@TheAllanAguirre: CT is now tied for the MOST Final appearances by a male with 8 (tying Bananas). He did so in 16 appearances. Another win would be CT's third, and would potentially send him off properly. #TheChallenge34
@kareem_fathalla: Fuckin love CT man ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ
@realitytvtrash_: Now we have a game!!! CT did that!!! #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: Me every Sunday morning thinking about my night. #TheChallenge34  (GIF: Nany - "I may have to reconsider my life choices")
@sjmedd: Someone on the UK team finally made a smart decision! CT should have said Cara Maria tho #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: This is going to be Jordan's 4th career Final in 5 seasons. Another win would make him the first 3 time champion since Bananas did it back on Rivals 1. A Jordan win would also be the first 3 peat in Challenge history since Derrick on Inferno3/Island/Ruins   #TheChallenge34
@sjmedd: Running elimination?! I think Ashley got this. Nany tends to not win eliminations, and is not as good at running #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Leroy is now a 4 time Finalist. There have only been two competitors to have not won by their fourth finals appearances'. One is Jenn Grijavla, the other is CT. However, CT won his fifth final (Rivals 1). Hoping Leroy can finally get a win. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Zach is also a 4 time Finalist now. He is like the Sheamus of the Challenge. His career started off so well that you'd think we'd view a Champion with four finals appearances in 9 season higher. This just feels eh? #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Tori and Kam are now two time finalists. Tori made her second final in three seasons, while Kam made her second in four seasons. The two have been linked since their back to back amazing rookie seasons. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Paulie and Ninja were partners on WOTW1 and now they are both in their second final. Ninja made two finals in two seasons while Paulie made two of three. Paulie did need some production help the first time. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: America's Favorite Couple is going to their first final. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Imagine being so fucking corny that Rogan's corny ass is making fun of you? #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Nany enjoying the appearance check. That's it. That's the tweet. #TheChallenge34
@sjmedd: Ashley killed it! What a beast .. even with loss time #TheChallenge34
@Caramariastea: Cara, Kam & Ninja werent even happy they made the final Because Ashley went into elimination...the loyalty they showcase ! #TheChallenge34
@sjmedd: Nany got soo close to the Final! Idk if she’ll ever win. She can work on improving puzzles and swimming #TheChallenge34
@ChallengeMTV: *gulp* #TheChallenge34  (GIF: Ashley - "You're not gonna like the taste of...")
@TheAllanAguirre: Ashley is now 3 time Challenge finalist, having done so in 6 appearances. Ashley has won an elimination every season she has won. She won her even numbered appearances (2nd and 4th). She won an elimination this season and it's her 6th season. #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Paulie saying his 3 season stretch is an all-timer is hilarious. 2 finals with a 3-3 elim record is good, but... Wes went 8-1 in elims and was the first individual champion / Darrell and Jamie won their first three in a row. / Emily S won a title, went 5-0 in elims   #TheChallenge34
@DerrickMTV: Damn..he said: “I just mugged the U.S. team for a million dollars...put the money in the bag.” ๐Ÿ”ซ #TheChallenge34 #Bang
@ChallengeMTV: Me critiquing Christmas trees: #TheChallenge34  (GIF: Paulie - "Well it's not perfect")
@sjmedd: Zach is right .. having more people can be a disadvantage, especially in a Final #TheChallenge34
@sjmedd: Both sides don’t have their potentially strongest playera by choice #TheChallenge34
@StevenPlummer22: I was totally expecting #TheChallenge34 to be an hour in a half. The hour took me by surprise
@ChallengeMTV: How much British slang do you know?? #TheChallenge34 ๐Ÿ‘‡ https://bit.ly/37GFiNH

@TheAllanAguirre: Challenge War of the Worlds 2 Episode 14 Recap : 10 Biggest Takeaways #TheChallenge34  https://t.co/ZKe5ihw9RK?amp=1
- @TheAllanAguirre: My Episode 14 Recap is up. My biggest takeaway is this could have been a half hour episode. Regardless, I breakdown:  * Nany/Ashley elimination / * The struggles of being Nany fan / * Weird daily challenge / * JorTor Powerhouse / * Cara sort of killed it   #TheChallenge34
@TheAllanAguirre: Alright, I've been watching Nany lose on the Challenge for almost a decade, but I'm ready to convince myself that next season will finally be my girls year. #TheChallenge34
@PaulCalafiore_: 3 Seasons / 20 Daily Wins / 3 Elimination Wins / 2 Final Appearances   I’m happy of the path I’m on. Just want to shout out @DerrickL I took a lot of my strategy from his book just in case this season turned into a social/political game which it did very early on #TheChallenge34
@helloalievans: #TheChallenge34  Roses are red, Violets are art,On tonight’s ep CT was like:  (Pic: "Okay, actually let's play smart")
@morbeen4444: Jordan has definitely proved that he’s one of the best competitors on this show!! #TheChallenge34
@JustJem24: Watching this week’s episode of @ChallengeMTV.. For the record I never said the curse was not making a final. I said it’s not making money/winning the final. Just for clarification.. #TheChallenge34
@JustJem24: @MTVASHLEYBROOKE is ๐Ÿ’ฏ the best girl competitor left in this game. #TheChallenge34
@JustJem24: @ZNichols15 is ๐Ÿ’ฏ the best part of #challenge34. I love that y’all are finally see how likeable of an asshole is he...
@JustJem24: I also hate this entire US team alliance expect @MTVASHLEYBROOKE. She’s somehow still very likeable even if she’s in the middle of a trash alliance. #challenge34

So, the finals field is set for the ladies: Ashley, Cara, Kam and Ninja on the American side, and Dee and Tori for the Brits... and the girl who stole that million the last time she made it this far won her way into the final in beating Nany, and more heartbreak for one who came back last season looking to win that first ring but she'll have to wait another day after that tough super elimination, as well as one more trip into the water for the players.
   A program note: the final of this season will once again be spread out over two weeks starting this coming week, but since many of you would prefer to delay your viewing of part 1 to just before part 2 airs, we will hold over the 'Pulse of the first half of the finale for the following week and part 2 of that coming up in two weeks from now. We will, though, have something we've not been able to do in quite a while on here: a trip into our Strategy Room to look at the field of finalists who will be headed to the start line to contest for the $1 million... that comes your way on Wednesday.

This does, though, clear the stage for us to give our attention on what's ahead: the new season of Ex On The Beach: Peak of Love kicking off this coming Thursday, and that will be the focus for the rest of this week's blog wave. A preview of the first American & international season of "The Ultimate Relations-XXX Show" is ahead, along with our traditional introduction to the new members of Team MTV and which single got to test out their dating skills on the new version of Blind Date.
   Meanwhile, we're in the midst of this 4-day extended holiday weekend and in case you're feeling curious about the days that kick off the holiday season: in 2013 we offered a primer on Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Small Business Saturday (that's today), Blackout Wednesday and the two busiest travel days of the whole year. From giving thanks to going shopping, read that post here and we hope to answer those questions you've got about the Holiday Madness.

And on that note of winter arriving, how about the wild weather we've been having? It's cold in just about everywhere in the country, and that includes a cold front gripping California and rain headed out west at the back end of this. One person who is feeling the joy of winter is the one & only Da'Vonne... we'll leave you with her embracing the snow and doing her own snow angel as we say, have a great Saturday everyone...
