Hello everyone and welcome -- to many of you, at least -- to winter break at the end of what has been some 2021. If you're one of those who loves wintertime in a TV sense, then we're in for quite the finish to this year in the reality world after the crowning of this year's Survivor winner, the fall's Masked Singer champ, and before Michelle chooses her Prince Charming on The Bachelorette. And this one right here will morph into Santa DC as yours truly has quite an offering of Christmas goodies in the week ahead both here on DCBLOG and over on YouTube, starting here and now as we begin to cover something that began all the way back in the heat of summertime in August.

Season 37 of MTV's The Challenge began just three nights after the cauldron was extinguished in Tokyo and, as it was for the world's best across the Pacific, it's a global competition that brought together reality stars from here in America and ten other overseas countries for $1 million... and plenty has gone down ever since. We fast-forward to when we were last in Croatia, where it was the season's last regular daily challenge and elimination round -- something that we at this site refer to as "semifinal week." And the focus was the last two remaining rookie men: her fellow Romanian Emmanuel and Spaniard Logan... and when they met in the Lair, it was the former who took the win delighting Emy.

In the end, everyone thought that they were safe to head on to the venue of the last act of this drama, but TJ Lavin gave the Romanians, Amanda, CT, Devin, Kaycee, Kyle, Nany, Nelson and Tori another one of those "Teej-bombs." And as we rejoin them here, a double elimination Purge will send two of those players above their marching orders just before the final challenge... and it's what happens in the Lair involving one who doesn't get chosen to go down into the arena that might be cause for concern in the house. And whoever survives the battles of a physical and mental nature will go onto the marathon for the cash, which may shape up to be anyone's game.

After the break -- and on a delayed, backtracked basis, DCBLOG brings you all the action, reaction and interaction of the first part of the finale of The Challenge: Spies, Lies and Allies... and we'll also delve into a possibility for what Season 38 might hold. And welcome to the weekend, Challenge Nation...


BEFORE THE FINALE... and Exes 3 for Season 38?  
@ChallengeMTV: It's a purge week! Who do you think will be going down into the Lair next? #TheChallenge37
@MTVDevinWalker: Still not stoked about “the night of eliminations” like really? Half the cast is in street clothes. Damn it. #TheChallenge37
@ChallengeMTV: Who wants another “Exes”? Sound off below on your favorite season!
- @PaulCalafiore_: @ChallengeMTV I’d like to formally apologize to Zakiyah for not saving her off the block when I had the veto to do it… and I’d also like to apologize to Danielle for absolutely nothing, I’m still with that “MTV Whore” you hate 
- @angelababicz: @ChallengeMTV We’ve only been begging for years 
- @meeshfitz: @ChallengeMTV This is a terrifying thought…
- @case_coop: @ChallengeMTV We’ll take a Fresh Meat 3 too… just when you have a chance 
- @SHOTOFYAGER: @case_coop @ChallengeMTV We just had it. 19 rookies! 
- @d_e_r_e_kc: @ChallengeMTV Yes please
- @TripleBeees: @ChallengeMTV 1st time me and jazzy got shafted
- @VMilerman: @ChallengeMTV Clickety clack the bad bitch is back  hiiii it’s meeeeeee
- @CohenBrian_: @ChallengeMTV Every season of The Challenge should be the style of “Free Agents” with varying ways of how you get sent into elimination. Anything else creates forced/fake relationships/dynamics.
- @kmacisco: @ChallengeMTV I do because I qualify as an ex to a challenger 
@TheAllanAguirre: Need to update this, but seeing Exes 3 trend on the timeline.   Building the Best Realistic MTV Challenge Exes 3 Cast  https://t.co/QRPelHVr45
@angelababicz: I shoot my shot by following you.. if you don’t see me amongst your hundreds of thousands of followers that’s on you babes
@angelababicz: Nothing tickles my pickle like seeing my ex molly wop someone over me whatever you do, do not get beat up over me that’s embarrassing babe xx
@MTV_AMANDAG: @joss_mooney start training it’s go time baby
- @joss_mooney: @MTV_AMANDAG Haha, I didn’t stop, get your sneaks on Mandy pants...
@MTV_AMANDAG: @fessyfitness And that’s something to be proud of?
@MTV_AMANDAG: @JOSHMBB19 and @fessyfitness You’d have a whole squad too 
@MTV_AMANDAG: It’s old news y’all
@MTV_AMANDAG: People really grabbin at straws at this point. LOL.
@NataliaNegrotti: My thing is ppl point fingers where they shouldn’t be pointing. Maybe point those fingers at the person u trusted who was actin single behind ur back so much no one knew u were in the picture. I’m a girls girl not a home wrecker if I knew the truth nothing would have happened
- @MTV_AMANDAG: LOL sis here’s the messages we exchanged where I’m clearly not pointing the fingers at you Face with monocle you called me and we had a good conversation….obviously so cuz you follow me on IG & comment love on my pics Woozy face You said you didn’t want any drama and neither did I. So what’s changed?
   Ohhhhh ya cuz the challenge released the exes video. Listen girl I don’t need any fake drama so try it with someone else. I never had a problem with you and still don’t. Get a callback on someone else’s account LOL
- @MTVDevinWalker: @MTV_AMANDAG @NataliaNegrotti Me and fessy were also together at this time so f both of you
- @MTV_AMANDAG: @NataliaNegrotti Also take note of the dates. Like I said….Old newsssss. 
- @johnnybananas: @MTV_AMANDAG Sounds like we need to get to the bottom of this Face with monocle And I think I know the PERFECT venue!!! Death, EXES, and Bananas Pod @ringer
- @MTV_AMANDAG: @johnnybananas @ringer Okay fine only if we can talk about your guys’ fake date 
- @johnnybananas: @MTV_AMANDAG But @usweekly printed an article about it... How could it be fake? Then maybe you can give me YOUR secrets on dating!!! You've been on a real hot streak lately #DeathTaxesBananas @ringer
- @MTV_AMANDAG: @johnnybananas @usweekly @ringer Hahahahahhahaha okay sounds good. Talk soon 
- @johnnybananas: @MTV_AMANDAG It's a date 
@finaIRECKONlNG: Fessy has good taste at least 
@GamerVev: Anyone acting up on social media since calls have went out or Exes has been announced should NEVER be invited back - they’re what has ruined this show 
- @Zakaria_Boumaza: @GamerVev The only people that have ruined the show are the ones who talk shit, bring unnecessary drama & social media gangsters but when it comes to performing at the challenge they SUCK Y’all figure out who those are 
- @GamerVev: @Zakaria_Boumaza We don’t care about competitors. This is a reality show, not a sports series.
- @hughie_maughan: @GamerVev This was my whole argument at reunion that it's a TV show not the Olympics
- @_zVert: @hughie_maughan Yes it’s a show but some people show up to compete and win the million, it’s been a competitive ass show since its beginning and built itself on the level of competition which you don’t see anywhere else on tv, the people that go for vacation are the ones you don’t see come back
- @LegarouXo: @GamerVev And this is not the real housewives of MTV or the real world Winking face this is a show about competing and yes with drama and shit We hv ppl who runa their mouth in confessionals and cant get on a ladder 
- @dumplindaughter: @GamerVev As long as production has a heavy hand in physical competitions the cast needs to be cast for that with the balance of dramatics. Right now most are either all athletic or all dramatic making for a trash show. So, the complaints can come all day or stop watching.
- @BulldogBytesMan: @GamerVev Why the hell can't we have both?  It absolutely is a competition, with a heavy helping of reality TV drama. Let's find the people who are good at both parts, like many of the seasoned Vets.
@angelababicz: Did I miss the opportunity to Twitter tussle with my exes or???? 

@ChallengeMTV: Happy Birthday to our favorite host, @tjlavin! We love you just as much as you love trivia. 
- @d_e_r_e_kc: @ChallengeMTV Happy bday @tjlavin

@GamerVev: The CBS cast members get MULTIPLE opportunities outside of that network, and have literally RUINED MTV. Nobody is asking for them back… Yet the MTV cast is paid DUST & never provided with any CBS or other opportunities, and they carry the show  Viacom is TRASH 🗣🗣🗣  @ViacomCBS

@BunimMurray: What are your #Challenge37 predictions
@kmacisco: I made it to season 10 (of 21) of Geordie Shore and I’m not sure how my brain hasn’t melted yet. Buzzin!!!
@TheRealNiaMoore: All I want for Christmas is... For y’all to give people room to grow. I get it—villains are amusing. But they often don’t knowingly choose that path. So when they decide to take another route, give them grace to do so. That last chapter of their story is just as worthwhile
@TheRealNiaMoore: Perspective is everything. I cried the most this year out of any year I can remember...and still.... 2021 turned out to be one of the greatest years of my life. Mannnn I had a ball. Good, bad and ugly combined...I would rewatch this one over and over 
- @JustJem24: @TheRealNiaMoore I LOVE this. You deserve all the good that came your way and all the good that will continue to comeeeee!

@CoreyLay: Whew. Amanda v Tori. #TheChallenge37

@MTV_AMANDAG: Can’t wait to tell y’all on live why they all actually voted for me #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: Ahahahahaha carry me to the ball #TheChallenge37
@ChallengeMTV: Amanda's trying to secure the bag not for herself, but for her son's future. #TheChallenge37  (GIF: "I'm here fighting for my son.")
@MTV_AMANDAG: She’s twice my size and I’m ready to SCRAP BITCH. #TheChallenge37
@DerrickMTV: Oh shit! We about to see the female version of CT/Johnny Backpack?! #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: Not Tori straight up carrying Amanda hahahahaha   #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: I was hoping for a puzzle since this elimination before was physical. Buuuuut I got fucked. LOL #TheChallenge37
@AlupeiEmy: I love you @MTV_AMANDAG #TheChallenge37
- @MTV_AMANDAG: @AlupeiEmy Love you sister you deserve to go to the final  KILL IT SIS
@CoreyLay: Aww. I love that tender moment between Tori and Amanda after the elimination #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: Nelson I had no idea what the elimination was gunna be dummy #TheChallenge37

@MTV_AMANDAG: Ima go home and be a #1 mom LETS GOOOOO #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: There’s a lot they didn’t show as to why I was voted in and who I chose. TUNE IN TONIGHT TO MY ONLY FANS TO HEAR THE TEA ON MY LIVE #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: Being put down in to an elimination twice in a row. Sheesh. #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: No one knew it was gunna be physical…..I wonder if the guys will get the same  #TheChallenge37
@hammertownspts: @MTVDevinWalker @AaronGagnon9 We are locked in on this. Know literally nothing about either team but feel like it’s the Lock of the century.
@bls78momma: Can't wait to see what happens tonight on #challenge37 . Do @MTVDevinWalker & @TheOfficial_CT make it through????
@ZacTMorrison: I swear you dudes better keep @MTVDevinWalker name OUT OF YOUR MOUTH TONIGHT
@MTVDevinWalker: LETS FUCKING GO
@ChallengeMTV: Idk I feel like Devin’s really excited about this decision.  #TheChallenge37  (GIF: "Uncool.")
@MTV_AMANDAG: Guys there’s a BIG reason why what happened tonight did. (Stuff going on back home.) Tune in to OF tonight for my live to explain #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: WOWWWWW the guys get a puzzle. Interesting…  #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: Let’s go @MTVDevinWalker #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: Three puzzles?! #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: Wowwwww Tory helping Eman over Devin. WOW. JUST WOW. #TheChallenge37
@DerrickMTV: Back to back eliminations for @emanuelvampire in the same night?!!! YUCK!! #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: F A K E #TheChallenge37
@DerrickMTV: Should giving answers from the crowd be considered cheating and not allowed?? Yeah or nah?? #TheChallenge37
@ChallengeMTV: These puzzles got me thinking I need to brush up on my skills too.  #TheChallenge37
@TwoStrongHands: Emanuel looking at his puzzle  #TheChallenge37
@JOSHMBB19: So fucking proud of Devin Raising hands my boy has killed it all szn  #TheChallenge37
@DerrickMTV: @MTVDevinWalker stays impressive #TheChallenge37 
@ChallengeMTV: "@challengemedad: I've never been more pumped watching people solve a puzzle #thechallenge #thechallenge37" RT I'd be lying if I said I wasn't screaming at my TV during that elimination.  #TheChallenge37
@JOSHMBB19: I’m so fucking happy to see all of my friends in that final man so deserving  #thechallenge37
@CoreyLay: It's final time! Whew. Let's see how this goes #TheChallenge37
@AlupeiEmy: Dreams come true  final babyyyy #TheChallenge37 @ChallengeMTV
@ChallengeMTV: And just like that, we have our top 8 agents who are headed to the final!  Did your faves make it to the end? Eyes #TheChallenge37  (GIF: TJ - "You've each won a ticket to my final.")
- @_nelsonthomas: @ChallengeMTV Let’s gooo!!!’
@Humble_demeanor: The MVP of @ChallengeMTV this season is @MTV_AMANDAG. She carried this season. 
@MTV_AMANDAG: Aw Kaycee and Nanys moment  is 3rd time the charm?????? #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: LETS GO EMY TAKE THE W #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: Aw Nelly loves his mama. so cute. Good luck Nelson. KILL IT BROTHER #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: It's crazy to me how many vets in this final didn't go in to an elimination once or even have to worry about potentially going in to one this season. Good work on their part but holy fucking shit did us rookies drop the ball. #TheChallenge37
@ChallengeMTV: Me anytime I'm about to get my Self-Care Sunday on.  #TheChallenge37  (GIF: Nelson - "Let's go")
@MTV_AMANDAG: YES KYLE DO IT FOR YOUR BABY!!!! Let’s goooo! #TheChallenge37
@DerrickMTV: SHOUTS to the mom love and all the 2 job moms @_nelsonthomas! One love #TheChallenge37
- @_nelsonthomas: @DerrickMTV Thank you bro !!!!
@ChallengeMTV: LET'S GOOOOOO!!!  #TheChallenge37  (GIF: TJ - "Welcome to the Final!")
@CoreyLay: Losing Michaela first, then Kelz (my fault sorry), then me was a death sentence for a rookie alliance. The people who were going to lead a rebellion other than Priscilla were taken down so quickly that the rookies were never going to gain momentum. #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: GOOD JOB PUZZLE KING @_nelsonthomas #TheChallenge37
- @_nelsonthomas: @MTV_AMANDAG I don’t think I earn that title but thank you!!!
@ChallengeMTV: Nany's got her eye on the prize. #TheChallenge37  (GIF: "I don't think I've ever wanted the Challenge champ title as badly as I do now.")
@dwaynepaul06: Nelson running to the helicopter #TheChallenge37 #Thechallenge
@CoreyLay: "@MrsHew: @CoreyLay Like Oprah says “when you know better, you do better” CT is my love but I’m honest enough to know you or Kelz were his only threat!" RT We might've been the only ones bold enough to actually make a move against CT too. I respect CT a lot but he's obviously the biggest threat so letting him make it to a final with no resistance is risky. #TheChallenge37
@DerrickMTV: Whatre those things called again ??? Hand Held Wave Runners??#TheChallenge37
@ChallengeMTV: *my fear of heights has entered the chat* #TheChallenge37  (GIF: Kyle - "Please go down")
@DerrickMTV: Moms and Grandma’s One love @AlupeiEmy!  #TheChallenge37
@MTV_AMANDAG: NELSON IN 1ST LETS GOOOO #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: CT really is built different. I'd run next to him on the treadmill in the house and even after he'd been fasting I'd still struggle to keep up with his endurance  #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: I like seeing different people take the lead at these various checkpoints. The win could come down to just about anything #TheChallenge37
@ChallengeMTV: Anytime maps decides to reroute itself 🗺 #TheChallenge37 (GIF: CT - "I don't exactly know where to go")
@DerrickMTV: Puzzles always got me lost in the sauce…hbu?? #TheChallenge37
@DerrickMTV: WYLD TWIST for the Final #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: Ahhhhhh I don't want to wait until next week for part 2  #TheChallenge37
@CoreyLay: I didn't last very long yet I still had the single most impressive physical win this entire season of The Challenge. The episode only showed it once but it was actually best of 3 and I pulled everyone off that platform twice in a row.  #TheChallenge37
@ChallengeMTV: We're only getting started. Smiling face with horns Tune in next week for Part Victory hand of #TheChallenge37 Season Finale to find out who will be crowned a Challenge Champion! 

@ChallengeMTV: ICYMI: Part 1 of #TheChallenge37 season finale was INTENSE.

@GamerVev: Survivor finale airs during the same time as Challenge finale next week? We won! Make sure to tune into Survivor finale on CBS & then The Challenge All Stars 2 on MTV next week 
@TheAllanAguirre: Amanda's Reaction to Nelson refusing to vote her into Elimination even though he knows everyone else is going to anyway. MY RIVALS 3 CHAMPIONS >>>  #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @biabertoche: @TheAllanAguirre Tori fucked Devin over the entire season and he still voted Amanda in, what a joke 
- @ChanclaSurvivor: @TheAllanAguirre It’s amazing to me how deep Amanda’s loyalty is. Nany voted for her and that would have been her best match up yet she still didn’t pick her.
@TheAllanAguirre: Nany got PTSD from getting eliminated right before the Final so many times that she can't believe Amanda didn't call her out. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @kaylanc89: @TheAllanAguirre Hell Nany even knows she was the best choice. Physical or puzzel nany was the choice. Amanda messed up.
@TheAllanAguirre: Would it have been smarter for Amanda to call Nany into elimination? Yeah. However, it would be wildly inconsistent with who Amanda is. Amanda swings big, and she's ready to deal with repercussions of her actions. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @Lee35418139: @TheAllanAguirre Not the smartest move when you’re trying to win a million for your child
- @TheAllanAguirre: @Lee35418139 Well do you wanna face Tori in a final or in elimination where's she crumbled a ton
- @FollowMyBehind: @TheAllanAguirre I still don't get her beef with Tori, but I have so much respect for Tori for not giving into any childish antics. Like, talk about me on social media...I get shit to do...like eliminate you lol
- @Jonaessa: @TheAllanAguirre The smarter decision would have been for the vets to vote in the last rookie. I said what I said.
- @kinggike: @Jonaessa I think Emy would’ve called out and beat Amanda in that elimination regardless
- @Bwendyh: @TheAllanAguirre She should have called nany down, then she would be running a final where who knows what would happen.   Instead we have nany dragging up the rear yet again.   Nany is a sweety but be carried to the finals season after season just to show why you shouldn't be there embarrassing
- @marcusXmalcom: @TheAllanAguirre Amanda been playing this game for how long   Why shouldn’t she call out nani. Nani hasn’t done anything this season plus she doesn’t evt like amanda.
- @miyahmay: @marcusXmalcom Yeah but let’s be honest even nany will beat her. Big t way literally the only person she could possibly beat
@kmacisco: I hate saying this but Nelson is right #TheChallenge37
@TheAllanAguirre: It seems fitting that Amanda carried the entertainment and drama for this season, and now she gets carried in Elimination. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
@Juanderful19: The challenge ain’t shit lmaoooo #TheChallenge37
@TheAllanAguirre: Amanda never had a shot in this elimination. Tori is simply bigger, stronger, and faster. Tori was always going to get the ball first, and Amanda could only play defense. There's a 40-45 lb difference. Tori is a headbanger beast. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @PolakSki18: @TheAllanAguirre Yea the second that said u had to grab the drone thing i knew Amanda had no chance unfortunately woulda like to see how she would have done in a final
- @TheAllanAguirre: @PolakSki18 She would have had a better shot in straight up Balls In. At least there you can be crafty. In this one, whoever gets ball first dictates direction
- @CFan899: @TheAllanAguirre They don't know the elimination before closing, @MTV_AMANDAG became a fan of yours tonight, being a strong single mom is so inspirational #TheChallenge37
@TheAllanAguirre: Thank you, Amanda Garcia. You had a kid, worked on the front-line in the Pandemics, and still found the time to come back and carry the Entertainment of this season. Go out an be the #1 Mom.  #TheChallenge  #TheChallenge37  #MilfOfTheYear
- @moonsovermiham1: @TheAllanAguirre @MTV_AMANDAG She definitely didn't work on the front lines, she said that for pity.  She decided to take her "career" and take photos for the scrub line. She got knocked up by a broke barber and got left and now she makes that her only personality trait.
- @thechallenge012: @moonsovermiham1 Are you jealous your girl can’t get a real job? Why hate on Amanda for working the front lines like you just look really dumb trying to hate on someone for having a real job 
- @moonsovermiham1: @thechallenge012 She... is a receptionist at a hospital lol why do y'all think she did anything Covid
- @thechallenge012: @moonsovermiham1 How do you claim to hate Amanda but keep up with her life?? Face with tears of joy she’s literally a nurse babe you don’t have to create false narratives
- @moonsovermiham1: @thechallenge012 Sure, a nurse, that works at the front desk of a hospital hahahaha and uses her title of "nurse" to sell scrubs for brands hahaha
- @thechallenge012: @moonsovermiham1 Keep being a fan Face throwing a kiss
- @moonsovermiham1: @thechallenge012 I will continue to be a fan of everyone but Amanda thank you!!
- @thechallenge012: @moonsovermiham1 Okay.. your Twitter is filled with everything about Amanda.. I literally see you coming up on all her comments on her tweets .. you keep up with her personal life and everything. That’s a fan babe 
- @moonsovermiham1: @thechallenge012 Because I scrolled her IG once and saw her using her title as a way to do brand deals for scrubs, ok. She talks about being a mom all the time. And her break up with her baby daddy was everywhere. Fuck Amanda, she was the worst this season and I can commentate all the fuck I want
@TheAllanAguirre: I've been shitting on Devin a lot lately, but as someone who is Dyslexic myself, I'm happy to see him talk about it as both a Gift and a Curse. So for the next 25 minutes, I will be rooting for Devin and the Dyslexics of the world. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
@TheAllanAguirre: Nelson would give Cory a Kidney if he asked for one. He cannot comprehend Tori trying to help Emanuel in elimination after calling Devin her #1 Guy all season. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @_Hoove: @TheAllanAguirre Now you know Nelson does not have the brains to be helping Cory, he’d rather go in himself 
- @jayayeeelisa: @TheAllanAguirre I can’t comprehend how she threw a fit about Devin going in and then started helping Emanuel…? Like what?
- @MyaIrving4: @jayayeeelisa I mean she wanted both of them to win but Devin has more alliances with others , while Emanuel would save Tori b4 saving most ppl in that house .
@TheAllanAguirre: Nelson keeps calling her "Typical Tori" It is the laziest nickname ever, and yet I can't stop laughing. Typical Tori is always being sneaky as fuck towards her "friends" #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @RealityTvMimi: @TheAllanAguirre Nelson is so simple when he talks sometimes. Yet I still have the ordacity  to love him 
- @miyahmay: @TheAllanAguirre The “friend” that got mad at her for helping her team win? I occasionally like dev but him getting mad at her wad bullshit
- @stoffmakers: @TheAllanAguirre Love how often Nelson uses the word foul too, at least multiple times a season between the actual show and aftermath/reunions
@TheAllanAguirre: 20 Rookies this season, and Emy is the only one to make the Final. Good for her. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @Kealeboga_Kee: @TheAllanAguirre Emy is a great competitor. I just dont know why she isn’t likeable 
- @mslizzymac20: @TheAllanAguirre She's the only one to make the final because she's won 4 eliminations! This girl had to fight her way in! She deserves to be in the finals. It's bullshit that Emmanuel had to go in twice in 1 night! The vets need to grow some balls! I wish eliminations were mandatory again!
@TheAllanAguirre: CT has qualified for his 10th Challenge Final. The most Final Appearances of any competitor All-Time. A win would be the first time he's won 2 in a row, and would put him at 5 Total, second all-time behind Bananas (7) #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @BirdlandMlark: @TheAllanAguirre CT is better.  Bananas had a lot on teams when there were like 8 ppl on a finale team.
- @TheAllanAguirre: @BirdlandMlark Bananas only has 2 team wins. I mean both are not even in the conversation for me.
- @MontenegroMatt: @TheAllanAguirre Bananas can thank evan and kenny for a few of those. Ct should have 6 if it wasnt for Adam throwing that rivals challenge.
- @kcdageneral56: @MontenegroMatt And the 7 if it wasn’t for the stupid clip breaking when he was demolishing Brad
- @ahorugger09: @TheAllanAguirre How many individual/partner wins for each and how many team wins for each? Not that it makes that big of a difference, but I think that would be a big determinate as to who is my Goat.
- @BismoFunyunsII: @TheAllanAguirre We need another Bananas CT match up to see who the real GOAT is. My money is on CT
@TheAllanAguirre: CT watching everyone still talking about the Devin/Emanuel elimination knowing damn well he's gonna eat their asses up in the Final. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @RyanMichelle418: @TheAllanAguirre I’m glad this season is finally on the last episodes, now I can watch again just to see the final 
@kelsialexander_: Me trying to keep up with all the challenge cast member tea the last couple of days:
@TheAllanAguirre: Nany and Kaycee really been having a lot of fun on this season of Are You The One #TheChallenge37    #TheChallenge
- @heaven_or_hell5: @TheAllanAguirre Not lying when I say your tweets are the highlight of the challenge this season
@Irving_A07: Emy can’t finish this puzzle because CT is not there to help her  #TheChallenge #TheChallenge37
@Irving_A07: I thought Devin was the “puzzle king”  #TheChallenge #TheChallenge37
@Irving_A07: Nany flopping in the final already?!  #TheChallenge #TheChallenge37
@rainbr0jesus: vet men: i would love to run a final with ct!! yay teams!!  tj: this final is individual like we always do now bc the old, fun challenge is dead and so are team finals  vet men: #TheChallenge37
@TheAllanAguirre: The Editors throwing in a CT Thirst-Trap Mid-Final  They don't want to  lose the already dwindling viewership.  #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
@MikeyG_TBD: TJ’s appreciation for Amanda made me tear tf up. FINALLY she gets her due appreciation because she bodied this season. #TheChallenge37
- @Malik_MTV: @MikeyG_TBD Love to see it.  She really won me over that season
- @suzmac33: @MikeyG_TBD Me too. End of the day I want to see her do well and be appreciated. It’s like watching your annoying little sister grow up and get her life in order. She ain’t so bad.
@TheAllanAguirre: We found out recently that Kaycee had a Broken Toe and it's evident. She isn't moving anywhere as quickly as she usually does. Could be a little bit of trauma from her Final Injury last season where she doesn't want to rush things. #TheChallenge37  #TheChallenge
@TheAllanAguirre: Nelson has the best cardio for this final, but mentally, he's a bum. Devin is also mentally a bum, but he's good with puzzles, he just has no cardio. CT is awesome at both. Only way Dev/Nelly beat him is by the two fusing together. #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge
- @jojoTHATone: @TheAllanAguirre Didn’t he just win a puzzle??? Y’all and this Nelson is dumb narrative is getting weird….
@Irving_A07: Nelson is freaking fast he really needs to get his social/political game together and work on his puzzle skills #TheChallenge #TheChallenge37
@TheAllanAguirre: I JUST PUBLISHED: The Challenge Spies, Lies & Allies Episode 18 Recap & 10 Biggest Takeaways  #TheChallenge37   #TheChallenge https://t.co/vyJJdKgQ5x
- @TheAllanAguirre: EPISODE 18 RECAP -- I breakdown:  - Tori vs Amanda, - Devin vs Emanuel, - Typical Tori, - Final Part 1, - Fun Stats & Facts, - A Whole Lot More  #TheChallenge37  #TheChallenge
- @sinamavs4: @TheAllanAguirre Allan, I always look forward to your write ups. I’m truly appreciative.
- @TheAllanAguirre: @sinamavs4 Thank you so much.
- @Kaseyreneexoxo: @TheAllanAguirre Thank you for doing this because I can’t convince myself to watch anymore
@TheAllanAguirre: One of the weirdest things in the Challenge fandom is people giving CT Imaginary Championships that he did not win. "Well if he didn't get kicked off for fighting or if he didn't DQ himself in elimination, he'd have 3 more wins, so he's actually a 25x Champ"
- @justnate90: @TheAllanAguirre I agree. But with that being said, he might be the most complete, well rounded male challenger in the shows history
- @TheAllanAguirre: @justnate90 Jordan is right there. The guy 3 peated in the modern era which is unheard of. Way better daily challenge and elim stats and legit murdered both CT & Derrick while competing through a majority of it with the 3rd place female
- @SportsGuy1321: @TheAllanAguirre It’s a legitimate argument though
- @TheAllanAguirre: @SportsGuy1321 It isn't. Don't hit someone. Don't pick the elim where someone has DQed the same way already. Go into elim and beat Big Easy so he doesn't kill you in a final. The argument can work the other way too and you can remove wins.
- @ZachAFaulkner: @TheAllanAguirre It all boils down to people who are so desperate to discredit bananas that they have to twist reality to be like “ so you see in retrospect, CT has really won more seasons than Johnny”
- @TheAllanAguirre: @ZachAFaulkner I don't even like Bananas, but seeing people try to cherry pick wins is so weird. It's hard to get 1, let alone 4-7.
- @killjoys21424: @TheAllanAguirre If big eazy wasn’t a bum he would’ve had another one and if adam wouldn’t have thrown the elimination vs tyler and bananas , that’s another one too
- @TheAllanAguirre: @killjoys21424 He should've thrown himself in to face Big Easy if he wanted to win lmao
- @AmineGhourbal: @TheAllanAguirre Tbh in rivals 1 he had it in the bag if it wasn't for Adam in the last elimination
- @TheAllanAguirre: @AmineGhourbal They ended up in the elim bc he came in last in the daily.
- @GriitBall: @TheAllanAguirre it’s like how they hype up his elimination record, it is JUST NOW getting to an average place at best, yet these people swear he is a allat and a bag of chips when it comes to elimination like he didn’t lose a physical against a much smaller guy
- @missheartcore: @TheAllanAguirre I thought you meant for this season and I was like, Wait ummm...that's not imaginary. He really does run circles around the new school for the most part aside from that Elim against Jay were he wasn't even trying.
- @t_DeCarlo: @TheAllanAguirre Ct and bananas might be better in a final now more than ever. And yeah Jordan top 3 for sure
- @zachmerrill5: @TheAllanAguirre It’s just cause he’s such an absolute lock to win it all when he doesn’t get booted from the show
@bayy_casillass: So the GUYS get a puzzle ?!?!?!?! But the GIRLS got something physical!!??!? Yeah, production really wanted Tory to win  #TheChallenge37
- @kaylanc89: @bayy_casillass Jesus it was a physical mens elimination that probably went on for over an hour why would they do physical again? 1) two physical male eliminations in one night (that’s not fair) 2) why give the same type of game to the men so they know who to pick. Amanda got one layup elimi
- @bayy_casillass: @kaylanc89 Who cares about the Elim before. It the guys got a puzzle the girls could have easily had one too but make it different. Production wanted tory to win 
@finaIRECKONlNG: Devin getting a puzzle elimination and Tori getting a physical elimination (against Amanda). HMMMMM!!!! not suspicious. At all !!!!!  #TheChallenge37
- @JeaSole: @finaIRECKONlNG Nobody told Amanda to pick Tori, if she would’ve picked Nani, nothing would’ve been shady about that
@MikeyG_TBD: I find myself so detached from The Challenge tbh. It feels hard to root for anyone left if that makes sense. I’ll always love Nany, but idc if she can carry this final for me #TheChallenge37  The Challenge All Stars is completely different btw I look forward to seeing the next AS ep every week!
@_blureaper: I see they had the puzzles ready for CT just incase Face with rolling eyes
@_blureaper: CT’s elimination record is 6-5 and people still think he’s unbeatable. 
@CohenBrian_: No YOU were tearing up when someone was eliminated from The Challenge this week. #TheChallenge37

@ChallengeMTV: After being blindsided by her fellow vets, Amanda calls Tori down to the sand to see who will claim the last female spot in TJ's final. #TheChallenge37

@hughie_maughan: It literally goes to show you on shows like the challenge that it's not always talent and ability that can get you to the end, it's friendships and alliances that matters not what you can do @ChallengeMTV #thechallenge37

Mr. Big D was in the final as a rookie five years ago along with another icon of his AYTO season who will soon join her fellow Teen Moms for a vacation down south in the new year, and he's already in good spirits at the halfway point of this final with CT, Tori and Emy on Purple, and Kyle, Nelly and the lovebirds on Orange trailing. There's still a long way to go in this final, and we'll have the conclusion to all of this on the 'Pulse of the Spies, Lies & Allies finale coming up a bit later on here.

But first, there's the matter of offering plenty of holiday cheer when most of you are in need of it -- and there we have exactly that: a double serving of All-Stars with shock and heartbreak, a finale by the Shore, a finalist tackling that same fear of heights so many Challengers have had, and a Look Ahead at what may be next year's biggest reality crossover event. Not that many of you seem to mind about it, but we do want to apologize to those who have not been offered all these blog posts in a timely manner than what our competitors get to offer, but this is all for a good reason...

Next week, DC YouTube will awaken from almost a whole year's slumber of not offering regular vlogs to offer you "The Ultimate Escape." We'll be premiering this year's eagerly-anticipated DC VEGAS XI series this Thursday to begin your Christmas festivities... and as a bonus, the first half of DC Coast to Coast will wrap up with the last two videos of my 2008 New York trip Wednesday & Thursday prior to the season premiere on the Eve of Christmas Eve. And along with MTV coverage, we will have two #DCVegas blog posts to supplement what you'll be seeing coming up then.

So, half a dozen of these on this DCBLOG page, just as many (or even more) on the visual side of things on YouTube... we're all set for a Christmas bonanza on the DC Social Network. And we'll see you in the bit as our trip Inside MTV Reality continues. Enjoy your Saturday everyone...

- I AM DC  #DCBLOG
