What a complete waste of time! I usually enjoy at least part of the memory lane thing, but with the exception of a couple of clips, it was hardly anything entertaining. They barely even mentioned Blue (even when talking about Jared) or Izzy (except when talking about Cirie and Jared), hell Cameron and Bowie didn't hardly get much of a mention. But boy they had all the time in the world for Cirie and the Matt/Jag bromance of course. They usually include a bit about the punishments like the kayak, the Josh cut-out and the pig suits, but I think we saw 1 brief picture of the kayak and 1 brief picture of Matt entering the DR with the cutout and that was it. Even Meme got more air time than Izzy or Cory and they were much more involved in things than she was for sure.
I thought the video clips from home left a lot to be desired. They seemed kind of rushed or shortened or something. Matt's mom looked like a hostage video or something. Maybe she was nervous but you would think she has been exposed to some of this kind of thing with Matt being an Olympian. Jag's sister was really sweet and animated, but her husband looked like a statue until the very end of it. You could definitely see where Bowie gets the constant smile, because that was her parents too, but it was just kind of superficial to me.
And not letting us see more of the comp highlights like it is some secret about who won is ridiculous. My husband had a great idea that they should have said at the close of the episode that you could go to the live feeds and watch the comp play out, even though it wasn't live, they could just roll the damn tape and let us watch it. But that takes some imagination to come up with something different to shake things up.
