They sure didn't cast the show for looks. They ended up with those two weirdo dudes in the final three.

It was an unusually unattractive bunch overall for reality tv. Lots of really bad skin and bad hair.

Sam is gay and has a hipster beard. I don’t think that makes him look weird.

Phil is clearly nonbinary/genderqueer and almost certainly on some amount of estrogen. - I’m trans and it’s obvious to me.

I was so excited to see Ashley eliminated. I hope Mai wins it all.

She did it! Fairfax County resident just won $4.5 million. How about a kick down?

Gosh, I was so happy for her. Loved her glow-up at the end. Really not a fan of the other two finalists, was pulling for her.

I like how they handled the bridge crossing to make it more fair.
Looking forward to the last episode.

In the bridge crossing they used stunt doubles for the actual fall.

Did they really?

yes, a few players who are giving insider secrets on tiktok revealed how they did it. the players were asked to go from standing to crouching very quickly. they used that as the shot of them falling and then did far away shots of the actual stunt doubles doing the falling through part. pretty lame, honestly.

the platform had safety pillows and nets under it. why not just let the players actually fall?

They were given no makeup. They were all eventually given lip balm because their lips got so dry they were cracking. A bunch of players used condoms in the bathroom to lubricate their lips, according to a few players. That's when the producers passed out lip balm.

The players shared that they were given a wooden toothbrush, tube of toothpaste, hand sanitizer, and a comb. In the bathroom they had communal soap, bodywash, and shampoo for everyone to use. If a player wore contacts they were allowed to have those and solution was provided in the bathroom.

That's it. They couldn't bring anything else. They got their green tracksuit washed once. They were given a few pairs of clean underwear and white tees but not enough to change daily.

I saw some red carpet pics and the cast cleans up pretty well and seemed attractive when made up.

...Why do they have condoms but not lipchap?

Did anyone else wonder if the final three button challenge was rigged to get Mai into the final?
