Cara and Susie are targeted in their alliance in the next few episodes of the Gauntlet

Monday marks yet another new episode of the Gauntlet II. Again,
the following are spoilers for the episode. If you want to figure out what happens in this and future episodes, highlight the following text:

Like we mentioned last week, the Veterans will finally break their four game losing streak with a win on a female Gauntlet day. After the horrendous debacle that was the "alliance", Cara (South Pacific) and Susie (Australia) feel as if they are being ganged up on. Not only were they accused of an alliance, but they are the only non-Extreme females (Kina, Jodi, Ibis and Jillian) on the Rookie team. As a result, the two have become best friends on the Challenge, but feel alienated from the rest of their team. When the Rookies lose this mission, Kina keeps the promise she made in a previous episode and makes the decision to send Cara into the Gauntlet. Don't expect Cara to bow out of the Gauntlet so easily. She fights every inch of the way, but eventually is sent packing by Kina.

With only two female Gauntlets left, we can guarantee that the female Rookies will see the Gauntlet again. The question is: Will Kina option to completely destroy the Cara/Susie alliance?

Jodi clears the air between her, Danny, Adam, and Mark in the Gauntlet

Overdrive Episode Summary
Jodi (Extreme) | Tuesday February 7, 2006

Danny, Adam and Mark

So in this week's interview, everyone expected that Blair would get right into the juicy questions, but Jodi managed to avoid them altogether. She spoke briefly about her argument with Danny (Extreme) and how she was just sticking up for herself because he was yelling at her. Then they moved into her hookup with Adam (The Quest). In a previous show, Adam had already told Blair that they hooked up the first day. But when she said it never went past flirting, Blair just let it go. She then explained that the relationship between her and Mark (USA Tour 1) actually happened only a little before this show started taping. Mark actually wrote an email to her mom claiming that he was falling in love with Jodi. (She still has the email!) He lead her to believe that he was serious about her and then soon afterwards told her over the phone that he needed space. She never heard from him until the show, where it was thrown in her face that he was still interested in Robin (San Diego). -(submitted by Heather)

The Beat Blair Challenge

Blair competed against Jodi in a competition to see who could cry first. Overdrive put together video clips of Jodi crying over her reality television experiences which was very entertaining, and she was victorious over Blair.

Finally Blair wanted some dirt on the cast. Jodi participated in a word association game and these were her answers...

-Alcohol : Beer
-Landon (Philadelphia) : Cute
-Adam : Hot
-Alton (Las Vegas) : Hot
-Mark : Idiot
-Robin : Cool
-Danny : &*%$##
-Veronica (Semester At Sea) : Manipulative
-Rachel (Campus Crawl) : Strong
-Blair : Sweet -(submitted by James)

Then it was on to "Me No Likey". Jodi considers not doing what you say will do a deal breaker in a relationship. She also dislikes people reading over her shoulder (kind of a strange pet peeve) and when people complain.

Last but not least, we have the "Sh*t You Didn't See". First we see Landon, Jodi, Katie (The Quest), and Adam (Paris) doing some interesting dance moves. Then we see Jodi and Alton sleeping next to each other in bed all snug and comfy (I wonder what happened!). -(submitted by Ben H.)

Remember, Cara (South Pacific) will be appearing on Overdrive nexr week. This should be a doozy of an Overdrive. I'm also told that Comcast on Demand users can actually access episodes through their TV. Thanks for the visitors who submitted their reviews!

Jacinda will star in the Namesake and School for Scoundrels in the upcoming year

An update on one of the castmembers from the earlier seasons: Jacinda (London), who now has a career as a working actress in Hollywood has an impressive film schedule ahead of her this year. For those of you who remember, she had supporting roles in Ladder 49, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and The Human Stain. Jacinda is now starring in two of this year's highly anticipated films. She's the female lead in Wolfgang Petersen's remake of The Poseidon Adventure, appropriately titled Poseidon. The big budget remake follows a group of ship passengers who try to escape a capsized ship. Poseidon is set to be released on May 12, 2006. She was also cast as a lead alongside "Scrubs" star Zach Braff and "The OC's" Rachel Bilson in The Last Kiss. The film is about Braff's character straying away from his relationship with Jacinda's character, in order to have one last fling with Bilson's character. This film is scheduled to be released in the Fall. She's also scheduled to release two other films in 2006: The Namesake and School for Scoundrels. The latter stars Billy Bob Thorton and Napolean Dynamite's Jon Heder.

Also, we haven't received much of a response for reviews of Overdrive. Although we'd love to update for those of you who don't get Overdrive, we still need people to review the episodes (A quick paragraph would suffice). Use the "contact the blog" form to submit your review.

Trishelle is in the Lingerie Bowl as their star quarterback

In Super Bowl news, Trishelle (Las Vegas) participated in the third annual Lingerie Bowl, which is quickly becoming more and more popular every year. The Lingerie Bowl was launched three years ago as an alternative to the Super Bowl halftime show. Although many of you may have been flipping channels and didn't catch it, that's because it's only offered on pay-per-view. Sponsored by Bodog.com, this year's Lingerie Bowl also featured Jenny McCarthy, Cindy Margolis and "American Idol" vet Ryan Starr.

In Blog news, the "contact the blog" button on the left menu bar has been working wonderfully. We're getting a great response and we'd like to keep hearing from you. The number one comment is that people wish that they'd like to see the Blog updated daily. While we make every attempt to update as often as possible, there's often periods of slow news. So, if you think you have a news story you'd like to share with us, don't hesitate to use our contact form. Keep those emails coming!
