Behind the Screen: Finding Carter

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

I thought it was amazing. I don't understand why people watch a show every week to hate on it and then go out of their way to comment about it...

So...what is everyone's theory for what happened between Lori and David? They clearly have some sort of past. I think that he had an affair with her, but she had a miscarriage, and left her when he found out that Elizabeth was pregnant. And perhaps, David was leaning towards staying with Lori, and she couldn't take it knowing that they were supposed to have a future (and kids) together.

I haven't gotten a chance to watch the show yet, but I will soon. I got to play the Pizza Delivery Guy in episode 6, haha. The cast is really cool and Kathryn Prescott was super awesome.

I also have a friend who has been an extra on Finding Carter quite a few times. She's been in the school scenes and was at the birthday party. I'm trying to upload pics but it won't let me upload a jpg. 

Tvandcoffee#97

i know, I'm getting beyond annoyed with that. It's not like there's another option on your phone to change the type of photo smh. But that's awesome. Was she a fan of the cast as well?

Here's the thing...it said they knew each other since 97...so assuming it takes place in this current year, with the girls being 16....that would mean they were born in 98. So either Elizabeth got pregnant in 97/98. So she could have been a side chick, or maybe the original girlfriend, then they had some falling out and he got with Elizabeth and got her pregnant while still dealing with Lori. Whatever it is, she seems to think Elizabeth knows who she is which she clearly doesn't . But also, what kinda guy let's his ex into his home with wife to play with his kids?!

I agree with your last point. That's the one thing I've had trouble trying to figure out. I was reading an article last night that had a bunch of theories, and the one that really opened up my eyes was, what if David paid Lori to kidnap his daughter so that he could get his big break as an author. Personally, I don't think that's what happened, but I don't think that we can rule it out.

Do you have a link to the article? I'd really enjoy reading it!

I'm not sure if it's the same trailer I saw, but it seems like they're not really showing anything new beyond her being kidnapped right? At least I didn't see that...I have to figure they have lots of storylines Theyre just not using in promos, kinda like the challenge does with just the minimal amount of clips

Tvandcoffee#108

Finally saw the commercial. So I wonder if Theyre not actually twins but half sisters? 

Tvandcoffee#109

Anybody wtch the first eight minutes ?

TwoStrikes#110

Episode was good. I wasn't expecting that to be the case of what happened. Interesting. 

1.099 viewers, 0.5 in the demo. 

Not too bad for MTV

badladjj#111

I'm kinda obessesed with this show now! It's a lot better than I thought Smile

Challengefan134#112

I love this show

Tvandcoffee#113

Sooooo by looking at sneak peaks...

i think max will not in a few episodes. Seems like he takes a break from them and Taylor gets curious with bird and oofi, looks like she takes a drug possibly? . Really sad as max is my favorite. He was originally supossed to die in season one, glad he didn't! 

Sick of crash drama...bad boy boyfriend is so played out...she's written as a strong character but she goes back to the guy who shot max?! WTF

I think Lori seduced the father, convinced him to leave Lori and take the kids, he chickened out so she took Carter, and the father took it as a chance to capitalize and become an established writer.

for being the top trending on Twitter that night, I'm shocked it was only a .5 in ratings...MTVs doing very poorly...

Nostalgic#114

well with shows like thios one what do you expect. hopefully when tw and scream come around it does better.

Tvandcoffee#115

If I remember correctly, wasn't it pulling higher ratings first season? 

Challengefan134#116

Who watched last nights episode.. It was so good but heartwrenching at the same time... RIP Kyle
