ROSE/ EXCEEDED TO MY EXPECTATIONS

TDI- All (this is the original season. You don't know what to expect to begin with.)

TDA- Harold just because this was his season and Lindsay (she went from sheep to shephard in this season.)

TDWT- Cody, Alejandro, Noah, and Heather

TDROTI- Mike, Zoey, Scott, Sam, Brick, and Jo

TDAS- Scott and Alejandro (if you compared AS to their debut seasons, they sunk. But they were higher then the rest, so... yeah.

TDPI- Shawn, Jasmine, and Sky

RR- Pretty much everyone except the ones who fell to my expectations.

FELL TO MY EXPECTATIONS

TDI- None (but if I had to pick just one, it'll be Courtney. She had a chance to win 2 challenges for her team but somehow godplayed to stay in. Also, this was definitely the hardest decision to make.)

TDA- Owen (in my opinion, worse performance then TDI) and Trent. (I would also include Gwen here, but she owed the Grips a favor because of Trent so that earned her off this list.)

TDWT- Personally, this is a better season then TDI. But the ones that fell were Duncan, Owen (better then Action to say the least, but not as good as Island), LeShawna, and Lindsay (she rose in Action, but fell to her ditzy self in this season.)

TDROTI- None. This is the first time where only new contestants compete. So you don't really know what to expect from them. And I can't choose if I can only pick one.

TDAS- Everyone except for Lindsay, Jo, Lightning, Alejandro and Scott. This is by far the worst season ever. I like all the castmates, but the storyline and the interactions, not to mention but how some of these eliminations went, I just felt like they weren't even trying this season.

TDPI- Dave (I was rooting for him until he went into this Sierra-type mode)

RR- Fashion Bloggers (I am neutral on them, but they should've stayed longer), LARPERS (If you are bringing an early out back into a different show, make sure you give more development), Geniuses (they were doing good until they spent more time planning then building), and Daters (I think these two should've made it to the final leg with the Best Friends and the Ice Dancers. But they had an unoriginal storyline. They broke up and reunite at the end of their time.)
