Battle of the Seasons (2002)[]

Best Known For: Always saying the wrong thing, but in a hilarious way.

Previous Record: (Out of 5 stars)

Crying: *

Fighting: ***

Hooking Up: ****

Athletic Ability: *****

(Ratings are based on previous seasons and are relative to other RW/RR cast members.)

The Gauntlet[]

Then: A strong teammate, Theo was the charming guy with a cute southern drawl who bonded with James, but fought with Holly. In the Battle of the Seasons, he and the "The Miz" were continually taunting each other.

Now: Theo's stand-up comedy has led him to "The American Variety Show," which he is doing with former Road Ruler Timmy. He has also served as the tour manager for Josh Kelly.

Relationships: He has been rumored to have had romances with several cast members, but never on camera.

Best Known For: His memorable quotables and his charm.

Battle of the Sexes 2[]

High: Always a strong teammate, Theo helped his team beat out the Real World on The Gauntlet. The resident "funny guy" (when Timmy's not around), Theo is generally liked and respected by everyone... so he usually makes it far on Challenges.

Lows: Losing to "The Miz" (his arch rival) and the Real World team in Cabo San Lucas during Battle of the Seasons.

Relationships: Rumor has it that Theo has dated several cast members, but unfortunately these romantic moments have never been caught on tape. We'll hopefully catch some on-camera hookups on this Challenge.

Fresh Meat[]

Always a strong teammate, Theo helped his team beat out the Real World on The Gauntlet. The resident "funny guy" (when Timmy's not around), Theo is generally liked and respected by everyone... so he usually makes it far on Challenges. Losing to the Real World team during Battle of the Seasons, he redeemed himself by winning Battle of the Sexes 2. Rumor has it that Theo has dated several cast members, but unfortunately the only romantic moments caught on tape were with Tonya. He describes their relationship during Battle of the Sexes 2 as, "two kids at a summer camp." Well, camp's back in session: will Tonya be his bunkmate this season or will there be another lucky camper?
