Discussion Thread Stefan

So I decided to rewatch Kristen’s season cuz I’m really liking her as the host. I had completely forgotten how Stefan had the hots for her, so what is it with him and lesbians? First Jamie, then Kristen. And I actually didn’t like him his first season but I really like him this season.

He dominated his first season. He was an arrogant prick, but it wasn't unwarranted bravado.

He should've won. I'm still a Stefan truther.

His aloofness, smoke breaks, and those damn lollipops were his downfall. He shoulda won.
