I forgot how intense the show is. One team eliminated before they even left the starting location.

Don't really have a favorite yet. Anyone else watching?

I remember liking this show but never have time to follow it. I saw about the last 30 min today. Don't know about any of the teams but wish they would show more of the sites, less of the teams. I thought the duck challenge was a really good one.

They were calling the guy with asberger's syndrome "the duck whisperer" because he was so good at it, lol.

Isn't that the show where they change camera angles (literally) every three seconds even if all the racers are doing is trying to walk a horse around a barrel?

nice twist kicking the yogurts off before they got started
the poker girls got outed by a fan in Tokyo , that was funny
my kids really liked the wheel of fish game show, ie roulette of sushi

can you believe they did the clue in a haystack again
that is sick and wrong
i knew it would be a non elimination round if they didn't have someone get stuck on it


last week- too bad the poker chicks didn't have enough muscles, but they got dicked by both challenges needing physical strength and the wind, they might have finished the golf if the wind wasn't blowing

I saw that and thought it was pretty unfair how all of the other teams had a male for either of the very physical challenges.

One thing I was saying after the show, was that they were dumb to skip the bell attempt and deliberately take a time penalty and continue onto the dance... i would think that the time they spent deliberately traveling to the other challenge and all the changing of clothes, would've taken much longer than just taking any penalty

Thanks for bumping my thread, I meant to search for it but forgot.

Even with the hay bales, this last episode seemed way too easy. Filling bags with sand is a PITA but it takes no brains.

If Wikipedia is to be believed not completing a Detour is a 24-hr penalty. I don't think there would be much point in continuing even if it was a non-elimination.

I just can't get excited about these teams. I wish I had watched the older seasons.

I think Megan and Cheeyeyeeenneee have a good chance of winning.

they winned
they were the best of the three, although Cheeyeyeeennee keeping his eyes closed all the way down the building showed his true colors

the brothers had cry baby DAN, so i didn't want them to win
Brian & Ericka, Ericka was a big baby and gave up too many times

Do they still have those road blocks that require teams to sit there for hours, for no other reason than to let the other teams catch up? I remember things like that before. Kinda ruined the race.
