Amazing Race 11 - All Stars (begins 2/18/07)

[azgal81]

I am on the cruise right after you and I was thinking the first few weeks that I was going to miss the ending - I feel better that I might see it. I hope you do too.

Anyone know for sure??

It's May 6 I posted it two posts up!

The one team that I cannot stand is the Blondes. Ever since they asked "Which country is London in?" I have thought they were dumb as rocks....the smugness didn't help either. DH and I were really rooting for O and D, until they made that cheap deal with the blondes, so we don't like them anymore either. All I can say is karma is a *****.

Go Eric and Danielle!

I would rather see the deal than have them begging in the streets for cash. That always bothered me in prior seasons.

I was composing as you were posting - thanks.

EKF should see it too - if she is all packed by then

Well I must say I'm shocked. I guess I haven't been paying attention because I didn't realize there was still another non-elim leg. But I'm glad D/O are still in it. And I'm thrilled that the BQs are in first. Not sure who I want to come in 3rd. I don't really like the other two teams but I have to give both of them props.

I have to say I was a little disappointed in D/O and the BQs though. They could have just paid them not to yield them. They didn't have to yield someone else. And I love how Mirna was complaining about them yielding and then saying she would have given them money. Yeah right. When it comes down to this point in the game, there are no favors. And Mirna benefitted just as much from that Yield as anyone so you know she was happy.

They know where London is. In that episode they were flying to a different country via London and it was way out of the way. That quote was taken completely out of context by many people. They were just clarifying where they were going because it didn't seem right to them to be flying to London, England.

I'd like anyone but Eric and Danielle to win, he's such a caveman and he's used just about every stereo-type that exists to insult people. Calling the Guido's queens, the BQ's dirty hookers and ho's etc..... Danielle isn't much better she seems like such a pampered princess.

I'd like to see Charla and Mirna or the Beauty queens win, go girls!

According to tvguide.com the finale is May 6th!

YAY! I think during the Panama Canal cruise we missed either that finale or the Survivor finale (OH NO! When it that one!)

LOL... I got 4 more days after that! LOTS of time

Did you all catch the BQ's talking to E&D, telling them about the deal O&D made with them? Unbelievable! They completely lied! The BQ's paid for the chance to use the yield again. They told O&D who to use it on!

I for one am thrilled O&D are still in it!!!

And I love how Mirna was complaining about them yielding and then saying she would have given them money. Yeah right.

I think she was sincere when she said that. Charla also said they would have given them money. Say what you will about the accents, the craziness, etc, I think that deep down C&M are decent people.

If you read post race interviews and watch the videos and even the in-show confessionals, other racers have more nice things to say about them than bad.

I will be happy right now no matter who wins, but I wish Danielle could win without having to share the money with Eric. I'd like to see them cross the finish line and have Phil say "X number of countries, X number of miles, Eric and Danielle... you are the winners of The Amazing Race. But Danielle gets all the money because of Eric turning into a whiny, potty mouthed child over being yielded". I can dream.

In all fairness O&D lied about the yield as well to Charla and Mirna. They said the BQ's approached them and offered them money to yield someone. When in fact they approached the BQ's with the idea.

Actually, before they knew about how D/O got cash from the BQ's they did offer them money. Oswald said he had wished they had offered earlier.

I really don't see anything wrong with what anyone did. The BQs would rather race Charla and Mirna than Eric and Danielle, so they are going to try and have Eric and Danielle eliminated. By paying Danny and Oswald, they got two chances to yield Eric and Danielle.

This is a race and every team should do what is allowed in order to better their winning chances.

 

[Chloe'sMom]

Personally 2 non-elimination rounds sort of bugged. I'm ready for a race.

I think the blondes told "their version" of the yield to Eric & Danielle to clear their conscience. I just wish they had told the whole truth.

I haven't liked Eric & Danielle particularly but I'm glad they didn't get eliminated tonight. I was feeling so bad for them with getting yielded again. But I'm glad Oswald and Danny are still in it!

I don't like Merna but I was feeling sorry for her when the little car was stuck and the bus was blowing the horn at them! Like that was helping the situation! But she was so mean to Charla (once again) saying it would be nice if she would learn how to drive and how she talked to her at the noodle making challenge.

Oh, and don't chinese people have normal sized rolling pins?!

 

[becjlek]

I wish Danielle would put on a shirt. When traveling anywhere, especially in other countries I think a little modesty would not hurt.

Can someone do a repcap please! We missed the episode because my DH did set the dvd r right. Please, please. Thanks.

The teams had to take a ferry boat to Macau, another city in China. They ended up at the tallest structure--the Macau Tower, where they had to wait for it to open. D/O and the BQs were the first to arrive and they struck up a deal where BQs would give D/O some money to Yield E/D instead of them (D/O had very little money). The task there was for one person to walk around the top of the tower (on the outside) and then jump off the building. Since everyone else had to wait for the tower to open, E/D had a chance to catch up a bit, but then were upset about the Yield.

Then the teams had to either make some noodles or carry a dragon head across town. D/O chose the dragon head, but had major problems finding where they needed to go. All other teams chose the noodles. Then head to the pit stop. BQs finished first and won a pair of waverunners. Then E/D came in, but had to wait. So C/M came in 2nd. D/O came in last, but it was non-elim so they're still in it.

There was lots of drama about the selling of the Yield. Mirna chastized the other teams (only to the camera). D/O told M/C that the BQs approached them. BQs told E/D that they gave D/O some money but that D/O were the ones who chose to Yield E/D. And of course, Eric being the classy guy that he is was swearing and flipping people off.

OMG! What a drama Thank you so much for the recap

So I guess Danny and Oswaldo are marked for elimination for the next leg right?

 

[Lachesis00]

Question: Could the yield only be used at that one point or could it be used later in the game?

Are Eric and Danielle dating or are they from seperate teams?

As much as I do not care for Mirna and Charla... it used to be Charla who irritated me (in a previous season), now it is Mirna. She is sooo negative. If I were Charla I'd sooo give her a piece of my mind. And Is it my imagination or is Charla doing most of the challanges? Unless she absolutely can not do them for physical reasons, it seems like she is the one doing the majority of them?

I do not care for E/D. I would like to see the B/Q or D/O win. I almost started crying when D/O came in last. I'd love to see E/D eliminated and then C/M.

They can only use the yield ONE time in the whole race.

Eric and Danielle were from AM 9 I think, she was with a Friend and Eric also with a friend.

Charla does most of the hard challanges, I like her more than Mirna.
