Amazing Race 3

[becka]

Why are the twins so disliked? Is it just because they are good looking? I guess maybe those other couples on the show are looking for a big break and having someone around better looking is a threat. Geez--give them a break. I really like them.

The brother team in 2nd place is one of my favorites. I hope they continue to do well. Other than the twins and the brother team I am not really rooting for many others. Aaron/Arianna really get on my nerves and they seem to be the biggest "haters" of the twins.

I have really enjoyed the show so far. I hope it continues to be entertaining.

My views of all the teams seems to be doing a 180 right now. I try not to be too judgemental but it happens. I'm still developing an opinion but I think we're finally starting to see the real personalities of the teams. I'm almost embarrassed to say that I'm hoping the twins go far if not win the whole thing. I still like John Vito and Jill. I agree that the older married couple are my least favorite because of their attitudes. JMHO. Can't wait until next week!!!

 

[POLLY ANN]

I can't believe that old guy made his wife do the game in Scotland. What a gentleman!!! But, I'm glad she struggled through it and they game in ninth. And, it was hysterical when the one brother kept falling out of the boat!

I also like the "doublemint" twins. I haven't seen anything extremely negative about them except for the fact they are in first place. (The other teams obviously are jealous.)

It will be interesting to continue watching to see who gets knocked off next. I'm sure it will be the old couple, or as they call them on AR, the "married parents". What's up with that?

 

[dizneenut]

I don't understand why everyone hates the twins so much.
Yeah, I noticed the "married parents" thing. Why do they do that?
I was sad to see Andrew and his dad (I forget his name) go last night. I was hoping they'd stick it out a bit longer.
I'm still rooting for the brothers!!
Does anyone else dislike Flo? I don't like her at all. She seems so bossy and arrogant.

I was sad too to see the father son team go..and I didn't even like them in the beginning. Now I am rooting for the twins or John Vito and his girlfriend..

I did that punting (right there at Scudamore's!!) back in July. Thankfully we had a punter...that is sooo hard!!

 

[Kirby]

So sad to see the father/son team go. What happened? I missed the first 15 to 20 minutes of the show. Came in when the two older brothers started on the boat.

 

[kidzmom3]

they just did not, or were not able to book good flights from Mexico city to London Heathrow. They got in a full day later than any other team. They really messed up the airlines res's

 

[luv2tvl]

I was sad to see the father/son team go.... This season is so odd compared to the first two. The other seasons there has been ONE team that really got on my last nerve, and made me yell at the TV (Tara and Will for example). This season it's multiple teams!! I can't stand all the couple teams that are whining about the twins, and then there are the "legal eagles" that are just riding on the coattails of the other teams to scoot their way into each pit stop! Uggg....

I hope the older brother team and the cop/fireman duo stay in the race because they so far are my favorites! The older bros made me laugh when they kept falling out of the boat! They are definately around for some comic relief!

 

[minniecarousel]

I also laughed out loud when first one brother, then the other fell out of the boat! DH& I couldn't believe the 4 teams putting down the twins. At some point the 4 teams are going to have to start playing against one another - watch out then! Go Twins!

 

[KCritter]

I was sorry to see the father and son go, too. It was neat though, that the race seemed to have really strengthened their relationship.

I don't understand why all the other teams hate the twins. Is it just jealousy? I kind of like them, now that they've stopped making so many stupid mistakes.

I really like the other brothers. I guess because they are funny, doing really well and prove that you don't have to be slim and beautiful to succeed.

What's up with Ian? Why does he have such a major bug up his rear?

Can't wait for next week.

 

[Duckfan]

I think I am finally starting to be able to tell the teams apart and figure who is interesting to root for. Personally I was quite bothered by the gang up on the twins, especially when they were so openly saying it in front of them. I thought they were good sports with it so GO TWINS! The father-son team had the same transatlantic look that the grannies had in race 2. A day behind is just too much, even with a fast forward. I too really like the two brothers who seem to be having fun and still gain time. No favorites yet but lots of good teams!

 

[Poohbear123]

The "Older Parent Team"--- he needs to get a better looking HAT! Gad, he looks like a Dweeb in that hat! Missed the last 20 minutes, as I fell asleep, so have no real opinion on the "Father/Son" team. Hopefully the "Older Parents" will be next! Still do NOT like the Doublemint Twins....they grate on my nerves!

 

[Tinkbell]

I usually like the teams with a good sense of humor so this year I like the older brothers. The other teams don't like the twins because they were in first place. They'd probably pick on any team in first, but the twins are such an easy target for ridicule.

 

[nsyncraider17]

I started to like the twins more during last night's show...they were doing their own thing instead of being followers, and they were just ignoring the "alliance" that formed against them.

I like the older brothers too, because no one would have expected them to be ahead of all these young couples, but they are. They have a lot of fun, too, instead of worrying so much about winning.

I do not like the "married parents" at all! The husband is the biggest jerk I have ever seen. I feel so bad for his wife. I really hope they're the next to be eliminated.

 

[Grog]

I'm pulling for the Twins (I never could understand what evryone seems to have against them; they seem like nice guys) and the other set of Brothers (they remind me a little of team ChaChaCha from AR2). I like their attitude.

 

[Tiiiigergirl]

The older brothers are great! If any of the other teams had fallen in the Thames instead of laughing and taking a bow they would have been swearing and yelling. These guys are fun!!! On the train or the bus one was spitting water at the other. They are old enough to have some perspective on life.

I always liked the doublemints too. I never understood why everyone sniped at them.

Aaron and Arianne are really on my nerves. With Zach and Flo not far behind. Unfortunately I know we have them with us for the duration.

The winner for the ugliest is Ian. What a jerk. He says you've got to do it when it comes to the highland games and then is critical of the way she does it. My husband would pop anyone who tried to treat me that way. If I were her I'd be shopping around for another partner. Maybe for good!

 

[bobcat]

Ok I've finally picked my favorites! I love the brothers and did you notice the one brother didn't just fall out of the boat when they switched sides but was pushed. They were so funny! My second favorite couple are Jill and John Vito. They are so great to each other. I was impressed that they were encouraging each other during the boating and John Vito was concerned for Jill when she had to stand up to get the clue. The twins are starting to grow on me and I liked how they handled the back stabbing by the alliance.

 

[travelbug24]

Was on vacation so goes the late reply. I agree with everyone and was very sad to see Andrew and his father eliminated. I again agree with most of you and my opinion has changed too about the the twins. I am rooting for them since the younger teams are out for them and I can't figure why either. My favorite team continues to be the older brothers (are they twins too?). I did hear the older brothers remark to the twins that they were the two teams that were branded the outcasts by the younger teams in the game so I hope they stick together and help each other out by keeping each other in the race.

I found this little tidbit on The Amazing Race website about tomorrow's show:

A Team crashes their truck into a pole.
One Team taunts the others at an airport, prompting a head-to-head confrontation between them and another Team for the entire leg.
Every little decision makes a world of difference when several Teams panic and sprint to the finish line in an all-out race to avoid elimination

Sounds like it should be a good one!!!

 

[nuke]

I have to say that I really hate that the teams get jammed up in train stations and airports.

I was very happy with the girls getting the heave-ho. They should have followed directions a little better being Harvard girls and all.

I would have been happy with either of the last teams leaving.
