THE AMAZING RACE 15, Season Starts 09/27/09

[Mrs.Toad]

OK, so should we discuss and decide on spoiler/non-spoiler now and put some rules in the first post? It always seems to be an issue later on in a thread.

To start, I'll give my opinion: I like little spoilers like "in 3 weeks they're going to be in Kenya", but think they should be in spoiler-font for the people who don't want to know anything.

Big, huge spoilers like "the final three are X, Y and Z" in the 4th week of the season, I don't want to know! My vote would be to leave those off completely, because no matter how much you remind people not to quote spoilers, they do it anyway and then everyone can see it. If someone knows something like that and they're itching to share, maybe they can post "I know who the final three are, pm me to find out" and I'm sure they will get some pms.

What does everyone else think? I know I was pretty specific, but seriously, I can go with the flow, whatever everyone else wants.

Thanks Sandy for starting this thread.

Definitely my favorite of ALL the reality shows! DH and DD applied to be on it a while back but didn't get selected. Doesn't make me like it any less!

I applied with my ds's fiancee' (then she married someone else) now that would have made a GREAT season but wasn't selected. Their loss. Still love the show!

I'm in!! I used to love this show and haven't seen it in a few seasons. Df has NEVER seen it and we thought it would be fun to watch together.

Hey MainStMandy!
Good to see you!
Glad our paths crossed again!

I'm with you! I loved hearing what everyone was eating each week...as a tribute to which country AR was in. I don't want to know those eliminated until it is over. (and lucky me! CTV doesn't follow football, so I know at 9:00 EST. )

I AR! Can't wait for it to start!

Of course I wish they would put it back on Wed nights... can't stand it after 60mins and football

I'm losing it. When was it on Wednesday nights? It seems like it has been on Sundays forever.

It will be interesting seeing the 2 Harlem Globetrotters race. They should be very athletic.

I was thinking the same thing about the Globetrotters. I can also see them as an apparently strong team that goes out early due to bad luck.

 

[Mrs.Toad]

I had to laugh reading Garrett and Jessica's bio. They should provide some entertaining arguments!

I wish it was on a different night instead of Sunday, following football and 60 Minutes. It almost never starts on time.

It's a great show though, and I'm looking forward to it starting again.

I've always wanted my DH to try out for it, with either our DS or DD. Or even DS and DD together, that would be good too. Me, I could never handle it. The not knowing where you're going until you're actually going, and the rush for flights, running, running, running all the time would drive me insane!

BUMPITY BUMP!!!


One week from Sunday!!!

I set my DVR to start on time and record for 1.5 hours longer so that I'm sure to catch the whole thing, but I'm usually watching so it doesn't matter.

As for spoilers, they don't bother me. I know better than to come here and read if I haven't seen the week's episode.

That's exactly what I do too!

So glad that it's starting back up!

Ohhh...that's a great idea!!!

Dang it. I thought the premiere was tonight before the Emmy's. Now, I have to wait another whole week. I am so bummed.
