The Amazing Race 6...Official Thread

[julybride]

So Jonathan is willing to drive Victoria to suicide?!? DD and I just gaped at each other when he said that.

He's just a horrible little man. This team needs to be gone from the race. They just make my skin crawl.


And the model alliance. Give me a break.

Kris and Jon have to win this race. I could live with it if Lori and Bolo won, or Rebecca (and even little Adam). But Kris and Jon deserve to be the winners.

(IMO)

I was so hoping that when Jonathan and Victoria decided to do the buoy detour that it would be like the one where Lena was rolling the hay bales......look and look and look....especially after the first buoy said "Try again." But it was not to be. At least they're at the back of the pack now....but as team Guido pointed out in the first AR, the airport can always be the great equalizer.

I actually found myself liking Adam and Rebecca on this leg. They looked so happy on the plane, but the previews make it look like that will be short-lived. Can't wait to see what happened to Victoria.

That was more like it! There was more racing than the last few episodes. Freddy and Kendra had a perfect day. That was very impressive.

Aaron seems like a really cool guy. He sure has a drip for a partner, though.

And I may get flamed for this, but Victoria, in her own way, isn't any better than Jon. When he was stomping grapes, she acted just like he would if positions were reversed. Maybe he drives her to it, but she's as big of a puke as he is.

Oh ITA. I don't like her either. She is a whiney baby just like him. I think they are both horrible. I was soooooo upset that they didn't come in last, but good thing. I would have been even more mad if they came in last and weren't eliminated. I can't wait to see what happens next week with Victoria.

 

[ColoradoBuffaloMom]

I really thought Jonathan and Victoria would be eliminated but no such luck. They are both just horrible people. She keeps excusing his behavior and they both are just so mean to each other.

Kris and Jon have to win. I think they are the only two I like at all

The previews for next week look great.

Now I'm completely convinced that all the Jonathon and Victoria drama is nothing but a contrived, pathetic attempt at becoming famous at any cost. I swear they probably plan this crap out during the rest stops thinking what they could say or do next just for the shock value. I'm so bored with them, they need to go away......now.

I love Kris and Jon, we call them "The Happys" at our house, they seem to be having so much fun together.

I wouldn't be surprised. The whole thing is really over the top. What irks me is that CBS is just feeding them. Everyone can't wait until next week to see what's wrong with Victoria and to see Jonathan make a (fool) of himself again.

I think she probably broke a nail or something...

 

[MariettaC]

Have the same feeling about Victoria and Jonathan. Money or no money, I'd have kissed him goodbye a long time ago.

ROFL!!!

Okay, we woke up at 1:30 because the stupid CBS station showed a stupid college basketball game tonight (and not even local teams!! what's with that???) and delayed AR6 until late night and we didn't want to wait on watching it on tape. When it looked like J&V might be last I thought the payoff for getting up in the middle of the night was going to be way more than worth it. Lauri even said "if they're eliminated, don't cheer so loud that you scare the dogs."

I've said it before and I'll say it again -- I would be so happy to see Kris and Jon win. They're working together and look like they're having a great time running the race.

Another equalizer in addition to the airports -- if the first teams leave in the middle of the night and the first stop isn't open, they have to wait and it gives others a chance to catch up. Eventually I hope this works to Kris and Jon's benefit and they can vault into the lead at some point.

I was soooooo upset that they didn't come in last, but good thing. I would have been even more mad if they came in last and weren't eliminated.

I was thinking the same thing, if Jonathan and Victoria had come in last, it would have been so fustrating being a non elimination round.

 

[dawnsb]

I guessed it was a non-elimination round, and either way Jon and Victoria would still be in the race. I mentioned to my husband that if they came in last, Jon probably would have tossed Victoria over the edge of the cliff!

What was up with Devil Boy and not being able to do 'the dive'?
Funny when he was saying something about him just tagging along...
Next week looks interesting...

Dumb Question here...How does the Fast Forward work?
They get to bypass everything, but yet they still have to do something that noone else does before going directly to the Pit Stop?..
Didn't the couple with the other one have to drink something that resembled blood or something..?

 

[MeanLaureen]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Dumb Question here...How does the Fast Forward work?

I'm fairly new to AR, just started watching 1/2 way through the last season. The way I understand it is: only one team can complete the FastForward, which allows you to skip the rest of the race and head straight to the Pit Stop. Apparently there is no way real way of knowing if someone else is doing the Fast Forward without going there. If another team has taken it, you are out of luck. Last night was the 2nd of only 2 FF's in this race, so it's done now anyway.

I'm new to this thread. I too like Kris and Jon and am now starting to like Bolo and his wife. What the heck is her name? I love Rebecca and pitiful Adam.

 

[QuiltTeddy]

Ugh.....I so wanted Hayden to be eliminated (her whining is getting me big time)....it's between them or Jonathan & Victoria. Durn the non-elimination round last night......would have been one or the other.

I'm pulling for Kris & Jon and Lori & Bolo to be the final two teams, with Kris & Jon taking it all. These four are fun to watch and aren't cut-throat.

Oh, I LMAO that Jonathan couldn't get the last of the wine bottle full.

 

[CindysGusGus]

I agree with Victoria not being much better than Jon. They both can have one another in my opinion. At first I felt sorry for her. After last night I think that they would make anyone else miserable if they werent together. Heres hoping they buy a cabin in the hills and become hermits after this.

 

[Luckymommyx2]

Oh where to begin?! Yes, Jonathon keeps outdoing himself every week. Words can't express the disbelief I felt with the whole suicide jab! I'm not even wasting any more space to him and Victoria. Moving on...

I used to like Aaron and Hayden. I don't know when things changed with Hayden or what exactly happened but she needs to go, along with the rest of the "model" alliance.

I'm completely for Kris & Jon to win this whole thing. I can't believe I'm saying this but I hope it's Kris & Jon, then Lori & Bollo, and Rebecca & Adam in the final three.

Does anyone remember how many non-elimination rounds there are left? I'm thinking there is two but I'm not sure.

 

[calypso*a*go-go]

You know, Bolo is no prince either...in last night's episode he was quite rude to Lori during the grape-stomping. At one point he even pretended to back-hand her. I don't think he's anywhere near the level of Jonathan, but he can be very disrespectful as well.

But they seem to have fun together. The whole back-hand thing was just pretend. Ive done the same thing to my DH, and him to me. Neither of us would ever do something like that when we were mad at each other, but in jest I see nothing wrong with it.
