~ The Amazing Race ~ Season 16 ~

[Nancyg56]

Watched Elimination Station to see how the first couple eliminated was reacting to being the first team off AR. They are handling it well though the wife won't let the husband kiss her. He said that when she does, he will know he is forgiven and would keep us posted.

So there is a little bit of bitterness........ I liked them a lot!

QUick question, I remember that in the roadblocks, I think, the pairs needed to each do a certain amont of the challenges. Is that the case now? Last season it seemed like they did not have a mandatory amount each had to do.

Dont' you just hate that.

Everyone tells you ...oh just watch it on line but in our case it has to broadcasted on a Canadian channel to do that. Can't just to to NBC,ABC or CBS because it will give you that message. But we do get the elimation station.

ohhh go to CTV.ca and click "watch" you'll find it there - the full eppy with only 1 commercial inbetween sections

maybe i'll watch it like this every week

If they aren't check-in as second then they aren't second, plain and simple. The point of the challenges is to read and follow the clues as described or they aren't playing the game correctly. The boys knew about the penalty before they arrived to the mat. I guess some people doesn't like to acknowledge any wrong doing.

I wonder where would the go next

Oh, please, she was making it a moral victory to ease the bad feelings of screwing up and getting the penalty. What does it matter?

Is this the first time CTV has put the episodes online? I remember being some TICKED when I couldn't find it in past seasons. Now, at least we'll have that option.

 

[Kurby]

i think this is the first year it's been online - at least for us canucks to watch.

better late then never

Editing Rant:



Having Jordan telling me all the teams will catch up and be on the same bus and then jump cutting to everyone buying tickets is NOT acceptable.

I like to see the departure times Phil-meister!


I've not seen them omit that most important part of the show in any season and am bummed.

Okay--

Carry on!

 

[Kirby]

Oh my gravy!! Way to go cowboys!

That was not bad editing.

I thought the same thing when they said the bus terminal didn't open until 5:00. They are all going to catch up . They do this all the time when something doesn't open when the first team leaves.

Those kicks look like they would really hurt from those cows.

It's one of my favorite parts of the show and if they have done this before--it has been a longgggggggg time.

I do consider it bad editing though when a show edits an episode in an inconsistent manner. You don't have to agree. (Majored in tv production in college, and the "bad" is more in the art--not the technical aspect of editing.)

I'm surprised noone had a serious injury from the cows. I would have been on the ground crying like a baby. I cannot take hits to the face/head/neck at all.

 

[FireDancer]

Interesting episode. The cowboys surprised me a bit. Part of their advantage came from luck with the bus but they put themselves in the position to be lucky by thinking of going through a third city.

I really hope Jordan has to do a road block that involves math or a puzzle. I wonder if her head would start on fire. I had no idea the Chileans spelled Jose H-O-S-E. I have a feeling that the same thing that did in the GT team last year will do them in, a road block that one teammate (probably Jordan) just can't figure out.

I still really don't have a favorite. The cowboys maybe but I will hold off another week or two. For some reason I feel like the father daughter team will end up being stronger then they have showed so far.

 

[nikkistevej]

So far I like the Jeff/Jordan(go Big Brother!!!), cowboys,father/daughter/cop team. Cannot stand Joe/Heidi or their new BFF's.

 

[disneydreamertoo]

Hated the sparkly "tierra like" headband that teen queen had on! Wasn't she all offended last episode that the lesbian couple had commented on her tierra. She is really trying to prove she's not ignorant?Just saying!

Jeff lay off Jordy--you were being mean spirited!

 

[PixieDust32]

So sad the grandma team are gone, they were sweet and nice people. I can't stand the couple ladies, they are so 'divas' and mean spirit, they think there are better than everybody they preview showed them interrogating the cowboys I hope they don't say anything to them.
I agree they got lucky with the bus deal, they didn't share the info they knew and that's fine, its part of the game, at least they didn't tried to sabotage or cheat anyone like the other teams saving spots.

I don't think in Chile Jose spells with an H.

They gay brothers are getting annoying with the same joke about Carrie.

Come on J J team!

I thought so too about the terminal time.
