~ The Amazing Race ~ Season 16 ~

[Cat0727]

Darn, I forgot to watch the finale tonight!!!

From the previews it looked like the teams ran through LucasArts Company, is that right? That's where my cousin works!

 

[Magic Mom]

Well, that certainly sucked. Not the result I was hoping for. (Not a spoiler, I've never posted my preference for who I wanted to win.)

I agree. Very sucky results. They were jerks.

 

[izzy]

My thoughts exactly! And that one woman (I don't know which one is Brandi and which one is Carole) is an uber you-know-what. Brent and Caite were simply playing by the rules.

 

[Bay Hill]

Oh well, on to season 17.

A bit disappointing after the airport stunt but the lesbians are very bad people. They need to check their attitudes at the door. The slow clap and the no clap were pathetic.

I agree about the airport stunt, but really it didn't give them a great advantage. I was hoping for a penalty for moving up to first. I knew in the past some of the clues said fly coach to where ever. Oh well......

And the lesbians. Sheesh!! I guess it never occurred to her that maybe being able to eliminate them was worth more than a million dollars to the models. I must say though that her response was great. "I am dealing with it. I'm up here and you aren't."

That dark haired one just made herself look like a complete horse's patootie on national TV. What a witch. It's a game...get over it!!!!

 

[MiniGirl]

Oh and the look she shot at the brother when he called Caite his little peach. Man, if looks could kill.

 

[LoraJ]

I am fine with the results. They are just not allowed to purchase first class or business.

You're right, it was the first class move that gave them the lead they needed. The ticket line stunt was just so unnecessary, the other brother didn't look like he thought much of it.

 

[Jacoby 46]

Well based on everyones disappointment I guess it isn't too hard to figure out who won!! LOL

On coach--they can only only only purchase coach tickets. However, if they can get the airline to bump them gratis, they are not penalized and it isn't against the rules. That has occurred in prior seasons. Those who bought business/first class had to fix it--but those that got bumped to it at the coach rate were fine.

THAT was the best line! right after the statement that they should have been nicer people. I had to watch that 2x I loved it so much!

 

[Lisa loves Pooh]

Fine results--and used the brunette as a classic example of a sore loser and if my girls EVER spoke like that to anyone they lost to, they'd have their momma to deal with.

Hey--AR is educational in many ways.

Totally fine with the results, didn't think the boys were jerks much (if at all) this season. It seems they could even look past Catie's national faux-pas and realize that a person lies beneath.

I was bummed at first b/c I wanted the cowboys to win--but getting a little frosting on the cake anyway with the extensive poor sportsmanship of said brunette. Even her girlfriend was embarrassed for her. Hmmm...wonder if they are still together.

Yeah, I figured that was the case when there was no penalty. It was a good move on their part. I've flown overseas extensively in my former career and getting off the plane first is HUGE. It gave them a really big advantage getting through customs and immigration, I'm sure. They certainly ran the better race on this last leg.

 

[zulaya]

So bummed. Loved Jet's comment on being proud of the race and coming in 2nd. Would love to see what they are doing now.

 

[OhMari]

Oh and the look she shot at the brother when he called Caite his little peach. Man, if looks could kill.

I give the other girl credit though, she turned from the camera, and was embarassed. I read or heard, these 2 are no longer partners. The blond was very nice on the show, and enjoyed what they were doing. The dark haired one, was such a complainer, that she was given more tv air time.


The winner's? It's true, they were kind during most of the race and never made anyone upset. I think the cowboys should of stood up more for themselves and put the 2 guys behind them at the ticket counter. Like Jett said, they were ahead by 6 hours. If they would of gotten an earlier flight, they sure would of won. I hate how they even everyone up. What is the point of getting out ahead and winning legs of races, if The Amazing Race keeps evening everyone up.

 

[Kurby]

i'm not so sure they cowboys would have won - the brothers asked to be moved up to first class and that put them ahead of the other 2 by ages.

on of the cowboys should have figured out how to side step the brother at the star wars studio. he didn't even try to do it he just stood and waited.

that cost him a million

AND - i cna't believe after standing watching the brother spin and get so dizzy they didn't figure it out faster that that was what they had to do - the other one in the booth should have taken 2 seconds to hear what the brother was saying and figured it out faster.

I agree its a game...get over it...they should have run a better race and they wouldnt have had to deal with the Uturn...I would be willing to be the lesbians would have uturned Brent and Catie if they got there 1st....its not about who is stronger its who is smarter and dark haired Lesbo you are dumber than Catie....

I was hoping that the brothers would get some kind of penalty for going up to first class. I thought it was in the rules that they had to travel coach.

They can't buy first class tickets -- they have to get economy or coach tickets. But I think they said that they asked a flight attendant and she put them there, so they didn't get charged for it, so that would be why it was OK.
