The New Season of Amazing Race...

[ontheEdgeof17]

...starts tonight @ 9 on CBS.


http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race7/ has all the info on the contestants.




And who wants to be my partner for Amazing Race 8? They need a Fleetwood Mac Fans Team. :nod:

[dissention]

Amber and Rob?

UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH. I won't be watching until they're eliminated.

[SuzeQuze]

Amber and Rob?

UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH. I won't be watching until they're eliminated.

Why so down on them? I thought they were beloved.

[dissention]

Why so down on them? I thought they were beloved.

I can't stand them. Hated them on Survivor and I won't be watching their antics on The Amazing Race. I find it rather said that this show is employing stunt casting, it was the only good and respectable reality show out there. :nod:

Do they take plain looking fat-bottomed girls? If so, I'm IN! :]

Me, too!

I know, I was also surprised to see they had picked these survivor vets. I never watched that show so I don't know much about them except that Rob is from Boston and so everyone I know loves him. My roommate met him and said he was cool. I dunno. I'm sick of reality TV, the Bachelorette has killed it for me. Although The Amazing Race is much more interesting with all the competition and traveling, not to mention the bad behavior!

[wondergirl9847]

The Amazing Race rules!! I'll most def be watching. :thumbsup:

That one girl was on it from Big Brother the season before last. Her and her man were out within a few rounds. I think watching Romber would be good for the show. It will make me root for the other teams much more. :o

I just remembered how fun the first few episodes are cuz the really bad competitors are still in it, very entertaining!

I'm just too excited. Idol into a 2 hour episode of AR......a perfect night.

Cute. That's exactly what we'll be watching because TAR is my roommate's favorite show. Plus we've been watching Idol. Too bad you live so damn far away, you could come over for Amazing Race-tinis. ;)

[GardenStateGirlie]

They need a Fleetwood Mac Fans Team. :nod:

I've thought about it but I couldn't stand being some reality TV show person. How bout it, Merf? :D

[Johnny Stew]

I've never been a big 'Survivor' fan, but Amber is from Beaver, PA., where I went to high school, and we have some mutual friends and other connections.... so it'll be interesting to see how her and Rob fare on 'AR.'
Just for the fun of it.

At the moment, I'm rooting for the straight boy best friends to last as long as possible... just for the eye-candy! :laugh:
Hopefully they won't turn out to be jerks.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Some of these teams look scary. :shocked:

[GardenStateGirlie]

Some of these teams look scary. :shocked:

Just some? O_o What was with the two crazies on the rollerskates? The mother and son team might be the creepiest of all--they're going to be all evil.

I can't tell them apart. :shrug: :lol:

[GardenStateGirlie]

I can't tell them apart. :shrug: :lol:

I think they're going to be my team to hate this year. :nod: The guys from South Carolina are making me laugh already and I like the two gay guys too.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Peru is like donkies and blankets

Gotta love the airhead gays.

[Livia]

Kind of a boring season opener, eh? The entire first hour was just getting to Peru and finding the damn bus.

Our local paper described the mother/son team as "creepy yet entertaining, w/ an obsession over destroying Rob and Amber that's almost Shakespearean."

Lynn and Alex are hucking filarious!

I love Uchenna and Joyce (and they're from Texas - yay!) I've nicknamed the blondies "Paris and Nicole," for their hair and big sunglasses. And they're girly-girls....

My thoughts EXACTLY. :nod:

[Josh2003]

I think I'm going to enjoy this season. The teams seem to all be very different, unlike last season, when I don't think I ever could tell the difference between Aaron and Hayden and Freddie and Kendra.

I do have to say, though, that a 2-hour premiere was NOT necessary. Waaaaay to long.

I watched this show for the first time ever. I LOVE it! I have to say I'm a bit disappointed that the hillbillies are gone. They were different. They don't need 2 blond girl groups, I can barely tell them apart.

The gay guys are great & I love that the mom & son hate Rob & Amber. Cuz I hate Rob & Amber. :nod:

[dissention]

Just finally watched it and I thought it was good. There are a lot of teams that I like this season, especially Uchenna and Joyce. Poor guys. :( Meredith and Gretchen are cute and they seem to have what it takes.

Love the mother and son team and I love the best friends, can't wait for them to bitch out Amber and Rob tonight.

The gay guys are hella obnoxious. I want to slap them so hard that they suffer from amnesia next time they try to remember a Liza song.

I couldn't understand the guys from South Carolina. They had THICK accents.

Oh, how I despise Amber and Rob, though. -_-

[dissention]

The mother and son team might be the creepiest of all--they're going to be all evil.

I love them already. They will bring great drama, most definitely. They hate Rob and Amber with such a passion that it's hilarious. Can't say I blame them, though.

[dissention]

ROMBER MUST GO NOW.

They play a cheap, unfair game and it is infuriating to watch.

That is all.

The son doesn't hate them. It's obvious he has the biggest crush on Rob. :nod: That's all he talks about.

They are my favorite team. You gotta do what you gotta do. Why play fair and lose? :woohoo:

[dissention]

*POSSIBLE SPOILER*


















From what I've heard, they do lose, so the point is moot. Their disgusting antics will be the death of them in that competition. The fact that they were even allowed to go on the show with such an incredibly unfair advantage is rather shocking to begin with. If the final four that's being paraded around by many different sources is correct, I'm INCREDIBLY happy. Great final four to watch. :nod:

Perish, Romber, perish. :D

[ontheEdgeof17]

Please. There have been far worse teams than them. And no one raised a ruckus when Amanda and her man was on it.

[Livia]

I couldn't understand the guys from South Carolina. They had THICK accents.

That's why they had to put up subtitles for them! I always crack up when shows do that - it's rampant on Growing Up Gotti as well. Good thing, cuz I can never understand those boys! :D

[dissention]

Please. There have been far worse teams than them. And no one raised a ruckus when Amanda and her man was on it.

Ha. I've yet to see a team with such an unfair advantage, not even Charla and Mirna. The **** Rob pulled on the bus tonight was the lowest thing I've seen yet on this entire show. Stunt casting at it's worst, but I suppose CBS had to get them back out there to promote their upcoming Romber reality show. :rolleyes:

Please tell me you're kidding & that there is not going to be a Rob & Amber show coming soon. Please.

And I? Hate those f*cking Gotti kids. Loathe might actually be a better word. Despise maybe? Ugh.

[ontheEdgeof17]

He's kidding.


Although, it wouldn't surprise me to see a wedding special on CBS. :o

[dissention]

He's kidding.


Although, it wouldn't surprise me to see a wedding special on CBS. :o

I am not, dear. They're getting their own reality show on CBS that documents the planning of their wedding and the finale is the actual wedding. They've reportedly already bagged another million for all of it. :rolleyes:

[Johnny Stew]

Yes, diss is right. Bridal shower, wedding preparations... it's all being filmed for an upcoming series.

[skcin]

I am nauseous just thinking about a Romber show. Please please please let something bad happen to them so they don't win Race.

I finally watched this week's episode. I'm kind of glad the girls got the boot, they were dull.

I want Romber off so bad that I love every team in comparison. The two brothers are such idiots, though. :laugh:

Team Oedipus and Team Enron all the way, baby!

[skcin]

Team Oedipus and Team Enron all the way, baby!

Team Oedipus! :laugh: That? Is hilarious! :thumbsup:

[dissention]

Team Oedipus! :laugh: That? Is hilarious! :thumbsup:

I? Love that team. Their disdain for Romber is hilarious, the mother is such a cute little pixie, and the son is a cute little twerp with a mouth on him. They crack me up. I hope them and Debbie and Bianca do well. :nod:

Cripes, I hope they all do well because I really like them all.

I'm with you, Diss. It's kind of silly, but I'm rooting for literally every team except Romber. They're greedy and evil. Yeah, yeah, I know it's a game & it's every man for himself. And Rob definitely knows how to play the game. But I really don't think he's all that smart -he's just really good at being a dick. It's almost like he's sociopathic, no remorse whatsoever. F*ck them. :mad: I am worried that they have a real chance of winning this thing.

And I can't help but question his & Amber's relationship - I don't know how long they'll last if they aren't competing in something. I don't know if it's a desire to win thing, or if it's the fame or if they love the attention & TV exposure, but when it's all over, will they be able to sustain a real relationship? I doubt it. :rolleyes:

If I had to pick my faves, I'd go with mom & son (she looks so sweet & innocent, but I think there's something underneath :nod: And you're right - that kids has a mouth on him and I LOVE it!) I also like Uchenna (sp) & Joyce and Gretchen & Merideth (just cuz they're older & I give them tons of credit for doing this. And yes, the gay guys are acting really flaming gay, but I love them too!

Ugh, I watched the first show and that's all I could take. That family is horrid. :eek:

I think the son had it correct when he said "Rob can't even put a sentence together." :laugh: I wouldn't worry, though, because they won't win. Think positive!

What he pulled on the bus was just evil. I would have gone postal on his dumb ass.

And I can't help but question his & Amber's relationship - I don't know how long they'll last if they aren't competing in something. I don't know if it's a desire to win thing, or if it's the fame or if they love the attention & TV exposure, but when it's all over, will they be able to sustain a real relationship?

Amber has no personality, she's a lemming. He's a thug. Doesn't exactly make for a great relationship, but we'll see. :laugh:

Yup, I love all three of them. :nod: Lynn and Alex get on my nerves so badly, though. There's a difference between being loud and being obnoxious; they're just obnoxious. They had me rolling on the floor in the premiere, though, when they were scremaing "It's the hiiiiiiillllllllbillllllllllllieeeeeeeessss!" and when Lynn said "They can't drive a car because they're used to a tractor." :lol:

I was actually surprised CBS let that in!

[dissention]

Oh, I was so worried Team Oedipus would be eliminated. Phew. :laugh:

Sad to see Debbie and Bianca go, they had hutzpah. And they were hot. I couldn't believe Debbie ate all four pounds of meat.

Romber can kiss my crack.

[Livia]

Another fine episode - kudos to Lynn and Alex! So, did they NOT win a fabulous vacation for coming in first place? That sucks! And kudos as well to Brian and Greg for going from 9th to 3rd or 4th!

Okay, if you were even considering going on this show, wouldn't you spend a wee bit of time to learn how to read a frigging map? WORK with me, people! :p

[dissention]

And kudos as well to Brian and Greg for going from 9th to 3rd or 4th!

Don't they come across as the biggest dolts to ever grace your screen, though? The chair my ass is planted in has a bigger IQ than the two of them combined!

How excited was I when Lynn & Alex beat Romber? I can't even tell you. It was wonderful. :blob1:

[Kelly]

Why does everyone hate Team Romber? I get it that no one seems to want them to win another Mil but you have to admit, Rob is playing a pretty good game. He does use his brain and has made some good moves..like taking the penalty, paying people to help him. He seems to be snarky but he also appears to know what he has to do to win. I find him highly entertaining. He adds drama and humour to the show..which I like. Lynn and Alex are cool too.

Deana? What a whiner. She is worse than Flo, if that is even possible. She complains, bitches, cries, complains , bitches, cries. Yikes. She would drive me up a wall if I was her partner.

I am not sad to see the rolling skating dorks go. Who drives two and a half hours out of their way without realizing it? The clue says "drive ONE HUNDRED miles to the mountains"...uh, ladies, when you have hit the hundred mile marker with no mountains in site, you are going the WRONG way! Oy.

Honestly, I really do not have a favorite team this time. I ADORED Kris and Jon last season and no one in particular strikes me fancy this time. I feel like I am sort of obligated to route for the POW..but he doesn't seem like he is going to be one of the stronger racers. His girl is sort of annoying too.

Ever heard the saying "It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game"? I understand that you must do things to win, but Romber is lower than low. Stealing cabs, bribing bus drivers not to let the other teams leave the bus, using money from other teams to bribe and then laughing about it, using their Survivor fame to get help (that gives them a leg-up on all the other teams automatically), etc. They're infuriating and I can't wait for the night when they're Phil says "I'm sorry to tell you, but you've both been eliminated from the race."

Yes, Romber's playing well. Doesn't mean I have to like them, does it? :shrug:

I do agree - Deana sucks. Stop crying like a little b*tch & get to work. :mad:

Why waste two years?


Maybe that's why I don't date. I don't want it to end, but they eventually do and then I feel I wasted all that time.


The divorce rate is over 50% these days....it's sad. And they say homos can't deal with monogamy. :cool:

You don't date? Hmm. Well, I guess the theory when you start out is that it may not end. :shrug: But, actually, it's not wasted if you had fun, is it? I mean, you get one person for awhile, you have a good time, then you're bored, then you find another neat person...yeah? But in the meantime, you got to have all that fun and sex. :shrug:

And I thought I was cynical. Hot damn! :laugh:

Spending two days, two months, or two years with someone whose company you enjoy is nothing to shake a stick at. I'll take a short period of bliss over nothing any day of the week. But I'm having fun at the moment, so I'm not the best person to comment. :laugh:

You can have fun and sex without commitment. Why spend all that time (AND MONEY) on one person when you can just have friends with benefits? :wink:

oh, yeah, i guess... i prefer the comfort and...intimacy? (I hate that word, it's so cheesy, but I can't think of another) of one person for longer, but, your way is good if it works for you! For me, I always feel like I'm sleeping with a stranger, so it's just not as fun and free. :shrug:

Honestly, I like intimacy, too.....the whole feeling of having someone and knowing they are thinking about you and loving you. I'm not a ho by any means. I'm a one man, man....However, I don't just date anybody and it's hard here to find someone that doesn't sleep around. I put up a wall to block it all out and just go out with guys but never committ....I'm so afraid of getting my heart broken like before.


Wow....I need therapy. :o

I. am. bitter.I've had plenty of disappointments, I've had my heart ripped out of my chest, I've had relationships end more painfully than I can describe... but that's the past.
I won't gush, but the man in my life is beyond special... and when you find a guy who's as right for you as you are for him, all thoughts of how many relationships don't go the distance, simply go out the window. :nod:

So don't be bitter, Curtie... you're too good-hearted, too young, too intelligent and too handsome for that. :)

What's his name, dear?

Because I'm a nosy schmuck, after all. ;):laugh:

As fate would have it, he's actually a Ledgie. :nod:
His name is Joshua, and his screenname here is "riff_shuffler."

[Johnny Stew]

I never thought that Oedipal Jr. would be able to eat that 4 lbs of "meat". How disgusting was that task? :vomit: I was convinced he would fail at that but he didn't!
He's a hilarious little diva, I love him! :laugh:Patrick shocked the hell out of me by eating all of that meat. That TEENY-TINY guy!!!

Talk about moxy!

Plus, he's just a hoot. :D

[dissention]

:laugh:

I am so embarrassed to admit this, but if he would cut that awful ****ing hair and gain twenty pounds, he'd be pretty damn cute. :laugh:

[Johnny Stew]

He likes David Lynch, so he must be okay. :p:laugh:

He LOVES David Lynch!
(I was wondering if anyone would go check out his profile right away! :laugh: ;) )

And he's more than just "okay"... but 'nuff said or else I'll embarrass him! :laugh: :)

[wondergirl9847]

Anyone who loves David Lynch, is okay in my book!! Twin Peaks FOREVAH!! LOL :thumbsup:

[Johnny Stew]

I am so embarrassed to admit this, but if he would cut that awful ****ing hair and gain twenty pounds, he'd be pretty damn cute. :laugh:Really? I think he's pretty damn cute right now.
I like his slight build, and I dig his long hair. :o

Although I bet he's going to be one of those guys who's even more attractive later in life. :nod:

[Johnny Stew]

Anyone who loves David Lynch, is okay in my book!! Twin Peaks FOREVAH!! LOL :thumbsup:You and dissy are invited to the wedding! :laugh:

[GardenStateGirlie]

Ever heard the saying "It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game"? I understand that you must do things to win, but Romber is lower than low. Stealing cabs, bribing bus drivers not to let the other teams leave the bus, using money from other teams to bribe and then laughing about it, using their Survivor fame to get help (that gives them a leg-up on all the other teams automatically), etc. They're infuriating and I can't wait for the night when they're Phil says "I'm sorry to tell you, but you've both been eliminated from the race."

I actually don't mind them as much as I thought I would. I CANNOT WAIT to see the mother and son team get elminated. I know Curtis is with me on that one. They are obnoxious as all get out.

[dissention]

Really? I think he's pretty damn cute right now.
I like his slight build, and I dig his long hair. :o

Although I bet he's going to be one of those guys who's even more attractive later in life. :nod:

Oh, you have to be tall and studly to pull off the longer hair, in my book. :laugh: He's quite a good looking twerp, though. He's, what, in his twenties and still has perfect skin like that? Probably a Bathroom Diva like myself.

Take that back, YOU RUINER. :cool:

I lurve them. And Meredith and Gretchen. And Uchenna and Joyce. And I'm devastated that Debbie and Bianca are gone, they were so incredibly hawt.

Oh honey, you know i'm a total fag hag. He is one gay boy i'd beat the piss out of if I ever encountered him and his mother? VOMIT. She reminds me of the many bitches I encounter on an everyday basis. I cannot stomach them. CANNOT.

I do love Meredith and Gretchen. I always love the older couples--every year they've been amazing and the two of them are so.damn.cute.

[Johnny Stew]

But I so cannot picture you snuggling up with your boy and watching Blue Velvet or Eraserhead. :laugh::laugh:

Yeah, those aren't exactly snuggling with a loved one-type movies. :laugh:

"Don't you f***ing look at me!!!"

How about the groom's side, is that okay?You chose wisely, Grasshopper! ;) :laugh:

[Johnny Stew]

Oh, you have to be tall and studly to pull off the longer hair, in my book. :laugh:See, I think he has this whole bookish, slightly bohemian, artsy type thing going on, and I dig that. :D

But, then again, the sight of Kyle MacLachlan's wang might get you in the mood. ;)

[Johnny Stew]

I do love Meredith and Gretchen.My brother can't get over the fact that the man's name is Meredith.
So everytime he's on the screen, he calls him by a different female name.

My personal favorite was "Carol Sue." :laugh:

[wondergirl9847]

Hey, there was a bada$$ named Sue...Johnny Cash sang about him. ;)

I'm devastated that Debbie and Bianca are gone, too. But I was sad that the barbie twins left as well. :p
I don't think the mother and son are that obnoxious :shrug: the son is a little snarky, but it's cute. And I like long hair, too, although he is a little pretty and slight (but why do I care? he's gay!) The gay boys are funny...I don't really care about most of the other people, except the older couple (forgot their names) cause I want an older couple to win once. :)
I totally wish one of the double girl groups would stay in, though - me and my friend Rain wanted to be on it, but for this years application, they were asking for teams/families of four! :shrug: So does that mean next time it's gonna be all families/teams of four? Looks like it. We can't think of two other people we'd want to go with us... :lol:

Marty and I heard that, and then joked that we could not imagine a more nightmarish situation that traveling around the world with our children!!! :laugh: If they were older it would be different but to imagine it now is a riot.

I'm not sure I see the point of making it families instead of couples.....??

I would assume they'll pick the most dysfunctional and quirky families as humanly possible. Generally, you have to be 21 to apply to be on the show. I'm wondering if it will be the same way for the family version--all college aged and older kids?

I think families of four will be too hard to keep track of--that's a lot of people.

The image of little children with their parents on The Race is hysterical though, "Mommy....Tommy just pooped his pants." Or, on the airplane... :child #1 keeps kicking seat of team in front of them: "I don't feel good..." :child #2 throws up:

I'm sure the crazy will keep us laughing though :nod:

[Kelly]

I agree Team Romber is snarky but they are hardly the first team to steal a cab. It happens every season. They are not the first team to bribe a cab/bus driver either. I have seen other teams also employ the help of locals, using the lure of the camera crew, to get them around strange cities. I don't see them doing anything worse than various other pairs. He is a snake but IMHO, that is how you have to play these type of games. You can't be all nice and sweet and honest and expect to win. (Kris and John lost, Freddy an Kendra won) The only way to play a game like this and be successful is to try and outwit the other teams. That will most likely involve lying, not being the nice guy etc. His tactics might not exactly be the most likable but he is taking risks and so far, they seem to be paying off.

My husband swears that CBS paid them to be on the show. He is entertaining and funny and probably did draw some Survivor fans over to watch the show. Anyone else think that is possible?

I think Gretchen's voice is sooo adorable. "Meredith, I am gonna be sick... slooowww downn". Too funny.

The Mother/son team are annoying. The mom is really out there and I was hoping they would be last. They couldn'tget out of the city for two hours. Ever think of asking for directions?

[dissention]

I'm devastated that Debbie and Bianca are gone, too. But I was sad that the barbie twins left as well. :p

The Barbie twins were too dumb for me to watch, just like the brothers. :laugh: Debbie was just drop-dead gorgeous, I had to fan myself when looking at her.

I love Susan/Patrick and Meredith/Gretchen. They're my favorites so far. Susan cracks me up, I almost choked when she said "My son needs a man" and "No, I wouldn't be whining if I had to do eat all this, I'd be on the ground vomiting." :laugh:

I really liked Bob and Joyce from season 5, they were so cute. Old people hooking up on the internet...awwwwwwwww. But still, no team has come close to my girls Charla and Mirna yet. I <3 them bitches. :D

[riff_Shuffler]

No way! Get out! :laugh:

He likes David Lynch, so he must be okay. :p


Hey there, thanks. I am a David Lynch *fanatic* ~ I believe that it is a David Lynch world; we just live in it. :cool: "Mulholland Drive" and "Twin Peaks" are my personal favorites...

Yes, Mr. Brian "Johnny Stew" is the Ledgie for me, i'm so happy to say. We have chatted off and on, on the Ledge, for the last 2 years or so. We just recently found that we are most definitely kindred spirits... we like to thank our love for Ms. Nicks & the Mac, and a little *divine intervention* for bringing us together. :angel: :D


I really hope to get to know everyone here better!

Federal Bureau of Investigation, Special Agent Dale Cooper. Whew. LOL Sigh...in One-Eyed Jacks...in the tux and glasses...nuff said. ;)

My friend from high school got me hooked on it. She got hooked on it from another chick in her yearbook class. We ate lunch at her house everyday our senior year and she goes "You've gotta watch this show, it's great!" We watched the pilot over a few days during lunch and BAM....hooked. Yep, I've seen FWWM and I used to get the magazine Wrapped in Plastic, but it became hard to find. My friend (the one who got me addicted. LOL) and I met Mark Frost at a local book store, it was the coolest thing ever! We asked him if he'd kept in touch with David and he said yes. This was back in like '94 or something. He signed a book and magazine for me. I have a pic somewhere.

Annie sucks. Hate her. LOL

My condolences, Diss. :distress: They did make me laugh though: "Mom, if you don't be quiet, we're going to have an embarrassing moment..." :laugh: I will miss them. I was hoping Ray & Deana would go, he's an A-Hole & she's a whinebag. Oh well.

Next week looks hella good. Lots of blood & drama & accidents & excitement. :nod:

I was so sad that Susan and Patrick left. I loved them. Ray and Deana are just as bad as Romber, I loathe them with a passion. I couldn't believe the things he was saying about the other two teams. Especially when he called Patrick a wimp and Patrick ACTUALLY ATE THE MEAT AND DIDN'T QUIT. What a f*cker. Deana is a baby, simply put.

I must confess, I got worried for Gretchen when I saw the preview for next week. That poor woman, she really got knocked out. I aodre her and Meredith, though. So cute and her voice tickles my funnybone. Two full hours next week, woohoo!!

And I'm now in love with Lynn and Alex. Too ****ing funny!

He is an a-hole. I said "f*ck you" to the TV last night he pissed me off so badly with his "I am NOT losing to some old couple." Jackass.

And when the son said that to his mother I was like, "Uh, you just created an embarassing moment." :laugh:

I <3 Lynn and Alex too and have all along. They freaking crack me up! I was sad for you that Patrick and Susan got offed but they were so annoying I couldn't stand them.

I know about Gretchen, the poor thing! That couple is so great, love them. I hope they remain while a-hole Ray and wimp-*ss Deanna get smacked down.

[wondergirl9847]

That guy is a jerkwad. :mad: He's all "I'm not losing to a 70 year old." and "They are a couple of decades past where they need to be."

I hope that guy lives to be 150 frickin' years old. Jerkface. :mad: Ugh and what's with the red nose...clownboy. Sheesh, I can't stand this guy. LOL

Everyone else, I am okay with, yes, even Romber.

[skcin]

And I'm now in love with Lynn and Alex. Too ****ing funny!


I about died when they said "I hate Rob and Amber. I hate them so much. We simply don't talk to them. They're like an STD. You just have to stay away from them so you don't catch anything." ROTFLMAO! :D

I hope Gretchen and the brothers are okay...

Is it just me or does Phil have major bulge tonight? :o

[dissention]

Is it just me or does Phil have major bulge tonight? :o

I noticed it, too. Major bulge. But I have quite a crush on him, so I look for those things. :laugh:

Rob and Amber are just coldhearted people. I could honestly care less whether they win or lose at this point because even if they win, dignity is not something that can be bought. I love how Phil called them out at the pit stop. And Rob's comment about Meredith pushing Gretchen was in such poor taste. Not that I can expect anything less from a construction worker from South Boston who pronounces "aard-vark" as "aar-da-vark-a." :rolleyes:

I'm so rooting for Gretchen and Meredith, they're such good folks and they put their heart and soul into the game. You could tell Phil was ecstatic that they came in 5th. I was on the floor when she said "I've been wanting a facelift for awhile, anyway." :laugh:

[Hawkeye]

I'm real happy the old people are still in. The fact they had to freaking go back in the cave and then she fell and was only concearned that her husband find the clue, I was thrilled they got to stay in. I'm also very thrilled that the abusive guy is gone. I forgoet the names of them, but I prefer Rob and Amber to them by far. But yeah the old people and the brothers are my favorites. But the first pair of girls to go were my original favorites just for their freaking great looks.

I hated Ray and Deana, but at least they had the decency to stop and ask if everyone was alright from the accident. For two people who seemed so obsessed with winning, it said a lot about their character for them to stop and make sure everyone was okay. Rob and Amber? Have no character.

Gretchena nd Meredith and the brothers are my faves, too. I also love Uchenna and Joyce. :nod:

Surely you jest. :cool: Debbie and Bianca blew away those Barbie doll twits in the looks department.

Great episode(s), as usual! I'm totally rooting for Uchenna and Joyce, I do like the brothers and Lynn and Alex too...this is the best "old folks" team evah, in terms of staying in the race this long. Ya gotta love 'em!

Ray and Deana - what is wrong with her face? She looked like she had 2 black eyes and her right eye is like 4 inches below her left eye!?! Maybe she just looks weird like that from squinting and lack of sleep. Oh, and having to hang out with Ray 24/7! What a d*ck!

Romber, what were you thinking? NO ONE uses a FF when you're in first place! Dumb. Fortunately for them, they're still in 2nd place - and they can use the FF later if they need it. Not that I'm rooting for them, I'm just sayin'....

Is it just me or does Phil have major bulge tonight? :oNope... I noticed it, too!

Wonder if we can start a petition to get Phil to do a semi-nude calendar? :laugh:

[Johnny Stew]

Tonight's episode was T-E-N-S-E!
If I was a smoker, I'd have gone through a whole pack!

I was seriously hoping Ray & Deana would go tonight... and especially that they'd go before Gretchen & Meredith.

I'm ready for Rob & Amber to go, too, but at least Rob can be funny at times. Ray's just a perpetual ass. So good riddance. :)

And THANK GOD that Greg & Brian are still in the race!!!!!

[amber]

YEEEESSS!!! that footrace was awesome!!! Bye, Ray, you flaming A-hole!!!! God, I can't believe she wants to stay with him! :mad: Rob makes me want to kill him. The way he was smirking when phil said "so, you just left them by the side of the road" Rob is a bad, bad, bad, yucky, bad, evil, bad person.

[Kelly]

How nervewracking was the footrace?? I am so friggin glad the brothers beat out that twit and her abusive Amazon. There is no reason to disrespect Gretchen and Meredith like that when they are busting their ass just as hard, if not harder. Deana is a whining, sniveling child.
Team Romber were highly annoying last night, not stopping and asking if the brothers, etc were ok. The Cameraman looked pretty out of it, I know they said he was ok, but I still hope he wasnt hurt too badly. Scary.

Lynn and Alex are funny as hell! I also have much love for Ron, being that he sacrificed himself for that Godawful war. Not a big fan of his chick, but I do like him. Next week looks fun, with her calling him a "hillbilly Redneck".
So, I am ok with either one of them winning or Uchenna and Joyce. (I really do not think Meredith and Gretchen have a shot, unfortunately)

[ThePenguin]

Lynn and Alex are funny as hell!

They cracked me up last night, I think it was Lynn who said (when they were matching the stuff to the right tribes): "This is the Beverly Hills of tribes" because the walls etc were so nicely decorated LOL.

I also thought it was rotten that Rob/Amber didn't even stop for a second to check the flipped car! yeesh.

HATED Ray, good riddance to him.

-Lis

[skcin]

Buh-bye Ray & Dina. You will not be missed. At all. The end, when she said "I really hope Ray & I can work things out..." Seriously? Why? Dumbass. :rolleyes: So glad the brothers beat them to the finish - what a great ending! :nod:

LOVE Uchenna & Joyce. They were so emotional last night.

And Romber is just evil. Race or not, they could have at least slowed down (like every single other team did) to ask if everyone was OK. :mad: Lynn & Alex? "Dude, Rob there's no room." LOL! :laugh:

[skcin]

I noticed it, too. Major bulge. But I have quite a crush on him, so I look for those things. :laugh:

Not that I can expect anything less from a construction worker from South Boston who pronounces "aard-vark" as "aar-da-vark-a." :rolleyes:



I missed the bulge. :( I will have to consult with Tivo today. :nod:

I was gasping for air when he said that. Patrick was right when he said Rob was an idiot who "couldn't put a sentence together." :laugh:

[wondergirl9847]

I haven't been online for a couple of days (stupid Charter Cable) but just wanted to say....goodbye Ray, jerkface!! :mad:

That was sickening, but I also thought that comment he made about Meredith pushing Gretchen was just as rotten. That was pretty low, IMO.I thought it was also pretty low and disgusting that Rob & Amber refused to give Gretchen & Meredith any money, and then Ray refusing, too, with his snivelling little, "I'll think about it later in the leg."

For most of Rob & Amber's behaviour, I've blamed Rob... but when he said to the camera, "most of the teams gave them money," and she gleefully chimed in with, "but not EVERY team," it was pretty obvious that she fully supports his actions, rather than just letting him do his thing.

She's a passive agressive baby. And did you hear what Lynn and Alex said? Supposedly, they claim she never once ate a thing and they began calling her "Amber-rexia". :laugh: I've heard that the beauty queen has a mental meltdown and that she breaks up with her POW while on the race, too.

No wonder he'd be paranoid that someone else was trying to con him, in turn.

I probably do at times, but not very often. I can't stand all that muscle, it just grosses me out. I love a ripped body as much as the next person, but when they look like they could pro wrestle...no thank you. :laugh:

[dissention]

Hooray for Meredith and Gretchen. They kick ass. Maybe they'll win. :D I love how Phil said to them in this somber, low voice "Meredith and Gretchen, you're..." and then shouted "TEAM NUMBER FIVE!"

Kelly is such a mouth, I can't stand her, and Ron has as much charisma as wet soda crackers. They need to be eliminated with Romber very soon.

Didn't particularly care to see the brothers nearly naked, but I was sad to 'em go.

[Livia]

I loved the dialogue editing on the goat-milking - every team up until the brothers kept referring to the goats as males. :rolleyes:

Meredith and Gretchen are SO impressive! Best "old folks" team. Ever. But they need to stop making dumb mistakes if they wanna stay in it...

Uchenna and Joyce had me worried there for a second - ditto to them re: dumb mistakes.

Lynn and Alex - SMART move w/ the clothing! Only 2 women or 2 gay men would have thought of that! :laugh:

P.S. - Great episode! I would love to visit that part of Africa and stay at the pit stop hotel!!!

[skcin]

I was so scared Uchenna & Joyce were going to be out. SO scared. I would have rather seen Romber go, or Ron & Kelly. But that's OK, the brothers didn't thrill me. :shrug:

I was actually more impressed with the wildlife than the race last night. :laugh:

And Uchenna & Joyce - OMG, I can't believe they carried all that crap on their heads! I have no coordination at ALL, so I was amazed.

[Kelly]

Kelly is one high maintenance chick. She accused him of calling her something he flat out did not. So then, Miss Bible Thumper calls him a "countryass redneck" or something like that?!? WTF? (nothing wrong with loving the Bible..she is just a hypocrite)

[dissention]

Tonight was alright, nothing special. Ron and Kelly are such dolts that I can't bear to watch them. Why didn't they yield Rob and Amber?

I thought it was sooooooooo cute how Meredith and Gretchen had, like, the entire country cheering them on. :laugh: Gawd, I lurve them. Gretchen needs to kick it into gear, though, she's too slow sometimes.

Phil looked yummy yummy screw, though.

Nope, they got the last clue and it didn't say anything about a pit stop, just to go see Phil on the mat. They got there and he said the leg wasn't over and gave them their next clue. Romber didn't look too happy and I loved it. :laugh:

From the preview, it seems that the teams catch up with each other because it shows Meredith and Gretchen and Joyce and Uchenna partying together. And Romber doesn't have a good time on one of the challenges next week!

They only showed Romber get to Phil, then cut away to the "To Be Continued" title card. If they arrive to get the clue in the order they completed the task, it'll go:

Ron and Kelly (her nose reminds me of Steve Martin's in Roxanne)
Lynn and Alex
Uchenna and Joyce
Meredith and Gretchen

But they appear to catch up, so no one is really last. :thumbsup: Lynn and Alex, Meredith and Gretchen, and Uchenna and Joyce are in cahoots together against Ron and Kelly and Romber, so that should make for some interesting television.

Yay! Thanks for the recap. It's good against evil, huh? :laugh: I look forward to next week! :blob1:

I could have used you tonite, Diss. I was at a bar where they asked a lot of trivia questions and a lot of them were randon movie questions that I know you know! Like a printout of 10 photos of Val Kilmer where we had to name each film they were from! We got 8. Then there were more obscure ones. Ugh!

Just remember, Cute Val is pre-'97 and Bloated Val is post-'97. If there were pics of Bloated Val, chances are you haven't seen any of those movies because no one really has. I was in the video store this afternoon and noticed he's a regular direct-to-video staple these days. :laugh:

[Johnny Stew]

Every time I think of Val Kilmer, I laugh.

There was an extremely cute guy at the local Circuit City that my best friend (or "fruitfly" for Amber), Anne, had the hots for. I kept telling her he was gay, but she refused to believe me.

After drooling over him for weeks, she finally got the nerve to talk to him and struck up a conversation about various films. At which time, Mr. E.C.G. proclaimed that annnny movie with Val Kilmer was a "must-see" in his book, and that both he and his roommate were the BIGGEST Kilmer fans.

She barely talked to me the whole ride home. :laugh:

I KNOW! WTF were they thinking? :confused: Yield, YIELD you fools!!!

Ooookay. I was surprised that none of them tried to lug the bags of coal (I'm sure if the brothers were still in they would have done it. :nod: ) That tea thing was a pain the in ass.

I was a tad worried for Uchenna & Joyce being in India - there are many Indian students at our university & a lot of them (in my experience) are openly racist against black people. :shrug: Not sure why. They seemed to do fine, though.

[ThePenguin]

I think Gretchen had like a panic attack looking at all those boxes she had to open; she was just moaning and sighing and wandering about aimlessly. And why was almost everyone wearing long sleeved clothing in a thousand degree weather? They all looked like they were dropping dead! Okay, you're on the plane, you know you're going to India-- change into a tee shirt!! :shrug: think ahead, people.

Also was I the only one who noticed the really hot local guy who was helping Gretchen and Meredith? yeah, he was fine. :D

CBS Will Air Wedding of 'Survivors'

1 hour, 21 minutes ago Television - AP

NEW YORK - They fell in love on TV, and their nuptials will be shown on TV.

A two-hour prime-time special on the wedding of Rob Mariano and Amber Brkich, who were cast members on CBS' "Survivor All-Stars," will air May 24 (9 p.m. ET), the network announced Tuesday.

"Rob and Amber Get Married" will document the planning, the bachelor and bachelorette parties, and the wedding ceremony, which was held Saturday in the Bahamas.

Mariano proposed to Brkich on the live finale of "Survivor All-Stars" in May 2004. Since she wore a shirt proclaiming, "I (heart) Rob," the answer wasn't in much doubt.

She beat Mariano by just one vote to win the reality show's $1 million prize, but told The Associated Press afterward: "We didn't even care who was going to win. We knew we both had each other for the rest of lives."

"Boston Rob" Mariano earlier appeared on "Survivor: Marquesas." Brkich was first a castaway on "Survivor: The Australian Outback." They are now contestants on the seventh season of CBS' "The Amazing Race."

I think Kelly uttered what has to be about the most offensive thing I have ever heard, in the previews for next week. I'm still shocked. :distress:

And....
WOO-HOO, Uchenna & Joyce!!! I felt so bad for Joyce having to shave her head, but she has such striking features that she's just as gorgeous bald. :nod: I really hope they win!

How cool is it that Phil told Gretchen & Meredith that they are now officially the oldest team to have made it this far on 'AR'? :D

I'm sorry to see Lynn and Alex go... they were alot of fun, and seem to be a very sweet couple.

By the way, is anyone as P.O.'d as I am that they've been so stingy with the first-place prizes this season?! The girls won money the first leg, then the only other prizes awarded the rest of the season have been the three trips that Amber & Rob have won, and the vehicles that Ray & Deana won. That sucks.

Oh, and Lis... it looks like I was right about our handsome Indian friend afterall. ;) :laugh:

My mother actually called me and asked if I had heard what "the bitch" said to him. What a completely classless dolt.

I am so happy for M&G, I love them so much and they come through for me every week. I'd die from excitement if they won, honestly. And they have a shot at winning, too.

U&J get mad props from me. I'd love to see them win, also. Joyce is amazing and since she's so beautiful, she looked great without any hair, imo.

My crush on Phil grows deeper every week. Those wrinkles around his eyes are so hawt.

Balls meaning nerve. I thought it was incredibly insensitive and not only did it demean him, but it demeans all others who have been in his position. I think she's trying to make him snap and it's wrong. Even a few episodes back when she started screaming at him for speaking to her in a certain tone or some BS...she's crazy! He hadn't even said anything to her! (and if he did, it was edited out). I'm not a fan of her at all.

[macfanken]

Yay Meredith and Gretchen! Not sure how they do it every week but they're an inspiration. Uchenna and Joyce were also great. The POW comment during next week's previews just about knocked me out of my seat! Holy crap, that's not going to go over well at all! :(

[amber]

Didn't sweet gay couple get put off? very sad.

[ThePenguin]

Didn't sweet gay couple get put off? very sad.

Yeah, I really liked them. They were nice to each other for the whole race, never really bickered or got too irritable.

I so hate the POW and his nasty girlfriend, they need to disappear. And Rob and Amber are a good team but I still feel they have quite enough $ at this point!

Gretchen and Meredith do surpise me w/ how far they've gotten. Good for them.

I felt so bad for Joyce when she was getting her hair cut off. :( But on the upside I think all those braids were extensions...so after her hair grows in just a few inches she can get 'em all put back in again! And she did look really darn good w/ no hair. It was so sweet how Uchenna kept telling her she looked beautiful. Marty wouldn't be into a bald me at all LOL.

-Lis

[skcin]

I cried, literally cried, when Joyce had her head shaved. :( I think she's great, and Uchenna was so supportive, teling her she didn't have to do it. And she's beautiful even without hair. I so hope they win. They seem so real, so supportive of eachother.

Couldn't help think that Rob would have held Amber down & shaved her head even if she was kicking & screaming & telling him no. :rolleyes: They are evil & must be destroyed.

Sad about the gay boys. They will be missed. :nod:

Kelly? Is a moron. My jaw dropped when she said that to Ron in the preview for next week. Ass. :mad:

Me too and I predicted that would happen to Romber early on, said karma's gonna get him! I can't believe he said all of that about Uchena and Joyce who are certainly NOT stupid and have been racing using their own strengths and skills NOT riding the coattails of anyone. Rob's an idiot and I hope they're out next week.

Ewwwwwwww, Paula! :laugh:

[SuzeQuze]

Ewwwwwwww, Paula! :laugh:

:cringe: Totally!

Go Gretchen and Meredith & Uchena and Joyce!

[Livia]

I don't know if they'll eat any curry since the next leg has them in (kind of a spoiler, but not really if you've seen the previews)...........





































LONDON!!!! I'm so excited! Maybe they'll have to eat mushy peas or chug some Watney's Red Barrell? :shrug: But it doesn't look like any food challenges are happening...

[Livia]

So there really are whirling dervishes, eh? Who knew? :shrug: How could you not love them? They twirl like Stevie! LOL Kinda reminded me of the Talk to Me video....that one shot of Stevie, in a white dress, spinning just like 'em...

Turkey looks absolutely beautiful. My Grandma's been there, she loved it...

Sigh. Farewell, Meredith and Gretchen! You were by far the most impressive team, old or young!

Love 'em or hate 'em, Romber did great this leg...I'm still rooting for Uchenna and Joyce. And why didn't Kelly ask that woman for some foundation or Clearasil instead of lipstick? I'm being mean...but I do know that lipstick does brighten up your whole face...and most women, if they only have one item of makeup in their purse, it's lipstick!

I enjoyed reliving London!! :nod:

I know - I was like, "dervishes, really?" And the way Morob said it (deverishes, than dervershes) made me LOL. Jackass.

Ron & Kelly are so incompatible - give it up. I hope they don't win, cuz they're just rude to eachother & it annoys me. Romber-puke.

Go Uchenna & Joyce! :thumbsup:

Who would have thought Meredith and Gretchen would have made it to the final four? They were the most determined team, bar none. They proved as much when Gretchen climbed that wall and Meredith pulled that elephant with Gretchen in it. :laugh: Definitely one of my favorite teams ever, right next to Charla and Mirna.

Romber must go down. Quickly. They aren't even racing, they're having others do it for them. That's what they've been doing all along and it stinks. The glee they derive from the misfortune of other teams is very disturbing, but I suppose the same can be said for the glee I have whenever Romber f*cks up.

Gah! Self-awareness? Stop it right now. Are you really Diss? Where is Diss? ;)

I agree, M & G were so perfect I loved them and can't believe how well they did! :thumbsup:

My brother watched last night's episode with me, and had me cracking up the whole time... especially when he said, "Oh, great, the old guy's probably gonna drive that bus with his turn signal on the whole time."

What a pity they were eliminated when it should have been Rob & Amber or Ron & Kelly (is it just me, or is she the least attractive beauty queen of all time?).

They aren't even racing, they're having others do it for them. That's what they've been doing all along and it stinks.I've been complaining about that, too. Everyone else has made it as far as they have, on their own merits... Rob & Amber just find some knowledgeable local, and let them do all the work. Lame.

I forgot to post about Kelly's grody lipstick borrowing from a stranger. Ew.

Nice hygiene, herpe! :wavey:

She should have asked her for cover-up or Clearasil.

Tonight's the 2 hour Finale! :eek:


Go U&J!

[wondergirl9847]

GO UCHENNA AND JOYCE!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[ontheEdgeof17]

This Is Intense!

[wondergirl9847]

YES!!!!!!!!!!

[ontheEdgeof17]

:thumbsup: Our Predictions were right on! :thumbsup:


Thanks Blogs! :laugh:

[Johnny Stew]

That was a total nail-biter of a finale.... but one helluva a happy ending!!!!!

[skcin]

So I have it on Tivo, all I can think about at the airport on the way home is when I can watch it. I buy a People to read about Renee & Kenny & I accidentally see the blurb about U&J winning.

GODDAMMIT!

How was I to know that People would have it printed the next day! Oh well, I love them & I'm happy & I'll watch anyway.

Oh, and about 10 minutes after I read it, the assh*le next to me is on her cell phone & says "oh, so the Russian kid got voted off Idol, huh..." Good. God. I have no luck with spoilers! :shrug:
