I don't know how good this season is going to be if there's a bunch of kids involved. I'm normally rabid over this show, but I think this might be cause for concern. There'll be kids, people!!!

I know! Some as old as 9 years old. I can't deal. I hope they are not whiney. ...And 4 ppl on a team is way to hard for me to keep up with everyone.

Yikes, I'm giving this one a trial episode and if it stinks I won't be shocked. Or watching.

I can't imagine kids being any whinier than some of the "adults" they've had on the show (Will, Flo, Colin, JONATHAN)... I'm more concerned with the amount of members per team. I'm never going to be able to remember who's who and who's with whom.

Kids, blergh. Me and my friend wanted to apply, then I found out you needed four. She has a daughter, but....
yeah...
although I think JS might be right, some kids have to be way better than some past contestants.

Hmm, you make a good point...past contestants have been pretty intolerable in their childish behavior. The again its WAY more fun watching adults act like children rather than children act like children. And that's awesome that you were going to try out! Have you applied to anything else?

No, we just both wanted to go on that one. We wanted to travel all around, and solve problems. We're both smart, and my friend speaks spanish, and has traveled, and whatever, and we make a good planning team. She's logical and nice and pretty, I'm logical and althletic and whatever, we just work well together. She has Stevie's birthday...(

)
Ha, no, I'm not a reality TV whore, or anything. We just loved that one, and thought we would do really good on it. When we were watching, we couldn't believe what some people didn't know, and how they tripped out while traveling, and all that.

Who's the team all in orange, that seems to have two fathers?
When I read the bios, it didn't seem like there were any gay parents (not that there HAS to be, I was just curious if there would be, since AR is usually pretty diverse).

Nope. 3 brothers and a sister.

Ah, ok.

In that pic, at least, the oldest brother looks just a little younger than the dad.

Ooooh! I want to orange team to win already. Because they're wearing orange.

I'm halfway through season 5 (?) on GSN (God bless Tivo.) I don't hate anyone, for some reason. Oh wait, maybe the models. Millie The Mole & Chuck are kind of annoying too (as is the ever present "dating 12 years/virgins" caption every single time they're on.) I think Reichen is hot as hell too.

It's season four; season five is with Charla and Mirna ("I just got electrocuteeeeeeeed!"), Chip and Kim, the twins, Colin and Christie (gag), Team Jesus, etc. In other words, BEST SEASON EVER.

I loathe Chip and Reichen. I wanted to smack both of them. Though Reichen is pretty to look at.
