Amazing Race

I was sad they got eliminated, but they handled it very nicely and graciously. It was inevitable as soon as the Globetrotters decided TO use the U-turn, and if the other teams hadn't given others the answer to the bike challenge, it likely wouldn;t have been them that got eliminated.

I agree. They were my favorite team, and I hated to see them go. Guess I'll need to pick someone else to root for.

I was not surprised at this week's elimination, as soon as they missed the "walk" part of the clue, they were doomed, and they had plenty of opportunities to realize their mistake as they saw other teams walking and running! Ah, well, they can still be misfits together.

I am liking the sisters more as people this go 'round, they seem much more comfortable with each other, too. I was wondering if the teams who brought their avalanche victim in in two pieces would get a small penalty for that, but I guess not!

That's what I was thinking, too! When they saw other teams walking, maybe that should have been a hint to them.

The friends really had a hard time with the rescue challenge. Those were some pretty small shovels.

Did you the doggie at the end?!! I did! I wanted to leap through the TV and hug him!

Yes, the team that was eliminated last night did that to themselves. I can't decide for sure who I want to win. I'm leaning toward Zev and Justin because we have a nephew with Aspberger's, but I would be fine with any of them.

We actually expected a Saint Bernard to be part of the rescue challenge, so were happy to see one at the Pit Stop matt!

Yay, yay, yay! XXXXXXXXX and XXXXXXXXX won the Amazing Race! I am so happy for them!

That underwater mermaid thing looked like a lot of fun!

I was happy, but would have been pleased with any of the final teams, honestly! I thought they matured a lot since their first season, and thought the other teams were gracious about just finishing, but not winning.

I'm not happy with today's outcome on the beach in Malawi. I thought the teams that were ranked first and second should have been the other way around.
