CanadianChris Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 If Rob and Amber don't take this then they should be very, very ashamed. This is probably the weakest lineup in a long time and the fact that it's the All-Star Edition is laughable. Never underestimate the Guidos.
CanadianChris Posted February 27, 2007 Report Posted February 27, 2007 Was everyone watching the Oscars this week? I'm glad Kevin and Drew were eliminated. As much as I like them, Drew just wasn't into it at all, either physically or mentally. Hopefully Mirna & Schmirna (SO glad that caught on with everyone!) and Kentucky will be the next two out, in whatever order. They were both just horrid this episode. And Danielle needs to keep wearing what she was wearing as long as possible.
starvenger Posted February 27, 2007 Report Posted February 27, 2007 I'm glad Kevin and Drew were eliminated. As much as I like them, Drew just wasn't into it at all, either physically or mentally. He'd mentally checked out, so hopefully his Acapulco vacation was more relaxing. Hopefully Mirna & Schmirna (SO glad that caught on with everyone!) and Kentucky will be the next two out, in whatever order. They were both just horrid this episode. Love David and Mary (the fact that they're wearing the Ts the Chos had last race is gold), but as I've been saying, they don't belong in an "all star" edition. And Danielle needs to keep wearing what she was wearing as long as possible. The only thing I have against Eric and Danielle is that Eric is the smart one on that team. That can't be a good thing... Romber is still doing really well. It's gonna take some dumb luck to eliminate them. The same probably goes for the Cha Chas, who I think people underestimate because they're not exactly manly men. Mirna somehow managed to go 1 leg without pissing me off, but this leg she really got to me. I hate her fucking fake "local" accents. I hate her constant whining. I hate that she's so fucking hypocritical when it comes to following people, and people following her. Charla's main drawback is that she's got her blork of a cousin with her.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 5, 2007 Author Report Posted March 5, 2007 What a wild episode. BQ's missing a clue, but still not dropping a place, people getting lost all over the place, Teri falling off the boat, Charla/Mirna pissing off another team, Guidos getting mad at Eric/Danielle for no reason. Funniest part was C/M asking that guy to come w/ them, him telling them he has to go to work, then C/M grabbing him anyway and driving off. I totally forgot they did that, until he showed up AGAIN at the rapids. I hope the dude doesn't get fired. Big shock is promised for next week!
naiwf Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 The $50 they gave him was probably more than he makes in a week. I'm so glad David and Mary are gone that it doesn't bug me that Romber won't end up winning the million dollars even though they are so much better than everyone else that it's not much of a race right now.
starvenger Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 Big shock is promised for next week! You just know that it'll involve Rob and Amber. "Use your boobs!" Genius.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 5, 2007 Author Report Posted March 5, 2007 Well, I've read the spoilers, so I'm pretty sure I know what it'll be.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 5, 2007 Author Report Posted March 5, 2007 From the spoiler thread over at TWoP, which has been correct for the 1st 3 eliminations, so don't read if you don't want to be spoiled: Rob & Amber are the next team to be eliminated.
naiwf Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 So, is there a reason Rob & Amber didn't even run at the end? That was shenanigan-tastic.
CanadianChris Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 Figures that it would have to be a needle in a haystack Roadblock to beat Rob and Amber. I'm guessing the spread at the end was pretty wide. I want Mirna and Schmirna gone SO BAD. Mirna was just hideous tonight, yelling at Charla and putting her down the way she did.
Lord of The Curry Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 So Eric definitely makes an anti-gay joke next week. Guido seems like they'd be a pair of harpies when it comes to that type of stuff.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 12, 2007 Author Report Posted March 12, 2007 Man, there was a lot of stuff going on in this episode. I was thinking it was going to be a super-leg if not for the promised surprise. People are going to be ... surprised (?) ... towards the end of this season. Mirna/Charla make the final 3.
KingPK Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 Ugh, that sucked. Say what you will about them, but Rob and Amber made the other teams kick up their games to stay ahead of them. Not spelling Phillippines right when it was right in front of him was incredibly dumb of him. Mirna needs to team with Jonathan the Douche in the next All-Star edition. THAT would be fun.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 12, 2007 Author Report Posted March 12, 2007 I got a kick out of seeing Blake/Paige write the letter to Danny/Oswald. I'd rather have had them on than Dave/Mary to fill the "country bumpkin-ish" team. Blake always had some convoluted plan in the works, it was great. Also, they had that creepy incestuous-y vibe going for them.
fazzle Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 I found it hilarious that Susan/Patrick got to write two letters. Cause really, who the fuck remembers them?
starvenger Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 People are going to be ... surprised (?) ... towards the end of this season. After 'Bama made it into the final 3, nothing can surprise me. Blake and Paige... they were on my list for an All-Star season. There have been some hot women on this show, but Paige had a real girl-next-door vibe going. BTW, I found it hilarious that only Lyn signed the letter to the BQ. I mean, did Karlyn hate those girls so much that she couldn't even be bothered to sign the damn thing? My theory about Patrick, btw, is that he's repressing some feelings for Rob.
Lord of The Curry Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 I said that exact same thing last night. Patrick wanted to go Southie on Rob big time.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 17, 2007 Author Report Posted March 17, 2007 Looks like there are 2 episodes (or possibly a 2-hour episode) in 2 weeks (4/1). My DVR schedule is showing episodes from 8-9 (7th leg), and 9-10 (8th leg).
starvenger Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 I said that exact same thing last night. Patrick wanted to go Southie on Rob big time. According to TWoP, Rob apparently didn't even remember who Patrick and Susan were. Too funny.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 19, 2007 Author Report Posted March 19, 2007 Tupac the Rat! That Detour was wildly unbalanced, leading to the worst possible team getting a 1st. On the other hand, Oswald/Danny chasing Phil = gold.
CanadianChris Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 I can't believe so many people went and did the charcoal. That was as obvious of a Tortoise/Hare detour as I've ever seen. Plus, the producers always want to get people selling things on camera whenever possible. Eric and Pink getting kicked off the plane next week looks funny.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 19, 2007 Author Report Posted March 19, 2007 I'm sorta shocked the BQ's didn't do the charcoal task, as they've opted to do the physical tasks quite a bit during their Race stints. And I can't roll my eyes enough to express my disdain about how Mirna/Charla were gloating about "eliminating" Rob/Amber. Considering: 1) Rob/Amber ran a poor leg, 2) M/C's boat took less time to get to the island (according to the TWoP recap) than R/A's, meaning Rob didn't get as big of a head start as he should have, and 3) Rob got unlucky doing a needle/haystack task, Mirna/Charla are lucky they didn't get eliminated. Instead, they think they're hot shit. Whatever.
CanadianChris Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 I've decided that the less said about Mirna at this point, the better. I'm just glad it wasn't then getting non-eliminated, or I might have started throwing things at my brand new TV.
starvenger Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 Eric and Pink getting kicked off the plane next week looks funny. In case anyone is tempted to call shenanigans in advance, you CAN get kicked off a plane for no reason whatsoever. But it's more likely that they were at the bottom of the standby list and they had to get kicked off for something like the plane being overweight. Insert joke about Charla's ass here. And yeah, Danny and his "faggy racoon" buddy were hilarous chasing Phil around.
CanadianChris Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 And yeah, Danny and his "faggy racoon" buddy were hilarous chasing Phil around. Yeah. All that scene was missing was the Benny Hill theme.
starvenger Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 It pretty much underscores why they're one of the most popular teams, ever. You know there's no way any of other teams get away with chasing Phil like that. Well, except the Hippies, but they're not racing.
CanadianChris Posted March 26, 2007 Report Posted March 26, 2007 Well, that officially sucked. Not only do Mirna and Schmirna win again, one of the teams I wanted to see win got eliminated. Who knew so many people fly to Tanzania every day? The blank stare on Mirna and Schmirna's faces when Phil told them they'd won a pair of catamarans was priceless, though. As were the jokes from Ozzie and Danny that were continually flying far above their heads.
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 26, 2007 Author Report Posted March 26, 2007 That was crazy w/ all the flight goings-on. I bet they called an audible when Charla/Mirna got to the boats, as the probably didn't want 1 team to have a *HUGE* jump on everyone else. "The weather" (ha!) sure didn't look bad. And was I seeing things, or did a few teams not actually hit the target during that Roadblock? Looked like some of them only hit the stake, causing the actual target to fall off & break. Looked like the BQ's and maybe 1 other team. And speaking of the BQ's, it was nice if the editors to give us a slo-mo shot of the 2 of them jogging with their cart during the Detour. Yummy.
