Amazing Race 09/10

1. I REALLY like that the clues are less straightforward and more complicated. 

2. I do not have a favorite team yet but I liked the snowboarders last night.

    They were cracking me up with their wheelies!

  • I don't love any of the teams so far either but I also liked the snowboarders last night, especially since they helped the team in last place.  And it got the showgirls eliminated, so even better.  You could tell they felt bad about winning the first place prize solely because the father-son team that they were so close with was waiting out a penalty.  I would have felt bad about that too.

    This was the first episode that I've watched, so I haven't really gotten the feel of most of the teams yet.  

    I didn't dislike the snowboarders, but I HATED the wheelies and other stunts they were doing on the bikes.  The Amazing Race gives people an opportunity to experience different cultures.  The bike tour was clearly a pretty traditional thing, and I felt that the wheelies/handstands/etc. was really rude and somewhat mocking of the tradition.

    To be honest, I hadn't even thought of that. Now that you say it, I can see that side of it. 

  • I like they are doing that with the clues too.  

     

    so far my favorites are the former NFL player and his wife - I think they communicate so well and he appears to have a lot of respect for her and she for him.  I like the  snowboarders too.

  • I love the snowboarders! And I like the dad and son, too. And the former NFL player and his wife. And Ma and Pa are cute :)

    So glad the showgirls are gone. 

    I agree, the less obvious clues are great.

    Any shot of Ma walking just cracks me up. She power walks everywhere she goes!  

  • I like the snowboarders, the father/son, and ma and pa.  I hate the NFL guy and his wife, or more specifically, I just hate the wife.  The snowboarders gave them the *exact* right answer and had her repeat it back to them and she couldn't manage to remember that for the 20 minute walk to the temple?  Why didn't she at least write it down? Dumb dumb dumb.  And he was dumb too for not paying attention.  WTF!

    Also, it totally cracked me up that Pa sat down like Buddha when he was doing his hand signals because he was exhausted and needed a rest, and then all of the other teams followed suit.  LOL!!
