The Amazing Race -- All-Purpose Thread

Rule No. 1 of TAR, READ THE CLUE!

But dad and son sure rallied from their mistake.

Well that was fun.

 

Re: The Amazing Race -- 2012-2013 All-Purpose Thread

It'll be interesting to see how they fare next week.

They're headed back to New Zealand. I hope they get Phil's dad to be a greeter again.

*shakes fist* To Be Continued episode already??

At least if the father/son choose not to go on, they're getting a trip to Bangkok out of it.

This show regularly fuels my desire to move to New Zealand. Between it and Lord of the Rings, at least. What a gorgeous country.

My thoughts exactly.

Looks like that leg will be non-elim, which is a shame. I was hoping Max and Katie go home.

Not sure what I do here if I am Dave/Connor. The trip is there's regardless of whether they go on or go home. (That leg is over, they won). If continuing to hobble around on an ACL tear would likely lead to permanent injury, then I'm done. But if it doesn't, then I think I would keep going. Worst case scearnio I get to something I can't do and that's that. If the Roadblock looks at all physical, give it to Connor. (Can only do that on half of them of course).

The fact that the title of this episode was "I love monkeys!" and not "There's no crying on the Amazing Race" is a massive CBS fail.

The monkeys were cute. I was waiting for one of them to grab the clue and take off.

LOVE Bali. I really want to go there someday.

For the love of god, John, put down your damn pride and use the Express Pass. Or listen to your significant other. They should have used it when they couldn't get the fruit sculpture right.

I loved Phil's expression at the end.

 

Re: The Amazing Race -- 2012-2013 All-Purpose Thread

The fact that it wasn't Oy Vey is the most surprising thing. Biggest goof I can remember on this show, having an express pass and not using it when you got in trouble with a challenge.

Did the tease for next week show us who wins next week? Because I don't remember a pit stop finish like they showed in the tease.

Edit: On second thought, I realized we don't know who won. But we did see a team finishing the next leg.

 

Re: The Amazing Race -- 2012-2013 All-Purpose Thread

I think (if we're talking about the same thing) they show Dave and Connor showing up at the pit stop but they don't give us any indication of where they are in the pack. So we know they finish, we just don't know where.

Sorry, guys. At my folks' house and my mom was recording two other shows so I couldn't watch TAR. I'll watch it online here in a bit and catch up with the scoring.
