I like the out gay couple Lynn and Alex, I feel they are this year's Oswald and Danny. I loved those guys.
I like Rob and Amber. I am actually pulling for them. I was on the fence about them before, but everyone's obsession with them is pushing me towards them.
I'm happy with this season so far...There are a few times I can see liking.

Ray and Deanna are Jonathan and Victoria (from last season) waiting to happen. Ray is a bit psycho.
Definitely. The producers seem to think now that they HAVE to have this sort of a team on every season now. Unfortunately, they didn't pick a real interesting cockface this time around; he may be a monstrous jerkoff, but it's not really translating through the TV all that well -- he's coming off rather bland in fact.

- There was an eating Roadblock where the racers had to eat 4 pounds of meat; failing to do so would give you a 4 hour penalty from the arrival point of the next team at the Roadblock. Rob bailed on the task pretty quickly, then talked TWO other teams (Ray & Deana, Meredeth & Gretchen) into bailing as well, in the process ensuring at least an hour and a half lead over said bailing teams and pretty much guaranteeing that he and Amber would not be eliminated this leg.
- Lynn and Alex won the leg narrowly over Uchenna and Joyce; Uchenna out-ate Lynn on the Roadblock but U&J got lost on the way to the Pit Stop.
- Susan and Patrick continued to suck ass by first not figuring out how to get out of Santiago for an hour, then by Patrick being the second-to-last person to arrive at the Roadblock and then verge on wimping out of eating the meat.
- Patrick only ate the meat after Bianca and Debbie finally showed up and Bianca totally shamed him by chowing down so quickly that she cut a two hour lead down to something on the order of 10 minutes. Alas, it still wasn't close enough and the secret lovers (yes, that's what they are) were PHILIMINATED.

I believe the line went something like "Wait, aren't we supposed to drive over the Andes? Why are we driving by the ocean?"

Eh? Rob owned Survivor when he was on it (Survivor All-Stars), and now he's owning Amazing Race.
On paper (whatever that means, just go with the term for now) R&A are the clear front-runners and nobody is even close to them. Teams that were looking sneaky and dangerous in the first couple of weeks are now gone (Secret Lesbians, Susan and Patrick). The brothers are strong, but they're too prone to major fuckups (looks like next week will bring the fuckup to end all fuckups). The grandparents have no chance. Ray=Jonathan from last season, except that Jon was an asshole but he was also a very good racer, whereas Ray is just an asshole. The Gay Boys are the most annoying thing on TV right now, competing with R&A in silly paddle races within the race that exist only in their own mind and then bragging about it for four hours afterward.
Rob and Amber are the shit.

Can we get scare quotes around "Beauty Queen"? After Christie, Nicole and then Kendra, this year's pageant chick is a big step down in looks.
Also, Uchenna and POW are both tremendous goobers, though U. hasn't done anything dickfaced enough to warrant anything beyond mild amusement.

What's ILE's take on Amber & Rob re: Pull Over-gate? Should they have stopped? They could have at least yelled out the window like the other teams did, although the difference between doing that and just driving by was minimal in terms of the outcome of the stage.

Between this and the dude on local public access wearing a Yankees Suck t-shirt and a Red Sox cap and ranting about how unfair it is they charge ya long distance to call from Prahvidence to Wahwick Rhodylin, it was a wicked awesome night of TV.

As for Rob and Amber, they totally should have pulled over and rolled down the window. Losing 30 seconds in a race to pretend they have a heart wouldn't have killed them.

I love how Ray and Deanna, even WITH that fast forward, lost, seemingly only because Ray is a douche and was more interested in making Deanna feel bad about herself than grinding corn. What a fuckstick!
Oh, and I love how dude kept saying "Meredith and whatshisname" and finally his wife was like "Meredith is the GUY".
― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 13:15 (nineteen years ago) link
It was so sweet to see them philiminated. I especially like how Gretchen and Meredith outlasted them, after all of Ray's trashtalking about them being too old and weak to be in the race.
