The Amazing Race -- O/T

.....

Don and MaryJean ~ Well, I didn't think they could last much longer, and they didn't. I was still sad to see them go last night!

So, tell me what you think of what's his name and Victoria? I was thinking last night that he was on the verge of abuse with her.....I almost thought for a second that Phil was going to eliminate them based on his treatment of her! That was absolutely horrible, especially at the end.....

I really don't have any favorites at this point. I must say I am very (pleasantly) surprised at how high Gus and Hera keep finishing. Honestly, I didn't give them much of a chance the first week. I didn't think they would last this long!!!

I just saw Don and MaryJean on the CBS Early Show. What a truly nice couple. I loved what he said last night -- something about if only everyone could have the same beautiful relationship with their spouse that I have. What a lovely thing to say!!!

I think that's all....until someone else brings something else up!!!

The verge?? You did not see him push/hit her? He is disgusting and I think he is a jerk. I am not sure why this team was picked but I hope she leaves him, no one deserves to be treated that way. I cannot begin to imagine how he treats her when the cameras are not rolling, and behind closed doors. I really hope they are eliminated soon. Colin is a saint compared to this monster.


I loved how Gus was sampling the beer, very funny. I loved how he cried when they were at the slave location- that part of the show really moved me.

I will miss the grandparents, very sweet couple but forgot to tape the Early show.

So sorry to see them go but they did really well and are so sweet.

I definately think what's his name is a real jerk. He was just terrible last nite. And he did push her, I was thinking Phil was going to say more than he did. I'm just shocked at that being showed, he is promoting abuse imo.

I have no other favorites right now. As long as the jerk doesn't.

Gus and the beer was funny but I don't think his daughter thought so.

Oh yes, did you see the wrestler eating the raw sausage? Yuk!!

[Skeeter]

Yeah, you're right, Monica ~ he did. I had temporarily blocked it from my mind......

I forgot about Gus and the beer. That was great!!! I was worried he was goig to drink enough he'd be hungover a bit, but I guess not...

So fun....

Does anyone know how long each of these legs lasts -- in days? This one looked like it was all in one day? And how many days does it take to film the entire series? Just curious, I guess.....

Oh, yes....how could I forget him eating the raw sausage? Did he not know what he was eating, or what? Double yuck!!!

Jonathan was truly disgusting when he pushed her backpack and she was crying....don't the rules prohibit them from dropping their stuff and sprinting for the pit stop? Well they should if they don't....

I thought Kendra was involved in two of the ugliest incidents last night....when Hayden and Aaron were trying to buy their tickets and Hayden got so nasty with Bolo....and Kendra's comment in the cab about the locals and how they just keep breeding....

Jon and Kris have such a good attitude about the locals....I like them! May these nice guys finish first!

Thanks for the heads-up on the episode, V....you were right!

[Hi Mon..]

...it's V..


<<<The verge?? You did not see him push/hit her?>>>


Oh my gosh! One hand or two....it definitely knocked her off balance. I'm hoping they have a "suits" meeting and kick him (too bad V's got to go too) off and bring back the Seniors (as much as I'm glad to see them finally gone).


And where did the comment, something like 'I don't do sterroids, or I'm not on sterroids' come from? lol What a hoot! Lots of funny stuff being said....

[Hi S...]

...it's V..


<<<Jon and Kris have such a good attitude about the locals....I like them! May these nice guys finish first!>>>

Yes, I still like the visor couple...Jon & Kris. Always smiling and enjoying wherever they are and each other.



<<<I thought Kendra was involved in two of the ugliest incidents last night>>>

Yes........can't think of them right now but I know she's said some ugly things in the past as well. Could it be just editing or can she really be like that?


I think Daddy and his little girl will be next to go......how do they keep hanging on each week? lol

<<<where did the comment, something like 'I don't do sterroids, or I'm not on sterroids' come from? lol What a hoot!>>>

I don't know if this is what you were asking, but when they were at the ticket counter getting the tickets, they said something like "at least I don't take steroids," (that's not right, but something similar) when Bolo was trying to inch his way in to get the tickets....

In the end, wasn't that skirmish about the tickets a moot point anyways? Everyone got on the flight, didn't they? I do think they should have a rule that you can't get tickets for someone unless they are next in line or something. That doesn't seem fair.

I still can't get anyone's names right on this show, so I'm sorry that I'm not naming people!!!

Hi guys- they do not have to have the backpack with them when they get to the pit stop- Victoria was worried that it would get stolen. Petty much she is screwed either way- if she had kept it there, he would have blamed her, she takes it and still blames her. I just hate watching them, she flinches as if he has hit her before- this is just making me too uncomfortable. I just hope they do not have children, and hope that she leaves him.

I also cannot stand Kendra- her comments last night were very rude. My two favorite teams are Kris and Jon, and Gus and Hera. I think both teams are great, they treat each other, the other teams and the locals with respect and kindness.

The tickets could be a moot point, but there are times when there might not be enough seats on that plane. What if that was the case last night, Bolo had no way of knowing how many seats are left, he and his wife could have been on a later flight and been eliminated. I can understand alliances but I don't think teams should purchase tickets for others, especially if one team is not even at the ticket counter.
