It's not a coincidence every season she's touched has turned to ****.

Twinnies still rocking it. Really hope the chippendales don't U Turn them next week

I pretty much like all the teams left, minus Abbie & Ryan and they're last and look like they're going to miss another flight next week so hopefully they'll be gone soon.

[starry]

This season has been more about taxis than about the teams.

[Macie Lightfoot]

Actually a good episode tonight? I'm shocked.

[rk3388]

The twins ftw. I had a feeling they would miss their flight but im so glad i was wrong

[starry]

I thought it was pretty disappointing. It's meant to be a race and yet a weak team survives because the the twins and Trey/Lexi basically put pressure on the Chippendales to u-turn Abbie/Ryan. Abbie and Ryan left the detour first and get no reward whatsoever for it. Them not being allowed on the earlier plane was rather convenient for the producers as well, though the colluding over the u-turn obviously meant there was no tension towards the end anyway. The whole point of a double u-turn is to have two teams competing against each other, not for a team to make it a boring single u-turn with the predictable outcome. The painting detour looked a lot more interesting though we didn't see much of it. Locations were pretty good though. The 2 million twist I always thought was boring anyway, so I never cared about that. The twins were annoying again at times, and Lexi reverted to her loud yays at the detour. Quite a disappointing final group of teams.

Ryan can bitch about it all he wants but that's what he gets for working together with Beakmans for like three Legs straight when they knew they were in the back.

[starry]

The farmers started that alliance, they were desperate to have company as they had been at the back for so long. And at one point the farmers had a 4 hour penalty so it made sense to keep with them. They wouldn't have been with them at all on the last leg as they had got different planes but for some strange reason the twins were allowed to make their connection but Abbie and Ryan weren't. And then they had mechanical problems on another aircraft.

[Marc]

I can't see how Ryan and Abbie can feel betrayed.. they intended to race this hard and they did. They thought they were a good, strong team and they should fully respect the tactical move used against them. If anything it's a compliment to them.. even though for the last couple of legs they were atrocious

[starry]

The twins have had such a better edit than Abbie/Ryan, it would have been quite easy to make them the arrogant villains of this season. It would be interesting to see their plane have a mechanical failure and see if they implode.

"for some strange reason" my god your obsession with Abbie and Ryan and how they were robbed is a bit creepy. And ridiculously, considering how you're talking about how the strategical U-Turn ruined the integrity of the game or whatever. And somehow the two teams in last place working together and waiting for each other when they know they're in last place doesn't ruin the integrity of the game. Especially when one of those teams is all intense and obsessed with breaking the most first place finishes record.

THISSSSSS
and i loved when he had to do that time zones thing and he thought he was so darn smart, then he did the worst out of all the groups

[Macie Lightfoot]

It's all great now. I really didn't mind Abbie and Ryan during the Race but now they're ridiculous. Mainly Ryan though, he's been absolutely ridiculous on Twitter telling people to watch the AMAs instead of his boot because the AMAs are "less scripted." Along the fact that arguably the most competitive person left in the race wouldn't stop bitching about how the U-Turn wasn't unfair when we all know he would've used it without hesitation if given the opportunity (even on the Beakmans if he had to.)

[starry]

Nothing wrong with Abbie at all. Anyway all the teams have worked together, the Chippendales tried to hale a taxi at the end of a recent episode for another team, that was really ridiculous and ludicrous.

But the Chippendales giving in to the twins was like Art and JJ trying to put pressure on the other teams last season to u-turn Brendon and Rachel. It's just that last season teams were stronger and could actually do what they wanted rather than just be pressurised by other teams.

The truth is most people wouldn't like this tactic of being able to wrongly u-turn a team that can't be u-turned if it was against a more popular team. Admit it.

I see nobody argues against me saying that the twins could easily have been made the arrogant villains of the season.

Hello! Can i watch this show on line? It sounds so good!

[Marc]

Yes Vanessa, we're a fair few seasons in now though so you'll have to catch up if you want to watch it all

Obviously teams have worked together, that's nothing new. But there's a difference between "hey let's work together to avoid being last" and "I know we're in last, but let's work together anyways." Especially when you're the one acting like U-Turns ruin the integrity and spirit of the race.

The truth is that you don't like the tactic because it was used against a team you like. I don't see what the big deal is since A) it's not like any team in this subpar cast is that stellar B) this was by far the best episode of the season and C) it's smart racing by Twins/Chippendales/Texas.

Nobody's arguing your idea of the twins being arrogant villains because nobody agrees with you and it's irrelevant to the whole matter of things. It's not like Abbie and Ryan have had a bad edit by any means (they were actually quite likable up until this episode) and it's not like the twins have had a good edit by any means. That hasn't been the case at all.

[starry]

I don't like the tactic anyway, so I don't know why you even assume you know my mind, that's creepy. And I know it's a subpar cast I said that from the first episode, I guess you don't get me there either. It would just be nice to have some people who are at least half interesting left in the show, last season was plainly way better. lol at you saying Abbie and Ryan have been made likeable up to this episode, and it's obvious the twins have been given far more background and suggested as being more fun even though they are obviously arrogant and have many unlikeable traits (MANY do agree with me). It's obvious you didn't read my post on the supposed alliance between the farmers and Abbie/Ryan, because it was actually to the advantage of Abbie/Ryan in most of it, as I already intimated in a previous post. It's the farmers who are always at the back of the pack and who need company.

On episode 7

Spoiler:

Cant believe the twins and Lexi stealing the rockers money

If many people agree with you that the twins are arrogant and unlikable then how the **** can you complain about how they're getting such a better edit. If MANY do agree with you then clearly their edit isn't as good as you say. Abbie and Ryan haven't had a bad edit by any means. The twins are shown as annoying and have been shown stealing money. But yes, continue to victimize Abbie and Ryan and talk about how they were screwed in the race and screwed in the edit and screwed in every way possible

And it wasn't to their advantage at all. It's never to a strong team's advantage to (while knowingly being in last) align and slow down to work with an extremely weak team. Never. It's sheer idiocy and is why Abbie and Ryan were eliminated.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

What have Abby and Ryan done that is so bad? They was okay to me.

It's has to be online but don't be surprised if the UK gets it's own version. In the last few years, a bunch of countries have gotten their own version of the show recently (Most recent is France, which is the only country other than the Latin America Region version to have a leg in the US.) The US version has been running (No pun intended) for about 10 years.

Canada's getting their own Amazing Race. Production Company is the same as BBCanada's.
