Rico Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Thank God this most epic show is back! I did think the $2M angle was a bit of a stretch, thought the winners would be getting it outright. No real favs or hated teams here yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clippers of Nfl Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Thank God this most epic show is back! I did think the $2M angle was a bit of a stretch, thought the winners would be getting it outright. No real favs or hated teams here yet. I would like to see a season where the 1st last team on the show gets to stay for one more leg. Non elimination. They go through so much to just travel to one country and go home a day or so later. What do you guys think about this? ps. loved the jr champion playing table tennis with a clipboard and other inferior playing tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) I would like to see a season where the 1st last team on the show gets to stay for one more leg. Non elimination. They go through so much to just travel to one country and go home a day or so later. What do you guys think about this? ps. loved the jr champion playing table tennis with a clipboard and other inferior playing tools. I came into this show kind of recently, so you'd have to ask a student of this show like AJ or look it up somewhere for the complete and accurate picture, but they have done a first-show non-elimination leg a couple times IIRC. Definitely when the Cowboys came in last in the Second Chances season premiere. And I may be misrembering it, but didn't the twins (IIRC they had Hawai'ian names and I don't remember when, but recent, maybe even last season), who walked w/in ~200 feet of Phil and the check-in... and then went wildly off track, get another go? Fat blonde-Mohawk dude is already on my nerves. It never ceases to amaze... the people who go on this show and then can't be bothered to spend 10 seconds reading and fully understanding what they have to do in a task. Two helpings of frog Fallopian tubes BECAUSE YOU'RE !@#$ING STUPID!!!!!! Edited October 2, 2012 by UConn James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Season 15 was where the first team was eliminated at the starting line. There was a license plate task they did not complete in time. Can you imagine being gone and not even leaving the starting area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think the Cowboys week 1 non-elimination was a last minute production save, a lot of viewers would've gotten pretty hot if they were bounced off the bat. Other than that, Clippers I say leave as-is. The girl that lost this week was OK, but the guy was kind of a jerk, don't need to see him anymore.

UConn James Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Damn. Second to dead last because of stevestojanny cab drivers. I was really rooting for this team. That's just an amazing competitive spirit and kudos to AR for being TOTALLY inclusive to people with disabilities... and then have them show the world that they're more "able" than many. This team had better be offered a slot in the next Second Chances race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zevo Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 as a side note...friends of ours will be on the next season....they just got married yesterday...I have never watched the show....should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team had better be offered a slot in the next Second Chances race. I was very surprised that they weren't given a non-elimination pass. Still have no favs or hated teams yet, though the Hindu girls really need to STFU already. as a side note...friends of ours will be on the next season....they just got married yesterday...I have never watched the show....should be interesting. Excellent, congrats to your friends! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Damn. Second to dead last because of stevestojanny cab drivers. I was really rooting for this team. That's just an amazing competitive spirit and kudos to AR for being TOTALLY inclusive to people with disabilities... and then have them show the world that they're more "able" than many. 100% with you on the disabilities thing....I not only love that AR gives them the opportunity to compete, but I love how often they take the opportunity and just run with it. Same holds true for some of the senior racers that have been on the show....I love seeing the diversity among the contestants and I will almost always be quietly encouraging them as i watch them on the screen. Some of these tasks are grueling, and seeing the competitive spirit come out is really a thing to see. That's partly whey I get so perturbed when the whole "ugly American" attitude starts to creep in with some of them....as I've said before, even though I'd love to win that much money, in this case the journey TRULY would be the reward for me. I don't expect them to stop and smell the roses while they're racing around the world, but at the very least, be mindful of the tremendous opportunity you have and don't allow petty crap to ruin the experience for you or others. This probably the one reality show where I really don't care if there is any drama. It does get interesting when you have a new relationship that is being put to the test by the race, but for me the greatest appeal of the show is living vicariously through the participants and they travel to places and experience things I never will. So glad this show is back, and I hope it's got many years of life left in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajzepp Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 And they yell louder, like that's going to help you understand. Complete ignorance....they weren't on the race very long, but they already rank up there among the most classless teams to ever be on the show.

ajzepp Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Yeah, very classless indeed. Glad they got the boot! Next up, the annoying twins! Yeah, they're pretty annoying too. Who stops to try and see her reflection in the "U-turn" stand just to see if her hair looks okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Yeah, very classless indeed. Glad they got the boot! Next up, the annoying twins! I'll drink to that, they need to go. Blond bimbos didn't bother me, I'm more glad that the dreaded U-turn didn't work on Mutt & Jeff, HATE that move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Yeah, they're pretty annoying too. Who stops to try and see her reflection in the "U-turn" stand just to see if her hair looks okay? Actually I think the twins are very funny. There is no team I hate right now. I'm just glad to have AR back. It is the best reality/competition show on tv.
