The Amazing Race (10/23)

This should prove interesting. A fast-forward actually ELIMINATES a team in last weeks episode. This should prove interesting in this week's poll.

Next Week on THE AMAZING RACE:
Spoiler:
* A Team crashes their truck into a pole.
* One Team taunts the others at an airport, prompting a head-to-head confrontation between them and another Team for the entire leg. Who will come out on top?
* Every little decision makes a world of difference when several Teams panic and sprint to the finish line in an all-out race to avoid elimination.

Yeah, I think that was the first time that a Fast Forward team actually got eliminated. Threw me for a surprise that did. I voted for Terry & Ian again this next week, because they seem to be the weakest and now they are arguing with each other and Ian seems to be a p*n*shead!

Amazing Race 10-23

Spoiler:

What part of WALK didn't you understand? Lol. How do they expect to be decent lawyers when they can't even interpret that correctly?

And Gerard running like a girl made me laugh until my side hurt.

Stupid Lawyer Chick #1: It says "WALK"
Stupid Lawyer Chick #2: Maybe they mean "walk once you get there."

Gotta love it. All their arrogant bragging about going to Hahvahd didn't come in too handy. "Get off the sidewalk! Stupid American drivers coming through!!"

Arianne trying to keep goal was quite amusing.

It seems every team wondered what the definition of "walk" was, but it was in the rulebook all along.

Glad to see "Team Skank" eliminated.

Thread merged... remember, feel free to e-mail the mods if you want to get in touch with us.

Suck it down, Hahvahd. Because you thought it would be a good idea to go on The Amazing Race 3 so you could annoy people in other countries, too, you will be forever known as "The Lawyers That Can't Read." Good luck with your future career!

And the Brothers gonna work it out... two more solid legs from the four Brothers. I was really excited when they said that they were allying, although it seems like they dropped their alliance. Hopefully we'll see them back together again soon.

How many sentences did the A-holes, Aaron and Aariane, utter that didn't have the words "twins" or "brothers" in it? You want to catch the Brothers. We get it. Shut up already. And calling Ian the Ugly American? Hypocrisy, thy name is Aaron.

I love Teri and Ian's never-quit attitude. "We're right in the middle of the pack!" *two minutes pass* "We're last." Hey Ian, maybe if you started beating your wife instead of just verbally abusing her, she'd move a little faster. Jerk.

I so wanted Andre and Damon to drop Hahvahd's wine. "Okay, we moved our truck!" *CRASH* "Oops."

Due to a CBS Special Report pre-emption, I was unable to catch the portion from when the last team (Aaron & Arianne) got their last instructions to the final minute where the ruling was announced. If anyone still has it on PVR or tape, please e-mail me. Thanks.

This means that the weekly poll will be delayed until CBS updates their website.

Same thing happened here in Arizona but it had just gone to commercial when Aaron and Arianne realized they were the last team doing the soccer challenge.Then it came back as we see them sitting with the Team Harvard. I was pissed for so many reasons but was kind of happy to see them eliminated.

I am telling you, Reese Witherspoon's character, Elle Woods from Legally Blonde, is smarter than the two girls from Team Harvard. I thought it was just supposed to be a movie, I didn't know it was a true story. Is Harvard just handing out law degrees now?!

Hee hee. Well, as long as Team Hahvahd isn't driving, I think it'd be okay... otherwise, I'd be worried that they'd run over poor Phil.

"What did I hit?"
"Heather and Eve... you're the first team... to run over the host of The Amazing Race with a car. Call 911."

That was hilarious last night. Really, I can understand that in their rush they misread the clue, but then to try to justify by saying that they have to walk to the finish...once they get out of the car? I wouldn't want either one of them defending me.

It was cool how I think Phil tipped the stupid chicks to their doomed fate even before he sat them down......

Doesn't he usually say, "A&B, you are team number 1", etc....

And did he not last night say, "Heather and Eve, you are the first to arrive", etc....

How stupid can you be, "it says walk, but they don't mean you have to walk the whole way, right?"

If they would have drove back and walked they would have made it anyway.

I was hoping Ian & his wife would get eliminated.
I really hate this guy.
He is so obnoxiuos !

I was hoping Arianne wouldn't get eliminated, she's hot.

I can't believe she rammed into a immovable POLE in the GROUND. And she didn't just tap it. She tried to drive right over the freaking thing.

Cop and Fireman are seeming stupider and stupider every week.

I was hoping Aaron and Arriane would get eliminated. That dude is sooo annoying.

I cringed when he started yelling "Taxi" in the airport terminal.

The sad thing is, if the girls would have gone back to the soccer field, they still probably would have had time to beat A&A.

Thanks for nothing. I wanted Adrienne off so bad. She is ugly and seems like a complaining bitch every time she talks.

That combined with his old man shuffle/run. Cracks me up.

He doesn't offer to take his wifes pack or anything when she is struggling he just screams at her. He kind of reminds me of some of the bosses I've worked with before.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Teri didn't divorce Ian by the end of the race. What kind of support is "I love you, keep running!!"? He could have at least grabbed her pack. And what's with making her roll the barrel all the way up the gang plank?

For a while, I thought that Michael and Kathy were going to break up because of this race but that last part of the race where they were walking to the castle and she was hurting. That was nice.

at the lawyer girls. I'm glad they got eliminated. But now we'll never know what they did with all of that money. Harvard Law is really taking a hit with these girls.

I can see it now: "Sorry, we misread your not-guilty verdict. Oops."

I was so glad to see them lose but I would've been just as happy seeing Aaron and Arianne go -- I'm so sick of them dissing the twins for no good reason. "We're right on their asses..."

Yeah, I bet he wishes that because a lot of people are wondering why him and Arianne are just life-long friends.

I didn't like the twins at first but they seem all right. Come on how can you not like those guys who are so laid back and self-absorbed that they ran (instead of catching a cab) to that attempted fast foward and then they actually worked on a tan while waiting for a bus.

I was pissed off about the train station evening everything out until it put Aaron and Arianne in last place. I kind of wish they would've been eliminated instead of Harvard just because they are only about a half hour behind the leaders and they've been near the front the whole time. We may be stuck with them for a while. I'm hoping maybe being in last place will give them some humility and Aaron will shut up about the twins already. Why the hell didn't he play goalie anyway? Arianne was awful at it, and the one clue they had was being tall helps.

And of course Ian had to do his obnoxious yell when they weren't eliminated. What stupid thing did he say this time? I forget. It wasn't as bad as, "Beam me up Scotty" because there wasn't a local person there to greet them. I'd be afraid of what he'd say if they go to Africa and greet them like he did in Scotland.

He said "God Bless America!" What the hell does that have to do with anything?

I guess it was his "cat like quickness" that pulled them throught at the end.

I am really not liking Michael very much. He is Milktoast. Kathy needs to kick his ass and tell him to stop whining and being a wuss.

Well, Aaron plays the female role in their relationship and Aaron plays the male. Makes sense as Arienne looks like a man and Aaron acts and speaks like a girl.
