I voted for Jon & Al....

not sure why, just have a feeling that they won't be around much longer since they seem to not take the race aspect as seriously as the other teams do. Although they still do have their FF to use......

I hope we get to see two teams go for the fast forward on the same episode soon.......Only four of the remaining teams still have theirs.

Although, I would most like to see David & Jeff eliminated. They just bore me to tears...... of course that is probably mostly because of editing since they just have not been shown much.

Who's to say they didn't mean Disney's "Chip'n'Dale"?


The only question would be, who's the goofier of the two?

And the team eliminated was:


The show is over and no discussion? No post about it in over 24 hours? Strange.

I have a confession to make: I have a crush on Millie Mole.

Patman

With the warm weather climate locales, I'm gonna

DRG

Might explain why he's still a virgin.

B.A.

Dammit - the Mole and wolfman are still around!

I was liking the new and improved team of Tian and Jaree. They were actually becoming enjoyable to watch. Tian is one tough chicka for being dragged through the mud behind the bulls. I would wrestle in the mud w/ her anytime.

Dave/Jeff are starting to flow pretty good and playing the race nicely.

The Clowns looked good tonight, too.

Kelly/John weren't too bad tonight either. John is pretty funny when he isn't being an ******* to his old lady.

BDB

Crap Millie sucks.

Dave and Jeff are looking Strong. Pulling it together towards the end.

Skorp

Man, that sucked! I so wanted the Mole & the Werewolf to go tonight.

I was really upset when it became apparent that one of my 2 favorite teams (R/C and T/J) was going to be eliminated. Why, oh why, couldn't this have been a non-elimination round???

D/J, J/A and K/J are racing really well at the moment. But all the teams (except for R/C) picked the wrong Detour. Knowing that the choice is always between Fast/Difficult and Slow/Easy, why would they opt for the slow elephants? Going for the chicken run was the move that saved R/C.

Bye, Tian & Jaree. You helped keep TAR4 interesting and I, for one, will miss you.

What's with all the negative feeling for The Mole and Werewolf? They are a cool team. I hope they can go all the way.

Random thoughts:
why didn't Chip and Reichen go for the fast forward? They seemed way too patient with that slow taxi-driver. I thought they were going to be philimated because they shown them getting lost on the tricycle. The editors were tricky this week by throwing that curve.
I think that Jon and Kelly are being edited as the villians so they might be in the final 3. Dave and Jeff are getting more face time and remind me the winners of AR2 -Chris and Alex. It's another TARsday and yet another GREAT episode!

Ok, I'm a Amazing Race n00b: The fast forward is available to everyone in every leg? I know it can only be used once by each team for the entire race.

I guess I got the impression that the fast-forward would only be available in one envelope and it was the luck of the draw.

Patman

Yes, the fast forward is always an option for any team that hasn't used one previously.

Yep, I'll miss Tian's smokin' bod.

bralph

One reason I think T&J chose the elephant instead of the chickens is one of them (Tian??) struggles mightily with anything cardiovascular. I don't think the bike would have been much faster for them.

icondude

They didn't show this in DC. They showed weather radar for a whole freaking hour
Of course when CSI comes on they show that.

Patman

Oh yeah, forgot about Jaree's 20 years of smoking handicap.

Iron Chef

I'm going to miss the boobage from T&J.

Groucho

That is correct. At some point during the leg, everybody gets the Fast Forward information and can use it if they so desire.

I'm not sure why Reichen and Chip didn't go for the fast forward. Seemed a bit of a gamble not too since they knew they were lagging behind. Lucky for them, they had a chance to use their physical skills to pull ahead.

Kudos to David and Jeff for managing to maintain their lead and keep playing strong. Personality wise, however, we still know little about them.

I'm officially rooting for the clowns now. Genuinely good guys who are entertaining and enjoy themselves.

joels1017

The clowns are exactly that...CLOWNS...its like watching a comedian..these guys always feel like they have to be funny and it is beginning to wear thin on my nerves...im hoping they are elimated soon.

BDB

I can see Chip and Reichen going for the FF in the next leg to boost them up the rankings, but it looks like with 5 teams left we are getting closer to a non elim round.

I think they would have had to use the fast forward as soon as they got off the train, and at that point they surely thought they were still in it.

Skorp

Last year, the non-elims were on Legs 8, 9 & 12. If they hold true to that pattern, then we'll see one next week. If it is, then I hope C/R don't blow the FF on a non-elim leg (as did Jon Vito & Jill last season).

As for why C/R didn't use the FF this episode: If it was available when they got the taxis at the train station, then I can understand why C/R wouldn't have used it, since they weren't that far behind at that point. And, by the time they got to the highway billboard route marker (and had already run out of gas with the slow taxi driver), they probably figured that it was too late to change direction and go for it.

Khalid

Didn't the father and (cheerleader son) from last year's show finish last even after using a fast forward? I think Chip and Reichan felt they were close to the others and/or it might've been too late to go for it that near the end of the leg.

tofu

I like how they always haul ass towards the finish line even though they know they're in first place. You never know when those minutes might come in handy. THey're looking pretty strong though.

Good episode last nite. The bull thing looked fun although pretty disgusting especially when I think about what's in the water.

I liked Jon's joke on the train. I thought it was funny. But then again, I'm not a girl being stared at.

Who still has a FF available to them? I know Mille and Chuck don't. But everyone else does right?

Groucho

Yep. Which gives Millie and Chuck a significant disadvantage if they get caught behind. BTW, you can always see who has what by reading the summary in Mark's poll each week.

FP = Shows the legs where the team has come in first place.

LP = Shows the legs where the team has come in last place.

FF = Shows which leg the team used a Fast Forward, if any.

Speaking of this, do you think Kelly was really "groped" on the train? I think she is probably exaggerating. Somebody's hand (probably accidentally) rubbed her backside and she is now freaked out about nothing. Touching is obviously unavoidable when the train is that packed! Plus, she seems like the overly dramatic type, ala Flo from last season.
