Hey! :P

Because they sing a capella, that tells me they work well together (harmoniously) and they're creative, and... they... um... hold on while I try to think of something else...

Actually, during one of the interviews with those guys one of them was doing backflips -- so it appears they have some athleticism too...

I got the home shopping hosts, so you know I'm already planning how to spend my $25 GC.

Oh man, Groucho! Out before it even got much underway. Honestly, I was surprised they fell behind. They were doing great.

And my nerds that we made fun of came in third tonight. Whodathunkit?

My team came in 2nd
That probably means they're going home in 2-3 legs.

I don't know about that--they seemed VERY smart and capable the entire leg. Unless they get a very bad taxi, my guess is they'll be around a while.

d-bag boyfriends with anger issues almost always seem to last long into the season. Though running miles/km around the castle looking for the pit stop doesn't bode well.

Just got around to watching this and I thought for sure I was a goner. My guys don't seem too bright... "Are you a battlement?"

There's everyone's free ride tonight.

Conner & Jonathan continue to surprise me. I don't think they'll win this thing, but at least they're keeping it interesting.

Brook & Claire are surprising me. I still don't think I'll win this thing, but I'm starting to think I'm going to be in it most of the way.

Agreed. They're also very likable, which I didn't expect either.

Thanks, I wasn't expecting a non-elim this early in the season. The real problem with my team was the same as some of the others that couldn't see the broad side of a barn!

Is it just me or is every dating team this season filled with douchebags?

Yeah, that cracked me up, especially since my team seemed to figure it out right away. I can't believe I came in first this round. I made a half-way-decent pick for once! :P

Pissy or not, I'm sort of still feeling my team as well. I hope they can be the first woman-woman team to win TAR. (At least I think there hasn't been an all-woman team to win TAR).

Not The Amazing Race in the US anyway. :P

I was freaking out for most of this episode but luckily my doctors pulled it out in the end. These taxis have not been kind to my team, hopefully their luck turns around.

And there goes my lucky team. If they had just skipped the skiing. Ah well. Better luck to me next race.

Ouch, sorry Jury Duty.

Loved how my Tattoo chick said something like, "we aren't too smart, but we can sled good".

In the end, I don't think they would have needed it, but it was the right choice given what they knew. Very smart of them not to risk finishing without using it.

Re: DVDTalk Amazing Race 17 Game

Tough break JuryDuty. The Gleeks did so well last week I never expected them to fall apart like that. I guess we have seen teams go from first place to elimination before, but it's not very common.
