Pad big. Next week too. And in 3 weeks.

41 minute pad. Could have been worse...almost OT.

Boring leg. Poor decision air travel decided it. Not even the most generous of edits could make it exciting.

So did they make the mom and son do the challenges? Or do they just tell them there's no point? I would have liked to see how they dealt with them.

Occasionally, Phil will go find the people who are way behind and tell them it's over. In TAR 16, Phil went to the married couple on the battlefield who couldn't do the morse code challenge and eliminated them, and last season Phil met the football players at the airport and told them they were eliminated. |

:lol: Caro/Jen still trying to flirt with the cowboys.
Of all the things the Amazing Race wanted to showcase in Sri Lanka - a sweatshop?? Leo and the Globetrotters had too much fun sewing what looked like one of Courtney Love's old babydoll dresses. "It's worse than a puzzle because all the puzzle pieces are...moving." :confused: Nice that Jet was among the few to appreciate how much went into making clothes.

It would have been cool to actually see the twinnies in Sri Lanka.

Re: The Amazing Race: All-Stars -- "Can't Make Fish Bite" -- 3/23/14
No, it would still be too annoying. :lol:
Big Easy putting on his sewn shirt... rotfl |

Didn't they fly out of the same airport of the missing Malaysian plane? It was weird seeing the name Kuala Lumpur on the show after seeing it for the past two weeks plus. Imagine if this happened with TAR teams inboard?

Re: The Amazing Race: All-Stars -- "Can't Make Fish Bite" -- 3/23/14
Good move on Brenchel's part to do what it took. Their gamble paid off in taking the connector flight. Too bad the Globetrotters ended up beating them to the mat. :lol: They must have had one lost cabbie, since the 'trotters left the shirt factory after them and took the bus.
At least Luke didn't throw a hissy fit at the mat. Hopefully, they are done with any future races. |

What I mean to say is: Goodbye Luke! Next time I see you it will probably be as you sit in the aisle of a grocery store having a fit because they don't carry your brand of juice box and your mom won't take you to the store that does. As for Margie I'm torn between feeling sorry for her and blaming her. I need more info to make even a snap judgment, but I'm leaning towards blame. |
Re: The Amazing Race: All-Stars -- "Can't Make Fish Bite" -- 3/23/14
It bothered me that 2 teams finished 8 and 9 hours behind and they aren't really penalized. There shouldn't have been an out to the main flight that night.

Re: The Amazing Race: All-Stars -- "Can't Make Fish Bite" -- 3/23/14
Thank goodness Luke is gone. I had no issues with Margie but Luke.....guy whines like a toddler.

Flight Time and Big Easy ran into bad air travel choices the season they first raced and it was their undoing, so I'm sure that they wanted to stick to the safest way, which was the direct flight.
I thought Margie and Luke should have at least gotten tickets on another flight and go to the gate to see if they could get on standby (instead of waiting at the counter). But good riddance anyway. |

The other flight (the connecting option) left before they could find out whether they got on as standby for the direct flight regardless. In other words, by the time it became confirmed they didn't make it on as standby all other flight options for that day were long gone.

I meant just getting the tickets for the next outbound flight, not the connector, to get to the terminal. What good is it to just stand at the counter?

what ticket could they have bought that let them wait in the boarding area?
I've sat in terminals for 7 hours overnight before. Unless they close down the airport altogether, why not take the chance, they could always return the next day if they don't get on the standby flight. |

Reality TV World: We didn't see you and Luke doing much in the leg as far as tasks went and such. Did you actually do the Detour and Roadblock tasks? And if so, how did they go? Margie O'Donnell: We didn't. We traveled to those places, but we were so far behind them, they couldn't keep all those people there. I guess that's why. But we didn't actually do the tasks. We got to those places, you know, we rode the bus and the train and all that stuff. We went the whole route but we did not do the tasks. So that was kind of disappointing. |
Re: The Amazing Race: All-Stars -- "Can't Make Fish Bite" -- 3/23/14
This has been an enjoyable season. All the annoying teams are being eliminated and the few that are left are struggling. That's the best I could have hoped for when this season started.

Margie and Luke broke the core air travel rule...never travel alone.
