The Amazing Race: All-Stars

[Russ Smith]

I like Team Cha-Cha-Cha. They just seem like awesome people.

I also like Drew and Kevin, not sure why. And Joyce and Uchenna.

Uchenna and Joyce are the only former winners to get on the all star show correct?

Yup

I'm glad Kevin and Drew are gone. Drew was entirely too whiny--plus he looked sick, does he have something wrong with him?

Now if the midget and her snotty cousin left and took the Hillbillies with them all would be good.

Yeah he said he was taking his medicine at one point and I was wondering
if they were going to explain why. He seemed to be weak all the time, no way he was going to make it through on a show like that.

I also thought it was surprising that he didn't complain at the end that everyone was speeding, they were wrong of course they misunderstood the rules, but he kept repeating it in the car so it was surprising he didn't say something to Phil? Maybe he did but they edited it out to save embarassment after he started walking away before they even knew they were eliminated?

Rob and Amber continue to impress. Was it me or did they "imply" that a couple of the teams skipped finishing the last roadblock? It was weird but all of a sudden 2 teams were taking off and I thought they were telling us they hadn't finished? Never came up again so I must have must misinterpreted it.

 

[Dback Jon]

Extremely glad that Drew and Kevin are gone.
Way to whiny.

I normally like Charla and Mirna, but they are getting on my nerves as well.


I thought the barbies would have gotten a penalty for not stopping/getting the map, but maybe they didn't speed. They did get lost, though.

Romber and Team Cha-cha-cha seem to be head and shoulders above the rest of the pack as far as race smarts.

I would like to have seen more "All-Star" teams in the race. Don't you think All-Stars should be teams that finished first or second in their respective season? There have been 10 season, so you have up to 20 potential teams. How much more exciting would it be with:

BJ & Tyler (The Hippies ), season 9 winners
Tyler and Jim (recovering drug addicts), season 10 winners
Rob & Kimberly, season 10 2nd
Eric & Jeremy, season 9 2nd
Freddy & Kendra, season 6 winners
etc.

I agree the following were good choices:

Dustin & Kandice (The Beauty Queens), season 10 4th
Rob & Amber, season 7 2nd
Uchenna and Joyce, season 7 winners


But, some of the other choices don't make sense to me.

Teri and Ian finished second, so they would be in your list as well.

It is not all about how they finished - but fan reaction, etc. Plus, I am sure that a number of the teams would not want to race again. Chip and Reichen won season 1, but since they don't speak to each other anymore, it would be hard for them to race.

Then open it up to first through fourth. I understand your point because not everybody would want to do it again, but when you see teams like Kentucky racing, I'm wondering if Rob & Amber convinced the network to sand bag the show so they would win since they didn't win the first time.

Plus, they seem to do much better in the "All Star" shows, if you know what I mean.

BJ & Tyler (The Hippies ), season 9 winners

LOVE those guys! Maybe they were offered and declined to give others a chance to win?

Tyler and Jim (recovering drug addicts), season 10 winners
Eric & Jeremy, season 9 2nd

Hubba, hubba! I wouldn't mind seeing those teams again.

But, I think Jon is right. It's more about popularity than finish and who actually wanted to run again. I think it's cool that they got the one team with the hot chick and hot guy who met on the race and actually didn't race together as a team the first time around.

Team Cha-cha-cha is still my fav!!!! Mirna and Charla can go at any freaking time now.

 

[Russ Smith]

I'm just mad that the blond Kris didn't come back for this season.

Rob and amber must have free trips for the next 10 years, they really are good at this stuff.

 

[MadCardDisease]

We need Ian to turn A-hole again and spice this up a little bit.

Maybe after watching himself on his first race he realized what a jerk he was.

 

[Zeno]

Good riddance to the Hillbillies. Hopefully Charla and Mirna are next.

I was hoping that Charla and Mirna would lose until I saw the pit stop. Figured I had to cheer for them so Charla could get a midget **********.

That was classic having a little person there at the end.

Rob and Amber are just dominant.

 

[jenna2891]

ugh. my dvr went haywire and didn't record this.

I thought the Beauty Queens blew it...it turned out not to cost them anything but time since the other teams were so slow.

Rob and Amber just play the game so well, its too bad Rob is such a prick.

 

[Russ Smith]

Like others I can't wait for Mirna and Shmirna to go. They get into a beef with someone every week, and watching her in the fish tank was really hard to take.

Best line of the night was the "use your boobs" comment to the one blond girl by her partner(to hold the fish in the container).

 

[Mike Olbinski]

This week sucked...ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh....

 

[Jersey Girl]

This week sucked...ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh....

I have been waiting for this post.

Myrna and Charla are annoying.

 

[Mrh182]

This week sucked...ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh....

Spoiler

Without Romber, I don't even know if it's worth watching, haha.

They were my favorite... and I hate the duo of... cousins... so much.

 

[jenna2891]

this would have been a good time for a non-elimination leg. i was shocked when it turned out it wasn't.

I'm right there with you.

 

[Jersey Girl]

So was I. I thought for sure the race was due for a non-elimination round.

I'll miss the team that was eliminated tonight. They definitely added a lot to the show.

 

[Angel]

They were definitely my favorite, though I like the beauty queens too. Guido One is going to lend Beauty Queen Two his nail buffer during the pit stop? Classic.

What was up with Uchenna and Joyce high fiving the cousins after they had just been laughing with everyone else at them because of Amber's "lie" anyway? Don't get me wrong, I like Uchenna and Joyce (during their season the woman SHAVED her head to get a fast forward--the toughest thing I ever saw anyone do on the race) but is seemed more twofaced than lying about finding the clue.

Could be I just don’t like the cousins that much, they act like everyone needs to stop racing as they are coming by which is bad enough but they whine while the do it. Out of the rest I want them gone badly. Everyone lese is sort of likeable in their own way; I’m even enjoying Teri and Eye-on this time.
