Meteornotes Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 OK, I'll keep it spoiler free for our west coast viewers, but the two hour premiere of the new season of Amazing Race was on tonight, and it was damn entertaining. There are some really amusing teams in the race this time, and the show is up to its usual standard of comedy. I don't like most reality shows but this one amuses me to no end. Who else is watching? dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 2 HOURS!!!! Damn, forgot to check my local listings. Was it 8 - 10 or 9 - 11??? I only have my VCR taping from 9 - 10. Gregg "I need TIVO or DVR already" C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 It started out really well...but it's kind of dragging now. I really like it better when they're down to fewer teams. At least none of the teams seem as obnoxious as last season. Although some of them seem REALLY stupid. Anyone else notice the casting for next season is for 'families' of 4!?!? I'm so mad that they're filming in June/July...stupid already having plane tickets and plans! I bet that we could get chosen with my parents! Oh well, kiddies, here's your chance! You have to be 8 years old, but they're looking for teams of 4 in any kind of family situation! Elissa "damn, that's going to be a really annoying season to watch!"

RCTfan Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 I LOVE Amazing Race! The first episode was great. Quite amusing. I found myself disliking Rob and Amber on Survivor, but I like them here. Heh. The team that got eliminated, I couldn't wait for them to, so its convient that it was first! I think the family season would be fun. Watching families fall apart over money. I LOVE IT. Genius. Lets see, we'll get my mom, dad, sister, and myself. Right. My mom will barely make the 30 minute trek to PKD on 95, let alone drive in a foreign country!

Sir Clinksalot Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 Watched the first hour, it was great. Pissed I only taped until 10pm. So who got eliminated??? If I had to guess I would say the Old Folks or the Married Couple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 No, it was the hillbillies! And I'm so disappointed, because they seemed like they were going to be funny. I hate Rob & Amber. They should never have been allowed to be on. Isn't there a rule that you can't enter contests after winning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreativeForce Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 Rob and Amber need to go away next week. They are way too smug and seem like they don't really care about playing the game. If it hadn't been for finding that one guy in Peru to help them out, I think they would have been eliminated. Here's hoping no one else in the world recognizes them and helps them out, they've gotten enought of a free ride as it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 Damn ... I liked the Hillbillies. They were funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneygurlz2s Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 You know, I am a HUGE Survivor fan, and hadn't gotten into AR, even though I had heard it was as entertaining as Survivor. Well, because of Rob and Amber, and the fact that the mother/son team is from here in the Greater Cincy area (Hamilton, Ohio) I decided to watch. I LOVE it, and so did my six year old. I can see I am going to have another "must see" show to watch! Shari "The gay guys are hillarious" Shoufler PS We have met Rob and Amber and they are actually quite nice!

RCTfan Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Yeah, the gay guys were hilarious. He was like "Hola" or something simple and the other was like "Ohhh Lynn (or the other) you are so international!" Heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunder001 Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 The only thing about this show is that here in the land down under, we are still on last season. I have a hard enough time not getting onto the net just to see what is going to happen next week as they left us hanging with Bolo and his wife stuck at a train station in last place. Some-one please tell me that Johnathon gets put in his place for the way he treats his wife. If I was in the race and saw the way that he treated her, I think I would have to step in and say my peace, in my own way of course. I will have to keep an eye out to see if the show ever has an international series so that people from other countries can go. I would make sure to enter that one as it would be one hell of a ride. Enjoy all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 He's now claiming it was more or less an act, and he was encouraged by the producers to be like that. Jonathan and Victoria went on "The Dr. Phil Show" for cunseling afterward. He was such an ass, but apparently it was pretty much an act since I've heard them interviewed on the radio and they're pretty normal. Loved "the Happy Boys" (as the hillbillies kept calling the gay boys). They are going to be a trip this whole season. Big contrast to Chip and Reichen...

deguy123 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I love the amazing race...I watched the first 2 then stopped and started up when Chip and Richen(spelling)won..(thank god they won because they really put the gay sterotype to rest) and have been watching ever since. This on is pretty good but I don't see why everyone got made at Rob last week...HELLO... it's 1 million dollars, those people didn't go on to make friends...

disneygurlz2s Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Am I the only one who thinks the POW and the Beauty Queen are the most annoying? I can't see him as a soldier... for God's sake it took them two trips to move those books....

Homey G. Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I actually know Kelly. We grew up together although I'm several years older than her. She's a really sweet girl in person, but she's a much different person after she won Miss South Carolina. I don't know this guy she's on the show with now. When we were in my friend Drew's wedding, she was dating a different guy. Actually there's a picture of the two of us from that wedding (she was the bridesmaid I was paired up with). Found it. My dad took the picture and he's not too keen with his digital camera as I'm barely in the shot at all, so it's not a great picture, but here ya go : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 ^ Wow, you're so famous...can I please have your autograph?? Shari, I totally agree with you, I find that couple so annoying! She doesn't seem to be contributing much and the way he works no wonder he was taken so easily as a POW!!!

coasterfreak11 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 ^ Yeah. I thought they were going to lose that week for awhile. I personally don't want Robb and Amber to win. They already won a million dollars, other people need it more than them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I either want Susan & Patrick or Debbie & Bianca to win. They all seem like nice, honest people who you want to root for. I'm glad The Brothers weren't eliminated. They're likable, unlike Rob & Amber, and interesting unlike the POW and Beauty Queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 For me the problem with the show is that I always want the people who play the best to win, and I have yet to really see that happen! People always seem to 'get lucky' and that's what pisses me off! If you're smart enough to get like an 8 hour lead and because one of the challenges takes place only from 8am - 4pm...ugh, that really just gets to me!

Homey G. Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Whatever. The show is over for me regardless of WHO I know because the two hot chicks are gone. Brian, who sees the 18-30 male demographic plummeting after this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneygurlz2s Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Eh, not finding those brothers all that interesting.... Personally, my favorites are the old couple, the gay couple and the "love to hate them" reality tv couple (aka Boston Rob and Am-buh).

GAcoaster Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 I won't give anything away for everyone on the west coast, but tonight had some great moments, and the grossest challenge I've seen them do. I would have failed that challenge miserably! lackeye: (BTW-We need a nausea emoticon!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaneymon Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Hello just a note that the amazing race dosent start here till the 29th of march so i will post on this from then onwards Zane "Can't wait" Williams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Great episode tonight! I LOVE Rob & Amber!!! They are playing the game really smart...and I'm sick of listening to all the other teams badmouthing them! Elissa "buh bye lesbians!"

Sir Clinksalot Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 ^ I agree. They are playing the game really well. They are so manipulative. The Mom/Son team and the Lesbo's were so retarded. I just hope they get into more "Stunt" stuff soon. It's always great when people have reservations about things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
