PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

True, but it was just Matt walking around. If it were the speed bump, they would have been working together, and I bet Gary knows what a candalabra is.

Not finding the clue box at the Tower took longer than the speed bump. this whole leg was designed so that whoever came in last at the hay bales could get back into the race. The ferry bunch and an easy speed bump could have made it easy for Gary & Matt to keep up but the Tower misread and bad cab driver did them in.

Especially after the attitudes of the other racers, these two guys were just a pleasure to watch. Last night was definitely not one of their finer moments, but I always appreciate when someone shows a little appreciation for where they find themselves (or in the case of the sauna bus, who they find themselves with!

I have no problem with it. It was an extra task to do. They had to leave the location, do the task, and come back. They had to find the place, find the right tea and serve it. If I were to complain about any speed bump, I would complain about Jeff & Jordan's, and I didn't even complain about that.We've had teams wash their hair and serve Holy water. Perhaps they should make the teams do both detour tasks if they want to give them something else to do.  Samboobree, brought to life by Arkie

LAST EDITED ON 04-05-10 AT 03:40 PM (EST)And serve soup and sit in a sauna! What was J&J's task? I don't even remember it, though I have no doubt it was lame. Doing both detours is a bit harsh and would almost guarantee an elimination. (which is why I'm not a big fan of the U-turn -- I liked the old 30-minute wait better, which wasn't quite the deathblow) If I recall correctly, Gary & Matt are the only team to ever be eliminated on the leg in which they had to complete a speed bump (and that wasn't so much because of the speed bump). And no team has ever survived a U-turn. How about this as a non-elimination punishment? The team has to race the next leg in silence. No talking to other teams, locals or even each other except to perform absolute necessary tasks: reading clues, deciding which detour to do and who's going to do the roadblock, buying plane tickets, giving a cab driver a location, etc.

Oh, I hated that too -- especially in poorer countries. The speed bump was a step in the right direction.

I would enjoy if the Speed Bump involved shooting a gun and they can't get it right. I would enjoy it but sadly not be surprised.
