Please keep all sigpic-free discussion of tonight's two-hour leg (which may start within two hours of the scheduled time) on this thread until the West Coast gets to hear one of the most dreaded statements the series can make. Namely:

'Look! Up on the screen! Slower than a network executive having an idea! More pointless than an excuse for raising gas prices! Able to negate any lead with a single whip-out of a clue! It's Suuuuuuuperleg! Yes, it's Superleg, stupid visitor from previous seasons, which using its stupid reasoning of Evening Out The Pack, Making The First Half Moot, and Giving Phil Something To Do, fights a never-ending battle for viewer aggravation, Racer frustration, and series destruction!'

And if you think you've seen never-ending before, just wait until they open the Roadblock. 'Who's up for listening to eight hours of Tiny Bubbles? For some strange reason, that sounds sort of familiar...'

Superlegs. Wake me up around midnight for the second half.

Desperate Attention Hos.

"SuperLeg" ... is that Eric's latest pet name for a body part of Dani's?

Well... as long as it isn't a To Be Continued until next week, I'm ok with a SuperLeg tonight.

D&K - 8:00 + :05
E&D - 3:15 + 7:15

Total difference - first to last: 14:41

Actually less than I thought, but still pretty significant.

Eric just had to explain to Dani that Warsaw is in Poland.

Charla and Mirna, Danny and Oswald have been at the travel agency for 7 hours. Eric and Danielle just arrived.

Dustin and Kandice got out of there after four or so hours, taking off at 12:30pm. Eric and Dani didn't even start racing until 3:15pm.

Uchenna and Joyce are connecting through Frankfurt and are the second team in the air.

Poor Danny and Oswald. I hope for their sake piano strings aren't expensive.

I also thing that all teams shouldn't be allowed to do the same task; it's boring.

I think this is a first in TAR history, or at least for editing purposes. The only similar instance was when they showed the Guidos in TAR1 doing some of the tasks in Alaska when the other teams had already left for the final destination city.

It's kinda weird to have only the 1st, 5th, and 6th place teams running around.

Guidos are last to check in and have been marked for elimination since it's a non-elim leg.

The double episode makes some sense so they could keep the continuity of starting the next leg when people hadn't finished the previous leg.

E&G are last and marked for removal. With D&K, D&O and E&J already starting the next leg there is no way they can make first place with a *MAJOR* transportation SNAFU.

However, getting that 30 minute lead on E&D may not be impossible.

Instead of waiting, could D/K find another way to Auschwitz and incur the penalty? Or might Hours of Operation play into it?

It's effectively a Yield for the BQs (second season in a row they've had a de facto Yield). Hence my question above, although it's probably better to have teams about you.

Very disappointed with one prize. You tell me that CBS or Travelocity can't pony up for a second 1st place prize. Look at it this way...

With the mega bunch point and the four hours in between busses, two things would happen: (1) Two of the teams on the first bus would pair up at the intersection, giving them a four hour lead and PLENTY of time to complete the Fast Forward, and (2) One of the teams on the first bus would have to wait four hours.

Now you have taken two teams and basically force them to the Pit Stop together. Granted, they were separated upon completion of the FF, but really, they were still together because there was no real need to beat any other teams (all four hours-plus behind).

Because of the way BVM and company manufactured the first two team's arrival at the Pit Stop, they should have known a tie would be likely, and should have had two prizes ready.

"RE: This oughta be interesting...."
Posted by donracefan on 04-01-07 at 10:57 PM
I thought that too. These last 2 legs have been very contrived. I liked the concept of the intersection but TAR has badly mishandled it. If a team is marked for elimination, why make them pair up with someone. That just guarantees (for all intents and purposes) that they are going to be finishing within 30 minutes of at least the team they are paired with. Therefore, there is no need for them to even race because they will not finish 30 minutes ahead without something really going wrong for the team they are paired with. Don't get me wrong, I don't have any opinion of the Guidos one way or another. They are much easier to tolerate than they were in their first season or than C/M or E/D in this race but I wasn't pulling either way but it made it not suspenseful at all. They couldn't even do an editing trick to make it seem suspenseful.

Favorite line of the night: Upon hearing a loud screeching noise Joe or bill says: that must be Mirna trying to start a car. How can she still not know how to drive stick? Edited to add: Second favorite line: The Guidos are talking about how they have to hurry so they aren't Philamated and says the one thing we know: Mirna can't drive worth a damn...

And - AGAIN - Schmirna can't understand why shrieking insults and refusing to pay doesn't inspire people to help them.

(PLEASE GET THEM OFF MY TV!!!!!!)

Two taxi driver tell Team Shorty to basically buzz-off after they give the drivers attitude and say they don't have enough money to pay them. They whine and ask the drivers to have sympathy for a human being (human...where...??) but the driver storms off.

I think the Guidos' penalty, and not their arrival, will get them eliminated.

Poor Charla, peeps are laughing at them.

Bq's are #3 at the pitstop.

Mirna, SHUT UP!!

Will they get a penalty if Mirna is helping guide the horse?

(I wish)

Oh. apparently not.

Guidos are starting to look exta crispy, because the Roadblock leads straight to the Pit Stop location...... and they're still neck and neck with Mixed Tag......

That was a nice hop towards the pit stop mat by Bill, a la The Tin Woodman right out of the Wizard of Oz.

The horse is doing exactly what he's been trained to do. She's holding the end of the reins and lungeing him.

"Horsie, I have sausage." Offering the horse sausage? Huh? Did she hide some rather than eat it? And, what makes her think a horse would want it?

"RE: TAR-Stars Episodes #7/8 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread"
Posted by tamarama on 04-01-07 at 08:47 PM
Yeah, I thought horses were veggies --

Would they eat meat? Especially seasoned meat?

"RE: TAR-Stars Episodes #7/8 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread"
Posted by mysticwolf on 04-01-07 at 08:55 PM
Um. No. Horses do not eat meat. Seasoned, or otherwise. (Although chomping on a body part isn't out of the question, they don't actually eat it. )

"That episode "
Posted by moonbaby on 04-01-07 at 09:09 PM
was longer than a two foot sausage. Ya know, I didn't mind the superleg-I was relieved it wasn't a TBC. Motrin all around! Two hours of Mirna yelling was bound to cause a headache.

I love the 2 hour shows! First off, let me say I was not impressed with the Polish people, most of them came across as being rude. The time difference between the teams is smaller now, but these two legs much have been killing Phil and production...16 hours! Yikes. Charla and Mirna continue to whine their way through everything. I am not a huge fan of these intersections, they seem kind of useless.

>>I was not impressed with the Polish people, most of them came across as being rude.<<

I'm going to give the Poles a pass on this one. The sight & sound of Chmirna shrieking "immigrant" English at passersby would not inspire me to help them.

We didn't see any of the other teams having troubles.
