I just found this quote taken from the TAR website:

'Brian is painfully embarrassed by his family and is convinced he’s the only sane one in the bunch.'

Before the series started, I would have put that down to his being sixteen, which is the age when everyone's family is painfully embarrassing and you're the only sane one in the bunch. Now...

But what if she was an Italian-American Jew? 'cause with her PhD in guilt infliction, she should get a honorary induction into the religion. Either that or we'll have to declare her Catholic. Or, even better yet, deceased.

I couldn't stand the first two episodes of the other groups calling the Paolos 'Team Jersey'. This is an insult to Jerseyans everywhere. If this was an NJ family, Trauma Paolo would have hit her in the face with a sharp object by now. Several times. And no one would have pressed charges, because all the potential arresting officers would be standing in line behind him and waiting their turn.

'Dragocity'. Why does that word make me picture some sort of fantasy computer game monster? 'It's my hoard! Do you know how much I had to sacrifice to get this hoard? All those centuries of giving everything I had for you, my health, my breath, my ability to know when to shut up...'

...Throw Mamma From the Plane Roadblock, huh?

My Dad is 72 and he could run circles around Wally who is only 51, and still have enough energy to kick his butt carrying soldiers.

Nice to see you Ginger!

I was surprised that Wally whimpered during the flight simulation thingee. After all, he's used receiving about a million Gs of pressure on a constant basis. And at least it was quiet in there.

I still have a hard time imagining this family making the determination to do an Amazing Race.
