1. Romber - Two weeks in a row!!!!! I love it. And they are starting, for the very first time, to be edited in a way that is more like their real personas. I'm amazed. Amber's assertiveness, a surprise to most everyone, is what I've always seen IRL. And Rob's pride in her abilities was just adorable. 2. Oswald & Danny - Too adorable for words. I want to go out for a night on the town with them. They are the quote machines! And racing really, really well. Level headed and just getting it done. Love it.
3. Dustin and Kandice - I can't believe I have them this high, because I really am not a fan. But they overcame some things (some beyond their control and some just not good decisions) and they did try to be semi-nice to the crazed nut case and her even more delusional sidekick (Mirna, Schmerna, they're interchangeable at this point in the who should die first and most painfully contest). Personally, I'd have punched both those creatures right in the head.
4. Joe & Bill - I still haven't gotten over my hate for them, but they've been pretty quiet so far. So I'm cutting them a break for now. But I'm watching the Guidos with a jaundiced eye. I don't trust them.
5. Eric & Danielle - He's definitely not the brightest bulb in the box. But they seem to get along well and they are decent at tasks that don't take brains. LOL! I actually think they're kinda cute together. But they're middle of the packers. And, eventually, the middle becomes the end.
6. Teri & Ian - I still don't remember these people. I'm trying, but I just don't. They seem okay to me. Not brilliant, will never win. But okay.
7. Uchenna & Joyce - Well, he's still a pig and she still isn't as good as she thinks she is. What a surprise. Gawd, please don't let anyone fix the game for these two again. I really can't stand either one of them.
8. David and Mary - Those poor hillbillies. I again question what they are doing on this show. Mary, surprisingly, was an ace at the puzzle. But too stupid to figure out that you have to put the tire on correctly. They are truly out of their league, but at least they are not hateful.
9. Charla & Mirna - The hateful label goes to these two. What can I say about them? Stupid. Entitled. Bitter. Mean. Delusional. Eardrum piercing. Ignorant. Incompetent. Irritating. Angry. I could do this all day. They cannot leave fast enough. I remember detesting them the first time around. But I had no idea the depth of my hatred for them. Now I do.
Philiminated: Kevin and Drew - I never thought I'd be happy to see the last of the Festers. There's been an interesting evolution with these two. If I hadn't seen them in the first one, I'd never have understood the affection people have had for them all this time based on how whiny they've been and what bad sports they've shown themselves to be. Good riddance!
