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."
I love the amazing race, but i was so pissed off and disappointed and angry about this amazing race. Uchenna and joyce were inferior racers and the bunching of the teams near the end was ridiculous. It made the everythign up to that point null and void. I don't know if i even want to watch the next race as this one was so disappointing in the end and makes me not want to bother with the next one if the results are going to make me as angry as this one has."
We've seen this before, when Chip and Kim, also inferior racers, won. They were in last place, but luck and fog put them in first. That is the iffiness of everythig coming down to one leg. Anyone can win one leg, and being able to win many previous legs - to dominate the other teams - (Jon & Kelly, Chris & Jon, Colin & Christie, Rob & Amber) means nothing when the final leg begins.
I started watching TAR in season 4, and was rooting for Jon & Kelly. The disappointment taught me then not to be emotionally invested in who wins, because it IS a TV show and who knows what happens off-camera to manipulate the drama factor. For me this season, a U/J win or a R/A win was preferrable to a R/K win, but acceptable.
I am relieved, given the lame reception R/A got when they arrived, that they didn't win, because the finish line scene would have been really, really wierd. Lots of stone faces, phony clapping - none of the "juice" we got with U/J last night.
