"momily's interview" |
LAST EDITED ON 11-05-01 AT 10:25 PM (EST)Just watch a few of the tapes ( I have no life) Emily is giving an interview, the horny driver, she will be more devious etc. notice what she is wearing? red shirt, sunglasses top of her head, yellow backgrownd. episode 4, interview, "if it says to take a train, take a dam train" yellow background, red shirt, sunglasses. episode 5, "we suprised ourselves etc. etc: red shirt etc etc I had notice Mom;s hair, lighter and longer, had not notice Em attire. This interview was clearly done after the show was over. my question is, why? I know the only other person who they have done this with is Rob BUT they are showing Mom & Emily more and more. Just wondering why on earth, if as thought here, they go next week, whats the point? Unless team guido, does climb the rock or festers, esquire snorkle and still lose? could that fbe the twist?

1. "One Interview Fits All" |
I have noticed this for some time as well, I never posted anything because I just couldn't connect it with anything solid.As early as Episode 4 or 5 (I think it's 5). They have been using little clips from what seems to be the same inverview from several teams. One of them is Emily, the other 2 I noticed is Magritta and Drew. Emily is wearing the red T-Shirt, with the Sunglasses on top and the yellow wall background. Magritta is wearing the white singlet and some kinda structure with vines in the background. Drew is wearing a black shirt with some kinda mini shrine in the background. It's quite obvious that they's cutting and pasting certain quotes from the same interview and using them over a span of several episodes. Whether this indicates that these teams last longer or not, we don't really know. I can't seem to fit it in. I was trying to observe the background of both Drew and Magritta. Seems like it's taken from the Taj Khema hotel pit stop, or another asian place. I have no idea where the hell that yellow wall in Emily's background fits in. Oh well.

2. "RE: momily's interview" |
For those who watched the first 3 shows, it was obvious who was getting eliminated - the team that sat down as a pair in front of the camera in a relaxed, outdoor setting. This happened with Matt and Anna, the two teachers, and the two working moms. Then the producers caught on and started splicing in these interviews which were obviously filmed much later. Kelvin this started with episode 4, the one where David and Margaretta went out. They had shown the clips of Rob several times, and I was convinced that this meant Rob and Brennan were going out, but it turned out to be the gramps.My theory is that the producers realized they needed to have some more of these interviews to let people know what the contestants were thinking, so they did a "now you are in India, how did you feel about the market" type thing. I don't think this has any correlation to how long each team lasts. As the teams get eliminated, they need to give each more exposure. I am not a believer in the "story arc" angle (see that post for that discussion) so I don't think it means anything. It just makes it more interesting.

3. "Red Shirt" |
The one question I have about this interesting little potential spoil is: Has anyone notice Emily wearing the red shirt during the race? If not, then we can assume these interviews were done later on.This, coupled with Mom's longer, blonder hair, makes things really interesting!

I don't see how it makes things more interesting, it just means that the interview was done after the show.

7. "RE: Red Shirt" |
One thing I noticed at the end of Momily's non-elimination episode is that the finale was set up (i.e., doing the interviews with them while they were standing there in front of Phil) as if they had been eliminated. If memory serves me correctly, I don't think we got this from Lenny and Karyn during their non-elimination episode. Did we? And then they went out the very next week. Perhaps it would have been redundant to have two of those types of finale interviews two weeks in a row?

8. "RE: Red Shirt" |
Chan, I don't understand what you mean. Nancy and Emily did not have what you call a "finale interview", did they? I'm not sure if what you are saying is a finale interview is something like, we've had a lot of fun, we did our best. Obviously you can't have this until they actually get eliminated. If you're talking about the clip of Emily saying how she's going to play nasty, that is not a finale interview, that is just a comment interspersed in the show just like all of the others. Are you saying that because there was this clip the show can't end with two clips of Nancy/Emily two weeks in a row? Not sure I follow your logic... It doesn't necessarily mean that Nancy and Emily don't go out next week and have a "finale interview", it's just setting up for next week.

9. "RE: Red Shirt" |
LAST EDITED ON 11-06-01 AT 05:38 PM (EST)Okay, I must be tired. What I'm trying to say is that after Phil told Nancy and Emily that they were eliminated, the camera then cut to Nancy talking at great length about their strategy vs. the Guidos, how happy they were to still be in the game, etc. This isn't a finale/exit interview, but it was certainly set up to *look* like one. If memory serves me correctly, this did NOT happen with Lenny and Karyn (or if it did, it was very brief) during their non-elimination episode -- I remember they hugged each other, but no talk about strategy or being grateful to still be there, etc. -- and the very next week they were eliminated. (and we all remember that interview pretty well) So, I'm just wondering about the odds that CBS would have Momily do an interview like that in front of the finish line two episodes in a row...somehow, I'm beginning to think that isn't likely, which makes me think that they won't be eliminated next. That's all.

11. "RE: Red Shirt" |
LAST EDITED ON 11-07-01 AT 08:41 AM (EST)Chan, I watched the tape again, and I'd have to disagree with you on this one. I don't think anything was "set up" at all. The only thing set up was a camera to record their arrival, as with all the other teams. All I saw was Phil saying it was a non-elimination, so they were still in the race and they still had a chance to win. I'm sure that Momily is the production crew's sentimental favorite, so it was natural for Phil to want to say something nice. It certainly did not seem to me like he was "interviewing" them. Nancy's comments were not in response to any questions, they were just an expression of her feelings that very moment. I don't think you can make ANY conclusions from this, or even compare it to the ONE other time there was a non-elimination, with Lenny and Karyn. Who knows, maybe Karyn and Lenny had nothing interesting to say, which is why it wasn't shown. I think your point is that they would not interview Momily in this manner two weeks in a row, and I don't think that's an accurate statement. It doesn't mean that Momily is safe in 11/14, and judging from the evidence that the teams rock climb on 11/21 and the picture looks like Guido Bill, Momily could be in real trouble on 11/14.

Your take makes sense. That's the great thing about this show -- it's left to so much interpretation that we can all take different views on what will or might happen, and we can all be right/wrong. You did get my point, BTW (second time is a charm) and that's just my personal speculation, not a statement as fact.
