Here's a rare specimen: the mostly-happy episode.

!Clap! I always enjoy the All Night Long legs: they take out all Hours Of Operation bunch points, force the teams to continue racing as they become increasingly punchy from sleep deprivation, and generally bring on the entertainment in so many ways. To have one taking place under sunlight might have been the best idea Production's had in the last few seasons. Whoever came up with this one needs a bonus. Or possibly a promotion.

Clap Superlegs can be more than a little annoying, but consider just where this one was placed. 'It's three in the morning -- and keep going.' (Incidentally, who wants to place odds on Marie breaking something by the end of the leg?)

Slap And then we had a seven-minute Ford commercial.

Clap Double-edged Detour with no simple choice -- although the hammering looked to be the more difficult in the end. (Was anyone else wondering if those teams missed a wheelbarrow station somewhere?)

Mini-Slap And right after all the lovely high definition images of insect bits and infected skin sores on Wednesday? Fish heads. Roly-poly fish heads. No more appetite, yum.

Clap But playing the song over the credits? Partial redemption.

No Hand Movement I understand the fear element and body shock involved with the Roadblock -- but ultimately, it came down to 'swing back and forth a little, then swim a few feet before warming up again'. The only reasons this isn't a Slap are providing the right equipment for the dip and the brief amusement from those who had trouble with the release.

Clap Now that's a Pit Stop -- or in this case, wasn't.
