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."

"Episode 5 Vote Time" |
All right, folks... start your engines ... grab your vidcaps... polish up your theories ... it's time to pick this week's loser. Here's what to do:1) Put the name of the team as the subject of your message (or the names of the team members). 2) Put any analysis or additional commentary/predictions in the body of your message. 3) Reply ONLY to this message, not someone else's comments. 4) This is not a discussion thread... if you want to respond to something you read, do it on another thread in the forum (or start a new one). Good Luck!

Part instinct and part wishful thinking, but I'm betting that Lenny will soon be able to slow down and take in the sights at his own pace. Probably without Karyn who will dump his worthless ass.

L&K haven't been able to get their act together, and they haven't got a coalition going with folks who would help them along to keep them around, which are both recipes for diasaster.I think P&A got lost, but not hopelessly lost...the producers have not been that obvious so far. They both overreact to things, so I think they would get in a panic and overdramatize when the situation isn't as dire as they expect. The previews have misdirected before. Two episodes ago, I was expecting the grandparents to miss the train and be hopelessly behind, but they ended up in the middle of the pack even though they took a later train due to the cab shortcut. I started another thread on why the P&A promo this week leads me to believe they don't leave just yet.

So far the teams that have been "hinted at" in the promos are always safe. The two teams that have been "hinted at" are Paul and Amie and Rob and Brennan.I'm going to say Paul and Amie are safe because of all the screen time they are getting--and they even got a new CBS Promo of them this week. Rob and Brennan are safe because we saw a future clip of them in some city saying something like "They didn't say we couldn't lie to one of the other teams." Team Guido and the Separated couple seem like they have their act together so I'd say that leaves. The Frat Boys seem confused at times but they seem like they have a good head on their shoulders too. That leaves Nancy and Emily and Lenny and Karyn. Either way someone is going to be "Dis-A-Point-Ed". Will be it be Karyn? Or the straight male viewing audience? It's mostly a guess, but I'm going with the latter.

They have been at the bottom of the heap for most of the race. I just don't see them picking up speed unless they use the FF this time. In that case I see Paul & Amie leaving.

12. "Paul/Amie" |
Per our opening theme analysis (http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID20/25.shtml ), Frank/Margarita and Drew/Kevin are still safe this week.I think the shot of Team Guido ( http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID20/25.shtml#12 ) is from this week's stop, and everyone else's opening theme scenes also ready seem to have passed. Therefore only Frank/Margarita and Drew/Kevin are off this week's possible boot list. Having correctly picked The Gramps last week, the pressure is on me to begin a bit of a run here... so after carefully pulling names from a hat I'm going to go with Paul/Amie. OK, I'm lying, no hat is really involved, I'm just going to go with the following. Folks are saying the previews are showing Paul/Amie getting lost (I'll confuse, I haven't been watching much CBS and must have missed them) and we have chaos' post from a couple of weeks ago: http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID20/38.shtml#4 How do I know? Entertainment Weekly from the week of September 7th did a rather large Amazing Race article. Other events in Episode 4 include a visit to the Sahara Desert, and apparently one team, and the crew with it, gets very, very lost. The article goes on to say, and I quote, that the day ends in "tearshed and a little bit of controversy."
Tears?? Amie??? I could never believe that -- how UNLIKELY!!! -SB

Is the preview a red herring, in which they say that 'they better hurry or they've lost?' It could be...but I'm sticking with my guess as to who will go based on face time, and we just haven't seen enough of Rob and Brennan to care very much for either of them. All other teams have gotten a substantial amount of face time thus far.

The Amazing Race producers have not always shown the most care in their editing of the show... so it is logical to assume that they could accidentally telegraph a couple's exit in a preview.

Based on the same Entertainment Weekly article about tonight's episode resulting in tears and controversy...I expect Lenny to do the crying.

I don't think it's going to matter how her name is spelled after this week. Each couple booted so far seem to me to have gotten relatively less face time than the teams that continue on.For instance in episode 1, I had completely forgotten about the red headed couple untill they showed up in the village dead last. The only one's that I thought got less face time than the red heads were the teachers... gone in episode 2. The mom's only face time was using the fast forward. I had completely forgotten THERE EVEN WAS a moms team... gone in episode 3. The grandparents seemed to me to be a great angle for the producers to show, and I thought if I had produced the show they would be getting alot more screen time... gone in episode 4. Of those remaining, I think Lenny/Karyn have gotten the least screen time.
