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."

"What happened with the boats" |
I was very surprised when one of the boat drivers tried to take the Geghan family on a detour to pick someone else up. This wasn't a case of a contestant picking a bad cab driver. Weren't the boats and boat drivers things that the producers of the show set up for the contestants. Shouldn't they know what to do and where to go. If the producers were providing the mode of transportation for the contestants and the person that they hired makes a mistake, the contestant shouldn't be held responsible.

Yes, we wondered the same thing. We figure they were obviously hired to be the drivers. So what/who were they going after. Maybe a good question for the Ghagan family when they get booted.

LAST EDITED ON 10-27-05 AT 10:50 PM (EST)Aside from a simple misunderstanding, it is possible that the drivers were hired but were not told this was for a race. There always is a driver who thinks s/he can make a few extra bucks on the side even while hired to do a particular job. We have already seen taxi cab drivers who take too long route to a destination that they knew exactly where to go. And bus drivers who needed to be paid extra not to stop to pick up more passengers.

That may be true, but the Geghan family should not suffer because the producers fo the show fail to adequately tell the drivers what they are supposed to do.

No, they should not. But what is not clear is wether the producers did not tell the drivers enough or if there was an honest mistake in transalation where the producers thought the drivers would only carry the racers then I can not blame them.
