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."

C'mon Let's Dish! What's really getting your goat? Since we can talk freely in "Bashers." : )For myself . . . Marie's two tone hair - FUGLY Marie's attitude and tone - UGLY The Baseball Wives - Wow! When did everyone start calling them "the Bunnies"? That's a little derogatory! ; P The Baseball Wives softporn hugs and kisses constantly throughout the Race - Did you see the happy cabby this last episode!? He LVOED it when they kissed on the lips! Maybe their husbands need to know what is going on? Jamal's hair product - is that Jeri Curl? Wifey! Hubby! Wifey! Hubby! Ugh - where is my barf bag? Okay - I hope I helped get you started! Let's do some Bashing! : )
Not that I have an opinion one way or another ;)

1. "RE: Boy! It's Awfully Quiet Over Here!" |
TAR has become too predictable. Every season I review the cast list and note the 75% of teams which are cannon fodder cast to be "interesting". The only suspense is the order in which the non-competitive teams are philiminated, though there are the occasional surprise exceptions like the Beekmans. This predictability probably contributed to the reality TV Emmy going to The Voice this past year instead of TAR.This season's teams:
Ally and Ashley. Stunt-casted eye candy team #1, with cute, bubbly personalities and zero chance of winning.
Brandon and Adam. Funny-looking guys with unknown potential.
Chester and Ephraim. Stunt-casted sports team, highly unlikely to win. and yes, I know they're already out
Hoskote and Naina. Possibly the most uncompetitive team ever cast for TAR, the obvious choice for first-eliminated.
Jason and Amy. Standard-issue dating couple, potential to be a good team and also with potential for bickering.
Leo and Jamal. Cast for their oversized personalities, based on past history they might stick around for a while because they're obnoxious.
Nicky and Kim. Stunt-casted eye candy team #2, two cute girls with zero chance of winning.
Rowan and Shane. Cast for their oversized personalities and back story, zero chance of winning.
Tim and Danny. Stunt-casted rednecks, unknown potential.
Tim and Marie. Stunt-casted villains, guaranteed to bicker endlessly with each other and other teams, also likely to be a competitive team. TAR is boring without someone to root against, no?
Travis and Nicole. Standard-issue married couple, likely to be a strong but drama-free team.

Interesting, thanks for replying. I guess I just take the teams we are given and just go with it. I wonder what your style of teams would do for the ratings? Again, not being argumentive (I always feel like I need to type that since voice inflection does not translate through the internets and we are all more or less strangers to each other) but your type of teams would be a little bit boring to me.
Funny the last two seasons the teams I had picked from the beginning to be the most competitive (the firemen last season and the football players this season) both made very early exits. I guess my point is that just because a team seems to be very competitive in the casting video, the race has a way of evening things out.

"Jamal's hair product - is that Jeri Curl?"I think he uses Soul Glo (think Coming to America). As far as the posts reqarding "stunt casting," I could not agree more. I have thoughtfully lamented, for several seasons now, that the competitors seem to consist primarily of a select group of individuals: 1) Former beauty queens;
2) Wannabe actors/Failed actors/Pathetic actors;
3) Higly connected attorneys, doctors, etc. who the producers seem to think that the public is interested in;
4) Cheap looking blondes/brunettes who are expected to become America's sweethearts. No longer is this show about everyday people competing for $1M while experiencing some fantastic destinations. Has Amazing Race jumped the shark? The Emmy voters certainly seem to think so. What's worse is that this problem has an easy remedy, but it is unlikely that the producers will fix it; or, when they do, it will be too late.

I about fell out of my chair when she said that, I was laughing so hard! What a horrific human being!!! And that was so funny when the doctors just said plain out, "We want the express pass" and she wouldn't give it to them. I hope Phil nails her when they get to the Pit Stop without the clue. And I hope Tim loves that job he gave a big plug to on the air - because I suspect he's just going right back to it!I also loved the Bearded Boys telling her to her face, "We don't need your fr'kin' express pass!" And then they came in #1!!! That was sweet : ) I do object to the time the Oklahoma boys took to show the Ice Girls how to drive a car (Jeez - prepare before the race people!). They were so nice to do that but I just want them to race and take care of themselves only! And then the girls thought they were so hot to do the task on their own - short memories! (And did anyone else notice the Garanimals were nowhere to be found when the wifeys needed them?) Can't wait until next week!
Not that I have an opinion one way or another ;)
