Agreed on the casting, this season the cast seems particularly boring.

Re: *** The Amazing Race: Season 21 ***

good lord, what a horrible cast. for me, the twins were the only eye candy, but they are so effing annoying. At this point, someone needs to shine, because i could care less who wins. also, i really hope the Chippendales ate some serious humble pie and tone it down after their near exit (my wife was in near tears toward the end of the show).

Re: *** The Amazing Race: Season 21 ***

I find myself losing interest in this show. I love the visiting different Countries/Culture aspect but I think the casting hasn't been that great the past couple of seasons.

Some may call this cruel, but I want them to bring back the shaved head ff this season with a twist. If you decide to pass on the task, you have to go to the back of the pack or you must get a tattoo. We need to see how bad the teams want it near the end of the race.

The past few seasons, they've done great job getting a few teams that stood out, but also got many teams that are real annoying(it doesn't help when last season,2 teams I hated, made it to final 4, and another team I hated just cause of how much they argued, won the thing)

I didn't watch it for a few seasons, but I started watching back during the season where they brought back people for a 2nd chance, and that season was great.

Finally caught up with the last episode. What a waste of time that Bull Riding challenge was! You didn't even have to beat the bull. You just rode the motorcycle and that was it. It wasn't a challenge or anything.

Yeah that was a pretty lame one.

Also, once again, a bad cab takes a team out.

Yep and the "Monster Truck Drivers" made the wrong decision and still hung around. It goes to show that the strongest teams don't always make it the farthest.

The thing that I hate about amazing race is how things like flights, mean NOTHING in situations like this.

You arrive 3-4 hours after someone, and only end up being probably 30 mins behind once the next challenge starts, because of the whole "not open until __am" stuff.


The team I don't really like, just had to be the one to get the express pass! They're annoying, and yell everything they say.

If taxi companies around the world ever watched the amazing race, half the taxi drivers would probably be fired right away. How do taxi drivers not even know their own city? Isn't one of the requirements to be a taxi driver, that you know the city you're driving in? And you're paying for the meter for all those minutes because the driver is stupid? It's not like the amazing race is just like "go to the park with the real big tree", they tell people to go to known landmarks and areas in a city too.

Taxis cost another team the game.

Amazing Race seems to be getting more and more about just whoever is luckiest with Taxis, over who is better in competitions.

Of the remaining teams, my faves in order:

1.James-Abba
2.Jaymes & James
3.Maybe Abbie & Ryan/Trey & Lexi

Re: *** The Amazing Race: Season 21 ***

Yeah, it seems time and time again a bad cab, taxi, escort, etc. costs a team their shot at winning. There are all ready a few examples this season, where weaker teams have moved on. It's always a team I like that's been getting elminated.. not the annoying twins or something.. lol.

Re: *** The Amazing Race: Season 21 ***

Production really needs to do a better job of making sure all the taxis know where they are going, it really doesn't seem fair that they say "take a taxi at a location" and you get a dumbnuts drive that doesn't know the city. Either pick more known places, or pick the drivers who will be waiting. Though I guess the controversy and irate contestants are more valuable than fairness.

the girls deserved to go simply so saying something like, how can you live in your country this long and not know english?

what?

Re: *** The Amazing Race: Season 21 ***

This is my first season in years, but I don't remember so many bad cabs and taxis costing teams. I used to watch this show when GSN would do the marathons. I still live at home with my parent's technically, and even though I'm not home that often (work, girlfriend, etc) I try to be home on Sunday nights to watch this with my mom. It's the only show we have ever both liked.

Re: *** The Amazing Race: Season 21 ***

It does seem especially bad right now, with the back to back taxis costing teams the race, but maybe it's just Indonesia? Maybe the Indonesia producer who set up all these spots did a horrible job of picking places well known enough?

These twins gotta go. Super annoying.
