Crazy to see

Spoiler

Tims

win Amazing Race Canada. Both USA and Canada season in 2013 have been great. Hopefully this season of Amazing Race continues that trend!

Really pleased for them. I would have been happy to see Jody/Cory or Jet/Dave win. Anyone except the two girls. They were so annoying.

Really enjoyed TAR Canada. Seemed so cool that they filmed one leg only about 15 minutes away from house. Just cool!

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

I almost forgot that this show started back up tonight. I haven't checked out any of this season's contestants at all, so I'm going into the show with no expectations. Hopefully this ends up being a good season.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

First episode was ok, nothing really big happened at all, just seemed to be a generic episode.

Once teams start getting eliminated and the show has more time to focus on specific teams, then it'll be better.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Most of these teams seem annoying. Hope the Afghans go home soon.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

The 'Exes" that came in first place are annoying to me. Like Majingir said, this was a run of the mill episode where barely anything of any significance happened. Looking forward to next week after seeing the preview.

Pinky and The Brain BURN! Afghanimals get a +1 in likability.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Season hasn't been anything special so far. On positive side, it hasn't been horrible either.

And so strange that one of the racers is friends with the husband of the baseball wives. Don't think anything like that has happened before where people with no prior relation coming into a game like this, have a connection like that.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Not really feeling the Afghans or the chick with the pink in her hair. Other than that, nobody has really rubbed me the wrong way yet. The two eliminations so far seemed liked dead weight, so no loss there. I'll just have to keep watching so see who I start pulling for. The ex football players seem alright.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

The team that got eliminated were very annoying. Especially the idiot begging the shoe shine guy to stay with him. Glad they are gone.

Yeah, they were very annoying. The way he was begging that guy was a pitiful display.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Sucks to see my fave team eliminated already, especially cause of HORRIBLE planes.

Don't think Amazing Race has ever had anyone encounter as many problems with flights in a single trip.

And has anyone else ever been eliminated

Spoiler

at an airport lol. I know another team in a season several years ago was eliminated at a challenge(cause they were the last team and couldn't complete it awhile after the final team checked in) but don't think a team got eliminated as early as the football guys did

Not really much likable teams this season. The girl on the exes team and the one on the dating team are annoying and bossy. Only 3 teams left that I like(team that came in 1st today,the guys with the beards,and the baseball wives)

Amazing Race Canada, while a few legs shorter, was way better than this version of amazing race.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

I'm glad they were eliminated. They really shouldn't have been on the show to begin with unless they were running for a charity.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

LOL moment for me was during the Slings & Arrows Roadblock. One of the teams took forever (I think it was Tim & Danny). The guy giving them the next clue was mocking them for taking so long. He said something along the lines of, "If you were in battle, you would of been dead!"

I've only watched Amazing Race for the past few seasons, but I think they've had some athletes on every one. The former NHL team that won the whole thing, and then Marcus Pollard who used to play for my Colts. I don't recall if either of them played for a charity or not though.

Too bad they got eliminated tonight, they seemed like cool dudes.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Amazing Race and Survivor have both had athletes in past few years now.

While they don't need the money, I think that it's good we have former athletes in the game. Cause you know they're in good shape, they do love the game, they applied for the show(and not recruited as many people often are), they're competitive, they're in the game to win(and not just for the experience).

Unlike many others who apply that only do so cause it's a chance to win money(they know nothing about the game,but want the money) or to get famous(the amount of former(non big name) contestants on Survivor,Big Brother you see trying to stay relevant by appearing at all sorts of random viewing parties/events is just sad). Big Brother especially is famous for having people with almost no knowledge of the game except for the most recent season(cause BB makes everyone watch the most recent season before they enter the house)
