Yeah they already wrapped up leg 5 filming.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Such BS. Oh the doctor couldn't do an easy task and basically needed the other team to do it for her.

that should cost them something ... you shouldn't be allowed to get help from other teams other than looking over at them

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

You can get help from other teams whenever you want. The rules have always been like that on Amazing Race. Just like when some teams work together getting flights or finding location to next clue and stuff.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

I used to like Travis and Nicole until the last episode. They claim to want to run an honest race, without, lying, cheating and stealing. Well isn't trying to look at someone else's task and copy it cheating?

Same, that was very hypocritical considering their holier-than-thou attitude.

I don't mind looking, hell it's smart gameplay. I remember recently (no idea which season) there was a challenge where they had to find a surfboard with the correct image on it, and a team was smart enough to look at the board another team turned in that was right and went to get that same one. Smart. But if you are going to take this moral authority stance, then try to muscle around someone to try and peek at their stuff? No.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

So a pointless episode where we knew before it started it was non elimination. Dumb. Should have been setup as a fight to get to the final 4.

Or even some twist where it's just 2 teams battling it out. Though that might make things too obvious for the winner if 1 team gets ahead(compared to if 3 teams are in it,there's better chance of at least 2 teams in the final road block)

Episodes like this where you knew it was non elimination are real pointless. That detour was also one of the most awkward/creepy to watch things ever.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

The initial look on the judge's (the guy handing out the next clue) face when Nicole & Travis were applying makeup was classic.

I'm pulling for Jason & Amy to win next Sunday.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

This spoils 2 teams(1 of which who for sure didn't win) who likely didn't win the season:

Spoiler

Leo/Jamal for sure didn't win since they're on the next season(something I don't think would've happened had they won).

Tim/Marie were rumored to be on that season but didn't end up being on(so they more than likely didn't win either,and producers had to chose between them and Leo/Jamal as to who should return)

Also, my tvguide spoils where in the US the race finishes. If you saw Amazing Race Canada, you'll realize the irony of it.

Spoiler

The race finishes in Alaska! For those who didn't get the irony.....Amazing Race Canada finished in a big city in the spring time(so warm weather,lots of people all over and stuff) Yet Amazing Race USA will be finishing in a place with not that many people, and in freezing cold weather. Im sure many would've expected things to be the other way around.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Season finale tonight!


Unfortunately for next season,the boot order isn't confirmed after first few legs(even though all the legs are completed) so I might just force myself to watch the season lol

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Im gonna watch football and DVR The Race.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Cool ending to see most of the leg revolve around using the helicopter. The final challenge seemed so hard, but guess it was easy because they were done it fast.

Spoiler

First 3/4 of the race Travis/Nicole were doing great, but then the last quarter they just completely fell apart. One of biggest collapses on Amazing Race. It's something with married doctors lol. Even on amazing race canada, the doctors team just lost it before they finished last and they seemed like they were imploding/turning on each other in weeks leading up to that.

I guess I'm ok with Jason/Amy winning. The best of the 3 remaining

This season still didn't really feel that great overall(prob cause my 3 fave teams were all eliminated several weeks ago), not to mention my fave team in Amazing Race won it last time, and Amazing Race Canada had a great season(with team I liked winning too)

Sounds like Brandon/Adam are coming back in the future? Or else they wouldn't have aired only them saying that they'd want to come back.

And regarding next season(this spoils who is in next season and 2 of the teams who were eliminated early)

Spoiler

I'm happy that the twins and that youtube team got eliminated in the first 2-3 legs of the race. Those were 2 of my least fave teams returning next season. Really hoping Globetrotters/David-Connor make it far(and one of them winning it).

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Travis is a jerk! They kept saying how they want to play the game right, play with integrity to be good role models for their five children. They must have seen how you berated your wife every time she did a roadblock poorly. He gave her no support or encouragement whatsoever. When they finished third she said, 'I'm sorry I disappointed you!" He said, "That's ok!" What a dick!

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

Nicole and Travis really fell apart these last few episodes from a game and emotional level. Thet didn't deserve to win.

I was really happy for the couple that took it home. They were definitely my favorite of the remaing teams. And wow did the woman fill out the bathing suit nicely in that phone booth challenge.

Re: Amazing Race Season 23

I was rooting for Tim and Marie. Amy and Jason lost my support when they started helping those repugnant doctors.
