Completely rigged for ROMBER in the beginning (although I don't think they will win in the end).

Man, that kid was pretty rude to his mom. I don't feel bad for him.

I do feel bad for the teams that win and get to start first in the morning, only to get to the next place and have to wait for it to open. That sucks.

He was - I did like them at first, but now they annoy me.


That is what I liked about last night - there was separation, and teams were rewarded (and Romber given) an edge for finishing the previous day so quickly.

There is no way that they made the first flight without it being held for them - by CBS. Without the flight being held, ROMBER is stuck waiting for hours, and in the last bunch fighting to avoid elimination.

I dunno, I've seen people in prior shows board planes right when the plane was about to leave the terminal. It wasn't an international flight, so there would be no customs & they could get right through....



I think you are paranoid

That kid was a chump. Although his mom was pretty annoying too.

I like the fact that all teams start off the same. If you get into a bind - like a vehicle breakdown or something - but you don't finish last, you aren't doomed. It makes the show more exciting, I believe.

Agreed, the plane is held just long enough to let them on, the first train holds just long enough for all the teams in that group to make it etc.

It really did seem a bit rigged last night.

anyone see the original "Lost" show, with teams dropped off in the middle of no where & they had to race around the world to get back to the US?

They had no clues, no $$ & basically were told that the first team to the US (forgot where the finish line was) won the prize.

It was pretty cool & people were more ingenious in getting $$$ ,etc.

Next week's previews look good - Gretchen gets whacked in the face, covered with blood, and the Brothers roll their car.

Two hour show.

It's rigged to give sympathy to these 2 teams to draw the camera & drama away from Rob & Amber

I KNOW!!! And if he did less biatching and moaning everytime he did a roadblock, then maybe they wouldn't have been kicked off.
