YES!!! "Amazing Race 6" November 16!!!!!
 

the show is so good they had to do two in one year!!! i cannot believe it. this is the new thread to keep up with the new season!! yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race6/

I'm just so excited.

I love this show, but I dont want it to get "overexposed" and hopefully people will not get tired of it.

considering what they do over at TWoP, i'm not worried about people getting tired of it!

I *knew* I could count on my sister to get this thread going! :D


(Maybe we should think about applying for a future edition ;))


Anyways, I CAN'T WAIT for this season to start airing!!!! :)

I wish I had known they were going to start in Chicago. I would have tried to sneak a peek.

they would be so great if we were a team. we would represent all sorority sisters everywhere. we would show the world that we are not weak!:D

my mom got me hooked to this show! i told her we should try to go on it. Then people could see how we really act towards each other lol so much for people thinking she is all nice and crap.
Anyway can't wait for the next session to start.

Two more days!!! :D

wahoo!!!!! my sister left for Scotland this past friday, but she set her television to record on Tues. night!!!:D

tonight is the night folks!!

That guy in yellow is just AWFUL! He is really obnoxious and rude.....I hope he gets eliminated soon!

Yes, Johnathan (yellow guy) is a dick. I hope he gets booted quickly. I can't take an entire season with him. I'm bummed that Joe & Avi got eliminated first. Now I need a new favorite team. Maybe the girls from Queens.

CP2000 I totally agree, I can't believe his wife stays with him and puts up with is CRAP!

I don't know who my favorite team will be, but it will not be them.

I like the older couple and the father/daughter team!

I'm sorry that they 2 guys from NYC got eliminated

I taped Hour #2, so I will have to watch it later (I accidentally went online and saw that Avi and Joe get eliminated...oops!)

Anyhow, I also really like Gus's mellowing influence on his daughter...I think he was very wise and sage on her, not to drive like a maniac on the road. Good advice, methinks.

I also kind of like the wrestlers for some reason (even though Bolo's shaving pattern is a bit odd for my liking). They crack me up! I guess I like their "heart".


The guy in yellow is the "Second Coming" of that azzz, Colin, from Amazing Race 5, shown here:

Colin is an angel compared to this guy

:rolleyes:

collin is awesome compared to 'yellow superhero':rolleyes: yeah i am pretty sickened by jonathan. what a jerk. and he is so annoying and mean!! what is even worse is that he is a bigger idiot when he is excited. i cannot stand him at all. i do not even like to look at him. why is victoria married to him? i do not get it. women deserved so much better than that. i have been in her shoes before so i HATE it when i see women with men that are that dominating and cruel. i just hate it. and the way he is so full of himself? give me a break!!


i do not have favorites yet, but i like Freddy/Kendra and Kris/Jon


it is interesting seeing Lori and Bolo. they are extremely tough, just not fast. i like Bolo, but Lori is starting to get on my nerves.

Funny, I had exactly the opposite reaction to him. This is a race, and you can't win if you're going to let the other teams just pass you all the time. I thought maybe Hera would turn around and slap him when he said "don't let the other teams get to you." A tip, Mr. Retired-CIA: the other teams weren't the ones getting to her. And enough of his underwear, please.

As for Jonathan, I think Colin planted him this season to up his own image. He makes Colin look sane and saintly.

I think so far I'm liking Aaron and Hayden best (despite Aaron's tricking the two roomies into following them for an hour and a half), probably followed by Kris and Jon and Freddy and Kendra. (Uh oh, bad sign. They're all the model/model-actor combos.) Bolo and Lori are definately interesting. And I was laughing so hard I was hurting when Rebecca put gasoline into the tank. Bet she won't make that mistake again. (But bet she'll make another one like it.)

Meredith and Maria seem likable, but sheesh -- they followed blindly for an hour and a half before saying "Hmmmm. Maybe this isn't the right way."

Mystic! Noooooo! They are horrible for doing that! It's one thing to hide a clue or something so people don't know what they are looking for (I'm thinking of the beetle digging last season), but what Aaron did was terrible! I can't like them just for that.

I don't think I have a favorite yet - though I do like the grandparents.

I know. Heaven help me.

It was a stupid move, I think. Aside from the ethics of it, there's too much to lose by playing dirty this early in the game.

Can't help liking them though. So far they seem to be the best combination of smarts, strategy, ability and cooperation (with each other at least).

Don't worry, I am rooted for the model/dating too (Hayden and Aaron). LOL.

ETA for names

I haven't picked my absolute "favorite" as yet, but I'm kinda liking the father/daughter team! :) All I know, is that an all-male team can't win this year, since we've already eliminated the all-male team from the race :o

i can't believe i missed it tuesday! i wasn't even home i forgot it was on so i stayed out later that night at one of the early thanksgiving dinners i had. :(

I *think* they're rerunning it tonight on CBS (8 pm EST)....so maybe you can still see it! :)

you are correct. the encore is tonight

Has anybody noticed that this year's Race is getting to be more like the show "Survivor" in away?
As for picks---last Race I chose Chip and Kim early on. This time it seems more of a toss up.

Last night was the first time I had watched it. The couple that call each other "baby" all the time are annoying (sorry, I don't know all the names yet.) But poor Victoria!! I think that if it got to a point where I knew I had no chance to win, I would just drive off and leave Jonathan's sorry azz out there by himself.

i finally caught it yesterday since i have class on tuesdays. good so far. does anyone want to be my partner for the next season? for relationship we can put: greek chat. i promise i won't yell, be bossy, piss you off, and be all wacked out ;)

LOL :D I see the greekchat love growing here.

Did anybody catch where they are going next after Reykjavik?

he made me miss Colin. i didn't think that was possible. i wonder if he'll break any oxen though?

2nd episode. Tonight! :cool:

Cannot wait....is it bad that I'm praying Jonathan goes home tonight (and if not him, then the wrestlers????) :cool:

I really do not like Jonathan. I feel sorry for his wife. But apparently she sees something in him. What it is, I don't know.

and they are back with such pretty...pretty visuals.
those denmark shots tonight were magnificent

Had to share...on Saturday afternoon I arrived at LAX to fly to Philadelphia. As usual, Terminal One had been evacuated and the whole world was lining the streets outside. I was quite thankful not to be flying out. My friend pulled up to Terminal Six to drop me off and there were TV crews standing just inside the doors. I was like, great, what else is new? I go inside, and they were taping Season Seven!!! It was so cool!!!

Two teams arrived while I was there and they had their own check-in line. It was quite fun to watch the drama unfold.

OK did Jonathan hit his wife? This is a very abuse relationship and I hope that she gets the hell out! I mean in the previews he almost hit her! He did not ask if she was alright after she hit her head, but she needs to stop whinning..

The older couple, im faling in love with them, they have a GREAT relationship.

I was sorry to see the nyc girls leave, the moments that they showed tonight is the reason why this show is so great.

yeah jonathan is a huge ass whiny asshole. i bet he and his wife are getting divorced. yikes.

Ah, the Queens girls are gone. But I liked that they were ok with it and didn't fight with eachother. I wouldn't have been able to drive stick either.

Yeah, Jonathan is this close to hitting his wife. He's already beating her down emotionally. But I will say that comment about her botox face was funny.

I'm rooting for the older couple now. They're sweet.

It literally KILLS me to see Jonathan treating his wife like that. I don't know if I can watch anymore of his bullshit, and I can only hope that he's getting his. Now the whole world knows what kind of man he is. He's a MONSTER!

Don't know who I'm rooting for just yet, but all I know is that CBS needs to stop choosing "pretty people" enough of this "Dating Models" or "Engaged Actors" bullshit. They need to put normal, average looking people up in there. "Recently Divorced Mimes" would be interesting.

Good grief, Jonathon is so nasty and mean. I can't believe how he crashed the car's hood door down on his wife's head. My God, what an ass. I hope he is gone soon. If I was rowing in the seat behind him, I am sure that I would have punched him! I feel badly that Meredith and Maria are out, but they had good attitudes and took it all in stride.

As for Adam and Rebecca, and they being classified as "Formerly Dating"...um, yeah, Rebecca, the most obvious reason why you are not dating anymore is because my Spidey senses tell me that boyfriend is a friend of Dorothy's.

How about "recently engaged law students" or something along those lines? Or better yet "FRENZ who met on the INTARWEB!!!11!!" I agree on the pretty people -- I don't know anybody who watches TAR because contestants are hot -- we all want fun, interesting people and anyway it's too hard to tell them apart when the only thing that differentiates the couples is fake boobs vs. non fake boobs and weird jacked-out hair formations vs. non weird jacked-out hair formations.

What's up with el hornio? Is really bad hair supposed to fool anyone about his latent gayness?
