The Amazing Race - Season 23
 

It's back!!

- attention: spoilers ahead -

The teams for season 23:

Tim & Marie, exes
Nicole & Travis, married ER doctors
Rowan & Shane, theater performers
Chester & Ephraim, former NFL teammates
Nicky & Kim, baseball wives
Ally & Ashley, NHL ice crew
Leo & Jamal, cousins
Jason & Amy, dating
Tim & Danny, oil field workers
Brandon & Adam, childhood friends
Hoskote & Naina, father/daughter

I really liked Nicole and Travis.

But... after 22 seasons, you KNOW you need to read the clues carefully. How on earth did 3 teams misread the clues?

I know what you mean. I felt bad for Hoskote & Naina, but was glad that their (well, her) misreading of the clue didn't really affect the outcome of their game. Whether Naina had stayed out in the boat or not, they were securely enough in last place that it didn't matter.

I'm liking the guys from Charlotte (must be my Queen City roots at play), the ER docs, and the bearded fellas. I know we're only one episode in, but so far, there's only one team I don't particularly care for. I like it when the likable teams outnumber the unlikable ones!

Yeah, me too. Last year, there were too many mean teams. This year, it's just the exes that are getting on my nerves (so far... )

Given the way my favorites tend to get eliminated (or voted out in Survivor) early, and that my least favorites tend to do well, it's only fitting that the only team I didn't really care for was in the final three. Marie is a piece of work. :rolleyes:

I'm happy for Jason and Amy! They were such a positive couple (except for all the times Amy helped Nicole - against Jason's wishes).

Another All Star season? It feels like they just had one of those.

Amy (of Team Jason and Amy) is a Phi Sigma Sigma from Barry University(FL).

Loved Jason and Amy and am so glad they won! They showed a lot more team work, encouragement of each other, etc.

It cracked me up that Marie made the dude sign a 60-40 split prize agreement. She did rock at the robot challenge. Can't deny her that.

I felt so bad for Nicole. (I can never remember the men's names.. why is that?) Her husband was a total jerk to her. Maybe if he gave her some encouragement, she'd have done better. She was amazing to do that ice climb with only one pick. I'd have totally freaked out at that point.
