Oh, this is great! So many teams I <3, and at least two that I hate.

Who the heck are Amanda and Kris?

AGDee · #3 01-19-2011, 12:28 PM

Globetrotters and Cowboys.. both good. Wish the Detectives were there. Not crazy about any of the other teams honestly.

Well at least they didn't bring back the lesbians.

Ugh re Ron of Ron and Christina. He was so arrogant toward other teams and mean to his own daughter.

On the other hand, glad to see Kynt and Vyxsin again.

C'MON COWBOYS!

I was just glad to see some real challenges again; these at least appeared a little more difficult. Or, at least, more entertaining to watch!

This better have recorded... going to check now. Why is Survivor available On Demand, but TAR is not??

TAR is usually available on the CBS website. I have watched entire seasons that way.

I know, I just get sick of looking at a computer screen. The DVR didn't catch TAR or Survivor this week because they included the taglines in the show name. Time to set the DVR so this doesn't happen again!

AGDee · #11 02-21-2011, 01:21 PM

I want to cry. It's not on the DVR, not on On Demand and I'm trying to watch it online and it keeps freezing. Nasty weather issues through the area must be screwing with bandwidth

adpi*violet · #12 02-22-2011, 10:20 AM

I watched it online last night also. Had to keep restarting it and figuring out where it had stopped, but I wanted to see it bad enough that I kept going until I saw the whole thing. Must fix DVR!

Jamie and Cara definitely still grate on me. Liking the Globetrotters, Zev and Justin, and Gary and Mallory. Just wish Mallory would stop praying to God, Jesus and various Saints so much.

AGDee · #13 02-22-2011, 08:25 PM

I was able to watch it a little later in the day. I'm blaming weather on the earlier glitches.

I forgot about Zev and Justin! I love them so much!

I found it kind of interesting how some teams were just giving answers to other teams. I found myself questioning whether they should have received some sort of penalty for not actually completing the task themselves. I know in some cases, there have been penalties for that kind of thing. It made me wonder how they decide whether the task actually has to be completed by that team or not.

DeltaBetaBaby · #14 02-23-2011, 10:56 AM

Finally got around to watching last night:

Zev and Justin are so very much my favorites. I liked Mike & Mel their first time around, but they are so obviously out of their league on an all-star season. Mallory is one of those people who should be annoying, but she's just too cute. HATE HATE HATE the redheads.

I think giving away answers is pretty dumb, but when I saw the flags, I thought there were so many that the front teams would be very wise to work together.

It looks like Amanda and Kris are destined to go out quickly, which is too bad. I wouldn't mind seeing the cowboys go home first.

I think Amanda and Chris are far enough ahead -- and presumably with the race continuing after the pit stop, there is no equalizer ahead* -- that they'll be okay. The Cowboys on the other hand . . . .

And while I think working together on breaking the code was a great idea, I just don't get giving the answer away.

* Watch me be wrong about this.
