The only thing that annoyed me about Rob and Amber, was Rob kept repeating, "we already won a million dollars", i really wanted Amber to say...um honey...I won the million and remember two words...pre-nup

The guy who kept saying suck it up, I was yelling at the tv...um hello altitude adjustment, STFU

The Mom and Son team is cute

but I don't have any favorites yet

I'm actually okay with all the teams - Ray and Deana are annoying, though.

ms_gwyn, I was thinking the same thing when Rob said that - it almost looked like Amber did the "yeah, sure" smile/smirk into the camera and just let Rob go on talking about "them" winning the million

Looking forward to next week's episode already!

I'm actually OK w/the Rob/Amber team, surprisingly...I think it's b/c I'm already used to his personality. I thought he would bug me more. I love how Amber just smiles when he says stuff like "we already won a million...."

I already really dislike Debbie/Bianca, the "lifelong friends" (whatever that means, kissy-kissy-love-you-blah-blah-blah). If I was POW/Beauty Queen, I would definitely remember them when it comes time to yield someone for their little "go to the middle sandpile" instructions. Not smart to be cut throat that early.

Also don't like this seasons cross b/t Lori/Bolo/Jonathan/Victoria. They need to go.

Sad to see the hillbillies go (did anyone else love the subtitles when they spoke?). They should have been around a little longer for comedy's sake.

Rooting for my DZ sister & her son, though. Thought they did pretty well, but her som needs to lay off trying to form alliances with everyone he meets.

I can't believe CBS is doing a reality show about Amber and Rob's wedding for the fall season. I bet cbs is paying them good money for that too. How much more money do they need?

azdtaxi · #35 03-02-2005, 08:02 PM

I love the boyfriends ... they are my favs they kept say the funniest randomest things

ZTABullwinkle · #36 03-02-2005, 10:25 PM

Part of me is really rooting for the ex-POW (who I recognized as soon as I saw him come out of the helicopter) and the pageant queen. I was really rooting for the two friends from South Carolina...how funny was it when they got out to pull the wagon because the guy was petaling too slow!!!

I think I am going to tire of the boyfriends very quickly. As for Rob and Amber...GRRRR! He was too annoying on Survivor, now I have to listen to him on Amazing Race? Yuck!

Shit, I'd probably do the same thing...all for the money.

They probably had dinner with Trista and Ryan or something.

Okay, I do think this season is going to be good!
I LOVE the boyfriends(they cracked me up!) and I liked the mother/son team, too. I did NOT like the blonde barbie twins and the "life long friends" who were WAY to kissey and huggy. The POW and the beauty queen was kind of on my nerves, too.
So sad that the hill billies got Philiminated but there subtitles were HYSTERICAL!!
Rob and Amber aren't as bad as I thought.....I agree to just let them be and they will shoot themselves in the foot!

valkyrie · #39 03-09-2005, 01:34 PM

Rob is an asshole.

Ali*Z · #40 03-09-2005, 03:03 PM

Was anyone else bored by last night's episode?

ms_gwyn · #41 03-09-2005, 03:25 PM

I actually think what Rob did was ok (but he is an idiot)....you've got to take advantage anyway you can in this race.....that being said....it wasn't fair that he didn't chip in and also I wished the bus driver hadn't waited so long for the back doors to be open.

I thought what Rob did was fine (underhanded, but this is a contest) until he bribed the bus driver not to open the back doors. That was a stupid move. He had just pissed everyone off about the bus thing, and by bribing the bus driver (and pissing other racers off even more) he and the other 3 teams could get -- what -- a 1 minute lead? One minute is irrelevant at that stage of the Race. Just ask Cheryl, who was one of the first off the bus and one of the last to finish shining shoes.

Sly is fine, but a racer should be sly carefully and calculatedly, not just 'cause.

Sidenote: Wondering if anyone else has read Phil's new book: No Opportunity Wasted: Creating a List for Life? My sister- and brother-in-law gave it to me for my birthday, and I'm actually enjoying it. Reading it, you get a real sense for how and why the task on TAR race -- including the gross food ones -- are chosen.

ADPiShannan · #43 03-09-2005, 07:14 PM

Debbie and Bianca- cant take them. I dont like the kissy stuff with them and I just cant handle how they are. I dont think Ill be able to take much of them.

Mother and Son- Also dont like them. I thought I would, but they annoy me a lot and he is a whiner.

The two teams I seem to root for and I totally didnt think I would is the marine and his gf and Rob and Amber. He is so scheming, but he cracks me up. I hope they dont win the million, they dont need it, but I hope they make it far, just so I can be entertained. I think they will have some problems though, teams are gonna start doing things to spite them. They dont want them there.

I didnt really like the brothers much, but at the end of last night, I did. They actually were crying cause the girls got kicked off. I did think theyd be stronger. I wonder if thats their strategy to seem weak or behind and then come out of nowhere. I like them though.

The two boyfriends, I can tolerate them. I laughed when they called the fish market guys bitches. It made me crack up.

My hubby likes the Ohio couple, from Youngstown. I agree they remind me of Bolo from last season so I dont care for them.

The grandparents seem to be doing a lot better than most odler couples from the past go them.

My overall hope is that the marine and gf win, but time will tell....

I love Amazing Race. I thought about applying for the family season, but I dont know who besides my hubby, Id take on it.

valkyrie · #44 03-09-2005, 08:11 PM

I really like the show better when it's farther into the season and we get to know everyone a little better.

So far, I actually like everyone except Rob & Amber, Deana and bandanahead and the POW/Pageant queen couple.

ZTABullwinkle · #45 03-09-2005, 08:46 PM

Rumor has it that the ex-POW and beauty queen break up during the race. I read it on television without pity. They were griping at each other last night a little. I hope they make it to the end and win it. I like what his plans for his share are.

I also like the brothers. I think that it is a good thing the girls were eliminated last night. Distraction!

The boyfriends are wearing thin on my nerves, as are the mother/son pair.

As for last night's episode being boring, I think it was too short. By 9:30 the first team had checked into the pit stop. GRRRRR....It was Rob and Amber. What do they need the money for?
