Oh. Well either way she's still annoying as hell.

Yes! The Fogals are finally out! Although I do have to say that I was kind of surprised that it was them and not the Geniuses that got eliminated. When Mrs. Fogal made that comment about it being appropriate that they got eliminated in a church because that is her home, I thought I was going to throw up in my mouth.

Hurray! No more whining!

On another note: Is anyone else still playing the online game that accompanies this show?

tunatartare · #64 07-24-2006, 10:32 PM

I gave up after the second episode. Partly because my computer is too slow.

ShaedyKD · #65 07-25-2006, 11:11 PM

I just wanna send big ups to God after he answered my prayers and the Fogels got kicked off yesterday.

What's up with Air Force sucking lately? They need to get back in it. The Boston boys are stepping it up, Air Force and CIA better watch out.

Yeah! They're gone! Now I can fully enjoy the show.

I wonder if, after viewing the show, they're going to realize how stupid they made themselves look. Particularly that whiney daughter.

Go Air Force! That's who I'm rooting for.

Oh nice I missed Monday's episode, glad the Fogols are gone. Kayte needed a good punch in the face if she stuck around longer than they had.

I thought it was funny that, last week, after they spent a crazy amount of time digging in random places, the Miss USA girls were like, "I wouldn't be mad at either one of you if you wanted to quit now. This is HARD." But then, in Monday's epi, after just walking around a church, trying to figure out a clue, one of them said, "This is the hardest thing we've had to do." I thought, "So, let me get this straight... you've not broken a sweat at all, and last week you practically broke your backs, but THIS is harder?!?"

Anyway, I'm glad God answered so many prayers and relieved the remaining teams (and America) from the whininess that is Katye Fogel.

I'm still an Air Force fan.

I have been enjoying this show. Loved it last night when the Geniuses did not care about Sam's asthma and said "we are climbing" and then griped because Sam had to take a long break. Was sorry to see team USA go, they had such a good attitude even though they always solved clues late.

Team Air Force is still my favorite to win. Did not realize that the gal on the team was married to one of the guys, thought they were just a group of friends from the Academy.

I was hoping that ex-CIA would be eliminated instead of Miss USA. I really liked that team.

blueangel · #71 08-01-2006, 10:11 AM

I loved the Miss USA team. I would have liked to see the Southies go. They're a bit boring.

That clue about washing the streets was very difficult. I was surprised it was solved by everyone.

I'm still rooting for Air Force!

Ok, I missed the first episode of this whole series, so maybe this was addressed then, but...

Sometimes, right before the show goes to a commercial, they show hints. Like, in last night's epi, on the side of the Trophy place, there was a sign that said, "Wipe out the colour to find the path. -Genworth Financial" (Or something very close to that.)

Can the contestants see those hints, or are they added in post production that only the TV audience can see (like the yellow line on televised football games)?

None of the teams have ever referred to those hints, so I assume they can't see them. But, if they can't see them, why are they there?

Kudos to Sam for bucking up and actually climbing the mountain.

I was sorry to see Miss USA eliminated

Now there's only one woman left in the whole show!

Go Air Force!

tunatartare · #73 08-01-2006, 10:53 AM

Genworth Financial sponsors the show. My guess is that the hints are super-imposed to give Genworth more face time during the show and to let viewers try to figure it out at home.

blueangel · #74 08-01-2006, 11:11 AM

I really like the show, but I find the commercial plugs very annoying. The contestants were obviously coached to say, "Oh, a MOTOROLA phone call!" when the phone rings. And, "Lets look it up on ASK.COM!"

tunatartare · #75 08-01-2006, 11:16 AM

Oh clearly. This is product placement at its finest.
