LOL Spear. Were we posting at the same time in a "Great Minds Think Alike" moment, or were you just giving a better, more direct link to the video?

Naw, just great minds! And you may have been a split second slower, but your link is better and more direct. Plus, you even provided the minute mark to look for the cameo.

Oh my gosh. You had me thinking it really was a circa 1980s video until I saw Phil. Remember during the first few seasons of TAR when some posters would razz Phil's outfits by saying he looked like he was wearing women's blouses? I can only imagine what they'd say about this!

I didn't know Richard Simmons is famous in New Zealand too. I'm American and have never seen Jersey Shore or the Kardashians so it always startles me when I see references to them at international news sites. Though I guess Richard S. is better than them.

Anyone and everyone is better than the Kardashians and/or Jersey Shore.

I do hate that I will miss the show "live" tonight, but then I will be seeing the Broadway road show of "Cats" which I haven't seen in forever! I don't usually work evening shows, but it is only here for five shows, which means only 50 or so volunteers - out of nearly 200 - get to see it!

Do we have any idea why there is no Elimination Station? Has there been any kind of announcement or explanation?

on RFF there was a thread speculating where ES was located (in December postings when TAR was filmed) but - no one commented after one poster noticed there was no button for watching ES.. so guess its a mystery TNN\

there is speculation that Phil has a video blog (I havent seen it) and his blog replaced the ES

Reader - Thanx! I didn't think I had missed it,but wanted to be sure. I always enjoyed watching the interactions there, but networks have budgets too!

I've actually posted on the CBS board about it (along with many others) but of course it would be stupid to expect the CBS people to actually reply...LOL!

I'm so disappointed that Flight Time relieved himself publicly in Austria.

From Sean's blog: "I actually sent Flight Time a message on Facebook after that episode, asking if it was indeed the way it appeared, or if it was editing. He did confirm for me that he was guilty as charged, stating "When you gotta go, you gotta go."

Too bad he made that choice.

Interview with Phil:

http://www.tvguide.com/News/Amazing-Race-Finale-Keoghan-1032777.aspx

quote:

Phil Keoghan promises the promo hyping a "photo finish" on The Amazing Race: Unfinished Business is not an exaggeration.

"It's a really tight finish. We really didn't know right up until the last minute exactly who was going to come around the corner," he tells TVGuide.com. "But that's what makes it so exciting. The last couple of seasons, we've had a few wins that were not as close, so this was a real treat."
[...]



I like his joke for next season: "Teams must now make their way to Osama bin Laden's old residence."

I have to agree with Phil's assessment of Jen being the physically strongest player. I have been in awe of some of her performances this season. She just breezes through tasks, both physical and mental (finding the holy men in India comes to mind) where other players are floundering. And her sister is pretty doggone good too. It would not surprise me at all if this team wins.

As Phil said, all of the final teams are likeable. Well, some folks can't stand Mallory, but Pamy and I love her. And if we love here, she ain't bad.

Juju, I don't dislike Mallory; however, sometimes her enthusiasm overwhelms me and wears me out.

Spear, thanks! Great interview! I just love Phil! He has the best job in the world.

I love Mallory too! Gary too! I like all the teams that are left, so, it's a good feeling going into tonight's finale.

Also, sad, I hate when TAR season is over. I am glad they are filming this summer though! Hopefully won't be too long until we can watch the next season!

I'm happy with all the teams who are left too. I won't be disappointed with the winners at all.
