Back with Lyn/Karlyn finally getting a little farther up by using the loops. Karlyn moving up the wall now. Tom still stuck. He says his ankle is twisted. Terry telling him to stay straight. Other teams arriving now. Kim/Rob there as are Erwin/Godwin. Kim is almost up the wall and Erwin or Godwin tells Rob his girl has game. Kellie and Jamie there now and going up the wall. Vipul/Arti on their way. David at top tells Mary to use her legs as much as possible. Mary tells David to shut up, that she's more than serious. He says he was just trying to help and she says then to shut up. Tom and Karlyn both make it to the top as does Kim. Godwin makes it up and Erwin going up now. Kellie/Jamie up the wall (or one of them at least). Rob/Kim are done and to mat. Rob/Kim are team #5. They hug. Kellie/Jamie are team #6. They clap and hug. Vipul/Arti still in taxi. Erwin/Godwin are team #7. They cheer. Tom/Terry jump on mat. They are team #8. They cheer. Mary stuck trying to get up the wall. She's telling David to shut up. Lyn getting up the wall now. She's just a little further up than Mary. Karlyn talking Lyn up the wall and they are up and at the mat. They are team #9. They hug. Phil asks how they just got through that and one says she had to do it for herself and her children. Mary stuck but she's almos tto the top. She's apologizing to David now. They get to mat and are team #10. They can't believe it. Mary hits David and says he told her she was last. Mary hugs Phil and then the Chinese welcomer. Finally hugs husband when Phil tells her to hug husband. Vipul and Arti finally there and going up the wall. (I think the others were watching and cheering but not sure?) Vipul/Arti are last team to arrive. They have been elminated. They say it was a great ride and amazing experience. (Aww, I'm sad, my local team elminated on the first night!!!)

Next week, tempers flare between Rob/Kim. Horses have their own plans for some teams. It's a feat that may be Peter/Sarah's downfall.

Thanks Suzs - Not sure what's causing the slowdown on the board tonight but I do hope it gets better next week.

while I have to say I really liked the pacing and the location for tonights show, 2 eliminations in the first ep is just too much. we're just getting to know these people. and you know it will end up meaning more non-elimination legs later on. still, loving sarah and peter, the coal mining couple, and the single moms.

Superb spoiling as always Raen! I have to say I was more than a bit disappointed with the double-elimination the first show. I would prefer fewer eliminations early on while we are getting to know the teams. They seem like a wonderful diverse group this year and the season (aside from the eliminations) seems to be off to a great start.

For some reason Sarah reminds me of Maggie. They could be sisters. LOL

Loved the show! I always forget how much I like TAR until it starts up again...then it all comes back to me. Hated to see the Muslims go...I thought they would have been very interesting to watch along the way. So far liking the Coalminers...I know go figure...the Cho Bro's, the Recovered Drug Addicts, even the Cheerleaders. Not so fond of Three-legged pair or the Gay Duo...but give them time. (sorry...can't remember all the names until about 3 or 4 shows in.) Please TAR...don't mess this show up by bringing in another Romber. Leave as is with people we don't know.

I was very disappointed in both eliminations tonight, but especially Vipul & Arti. They seemed so nice and genuine, I wanted to see them go far. Liked Peter & Sarah and (I surprised myself) Duke & Lauren. Didn't like Lyn & Karlyn, Rob & Kimberly or David & Mary. I am relatively indifferent to the other teams, though I would have liked to see someone else get first than the two pretty boys.

When teams were being introduced, Rob and Kimberly were shown running along a beach. Kimberly looked extremely thin. Too thin.

Anybody else notice that Vipul's shirt said "Colege"? Was that a "pun" or is there a school out there called "Colege"... guess I could google it...

I'm a pretty boy lover!!!.....er....did that sound right?? My family has always accused me of liking only the hunks!!!! If he's young and hot I'll root for him...they say. Well.....they may be on to something!!!! LOL I rooted for Ethan and Burton on survivor...that FBI guy too but I dont remember his name...oh yeah it was Brady??? I think. I rooted for the frat boys last year on TAR because they were sooo hilarious!!!! But I lost my heart to the Hippies...."Tatao!!!!" I LOVE Will.....and have come to like Boogie. It is suffice to say that there were many more..... And this year I love the models...they have a little bit of a twist on the usual pretty boys cuz they went through some tough stuff...they didnt have life easy. To bring yourself through and clear of an addiction??? I cant even imagine the strength that took!!! I have to give them props!! They remind me of my fav on Project Runway.....also a fellow FORMER druggie....Jeffrey..I love that guy!!!

I, too, was sadly disappointed with the double elimination tonight. I had thought for a moment perhaps that the Last Team card might be a special prize to help the last team recover. But when I saw the mat - you know what that means. Also, I notice that they are interjecting more skill tests tonight. The wall scaling to get to the mat would defintely have affected any team who had trouble scaling the wall. Since the last team arrived seemingly after everyone else had scaled the wall, it was not a difference maker, but it could have been. So I think they are trying to make it more of a race and keep everyone working hard. I am not sure how I like Sunday nights - especially when football games overrun and mess up the TiVo, but I'll adjust.

I think they started with the double eliminations tonight because they started with 12 teams instead of the usual 11.

i was flippin' shocked when i saw the san francisco brothers filling squirt guns in the airport bathroom sink. i thought i had seen it wrong and maybe the guy was washing out his blue socks or something! and then they used them in the airport waiting area?! have they somehow missed the last several years of reality while attending big name schools??? "cheese and crackers got all muddy", but those guys were <LC>.
