Rob and Amber were able to convince the airline to reopen the doors in an earlier leg (in South America).

Uchenna and Joyce then did the same thing in the last leg.

yup, now I remember. I knew I could count on someone here to know who it was.

I'm rooting for the boy team also. I'm not seeing the frat mentality that usually goes with the young male team.

I'm just thankful I wasn't climbing that wall. When I saw the foot hold was an elastic rope I knew I would be doomed. I could have been half way up and my big butt would have kept me bouncing back to the ground.

I know this is unpopular, but I liked Rob and Amber on TAR. Hated them both on Survivor. I thought Rob was hilarious because he took everything with such a sense of humor, but was also very good at the Race.

I enjoyed them on Tar and was happy to see Amber actually talk for once.

I enjoyed them on TAR and loved Rob in Survivor. He and Sean cracked me up.

Didn't like Rob and Amber on Survivor, loved them on TAR. They made me laugh. And a lot of times, I end up rooting for a team just because a lot of the teams keep whining and complaining about them. And boy was there a lot of moaning and groaning about R&A from those other teams, LOL.

I pretty much like Rob & Amber. Enjoyed them pretty much on Survivor but really liked them in TAR. When they were in London they had to find (I think #10 Baker St) re. Sherlock Holmes. I thought it was so cute the way Amber was dressed in the cape type coat with the deerstalker hat and the pipe, talking in an "english" accent.

Her being gay is not how he 'pictured' her. NOW, if during the interview at the point where he cried, he said 'and therefore, i couldn't continue to have a relationship with my daughter', I would think he was awful. But he didn't, he said he wanted to try to mend their relationship and become close again. It sounds like he wants to have a relationship with his daughter and her partner.
My heart actually broke for both of them. Him for his loss of expectations and her, for her father's reaction. I do agree with everyone else that I think this will be a wonderful shared experience for them.


Thank you, Texannie! That is exactly how I saw his tears. Not hateful, just emotional because he's still dealing with the change in their relationship. He obviously loves his daughter very much, but he's still processing the situation. You're right that he's grieving the loss of his expectations, but he seems to be trying to open himself up to new ones and a continued relationship with his daughter. It's not a lifestyle any parent would "choose" for their child, cause there's still a lot of unacceptance and it would be hard to see your child have to face that. I didn't see him as being hateful or ungrateful to have a healthy, beautiful daughter at all. He's just still very emotional. What's not to love about a man who can express his love for his child with tears?

BabyJax and Texannie....I agree with you two about Duke and Lauren.

Oh, and I loved Rob and Amber in both Survivor and Amazing Race.

I think I"ll enjoy this series of AR...I hope the fueding couple isn't as horrible as some have been in the past. Otherwise, lots of interesting characters. I don't have a clear favorite yet.

I LOVED Rob and Amber on TAR. Loved how they never bickered and, as obnoxious as he could be to everyone else (always with that smirk on his face), he was always very respectful and loving toward Amber. I loved their wedding, too! Wonder how they're doing these days? Should be about time for a baby to be coming along . . .

I'll never come to a point in my life where I will like Rob and Amber.

On Survivor...On TAR...or on my TV in general.

Hahahahaha!!! I even like Rob and Amber's wedding. They taught me how to open a champagne bottle correctly. Hold the cork, turn the bottle. Much easier.

Amen, Nick. I hated him on his first Survivor and hated when they brought him on All Stars. She was basically a "floater" or non-entity on both her Survivors. Then I really, really hated when they brought them on my favorite show and I had to see them again. Needless to say, I skipped the wedding.

Why doesn't TAR have many different subjects to discuss on this site like BB does? Just doesn't seem fair.

Cinapoo, I think the reason is that TAR doesn't have live feeds. If we could follow these folks 24/7, and get to know them in a more candid environment, we'd be analyzing them six ways to Sunday. As it is, we only get one highly edited hour a week. It doesn't leave much room for discussion.
