We saw Kevin and Drew get the detour and they choose the wrangling, did not see them complete the task though and then the mat. The wrangling seemed very easy, I expected from the clue that they would have to lasso the horse as well. Seemed fairly easy since the cowboys did all the work to bring the animal down(I felt terrible for those horses, thank goodness these guys do this for them).

I wish Jill and JV could have stayed around and Kevin and Drew went, though I loved them first time around I don't think they are cut out for it now.

Put me on the Romber fan side, I think he's a hoot. And more power to them if they were able to parlay a reality show appearance into a lucrative career. I find Rob very personable and Amber has grown on me. And like Kizz said R&A are correct in saying everyone wants to beat them.I'm horrified that people like the BQs, there's a team I didn't have to see so soon.

Love the Cha Chas as well, Oswald's comment to R&A, congrats on your reality show network was quite funny as well. I don't think they are a couple though, just friends.

ARGH#^*@$.

Why do big networks sell their programs to International stations (like my CTV here in Canada) and then refuse to allow us to watch the online stuff??

I've been looking forward to the sequester -- Elimination Station -- and guess what. Not available for users outside of the US.

I don't mind seeing Rob and Amber. I do mind being shafted out of the "extra" content.

<leaves, bitter and angry>.

ChaChaCha are a couple now. Oswald said so during the show. In their previous season they were just friends, then they had some rough times after the show, they made up and now they are a couple.

my thoughts :-) i wonder if rob and amber actually have jobs. or all they do is go on reality shows. whatever, right? :-). was surprised that the guidos have mellowed. they were pretty abrasive the first time. i really like Cha Cha tho, i hope they do well, but i have a feeling they'll be out early. also glad that Kentucky finally gets that they have to watch out for themselves. I got really frustrated with them last year, when they depended too much on other people. also felt as tho this was too rushed. i don't know why it wasn't longer, it should have been.

Karen, my guess is the answer is because they didn't sell that content to CTV. Now whether it wasn't for sale, or whether CTV didn't buy it, I don't know. Stations make big $ off of selling international rights and I'm guessing they're not keen to give away their content. CBS is using the online extras as a marketing ploy for people to tune in to CBS in the U.S. and make their ratings increase. I'd be willing to bet that they don't really care about whether ppl from other countries see this marketing-driven content (even though they'd never say so publicly) because it doesn't help their bottom line.

But I hear ya. It pisses me off too.

I agree that it was a fun show with a lot of funny remarks. I liked Rob's expression and comments after he gave in and let Oswald and Danny on the bus. And Oswald and Danny talking to Rob and Amber and asking them if they had their own reality cable network. I wish I could remember more of them.

Best thing about CTV, for those of us without Tivo, is that they run the show on time, so we can watch DH from the beginning (or DT).

Jimmer, I like those that's been mentioned. I will try add a couple.

Teri, as they're getting to the Detour task, she said something like... maybe we are the first team to arrive... Ian laughed with incredulous and answered: That would be a miracle from GOD! -- But at the same time he must figure they really could be favoured, and as if in a convo with God, he goes, did you hear that?

Eric, can't remember the circumstances, in the middle of getting somewhere, said to the girl Danie(?) (pp): Just remember, I'm the leader of this team... and the girl answered -- I can't remember, but she might as well have said "Yes, Master!

The Guidos were the team that went for the fast forward, completed it and then got lost on the way to the pit stop and came in toward the back of the pack.

Thanks for explaining that Allietex, I wonder what happen. Now it makes sense but I still didn't see them hit the mat.

The Guidos didn't get lost.

They took it as there right for completing the fast forward...that they could get a hotel room and relax overnight. I don't know if they thought they were so far ahead or what or thought they would be.

They got a room and some rest and came it last at the next Pit Stop. But due to a disqualification, they weren't eliminated.

The Guidos have said that they got a hotel room after winning the Fast Forward in TAR2 because a number of locals told them that they shouldn't take a cab for the long trip to the Pit Stop and they had a long wait for the next bus.

Yep. It was just too bad that there was that disqualification.

Sorry, I guess I had forgotten the details, I just knew they blew their fast forward because of a stupid move.

The Mom and Daughter team (the daughter's name was Emily) was not disqualified. They were penalized for failing to complete a task before going to the pit stop and the penalty was enough that it put them behind the Guidos.

I think there might be a misunderstanding Sheilaree. We were talking about events in the first season where the Guidos finished ahead of the Mom and Daughter team, because of a penalty.

Oh, so there was a disqualification in this Amazon Race? I was watching the whole show, and I couldn't understand what was going on. Thanks.
