Next week: Kynt/Vyxsin pull out of the stops to stay in the race and Ron reverts to familiar behavior (yelling at Christina).

Jeez-4 trips on the plane at 30 minutes a pop-PLUS the time they needed to fix the flat-I think one of the questions next week is gonna be how far is TK/R back from R/C....

And the Speed Bump is basically a forced U-Turn...but there's a plane flight, so we got an equalizer coming...

Crap! Chris in preview just yelled at Ron here dad: Stop yelling at me! I didn't catch all, but it looks Ron is doing that same old controlling/"listen to me since I'm your dad I know best" thing.

Phil never said at the beginning of the season that there were no non-elimination legs this race. It was only in here that I kept reading posts that there were no non-elimination legs.

Thanks again Raen! So much easier reading your spoiling (while checking maps in another tab) beforehand. I'm able to chart out the course ahead of time and get a better sense, instead of the quick clips they give us during the show. Great spoiling!

1/2 till liftoff and excited.

Yikes! BF just called right now that she's on her way to deliver Christmas presents. hmmm maybe I better start of up the VCR recorder NOW.

I was worried about TK and Rachel and I'm glad they're still in it!

Grandpa & the tattoo .. that was something! Wow!

Yayyy for the first non-elimination round!

How can a team that was able to put together the invention thingy not able to see where the other teams were when they found the city clue? I ws nearly hoarse from yelling "by the river, by the river!"

It was an interview with Jonathan Littman where he said there would be no non-elimination legs this season.
http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment_tv_tvblog/2007/07/cbs-party-offer.html
I guess he lied! We kind of knew something was wrong as there were two spare laps on the schedule.

But anyway I'm very glad the goths got to stay - what a leg, I can understand tempers being frayed. Not keen on TK all of a sudden, I hate it when people use the word "disappointed", it's so passive aggressive.

Lots of frustration for several teams tonight.. well I was hoping for a "to be continued" but non-elimination works for me. Looks like it will take something drastic for K/V to survive, but at least they get a chance next time.

Kitt, I don't see anything in that column about any details of Amazing Race... maybe I'm missing a link there..

Sea, about halfway down the page, to the left of where the Animal Planet link is...

"The Amazing Race": The Emmy-winning reality show is not on the fall schedule and will return later. "The countries are very exotic," Littman says. "We're going to a couple of places that I don't even know where they are on the map. I've had to go look them up."

As for the teams? Lively.

"This is a tough group," Littman says. "They'll be younger. We still have a good balance."

The show will will do two fewer episdoes and drop the noneliminations to create more excitement.



I remember reading an interview of the same vein, and thinking that the additional legs that Phil mentioned must have been TBC legs, not NEL.

I was glad TK and Rachel are still in it. After putting that invention together while it appeared that there wasn't a sample one to follow or imitate, I felt they definitely earned it. Like Tntitanfan, I couldn't help but wonder why he wasn't watching where the other people were flying.

I'm loving some of the challenges they're doing this season!

Ah yes.. I see it now, but per Raen upthread, Phil corrected them on non eliminiations after that.

Anyway, now we have one. And I had heard him say on a clip way back, about the speed bump thing and now we have that too.

Remember when the FF was doing a task instead of cutting your hair or having a tattoo. If they already had a lot of tattoos, it wouldn't be a decission on their part.

I'd have just had them put the tat in the most out of the way place that also had plenty of padding.. but I'd certainly have done it.

Well, Granddad will have a souvenir of the race that he can show all his pals and take with him clear to the grave! Tasteful tattoos too.

Whew! Did I luck out last night. I set the recorder and then best friend came with presents. Turned out she just wanted to do a drop by, other errands to run. I went back upstairs to the TV and discovered it was recording ON THE WRONG CHANNEL. Switched quick and it was only @ the 'previouslys'. What a great episode!

You've got that right Sea! I've been chomping at the bit for 2 wks now and that would have been truly a bummer. Normally always leave the TV at the same channel, but forgot that I had switched the night before to catch a show. Whew, that was a close one!

Have to admit, I was deliciously delighted that Once Again! Jen/Nate missed coming in First Place. Foiled Again. No prize for you.

I'm still afraid that always showing Jen/Nate being upset that they're never coming in first may only be editing and leading up to finally having them win in the end. I hope not. :-(

I so hope NOT. A Jen/Nate NOOOOOO! TAR couldn't be so cruel to us. We've got so many other teams that actually work together to choose from. AKA Team Work.

Worse! But still the more prizes they do not get the better. I sure enjoy the thought of grandpa and grandson enjoying Mexico than N/J.
