Put me with Lance and Costa. If my housemate didn't watch the show, I would have stopped watching weeks ago. I *did* stop watching this week. I don't find watching someone screw people over to get ahead entertaining at all. As Lance says, I get enough of that in real life.

i would watch with 11 u/j-type teams. the jonathon/victoria, wil/tara teams made me cringe.
i do not enjoy watching mean and fighting and demeaning people play this game.
i am not putting rob with those outright horrid people, but i could sure go with a program of well-meaning, respectful teams going for the prize.

The group that runs the Emmys had an event last night with a buch of the creative people and some of the former contestants....it was really good, if you don't mind the language (Dennis Miller was hosting, so be warned)...the video is up at

L/A seem to want to hang on to their notority. I have learned "not" to believe them because they contradict themselves.

1. They didn't know R/A until a few days into the race yet shoved her at the start of the race and bragged that he did it.

2. They told the producers they were executive assistants yet they now say they were producers and knew they wouldn't be picked to be on the show if they told TAR that's what they did.

3. They told some of the racers that they gave up smoking a few years ago yet in an interview they said they sneaked their smoking during the race.

4. They switched drivers during the Africa "real driver roadblock" The crew made them switch back. Sould have had a penalty.

5. If they ostracized R/A from the other racers, and they said they did, then they (other racers) only know what L/A told them.

They think R/A have tainted the game forever. How?
I've seen much worse behavior on past seasons of TAR. Season 5 comes to mind. It makes me wonder if they ever watched the show. This one has been tame compared to others. How about the Allison and Donny crossover?

TAR 1 was the only true pure race because it was filmed before 9/11. After that they had to overcome complications for filming.

Really the best thing would have R/A go a week before the show ends so they can hype their wedding for CBS.

I would watch TAR no matter who was on because I enjoy seeing how and why they make their decisions, where they go and the mistakes they make. Yes I cringe when I see a Jonathon but his type will never keep me away from the show.

I must be really bored.. but I just re-watched the last episode before I deleted it and amazingly it was almost 26 minutes into the episode before Gretchen uttered a fresh Oh my god!

Here's my informal tally:

personGretchenRobUchennaJoyceKellyRon
Oh My GOD!711
Oh For God's Sake!3
Oh God31
Thank God1
Let Go Let God1
God1
Jeez1
Goll-lee!1


Gretchen had many more other negative utterances as well..

Both of Joyce's references were about her peace over losing her hair.

Uchenna's OMG was with a big smile as he started rappelling.

I did leave out one "Mamma Mia!" from, you guessed it, Gretchen.

Next week I think I'll have a matrix and check them off as they happen

Oh, Sea! That's too funny! I know when Ron let loose with his "Goll-eeee!" I thought of Gomer Pyle (showing my age here).

Those of you who think it would be a better show without those we love to hate (or just "hate"), just think of how happy we are when the ones we don't like get eliminated! Yippee!!!! (Remember the rejoicing when Jonathan and Victoria got Philiminated?)

But on the other hand, occasionally we have to see someone like Freddy and Kendra win. Ah well, sometimes life is like that . . . (sigh)

We should play bingo! If someone knew how to make a cards w/ different sayings from all the players, we could check them off as they said them -- and the first w/ 5 in a row wins! :-) (A friend of mine did this w/ a college class -- their prof. had all these sayings so they'd secretly play bingo throughout class -- so much for grad. students being "mature"! LOL)

Dont you think it is funny that there is not a spoiler each week as to what team will be sent home. as snewster does w/ survivor. this show it taped all over the world in very public places w/ tv camera on each team.

That is something that amazes me about TAR and about The Apprentice - why is it that Survivor leaks like a sieve with spoilers and TAR and TA manage to keep it under wraps for the most part? Compared to Survivor they have relatively few spoilers.

Of course I like it much better that way. I can't keep myself from reading the spoilers but I hate myself afterward!

Actually Sucks has some interesting spoilers for the rest of the race, especially for tonight..

And then there is the final team spoiler that has been hanging around since week one.

Well I tried to go to www.survivorsucks.com but I can't seem to get on the site. Do I have the wrong url or is it possible the site is down? I'm so pissed off because I love spoilers.

i tried that url too, and got the same thing. I googled real quick and it gave me this http://p085.ezboard.com/bsurvivorsucks and it works ok. I hope I did that right.
