Ladytex beat me to Buh Bye, so I'll say Sayonara!! Here's my take on their interview with Julie Chen, which I just watched.
quote:Showing the "race" between M/G and L/A.. Meredith telling Gretchen to stay positive while she scowls and shakes her head negatively, then on the mat with her drawn out ohmygod.. L/A arrving, and bless them they hoped for a non elimination, so you can see Lynn has THREE shirts on!! Alex at least two.. no three.. Ah.. the cabbies did them in.. three palaces.. realized it after 5 minutes. Never gave up hope, but knew it wasn't looking good.. MG 10-15 minutes ahead of them at pitstop. They spent 10 min at the wrong palace. Signed up for the adventure, see the world, meet people, and for the million, don't get me wrong.. Showing them dancing at the wedding, and shows Meredith rocking out! Julie with her ham handed questions, asks "are you guys still together?" what a question! And yes they are. They say they bonded more. Alex says with anyone else he would have been a mess, had the best time ever. Now Julie tells them to get their claws out, which Lynn is only too happy to do and starts on Amberexia (you know.. I don't think Amber looks the least bit anorexic.. she looks healthy and cute.. ) They say yes R/A make good television.. Lynn says yeah Evil comes across ... Alex says watching at home, R/A were really malicious and it was very entertaining.. but when you are there in person it isn't entertaining at all.. Julie says but was it just because it was a race.. Lynn opines that the race is just a race, not about mind games and tricks and "being decievious" (yes that is what he said.. I guess a cross between deceitful and mischievious?) Alex says we were waiting for them to open up at the pit stops but they never did (gee, I wonder why?) they were shut off and cold and .. Lynn breaks in and said all the teams were very close, spend time with all of them, yeah you're there to race, but you're also there to have a good time and there's no need to pull all that (Lynn has gained weight, his jowls quiver a bit as he shakes with indignation) Alex says they actually liked Rob when they first started, they said "who's that guy?" Lynn says, something about to a gay guy he was cute with that butt (lol.. maybe that's why he was keeping his distance? just kidding, but really...) Alex says "totally cute, but we didn't know who they were until we started the race" . Then Julie asks who is more deceitful, Rob or Amber, as racers? Lynn says, "as racers? I think Amber was so concentrated on losing weight at that time I don't think she was really worried about strategy (uh, if they isolated themselves, how do you know what Amber was worried about?) .. it was mostly Rob".. Alex "It was Rob, and Amber just sort of walked, like you know she had no personality..." Julie says you guys did such a great job and it was fun watching you. Lynn says "we had a great time, we loved everyone on the race.. Alex agrees. Julie thanks them for coming on the show.. Aww, as they fade to a commercial for Closet World (LOL), the very un-closeted Lynn reaches over and strokes Alex's head.. They still seem solid as a couple to me.. NO idea why Julie asked if they were still together.. would she ask a committed straight couple this?

It was asked and they are, and actually seemed very together in their interview and are getting married next month. But why ask it of an obviously happy couple. Best not to ask "why" when Julie Chen is the interviewer. Just as "why" Julie (or her writers) thought we actually wanted her to tell Lynn to get his claws out and bash Rob, makes sense to ask, but that's what she did..

I have never seen any of the interviews the day after someone is eliminated from AR, so I am curious if any other couple bashed Rob and Amber as much as Lynn and Alex?

I haven't either, Rvon, good question. In the behind the scenes footage, they showed more of L/A's interview at the pitstop and they were extremely hateful towards R/A. Repeatedly called her Amberexia, said how much they despised them, how anyone could win but them, just low class and not nice people.....there was much hatred towards them.

Good question, Rvon.. and I haven't seen most of them.. I know for sure I saw and reported on Ray and Deana's, but not sure about others. Ray and Deana's was naturally more about their relationship since that was so featured on the show.

OK. I didn't remember Ray/Deana saying anything about Rob/Amber and just checked and I also didn't report it.. so I'd say no, they didn't.

Look in Patrick/Susan's folder, Texannie posted an interview where he said he immediately was upset that Rob and Amber were there at all.. and how much he hates them..

Hate is such a strong word to use for someone you've only seen on TV!

I don't think any of us said we hate any of the teams. I was quoting an interview with L/A and I think Sea was saying that Patrick said he hated R/A.

Oh for sure.. Patrick and Lynn have used the word "hate" about Rob. I don't know any of them well enough to hate them. I dislike some of their actions/statements.

That's what I meant (sorry I wasn't clear): the use of the word "hate" by some of the teams like Alex and Lynn, Patrick and Susan. The ones who keep saying how much they hated Rob and Amber right from the start. I was mainly referring to Sea's comment above about Patrick saying how much he "hates" them (R/A).

No matter how arrogant, over-confident, obnoxious, conceited or whatever anyone feels toward Rob and Amber, it all pales in comparison to the hateful, nasty, jealous mean-spirited attitude that Lynn and Alex own. It is one thing to criticize how Rob and Amber played the game, but to call names (Amberexia sp?)? How childish is that? I would be so ashamed of them if they were related to me. I wish someone would call them on it, but, of course, they will say they were 'just kidding' --NOT! To keep this attitude up after all these months amazes me all the more. Shame on them!

I don't think we have a right to say shame on anyone. No matter what, the reality is that we have no idea how things are edited vs. what really went down...

How they were edited? They acted just as nasty on The Early Show, months later, I might add, still calling names, etc. No, I think I have every right to say shame on them.

Julie, the editing was kind to L/A as far as their feelings for R/A. Have you watched the behind the scenes video from their elimination? WOW, they were both pretty straight forward in their dislike of R/A.

The Early Show interview was done live. I don't see how it was edited to remove all the warm fuzzy stuff that Lynn "must" have said.. I saw that interview. They called Rob/Amber "evil" "malicious" "mind games" "being 'deceivious'" "shut off" "cold" "Amberexia" It all flowed.. can't see where what I saw/heard was edited and that isn't even mentioning the looks on their faces!

I was refering to the show editing being kind. In interviews, L/A were anything but.

I saw some of the behind the scenes. I am not saying A/L are angels. Much of what they said was mean, but I did not think they were any worse than Rob. Let's not forget some words from Rob about Lynn: most ignorant rude jealous needs to grow up.... So if Rob can say those things about Lynn, why is it so bad for Lynn to say his mean words about Rob or Amber?

also, L/A went on about how much they hated R/A, that got to me too. It was the INTENSITY of their dislike that I found disturbing.

Tex, that Rob clip is here: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race7/insider/?chap=8829&cat=9 Then you gotta go to "showdown." Rob spewed some very intense hateful words here. So did A/L but I certainly do not think A/L were worse than Rob.
