Gorgeous photos.

I was shocked at how good looking BJ and Tyler are in the photos on the plane.

Freshly bathed, not hot & sweaty from running around doing Road Blocks & Detours. And still having a good time.

BJ and Tyler have a real presence on television. They seem to have a natural flair for improvising and having fun -- naturally fun to watch. They take situations that are dull and make them funny.

I don't normally think of the AR as a talent show, but I think these two are very talented and have lots of potential.

I look at Phil's pix every week -- although his diary and blog haven't been updated in awhile. LOL at Hippy's hat (which one is BJ and which one Tyler??)

I'm enjoying watching them (and most of the other teams for that matter). Good season!

Tyler is the red head! Easy to remember as my great nephew T(a)ylor is red headed as well!

Okay... just finished Disc 2 of Season One of TAR. The Guidos are killing me with their obnoxious attitude. This disc had them at the airport blocking the entrance to the gate for the other passengers.

I'm loving the fraternity brothers, the lawyers and the mom and daughter team...

LOL I liked the Guidos. It was funny how stirred up they got the others.
Thanks Wilson about the time change. I would have just thought it got preempted and missed it wed.
I did not like the family version of TAR and only lasted about 4 episodes. I did miss one TAR this season. I went to a last minute hockey game and didnt get a chance to set the DVD recorder. I noticed it didnt bother me to miss it like it would have the seasons before the family version. I would have stressed the whole night. It is like they lost me a bit with the family version. It isnt taking much to get me back. The show is so exciting. later!!

Lexie, I just finished Disc 2 as well. The Guido's sure made GREAT villians -- the kind you really love to hate and can't wait to see their downfall. Lake is such a weak villian this season in comparison.

Did you listen to the commentary by Rob/Brennan and the Guidos on the last ep? It was kind of entertaining. Brennan was complaining that Rob got all the sound bites and camera time because Brennan was off doing the work.

I tried watching with the commentary on Disc One and had to turn it off - it was way too distracting.

What gets me about The Guidos is I don't think they are as good a team as they think they are. They always seem surprised when they don't arrive at the Pit Stop in first place. Jeeeze... they came in 4th place in France and they had the upper hand on every other team in the race. I can't believe I am saying this, but they kinda remind me of the Weavers from the Family Show - the way they have isolated themselves from the rest of the pack.

So Brenda - who are your favorites from Season One?

I found I have to watch the episode without the commentary first because you can't hear the regular show with the commentary one. So, yes, it is very distracting and requires a second viewing.

I also found that the 2nd and 3rd eps on disc 2 didn't have any "side trips". Not that I found most of them that interesting, but I was wondering if my disc was just hosed.

I assume you didn't listen to the commentary on ep 1 disc 1? It was Drew and what's his name (oh why can't I remember?) along with the couple that just came in last during the non-elim leg. The commentary had one interesting tidbit from Drew and friend: On one of their jet rides there was no bathroom. You can clearly see one of the guys carrying two bottles of yellow liquid off the plane. LOL.

It's hard to remember who my favorites where when I originally watched it and it's hard to pick favorites when I know how it turns out. I like Drew and friend a lot. They are entertaining and playing a good game. I like Brennan and Rob too. I like Margarite, but am not too fond of Frank. I like the mom/daughter as well. The Guidos are SO arrogant. I just can't stand their attitude.

I wish they'd release all seasons on DVD!

Kevin and Drew are legendary! I kind of liked the Guidos because they were so darn arrogant. They were good but arrogance can be a downfall. Kind of fun to watch.

Whoa! After going to that jaunted website, I'm going to be watching the race with a different pair of glasses. Definately makes an interesting point about E/J "trying too hard" to be playboys/casanovas.

Okay, I'm officially grossed out. A little bit of "too much information" for my taste!

But I was warned...LOL!

I think they are just kids being kids and playing around!

I don't think there are many gay guys in their age group that aren't out. Certainly I can't imagine FOUR of them!! So I think this is just a big PUT-ON!!

Normally, I think it is a great family show. Even with the antics I still prefer my kids watch it rather than some other stuff. I can always explain it to them.

My understanding is that this is permanent for the rest of the season. We are happy about this move too.

Who are George and Freddy?

Yes, it just wasn't Tuesday without the Race. Wednesday nights are difficult because of church activities. Oh well, who needs to sleep?
