yes meemo...apparently, all episodes will rerun Saturdays at 8PM EST (that's the reason for no BB this Saturday, because of the 90 minute ep)

Rvon, just go to the CBS.com homepage. YOu should see a link there. They have clips of stuff you didn't see in the ep...some parting words from the eliminated teams, etc. It's free, but you have to see some commercials.

I have a question regarding the backpacks they carry. I've noticed a few times that time is wasted by waiting for the trunk to be opened(either to put the packs in the trunk or take them out).

My question is: why don't they just take the packs with them in the taxi/car?

Although I didn't like Alison on BB....she is definitely a good athlete and sharp. I think Alison and Donny will win. (if not, Donny will be killed by Alison :>) )

Abby... because they need room for the camera guy and all his equipment. There isn't enough room. I'm not clear on this point, but don't they have a sound guy too?

ROFL abby "if not, Donny will be killed by allison"...That's SO true!

And I have to agree with you, even though I really didn't like Alison AT ALL on BB it is hard not to notice that she is very sharp and has alot of drive. I think they will do well in this because the girl is a very quick thinker and will never ever give up on anything.

right Jan....after this Saturday, the normal sched will be the TAR rerun at 8, and BB at 9.

I also looked at the CBS grid...and apparently there's going to be no non-eliminations until the final three, and then 4 consecutive non-elims...

I have only seen a few shows here and there from the other seasons, but I must say that I love this show.

My fave team so far is Mirna and Charla. I just think the are great. Way too funny and they seem to be enjoying themselves. Loved the blackjack remark and the one she made about people wanting to help "little people" Tha just cracked me up.

Didnt think I could dislike Allison more than I did when she was on BB, but I can. Dont know why, but she just makes me all irritated.

Its gonna be a good season.

I don't like they are having all the non elim in a row at the end.

Alison's voice is like nails on a chalkboard, I had forgotten how much I disliked her.

Thanks Ladybug - at first I couldn't figure out what was different and then when I did I thought I was the only one who noticed Ali has a different nose this year - perhaps teeth as well. Maybe she's planning on making TV her full time thing.

Totally Dahli, thIn my opinion, that is a nosejob nose. I have a few friends that have had their noses done and that is the nose job profile.

The only team I don't care for so far are the two brothers. Hopefully it's the editing but I just don't care for their flippant remarks - especially what's shown in the preview for next week where one makes a comment about "foreigners". I guess they'll have to be my villains for now, lol.

I hadn't noticed the nosejob. Guess I'll have to pay closer attention. If I had won $100,000 at her age and was as vain about my looks as she displayed last summer, I'd probably have had it done too. But then I was never quite that vain so I really can't relate.

Abby ~ I had the same question about the backpacks so thanks, Kep, for the explanation. That makes sense.

It's funny but I always forget that there is a camera operator with them at all times. It must be hard on the camera guy not to get involved if he likes the team and sees them making mistakes.

I am not liking the father/daughter team. The daughter specifically---she was more concerned about the race than her father's leg and then the poor injuried man had to carry the heavy beef while his young uninjuried daughter urged him on.

Well we watched it a second time. The brothers (who I didn’t like much initially) were actually pretty nice on certain occasions. For example, they helped Chip and Kim out by suggesting they call for a taxi instead of run to the taxi stand.

I agree about the Father / daughter team. The two “bowling mothers” are surprisingly good at the game. They had no problem with the beef.

Donny and Alison are good at this game. Alison realised right away that they had missed a clue and then they went back for it. They are going to be tough.

Rerun of the debut show is listed on my cable guide as being on tonight on the OLN,(outdoor network) for those Canadian viewers who may have missed it. I think it is on at 9:30 (paper TV guide show 9 but Cable TV guide online shows 9:30)

Alison didn't learn anything from watching herself on BB, did she? She is a sharp player but her tongue is even sharper! And Donny just takes it. I can't believe they are still together.

I wanted to add a few more 's worth here . . .

1) Why can't this show be on twice a week instead of BB. You know they have the footage for it and I just LOVE this show! It is so great to watch when you're on a treadmill because you just go and go (as you watch them) and before you know it, you've done 3 miles easy.

2) I really wanted to root for Mirna and Charla but the "Charla hurry up!" and "Charla stop!" and the whiny pleading in their voices is getting old really quick for me. Hopefully, like again with the brothers, it's all just in the editing as I really like the teams so far this year.

3) Loved that hotel they're staying at! I kept waiting for someone to stop and go "OMG, how COOL is this place?!" That's where I would be losing time in this race - stopping constantly and going "cool - look at that - Oh wow - did you see that?!"

4) I was kind of hesitant about # of 'pretty' teams before this all began because of certain 'pretty' teams in past seasons. But with the exception of Ali & Don (who aren't even "pretty" compared to these others) I have to say that I think all of the 'pretty' teams are very down-to-earth and so far without attitudes.

5) I did not care for hearing Ali make a comment about seeing "the midget". Surely she knows her name and could have used it.

6) Happy to see the Bowling Moms and the married couple doing so well! I'm rooting for them both.

7) I like the 'twist' that the first plane taking off was not necessarily the best plane to take. It means it will take more then just being able to run the fastest to the counter to be ahead - at least in a few small ways throughout the race. Just like really reading the clues and making sure they've covered all the bases is going to be important.

I love this show!

DH asked about what it would be like if he and I did AR. He's 41 and I'm turning 40 in September. I told him I would do it, but he had to carry my "box-o-wine" and carton of cigarettes.

Now, where is that application????
