I am not even going to acknowledge the winners. If there was one person I did not want to win it was her. <SY>

Was that returned POW Ron Young that I saw in the previews for TAR???? I can't believe it! If so, I know which team I am cheering for! I wonder who he is teaming up with.

Needless to say, we share people’s disappointment at the outcome of this season (to put it politely).

What I honestly don’t understand is what the Producers are thinking. Not only did they appear to make no attempt to edit Kendra favourably, they went out of their way at the start of the show to highlight all the remarks that she made that had infuriated fans previously. My wife was absolutely positive that Kendra could not be the winner because they edited her so negatively. I just don’t get what the show’s producers are thinking.

What a frustrating show (by the way we’ll be watching next season anyway – it’s still better than most of the dreck that is on TV).

What a disappointing ending. I would have been happier with any of the other final four teams winning, although I was *really* rooting for Kris and Jon. Kendra is just unpleasant. Oh well. Last season my favorite team won. This time...well, at least Jonathan and Victoria didn't win! :-) That's about all the good I can say of Freddy and Kendra winning, though.

I agree that Kris and Jon were further behind than editing indicated. They would have lost with or without the train.

It's kind of funny that American Airlines, a sponsor of the show, made the fan favorites lose. Kris and Jon should have verified the information, but they *did* ask if there was any earlier flight on other airlines.

Adam's behavior to the airline employee was obnoxious. She tried really hard to get them on the flight, and then he resorted to namecalling by calling her "mean" (really immature, not to mention pointless).

Hayden also got on my nerves a bit tonight. She doesn't handle stress well at all. She's lucky to have Aaron, IMO. Most guys would have been completely fed up with her at the end of that leg -- not proposing!

Not thrilled with Rob and Amber racing. They're just not that interesting to me (Amber particularly, but Rob is kind of boring with her, too), and no doubt we'll see a lot of them in the next season. Oh well. Hopefully we'll have better winners at the end of it.

Kendra made me queasy when, driving through Africa, she said, "They just keep breeding!" Like they were animals or something who didn't deserve to live if they didn't have TVs and swimming pools.

Well, definitely disappointing. Out of the F4, this was the only team I really, really, really did not want to see win.

Last season, one of the most likable teams won. This season, one of the least likable. I guess it all balances out.

Dang dang dang it!! I honestly thought at the end there that the taxi Gods were going to keep F&K from winning for all the times that they stiffed taxi drivers in foreign countries but it wasn't to be.

"Worthy of having my children"? Ayee, it's one thing to raise your children to have confidence in themselves but yet another to raise them to feel truly superior to most everyone else in the world.

What a difference in these couples. Kris and Jon once again showed what class and grace they have. That's true love when you can enjoy kissing each other while waiting for a train knowing you're coming in 2nd place. I think we all know exactly how Kendra and Freddy would have reacted in the same circumstances. Kris and Jon are the real winners in life!

I think it is totally obnoxious to reward degregation of humans with $1,000,000.00. The producers should have edited that out.

I love Amazing Race. I think it is the best reality show there is, but I'm off to write CBS a letter with my disappointment. Not that Kendra and Freddie won......that they showed them being rewarded after being totally racist.....out and out right racism. My heart is sad with this result.

When Adam called the ticket lady "mean", I almost expected him to stick his tongue out at her!

I don't understand Kimmy ---what do you wish CBS would have done? Not show us Kendra's detestable behavior?

I feel bad for poor Adam. I really like him. Maybe he and that woman he was traveling with will be done after tonight's show. He's a sweet man.

To be honest Chieko, yes. I wished they had edited it out KNOWING she was going to be rewarded with the million. I think it is detestable showing those kind of remarks are being rewarded. They edit out good behaviour.....why not edit out the bad. I understand that they feel that we should KNOW what she is really like, but honestly, it really saddens my heart to see someone like that winning. Yes, I know this is the REAL world, but I just wished they would have chosen not to show that, knowing the results. I'm awful at putting into words what I want to get out. I'm sorry.

I'm totally bummed that Jon and Kris didn't win either. :-( I'm still trying to figure out how they ended up so far behind getting to the pizza parlor. I must be too tired to remember!

Well, while I'm sort of tired of seeing recycled reality show people (Amber/Rob) I'm really looking forward to seeing Ron Young do the race. I'm definitely rooting for him! I too, wonder who is partner is.

I also agree, Kris & Jon are the real winners of that race and life. What an awesome couple. I thought they'd blow it at the clothing factory and they moved into first place. I'm really in awe of them. :-)

And that's another point of contention with me. Why on Earth are Amber and Rob.....given one of the prime spots on another show? They won $1.1 million......now CBS has to give them a chance at more taking that chance away from two others?? I'm really confused with this all. Amazing Race has always always been my favorite. I have cheered them on when no one else was.....but this season has totally made me sad. And I won't go into the whole Jonathon thing.....

Amber and Rob? I hope they last as long as BB's Allison and Donny.

Now that it is over I can say that I would have liked Adam and Rebecca to win. I just felt sorry for them cause they never seemed to be lucky enough to get very far ahead, they had to work hard for their 3rd place win. At the end of the show his little horns were really rigid. LOL

Ugh. I am SOOOOOO bitter right now. I was in a bad mood tonight, and now THEY, of all people, win. Ugh.

Let's hope they/she doesn't "keep BREEDING".

I shouldn't have put the TV on tonight. I resisted coming in here to read who won...waited to watch the whole thing, and THIS is the reward I get?

I want to throw up.

I don't think CBS "rewarded" anyone for negative or racist behavior. Freddie and Kendra won the race which is why they got the million. Like them or not (I'm in the not line), they earned that win, just as any of the other teams would have had they finished first.

Also, not showing certain aspects of the winner, because it will make them look bad or send the wrong the message, is hipocrosy to me. I think the public is smart enough to know the truth about Kendra without coming to the conclusion that she won because she made racist remarks.

I too hope Rob/Amber get eliminated early...*sighs*... my favorite show tainted...AGAIN....
