These two started out a bit too frantic and negative for my taste. But they've seemed to settle down a bit and are not as obnoxious as they first appeared. I especially like how they've paired up with the twins and are rejecting the brat packs.

"they strike me as kind, generous, funny and humble. All the characteristics I like in folks."

I couldn't have said it better! I've been enjoying them since the first show and they haven't disappointed me yet.

Okay, I've waited until now to post on these two. They may be the most universally likable team in the history of TAR. They're both funny, genuine, and competitive. They have a strong alliance that could take them far as well. If John V. and Jill can't win, then I hope these two fellas do.

These guys are great and I hope they stick around till the end. But I was disappointed with the "can't tell you" remark when the other team asked where they were going. There were so many other ways to answer that and not look selfish.
- "Same place as you!"
- "Over thatta way"
- "Wherever this taxi takes us"
- "We'll know when we get there"

I understand they didn't want to give advantages to other teams, but they have been so nice so far, this seemed unusual.

Lycanthrope...I am in total agreement with you on your views of Ken & Gerard. I enjoy the opening credits when one trips the other...oh, such little brats they are...still...at their age!!!
You can tell they are so enjoying and grateful for their time together and loving each other unconditionally...whoa, is that rare or what? I loved the remark from one 'If you wimp out I will bite your @ss...' to the other, and then 'look at him...he's RUNNING down that thing...' They're awesome!!!

But...I am in total disagreement with you on the Aaron subject.

But...It's all good.

BTW: who says you can't be an "ugly long haired retard" AND a celebrity, too. Hmmm??? Who says???

These guys seem to have struck the perfect balance between being strong competitors and playing the game fairly. They have identified those hostile to them -without being hostile and having a sense of humour and respect for each other along the way. I won't be at all unhappy to see them win but still am rooting for the twins - they have been streotyped by the teams and many on this board. Is it their fault that they are good-looking and have entered a business where they can make use of that? The fact that they have done so without the usual arrogance that usually accompanies these gifts is somewhat unusual.

So far they are my absolute favs and I am gonna stick to that - for now.

Not1worry, I bet in hindsight they realised that they could have handled *not* telling the others where they were going better. Without the benefit of editing I'd get myself into a lot of trouble here, too.LOL

I just love these guys!! I really thought they were going to stink but they have really pulled it out after the first episode. They seem to be having so much fun and don't get all crazy when things get messed up.

Them finally pulling over to (have someone else) change that flat tire was too funny. It's nice to see them take their bad luck in stride. They thought they were history and were so happy to find out they weren't last to the pit stop. Go baldies!

I love these two. They are always in good spirits and have a good time. Anyone that can laugh when they have a flat tire deserves to win this thing.

My only thought was: why didn't they change the tire? REally, it isn't that hard. I'm a 100 pound weakling and I've changed a tire by myself 2 times. IT didn't seem like it hurt them time-wise too much so maybe that's why they didn't bother.

On the CBS Amazing Race Website, there is a clip of the brothers trying to fix the flat themselves. They couldn't get the spare tire out from under the car. That is why they cheered when the man got the spare out for them.

i think what was funny was the guy knowing they had driven and driven and driven on this poor tire. it was beat to hell!

These two are definitely a couple of my faves. They are so funny together. I wouldn't mind at all if they won.

These two guys are so enjoyable to watch - they are genuinely kind to each other and deal with stress soooooo well! Even the twins, who are pretty pleasant though bland guys snap at each other once in a while.

Ken and Gerard make me feel good.

SM, I'm on the same page as you.

My favourites in the beginning rarely are still the favs toward the end of a show, but the baldies haven't disappointed me so far. These fingers and toes are still crossed for them.LOL But if not them as winners, then at least the twins, who I dismissed as lightweights in the beginning. Shame on me!

I would be worried about the "fourth-place curse" if I were you....Remember, of the final four teams in the past two races, the team that is usually the most popular ends up getting eliminated in the last elimination.

Is it my imagination or does one of these guys look a lot thiner all of a sudden? ( I still don't know which is which).

I agree that these brothers work well together and seem to enjoy each others company.

I like the one that is married and is the thinner one. The other brother turns me off, though. He is obnoxious and I can't stand watching him, sorry!
