Well that was a good start to the season. I like all the teams (not unusual for Amazing Race Canada). Kenneth and Ryan seem a bit over-the-top intense (generally in a fun way though) and they are going to be hard to beat. Andrea & Ebonie took a big chance taking that penalty but they're still there and they said they won't be doing that again! I'm very happy that the Canadian version is on at 8:00. 10:00 was way too late for the U.S. TAR.

Enjoyed the first episode as well. Canada always seems to have a lot of teams that I want to win.

Did I miss something or did they only show the first few teams solving the Morse Code puzzle? It seemed like a lot of teams were struggling with that challenge and then all of a sudden everyone was flying out west.

LOL - There was kind of an abrupt transition there. If you missed it, I missed it too. I wasn't impressed with Andrea and Ebonie giving up so easily and taking the penalty but they worked hard the rest of the leg and they seemed to realize that they got away with something there.

Not many posts. Just for the sake of concluding, it was a great season. I enjoyed all the teams and I was happy with the results. Another fun thing about the Canadian version is they do an extra hour after-finale discussion with all the teams.

Finally finished watching this and was thrilled Sam and Paul won. It was a very diverse season in every aspect. Where they went, what they did and the team dynamics. Loved that they incorporated the Participaction 150 in tasks. There was no team that was unlikeable, granted Giv'er got a little grating at times they really did Giv'er their all. I love how a lot of them you heard speak said that the Race has had a significant impact on them.

Sadly I read in our local paper that Ken from Team Giv’er died in a hiking accident in BC recently.. https://www.simcoe.com/news-story/9571262-collingwood-native-amazing-race-star-dies-after-800-foot-fall/
