The last installment didn't seem to spark interest here, but I'll create a post anyway, just in case.

We got a team of sistas.
A cute asian chick.
Former NFL cheerleaders
4'9" Stuntmen (brothers).
Mike White!

434223, I will watch Posted by Zeno, Sat Feb-14-09 05:46 PM
Why is this show so midget-centric? Is this a backup plan so A&E will pick it up if CBS cancels it?

That shit had me laughing.
My hope is that they go pretty far in the race, just for comedy, but dude's dad is hurting.
Sista's aint looking too impressive yet. I hope they find their stride.
Mother and son team that came in first is the feel good story, and them lawyers are bring some Azaria & Hendekea type competitive heat to the race, but if I were to pick a winner now, I would go with the stuntmen.

What can I say? Season 14 is officially under way. It's actually pretty crazy to write season 14. I think we’ve really outdone ourselves this time around and also performed some spring-cleaning, if you will. We freshened up the graphics, the music, the maps, and we're letting the show breathe a little more when we have the opportunity to show off the spectacular places that we travel to each week. Maybe a little less airport process and a little more postcard moments.
Love our cast...so diverse and colorful, including our first-ever deaf contestant, a pair of Harvard grads, a carpenter, a jockey, former NFL cheerleaders, a Hollywood screenwriter and even a gay rights activist/minister. Of course, the other big stars of the show are the locations, including first-ever stops in Siberia and Romania. Because we never repeat ourselves by going back to the same locations, we have endless opportunities to keep it fresh. We have tons of drama, adventure and even a few occasions where I was forced to mediate several Mat meltdowns. The Joint Forces in Los Alamitos, Calif. came out in full force to support us with two massive military helicopters. While flying into the start of the race, the teams were treated to a couple of spectacular rainbows. A good sign that we had a golden opportunity to create another Amazing season. As always, the adrenaline started pumping right from the start. The teams have been waiting in anticipation for months or, in the case of Luke, who has been an avid fan since season 1, years. They all have a ton of built-up energy and they're eager to start the race. As I always say, the world is waiting for you. Right out of the starting block our oldest racer, Mel White, suffers a groin injury. Not a great way to start the race, but something tells me he's not going to throw in the jock strap just yet. When it comes to comedy, the Whites are going to be the kings this season. People ask me if I ever grow tired of racing around the world with the teams. But how could I when everything is so unique every time we make the journey. This isn't like going to the same old studio where you can guarantee 69 degrees and perfect weather. Just like the teams, we have to be ready for anything.
Speaking of unpredictable, Switzerland took us to a whole new level of mayhem. You know you're capturing classic television moments when all around you people are yelling out "watch out for the flying cheese." The locals lost it. The teams certainly lost it. And to be perfectly honest with you, no one in production knew what might happen next. Thank goodness for those fences or who knows where those cheese bombs might have ended up.
Personally there are many special moments that I will treasure when I look back on my time hosting The Amazing Race: Gus during season 6 when he pays tribute to his ancestors; Ian from Season 3 remembering his time in Vietnam. But being able to sign to Margie and Luke that they were team #1 on the first leg and knowing how much it meant to him makes this one of those moments I will never forget.

435908, The sistas are struggling Posted by Mageddon, Mon Feb-23-09 11:00 AM
Tammy and Victor are on their game.
I'm looking forward to seeing how they handle a serious fuck up.
|
449478, dang yo Posted by Mageddon, Sun May-03-09 08:05 PM
I guess no one is watching this show anymore, but them sista's finished last because they stopped for a bathroom break on the way to the finish line.

449508, Fuck Victor and Tammy..... Posted by KCPlayer21, Sun May-03-09 09:08 PM
"we think Keisha and Jen can outrun us, so we're gonna u-turn them...." Biggest bitch move of the whole game. I don't even wanna watch the finale now that Kisha and Jen are gone, they are the only team left I was still rooting for. Victor and Tammy get on my nerves, and their u-turn stunt today didn't help, I really hate the deaf boy and his mama, and the ditzy cheerleaders make me sick cause represent everything foreigners hate about Americans. I'll be back next season.....
|
449509, what's wrong with u-turning them? Posted by Mageddon, Sun May-03-09 09:23 PM
never understood why people get pissed when it's used. It's not cheating. It's part of the game.
Personally, I probably would have used it against Luke and Margie, because I think they've performed better, but hey...
I actually want Victor and Tammy to win. Victor was annoying in the early episodes, but after the ordeal when he lead tammy up the wrong path on the hill, he's really mellowed out.
I hate the redheads and their every episode 'cism.

449532, agreed. Posted by SoWhat, Sun May-03-09 11:00 PM
that was a good use of the U-Turn. and J & K would've been fine despite the U-Turn...if only J could've held her bladder. or been willing to pee on herself for a million dollars.
|
449667, I don't have a problem with the U-Turn, either. Posted by kurlyswirl, Mon May-04-09 12:38 PM
Especially at this stage of the race. I probably would've chosen Margie and Luke, too.

450002, One, I hate the U-turn..... Posted by KCPlayer21, Tue May-05-09 11:09 PM
I think its a bitch move any time its used, and I'd really like for them to eliminate it altogether. Beat a team using your strength and smarts, not because you made them have to do an extra task.
That said, even if they did use it, they shoulda used it on Deaf Boy and his mama, cause at the time they were the closest team to them. Kisha and Jen were like an hour or two behind them, and was running in last place, and you make that team do more work? Again I say, bitch move.
I'm actually hoping the dumb cheerleaders win, cause I detest the other two teams just that much.....
|
449531, for a million dollars she should've peed on herself. Posted by SoWhat, Sun May-03-09 10:57 PM
they shouldn't have gone out like that.
|
449534, Jen is so fucking dumb Posted by AZ, Sun May-03-09 11:03 PM
that chick fucked it up for them the last round too because she was afraid of water. how the fuck do you go on amazing race while you can't even get in a pool?
a $1 million is at stake and you're taking time out to go pee? how fucking dumb are you?
they could've knocked out the racist annoying cheerleaders for good and they fucked it up.
|
449535, i bet she's the spoiled one. Posted by SoWhat, Sun May-03-09 11:05 PM
between the two sisters, i mean.
|
449544, yo, it's like... Posted by Mageddon, Sun May-03-09 11:40 PM
you know you're on your way to the pitstop.
you must have seen that the redheads weren't too far off in the food challenge.
hold that shit it, check in at the pitstop, and then take a piss.
i've watched most of the races, and I don't recall there ever being such a massive fuck up.
the swimming pool shit I can get past. some people just aren't cut out for some of the challenges of the race.
but a restroom break?
|
449568, Stopping to Pee when you're this >< close to the pitstop = L Posted by nipsey, Mon May-04-09 07:20 AM
There's no reason for that.

Kisha's a saint.

449666, For a chance at $1 million, I woulda peed myself. Jeez. Posted by kurlyswirl, Mon May-04-09 12:37 PM

I know! It drives me nuts when black folk go on reality shows and mess up because they're afraid of the water. I mean, you know from past seasons there's an excellent chance you'll have to swim, so how 'bout taking some damn swimming lessons beforehand?
>they could've knocked out the racist annoying cheerleaders for >good and they fucked it up.
I'm so annoyed those bitches made it.

449717, Tammy and/or Victor took swimming lessons before the race. Posted by SoWhat, Mon May-04-09 03:20 PM
b/c s/he couldn't swim. it worked out for them.
you're right.
|
450000, Yeah, that pissed me off (no pun intended)..... Posted by KCPlayer21, Tue May-05-09 11:06 PM
piss yourself, cross the finish line, and then go change your pissy clothes. You're that much closer to the $1 million.....
|
449682, I have a bad feeling Posted by Mageddon, Mon May-04-09 01:16 PM
that the redheads are gonna win.
Shades of Flo and Zack.
|
450845, up Posted by Mageddon, Sun May-10-09 06:35 PM
final episode.
Hoping for a Tammy/Victor win.
|
450847, i think i want Tammy and Victor to win. Posted by SoWhat, Sun May-10-09 07:09 PM
i know i don't want the cheerleaders to take it. and i sorta dislike Margie & Luke...probably b/c i feel a certain way about how they talked about Kisha & Jen (even after Kisha apologized and explained herself).
|
450856, aww...at least they all finished classy. Posted by SoWhat, Sun May-10-09 07:53 PM
|
450961, My girl was HOT about Tammy & Victor winning. Posted by spades, Mon May-11-09 11:18 AM
She really wanted it to go to Luke and his mama.
I wasn't mad at them. I for one was VERY impressed at the cheerleaders showing a little teamwork and helping Luke out w/his puzzle.
After them acting like royal bitches the whole show, that was a little redeeming to me.
|
450857, episode was kinda weak, but Posted by Mageddon, Sun May-10-09 08:00 PM
I'm happy with the results.
|
451235, I agree. Posted by kurlyswirl, Tue May-12-09 03:59 PM
It felt rushed, like there should have been another challenge before the surfboard match.
>I'm happy with the results.
Me too. I wasn't in love with any team this season, but Victor and Tammy were the best of three. Margie and Luke turned me off with their antics against Keisha and Jen, and don't get me started on that bitch Jaime.
|
451313, Another great season with a disappointing finish..... Posted by KCPlayer21, Tue May-12-09 10:37 PM
I'd really like them to cast some less assholish teams next season, but it won't happen.....
