So that we don't eat up the Survivor thread with Amazing Race discussion. DISCUSS!!
It's pretty early on, but there are already a few teams I like. I'm obviously on board for James and Abba to win. Natalie and Nadiya are already getting on my nerves. STFU!! I like Gary and Will. They're genuine nice guys that I'd like to see do well. Jaymes and James seem really dense, for some reason. Kelley's all right, Rob's a little irritating. That's all I've come up with thus far, I think.
I was a little irritated that in the 1st episode, Amy and Daniel helped Abbie and Ryan out, then A&R passed them to come in first, though it matters little, since A&D got cut in the 2nd leg.
I never followed this show from the beginning, but apparently it's a hollow shell of its former self. From what I gather it was better in every way, years ago, especially in the area of roadblocks and detours. Now, some of them are fairly mindless tasks. I'd LOVE to see some more action and some more serious challenge at R's and D's. Either way though, I still dig it.
