They have already traveled to six Continents and believe that their combined travel experiences will make them successful contenders in the Race.

I am afraid I am with the Majority of the Gang here. I was a little too busy in opening this thread while the first Episode of AR6 was playing, and I too missed most of it.
I will watch the replay of the first episode. It re-airs...(I Hope ) Sunday night on "The Outdoor Channel".
I do know who was Eliminated...HOWEVER...I will not post about it until early next week to try to give everyone a chance to catch the re-run.
Cool-E-OOo!!

Just who was the Rocket Scientist that chose these people for the Sixth Season?
For the most part these people are nothing but loud, dim-witted, arrogant, selfish, emotionally disturbed, childish, pompous people with little or no self-respect...and even less of a clue of just what the World is like. Or that 75% of the people they will meet have a better education than them, and are not really laughing with them...but at them! Ohhh...never was there a better example of the "Emperor's New Clothes".
In all honesty, in previous seasons of The AR, I was riveted by players who were smart, skillfull, and who used their brain more than their mouths. They would be thinking a few steps ahead in the Race, and to use The Keymaker's" motto in The Matrix Reloaded..."Another way...Always another way". How I long for those days once again. Of focus, and cunning and pure competition.
Maybe that's what kept me glued to the TV each week, eagerly watching each teams planning and mistakes, the fact that for the most part..each team was smart, and I could relate to them and match wits each week.
But now that the smartest person in the game is Phil Keoghan the host of AR6, things look mighty slim that any real "Geniuses" will suddenly drop their capes and start to do some long division anytime soon.
The intellectual factor was the main reason IMHO why this reality series was better then most, but this seaon the Producers really picked all the losers who would be much better on "Fear Factor" than on The AR.
Maybe I am being a little hasty. Maybe this is just the cull of the weak, and in a few weeks when the stronger teams get the hang of it, then the Race will be on for real, but I am not holding my breath waiting for that one.
And to make matters worst, the teams that are being Eliminated now, are the teams that seem to be the calmer, more "brainy" less brawn couples. Which just drives me up the wall. I HATE some of those dumbazzes that are still in the Race!!!
