Title: Re: The Amazing Race: Sixth Season Post by need4speed8dalejr on Nov 19th, 2004, 6:23am 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!! [smiley=afro.gif] |

Title: Re: The Amazing Race: Sixth Season Post by need4speed8dalejr on Nov 24th, 2004, 7:00am Just who was the Rocket Scientist that chose these people for the Sixth Season?[smiley=stars.gif] 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!!! |

Title: Re: The Amazing Race: Sixth Season Post by Paloma on Nov 28th, 2004, 3:07pm I think it is too early to judge the contestants though I have to agree that most of them are really used their mouth more than their brains. Meredith 26 & Maria 26(Queens NY-Best friends), it seems that they were not racing, and really wanted to be eliminated, both of them are so slow. I kinda like the old couple. I will see how far they can go with this race. |

Ok...so Meredith & Maria was the last team to arrive at the Pit Stop and they got eliminated last week. As Mymy said, they just didn't have a sense of urgency or went from point to point with any thought or plan. But hey, they were on vacation Ehh. LOL ;D I would of thought that Meredith & Maria would of put on top of their "To Do" list, to learn how to drive a manual transmission. Eeeecckkk!! I guess they just didn't think things through. Just like the team...(I think it was the "HellBoy" couple) that filled up their SUV with Gas, and didn't even think or remember that most of the World uses Diesel. It was even clearly printed on a sticker inside the flap to the gas cap. I mean...this happened to a team in a previous season...didn't they learn anything from that?? Ugghh...sooo silly. I really hope this week that one of the "Loud" teams get the boot, I know I can go without all the drama and the useless shouting. And you know what the sad part is....when they do get eliminated, they always start to cry..saying how proud they are of their partner..and that they couldn't have done it without them. Such Bull!! Why didn't they show some respect for them before, and stop all the nagging and shouting, then maybe you would of been faster and not been eliminated! Ugghh. I am with you Mymy..I already am starting to "cheer" for them too. |

wow...can't believe Lena and Kristy got eliminated, they are the most competitive team in this race. Too bad. Too early for them to be eliminated. How I hate Jonathan, Victoria's husband. I hope she divorce him after the race whether they win or got eliminated. My fave team is still the old couple. |

Title: Re: The Amazing Race: Sixth Season Post by need4speed8dalejr on Dec 8th, 2004, 9:32am So Lena and Kristy got the "Boot" in the last episode. Ohh well. My only comment about the "Unroll The Hay Bale" roadblock that caused them to get eliminated was that sometimes it all comes down to the luck of the draw. I couldn't help but to think of Season 5, when I think it was the two brothers who encountered a similar Roadblock. The one where one of them had to bite into chocolates to find a select few that had white filling to receive their next clue. That was purly the luck of the draw if you found it quick...or wasted all day spitting chocolate or unrolling Hay Bales. I gotta hand it to her....she didn't give up. She unrolled...and unrolled...lol...poor lass. And again with shades of Season 5 last year, Phil had to go out to a Roadblock to give the bad news that the team had been eliminated. I can however say that the teams are starting to Gel and get the hang of things...lol...I only hope some of those couples don't kill each other before the end of the Season. After....knock yourself out. [smiley=afro.gif] |

Title: Re: The Amazing Race: Sixth Season Post by need4speed8dalejr on Dec 8th, 2004, 9:47am Here is what my Satellite Guide divulged about this week's Episode... I will be posting this info on the day the next episode airs...and I hope it doesn't spoil anything for the Gang. I just think what the Network writes teases without giving away the outcome. |

Ok, so Don & Mary came in last in this leg of the Race, but were not eliminated because that leg was one of the "Non-Elimination" legs. They were stripped of all of their money from Phil on the spot, and will not receive any money for the next leg. This is going to be a tough tough thing to overcome. They are deep in Africa where the population has little or no money. I just don't see them making it unless they can get a few tourists to give them some money. But whatever happens...it will be interesting to watch. |

Title: Re: The Amazing Race: Sixth Season Post by Need4Speed8DaleJr on Jan 12th, 2005, 11:30pm Ok..Last week.. Bolo & Lori went from last to first using one of the two "Fast- Forwards" in the entire race. They had to each drink a glass of Pig Blood and they did it with ease. Dang...lol. I was really pulling for them not to be eliminated. They are fun to watch and strangely enough, they are one of the calmer couples on this season's race. They rarely bicker, and never fight, unlike everyone else. Hera & Gus were eliminated when they arrived last. I could see this coming. They are just too slow. No sense of Urgency with this team. Now all the teams that are left are faster ones. Young and nimble. The Race should start to get pretty intense from here to the End. I can see that this Season they are spending alot of time in Europe. I guess because they have been everywhere else in past season's on The Amazing Race. However...I love it. Someday...I would love to Travel and visit some of the spots they have been to on the Show. Ahhh...Someday. |
