I still little trouble remembering which is Colin and which is Brandon. Brandon's the guy with the funky blonde curls, right?

Also, I've noticed that they focus on certain teams more than others. You see a lot more of Colin/Christie, Brandon/Nicole, and Charla/Mirna than the rest of the teams. At least that's what it seems like to me.

Yeah, Brandon has the hair, and he's the God one. :P

They definitely focus on some teams more than others. Charla/Mirna and Colin/Christie I would say get the most airtime. Not that I'm complaining. Charla and Mirna are so great to watch! :D

They focuse on Charla/Mirna and Colin/Christie because they are the teams which fight amongst each other and with other teams. It's more entertainment.

My favourite teams are the Models, Bowling Moms and the Married Parents. I don't know the names yet :oops:

******SPOILER****** Don't read it if you haven't watched the most recent one yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You've been warned..



*Waves byebye to Mirna and Charla* I can't really say that I'm sad to see them go. But I would've much rather have seen like the twins or that one horrible aggrivating couple go. Whatever the heck their names are.. I don't care.. they're buttheads.

I mean come on.. that should NOT have counted when that guy was puking up those eggs. I mean kinda the point of that little event was to eat all of that egg... so the point sorta goes away when you're throwing it all up after a few bites... I dunno... hope that made sense... probably not though heh.
Ugh.. what a wussy. I can't stand those 2... I really do hope he gets thrown into jail in the next episode and everyone else gets ahead of them. But next episode will probably be another one of those where noone gets kicked off.
I would've kicked butt with those eggs. I love eggs and would've wolfed it down no problem.

And I could not believe how stupid the twins and the models were during that bus ride. Uh DDDDUUUUHH. Come on.. $100?? Whatever.. I wouldn't gotten off of that freaking bus so fast and found another one. How dumb were they to even pay that much???
Also frustrating and makes me angry that that bus driver did charge that much as well.. Greedy @!!!#$%%^ :x

Ahh, twas unfortunate that the two had to leave. But did any one else notice Phil's (host) voice have that little twinge after Charla's emotional speech? 0=P

I don't recall ever seeing him actually chuck the eggs out. But if he did, definitely he should not have been able to get past that point at all. But, i'm assuming that he didn't upchuck anything.

(Anyone knows what happened to the whole 'YIELD' thing? Remember the first episode)

In any case... second amazing racer to get detained by the police next week ;)

Wed Aug 18, 2004 1:35 pm

With those 2 gone the show lost some excitement. I was hoping the bowling moms would be last. I don't like them for some reason.

Wed Aug 18, 2004 4:58 pm

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: Why Charla and Mirna?! Why? Why? Why?

They added SO much excitement to the race, and they were awesome players. Now they're gone.

Those eggs... ugh. 24 chicken eggs? I would be puking also.

And that bus thing WAS insane... $100 for that, and then he wanted $10 more. I was loving how the twins handled this though. 'Jump out the window!' :roflol: They truely are clueless.

Of course we didn't see him puke it up.. it's CBS.. they can't show it.
But that big green bucket was beside him for a reason.... and he did use it. You could tell his gagging wasn't just gagging.. stuff was gonna come up with it.

I found it amusing that Brandon and Nicole had to pay $100 for the bus, and Charla and Mirna only paid $3.

It was a real surprise when we heard that they were eliminated, we thought it would be non-elimination because Phil didn't say "The last team to arrive will be eliminated from the race." I was glad that Chip and Kim came in first, though. They're nice.

You kinda summed what what I wanted to say, but I want to add a few more things. First, the alliances. It really heated up the episode. It was rivalry at its best. The "mystery location" was interesting too.

I thought it was odd nobody chose Buzzin, because it seemed to be the faster activity.

My friend said that Phil cried along with Charla too. :cry: I'm gonna miss them.

Yeah, like Chip said 'There's a Mirna Camp, and a Colin Camp it's like the clash of the Titans.'

But did anyone else find Colin and Christie's behavior to be sort of immature? 'If you don't join us, we won't tell you anthing!!' o_O Kinda reminded me of middle/elementary school.

Phil did get a little teary eyed :( Im really gonna miss Charla and Mirna. They were by FAR my favorite team.

I hate them.

-hates CBS and all it's affiliates (except if it's somehow linked to Neopets)-

They played the non-elimination music. :cry: And they stopped it at the last minute.

Now I just want Chip and Kim to win because Brandon and whatever-her-name-is are way too religious, Colin and Christie are just annoying, the Bowling Moms are too scary, and Kami and Karli are just little :x.

Sun Aug 22, 2004 1:00 am

I miss Charla and Mirna. I loved them and I wanted them, Brandon's team, Bowling Moms and Chip's team to win. I can't wait for the next installement of Amazing Race, I love this show :D

Colin gets thrown in jail apparently next episode. And brandon gets into a fight with his girlfriend.

How could they all win? o_O heh

I just re-watched it (they rerun it every Sat. at 8), even though I have it taped. This is absolutely my all time favorite tv show. I've only missed maybe 2 episodes in all 5 seasons.

Now I guess I'm rooting for the Bowling Moms.

It's because they were white. If you notice, the black couple (What were their names again????) got away with a really low price. And god, people are dumb...I would've just shut up and given them the money, I mean, they might have been shot or something...

*Offtopic* In New York, if you need to board a ship, you get charged $6 extra for each piece of luggage (Because the mafia runs it all!) , and if you don't pay they throw your luggage in the water. *Nods*
