2 Weeks and I missed BOTH. this week I was moving, so it's a better excuse, but I can't believe I have missed 2 episodes!

I'm sorry, Michael. I wish I had a way of recording off of TiVo so that I could send you the last episode anyway.

Poor Kevin and Drew. They were just done.

Charla and Mirna are nuts. Why the holy HECK do they insist on speaking with accents when talking to someone who doesn't speak English natively? And what was with the giving the cab driver all their money? They freak out so easily.

I loved the Road Block - it took some observation, some actual thinking. I hope there are more like that.

[JanetMegan]

Well darn it, I saw that coming but there were still teams I would have like to have been out before Kentucky.

I really liked the fish challenge. WDWacky would have freaked out!!

I also can't believe missing the sluebox didn't hurt Dustin and Candice more??

[Carol]

I was happy with the result. Kentucky grates on my nerves. I would have preferred Mirna & Charla or the Guidos to go home first - but I'll survive.

I must have missed something. Weren't they supposed to empty the fish tank? Mirna still had a lot of fish left in her tank when she read the clue.

We really have some good racers!

Go Rob & Amber and Danny & Oswald.

The previews were intriguing.

[JanetMegan]

By the way, am I the only one who can't STAND team Guido?

[NotaGeek]

I was glad Kentucky got the boot. They are nice, but they just don't have IT, ya know. Did anyone else think it was weird that the show got another little person to welcome the racers to the finish line? Did they expect Charla to feel some sort of kindship? WEIRD.

Carol, I think it was really bad editing on the whole fish thing. I thought the same thing, but my room mate said it probably took people a long time do catch those relatively UN-MOVING fish so they couldn't show people actually finishing.

I totally like Rob and Amber. I hate saying that.

[JanetMegan]

Oh man I know what you mean. When I first heard they were going to be on the show I groaned. But they are kicking tail, they work well together, are nice to each other etc!

Carol, whatever else we may agree/disagree on, we ALWAYS seem to be on the same page when it comes to reality T.V.

I was really impressed by Rob and Amber again. Amber really did well with the whole fish thing. (which was pretty hard looking)

I was totally surprised that missing the clue didn't hurt the beauty queens more.

I know we can't stand Charla and Mirna. They are sooo drama! I ahve to mute the TV when they are speaking in a fake accent. We were hoping Kentucky beat them this time. We love Rob and Amber and Kandice and Dustin. They rock. I hope one of the two win this time!!!

I think that "Kentucky" are good people, but they just are not capable of racing with the stronger teams. They always seem to be missing something. So while I would have rather had the Guidos go last night, I am glad Kentucky was put out of their misery. They were kind of painful to watch.

The Guidos are the ones that are nails on a chalkboard for me this year. Myrna and Charla are annoying, but everything the Guidos do and say get on my nerves.

I am not a fan of Rob and Amber, but they are racing beautifully. I do like how they support each other and try to keep themselves focused on the task at hand, rather than worry about the other teams.

My heart is totally with Danny and Oswald. I love them. I love how they talk to each other, and how they try to have integrity while still racing hard.

Nope...your not the only one. Can't stand them, Ian/Teri, or the BQ's. Charla and Myrna - - it's a love/hate issue. Love Romber and Cha-Cha-Cha is really growning on me. While KY was a favorite of my last season, they just don't have it in them to "play" the race. Romber has "playing" the race down to a science. Love how well they work together.

I had to lol twice last night, over Oswald and Danny. First time was as they were going to the car after the roadblock, Oswald asked Danny to please work on more cardio when they got home. Then as they walked up to the mat and saw the ranger standing there with Phil, one of them made the comment that Charla was gonna be in love. I spit pop all over the place with that one.

[Momof2boys]

While Kentucky wasn't my first or second choice to go home (Guido & Charla/Mirna) I didn't feel bad for them at all. Obviously they can't seem to do anything by themselves without the Chos.

I cracked up when Terri was yelling at Mirna at the airport. I give Danielle credit for not flinging a fish at Eric to shut him up.

Oswald & Danny are still my faves followed by Rob & Amber. I have to wonder for next week when the promos said something about elimination or last leg that will have everyone talking . . . to me it implied that Rob/Amber would be last to arrive but DH says I'm just paranoid.

[Carol]

. . . to me it implied that Rob/Amber would be last to arrive but DH says I'm just paranoid.

That's exactly what I thought.

I don't think you're being paranoid, but I have a feeling that if Rob and Amber end up coming in last that this will magically be a non-elimination round. They are just too integral to the competition (and ratings) right now to be eliminated.

I was annoyed that David and Mary went last night, I would have much rathered that Charla and Mirna go--I'm sick of their whining.

[Carol]

Those rounds are predetermined. There are 3 per race.

There is definitely one due. I thought for sure it would be last night.

[c&d]

I'm shocked to say Rob and Amber aren't nearly as annoying to me as they were last time. I still don't like them that much, but there are other teams that are worse.

For example, Mirna and Charla need to be the next 2 off. They are driving me completely crazy.

[Ian]

I'm glad we're not the only ones who CAN'T STAND Charla and Mirna. They get on my last nerve.

Actually DW and I were talking about this on Sunday night ... how in the heck did they qualify as "all stars" anyway??

I have read articles about them where they were tagged as "fan favorites". Now I don't know what they would base that term on, but I never see anyone actively rooting for them. Maybe some people do that quietly because they think they will get blasted for liking them. I know when their initial season started I did root for them somewhat. You have to admire the pluck of a little person trying such a daunting challenge. But it didn't take long for Myrna's whining to make me switch off of supporting them. I'm just glad she isn't hanging all over Phil on the mats like she did her first race. That was hard to watch.
