Review: The Amazing Race - This Is the Worst Thing I've Ever Done in My Life

08 Nov 2009 22:47:00 PST

Written by Jackie Schnoop
S15E08) This week we revisited one of the toughest roadblocks ever on The Amazing Race. Back in season six, the same farm with the same roadblock did in one team. Kristy and Lena spent eight hours searching for a clue they never did find. Phil Keoghan came out to them after dark in the field and ca...

Review: The Amazing Race - Do it for the Hood! Do it for the Suburbs!

25 Oct 2009 22:34:00 PDT

Written by Jackie Schnoop
S15E06) One of the many things I learned tonight on The Amazing Race is that Dubai is probably hotter than anyplace I really want to visit. Every team was sweating; every team was complaining. At least those teams who didn't have a clue about where the Persian Gulf is or whether it's a country i...

Opinion: The Amazing Race Season 15 – “Episode Six (Dubai)”

25 Oct 2009 18:55:15 PDT

Written by Myles
Every now and then, The Amazing Race turns mean. In most episodes, there is a moment when everything bunches together so that previous mistakes are erased, but in the sixth episode of the show’s fifteenth season throws the teams to the wolves of Dubai in an effort to test both luck and skill i...

Opinion: The Amazing Race Season 15 – “Episode Five (Dubai)”

18 Oct 2009 19:14:31 PDT

Written by Myles
I like to think that this, the fifth episode of The Amazing Race’s fifteenth season, is the reality television equivalent of speed dating. You see, last week, we saw the unfortunate departure of Zev and Justin in the worst of circumstances, the kind of circumstances (a lost passport keepi...

Opinion: CBS promos spoil the sad end of a repetitive Amazing Race episode

11 Oct 2009 22:48:46 PDT

Written by Andy Dehnart
The real insult with The Amazing Race 15's episode wasn't its 42-minute delayed start, but the fact that a preview that aired just before the show started--one that people who actually watch commercials have apparently been seeing for a few days--spoiled which team lost their passport...

Written by Edward
The Amazing Race got off to its best start in years tonight. Even the hokiest-seeming challenges, such as the one that eliminated a team at the starting line, actually tested skills that are important for real-world travel. And even tasks that were entirely "staged" (in one case quite lite...

Opinion: Season Premiere: The Amazing Race Season 15 – “Japan/Vietnam”

27 Sep 2009 21:07:06 PDT

Written by Myles
There’s a point in the 15th Season Premiere of the 7-time Emmy winning The Amazing Race where Sam and Dan (the gay brothers) note that they have a problem: at various point in the race, both of them step up to be the leader and the result is a heated argument in Vietnam and a delayed arrival at th...

How much do I love Team Gay Jesus!?!? Pat said, "We have no illusions that God even cares if win the Amazing Race". Why is it always the gay clergy that has their head on straight? Durgerdam is the pit stop. I'm pretty that name is made up.

This episode was very odd. I didn't care too much for the outcome, as you'll see.But that's not why I found it odd.For the most part, it really didn't move forward so much. Instead of, like the last episode, having some sort of show-planned back-up tickets for a flight, the flight the teams had to...

Each week I'm reminded why I like Oswald and Danny so much. Even when they bicker a bit (like they did tonight), they can be a hoot and deliver some of the best lines in the show.On the other hand, every week I'm reminded more and more why Charla and Mirna irk me so. In my book, Mirna is more irksome th...

Yeah, I know it's purely editing which made the ending so intense, but it could have been either team racing for that Pit Stop eliminated. For all I know, they could have been an hour apart. But that's the magic of TV, right? Nine teams remain. Who will be eliminated tonight?" I noted that Phil sa...

Tyler and James wanted to take the same Detour as Dustin and Kandice, figuring they would go for the physical task - the giant costumes. They figured right. In their minds, they want to beat Dustin and Kandice in a footrace to the Pit Stop. Of course, both of the other teams want to beat the Blonde...

Time is running out for the Amazing Race. With four teams still in the race and two shows left to go, you know it's time for a non-Philimination leg, right? Unlike Survivor, it's a race between the Final Three to the finish, not the Final Four.

The operative word "next" is indeed the operative word this time. But, you can't depend on that always being the case. It used to be there were huge hints whether a leg was a non-elimination or not. Instead of "next," we'd hear "tonight." In the last clue before the Pit Stop, instead of "may be eli...

Amazing Race All Stars or Amazing Race Villains? It could be worse. We could be in for another season of watching Jonathan and Victoria Baker. It would be better if these shows polled the viewers about what teams they'd like to see return if they feel they have to have all "all star" season. Bett...

Finally, the teams go to another country. While I found Vietnam a wonderfully exotic and interesting place, this is supposed to be a race around the world. More than one leg in one country feels sort of like they're stagnating. At least, it does to me.

As the teams took off from the last Pit Stop, a rice paddy in Vietnam, I noticed the gap betwixt first and last place had narrowed in comparison to last week's start. The first team (ChoBros) left at 10:55 PM and the last team (TnT) left at 11:48 - not even an hour apart.
