Oops...that's what I meant to say. Also, driving in Philly (especially center city) is a challenge with all the one way streets...so once back over the bridge, it wasn't simple to head back to South Philly.

As a born-and-raised Philadelphian....I was so happy to see my hometown as the final destination. I worked for many years in the center of the historic area....and it was a great experience. The guard at the stadium had to be a transplant from the west coast. Anyone raised even remotely close to Philly has to be aware of Pat's/Geno's location. I think others have mentioned that you only pay the bridge toll traveling into NJ...so Juan/Shane would not have had a lot of advance notice that they were on a bridge approach. Once you see the signs overhead giving exiting directions....it's too late to do anything. They were such good sports about their mistake, though. Yes, visit Philly...in addition to the sites included in TAR...there are more museums, beautiful neighborhoods, and actually good spots to eat. And......you have the opportunity year round to watch pro football, baseball, ice hockey, basketball or soccer.

Actually, they were supposed to drive across the Andes (inland) towards Argentina...and instead drove north for hours. When they saw the Pacific Ocean on their left...they knew they were done.

I was hoping to see Foil Arms and Hog somewhere along the line in Dublin. Have no idea if they were out of the country on tour or not....but had my fingers crossed. Nope.

If there is someone to sign safety instructions (which would not be necessary at some of the challenges), I would assume that person was hired to be on hand throughout the Race. Rob may not have been aware that there was someone was there all the way through...if he only saw them a few times. Very happy with the final 3. Been a long time since I've been able to say that.

Calder's involvement with a possible suspect was funny yet really dumb. And she knew it. I didn't realize that the older woman was the one with the sheep "attacks" -- until I read it above. Thanks. The Bains must have hundreds of secrets, lol. I enjoyed the episode. Tosh is showing her top skills now.

No matter how evil Granny Bains is, she will never top Donna Killick.

Actually, they forgot to attach the dragon's tail....and had to have it rechecked by the Dragonmaster.

Dockweiler was on borrowed time in prison. It was noted that he refused to join any gang for protection (i.e. Aryan Bros)..."like he had a death wish." Of course, not sure with his criminal history even the Aryan Bros. would have accepted him, lol. Borders would have arranged the hotshot for favors (Bosch getting the guards to let him have a cell phone, drugs, etc.). Even if the call was recorded....Borders was implicating himself, too. None of the guards would ever admit their part in any scheme...so it would come down to Borders word vs Harry's.

Really enjoyed this episode. Challenges that were tough....but not ridiculously so. I would have chosen the dolls simply because it sounded like it was within my skill set. The dancing was simple choreography .... but balancing the bowls made it frustrating for so many of them.

Bele was and always will be a liar who blames everything on others, never holding herself accountable. Her rant at Lady Hume rang totally hollow to me, Yes, the Tories brought about many of the cuts in spending for the public services sector which caused major issues for the homeless, downtrodden, etc. However, she caused so many of own problems, the sanctimonious act was a farce. After blaming Lord Hume for her daughter and grandson's death, she found out that they were indeed accidental death and suicide. Lord Hume had many things to be ashamed of....just not the specific "crimes" Bele held against him. I don't for one minute believe that having vodka poured down her throat brought about instant alcoholism. She will find a way to further destroy Jay's life, too.

I'm so glad that the teams -- so far -- are all pretty likable. I have favorites, but I don't actively want any of them to fail. The teams that were eliminated were good sports...and genuinely seemed to be thrilled just to compete. Of course, when killer fatigue starts to hit them, I'm sue some negativity will surface.

Really enjoyed the premiere....the extra 30 minutes allowed for learning more about each time than past seasons. I can't say any of the teams annoyed me, and some were very pleasant. I have a bias...I am rooting for Andrea and Melaina. They live in Philly....where I was born and raised. Really impressed by: Anna Leigh zipping across the wire and Rob rocking the word puzzle. The Philly women were smart to pass on the bug eating...they were never going to beat the women already there. I got the word puzzle - City of Angels after about 5 minutes - but rejected it because (in my mind) they were already in the only City of Angles I know, lol.

I haven't seen Entrapped....but loved the two series i did watch. The atmosphere and mood were intense particularly in the first series.

The Andalusian flag was definitely different than the others...and not just the color. Plus, as others have said, they had seen it earlier. I suspect it's flown in multiple places around the city...not just carried by that tour guide.
