I think the outcome would have been very different if those two hadn't worked together to solve those clues ! I think Tyler and corey were very very bitchy this episode - there was no need for the snide remarks from them or the dancers. I skipped their mat finish as they are just dull and annoy me. Since Bernie and Ashley are out i am really routing for Sherri and Cole as they have become quite likeable and are the least offensive. They play the game well. The others can go do one as i really don't like them !

Hannah , as a Chief Stew who has served on so many boats, is a bad Stew. She just can't manage people, comes across as too entitled and has a very short fuse. I think she managed to insult almost everyone during this episode !

Ditto ! I would like Bernie and Ashley to win - and Sherrie and Cole to come in second. If i were racing i would have chosen the seaweed task as it sounded quicker. I would have also U-Turned a second team as it would have been the fair thing to do as it would give each U-Turned team a fighting chance to survive. As it was it was pretty much a given that Brodie would go out !

I cringed when the couple kissed on he mat as personal displays of affection in public are a strict No No in muslim countries - although since the TV crews are there with them, there was probably a little leeway. Dana was a right b**ch to her guy - i think he shold dump her fast if that is her real personality ! It was a Bond reference - a bit of Thunderball with the white bikini and belt and Goldfinger, i think, with the sharks.

Damn i wanted Tyler and Korey to go because Tyler annoys me ! At least whiney Blair has gone. It is nice to see some new countries being used this season !

I find the teams this season a bit "meh" - none are sticking out as favourites and none are really really bad (i.e Jutin bad). I do like that the tasks seem better than last season - they are the sort that mix up the group placings rather than the first to arrive is the first to leave type tasks that dominated previously.

The show just frustrates me now - i am fed up with Dean getting away with being a lunatic and everyone supporting him ! It isn't funny. If people didn't actually support his delsions, it would make a better comedy. Indulging him just makes the humour fall flat.

I too had to turn the volume right down - it was just too annoying ! Why cn't they talk normally ! I am not hating anyone yet but Blair comes across as a very dumb spoilt girl who can't do anythig without Daddy's help ! She is starting to annoy me more than anyone else. As for a favourite team - i like the educated brothers, even though they have made some stupid mistakes. I like them because they don'tscream and shout like the others - they just get on with it ! They come across as having far more sense and i hope they stop with the stupid mistakes as they could be a very strong team ! I was also suprised at how they were the only fluent Spanish speakers as i thought Spanish was common as a second language to a fir few Americans ? I would have especially thought that the air hostess had a second language as it usually a mandatory requirement ?

I love how just two bags of lime were enough to fill a room ! The amount of water they used would have just diluted it far too much to create anything resembling mortar - plus it doesn't set for hours !! I really wish they would employ a fact checker on the show for the technical / science aspects - it would make it far more believeable ! Most newspapers can afford one so i am sure they could !

Thank Goodness Green didn't win !! If you noticed on the thermal camera image there was a real fireman sitting a few feet away keeping an eye on them the whole time ! I fully agree - he got his just deserts ! He also tried to play that card on the firefighting challenge by saying something like "i'm also from Brooklyn" to his mentor. Why would you say that unless you were trying to gain favour or show off ! I found Justin more bearable this challenge right until he was working side by side with another team - that is when he became obnoxious again ! I was hoping he would mess up on the chairs as they were more focussed on speed than detail !

Very true - he acts like such a spoilt brat and believes he is entitled to first place each time. The sign of a good racer is one who can take loosing well ! He always does that - he believe he is best for every task and only praises Diana if she gets it right first time. I think there have been very few individual tasks in this series and as such Diana seems to do most of them ? I think that if the two ever married a divorce would follow shortly after !

I agree - there is no other way the teams can catch up if the green team already have several hours head start ! Very true. At this point i am routing for the Reporters !

I thought the episode was ok but the fungus thing was a bit OTT - starting with the speed and the instant cure. It also annoyed me that to formulate the cure the only person Cabe could turn too was a little kid ! He just happened to ignore all the doctors hanging around outside because a kid is cleverer than them ! I think the show would be better without Ralph in it as the rest is reasonably believable !

I think this must be one of the most boring series of TAR. Very few of the tasks are those that cause a team to really stumble which helps mix up the pack a bit. I think it may have been done this way to enable superfan Justin to dominate - although i don't think he is as much a superfan as he makes out because if he was he would surely come across more gratefull for being on the show and enjoying the experience. Instead he just seems more concerned about becoming number 1 each leg. I have no problem with regular leg winners but Justin's attitude is so off putting, it really grates on me. As such i am just getting bored with the series.

Did anyone notice that in the mine one of the mine carts had "Reality Show" written on the side !!
