Yay Hockey Girls! They're so badass. I actually really like most of the teams this year. The french brothers need to stick around forever because there's nothing I love more than a french canadian accent. Those 2 teams along with Mickey & Pete and Alain & Audrey are who I'm pulling for. I like that it's international but I'm also kind of bummed that we won't get to see as much of Canada. There's just no pleasing me. I noticed the greeters this week and last week had little sayings after they welcomed the teams. Tofino was "The end of the road". She said one tonight but I'm old and senile so, even though the show ended like 10 minutes ago, I've already forgotten what it was. The land of something? Does anyone remember if the 1st greeter said something similar? Or am I just looking for things that aren't there because of the flowers last year?

In all fairness, it was only Rex who was doing it. I sent their joint TAR account a message asking for clarification about what Rex meant when he basically said the show was cheating and Bob said that Rex was just frustrated. I don't know that I buy that. I think maybe they got a smackdown from TPTB or they realized that they were only making themselves look bad. In any case, and this is pure speculation on my part - I'm spoiler-free, I think this almost confirms that Rex & Bob don't win. I can't see a winning team being that bitter about how they were edited in episode 2.

I just scrolled through his tweets and I don't quite understand what he's complaining about. They didn't quit and they were really 1st? I'm fairly certain we all saw Bob Hope (hee) tell the world he will never build a chair. Or did we ALL imagine the same thing at the same time? Also, I really dislike him after reading his timeline. The official TAR Canada account sent out a tweet asking what viewers thought of Rex & Bob quitting and Rex has been responding to almost everyone, rudely saying things like: "Have you ever heard of editing?" or "Get a life!" or calling people "bitch". And these are all people who politely responded to a tweet sent out by the official TAR Canada people. Also, he never gives any explanation about how they got screwed over, just keeps repeating that other teams were given a pass and it was all editing.

Wow! Hong Kong! Nice. That sucks about the injury but they were one of the few teams I could stand to lose. Not that there was anything wrong with them, they seem like nice people, but they were one of the least interesting teams (to me) in a cast where I like almost everyone. Even the few people who get on my nerves (the mom and the brother & sister) are still only mildly annoying. How rare is that in a reality show? It will be interesting to see how a group of likeable Canadians does under pressure in Hong Kong. I can't help but root for our hockey girls. 1) Sochi 2) They're badass. 3) Sochi

Hilariously, I do know who Rex Harrington is (I was even at the Gala the night he was inducted into the Walk of Fame) and I still got his name wrong so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that none of the other racers know who he is.

Yay! I forgot how much I love this show. Love the diversity in the cast! Unlike most American reality shows, there's nobody I instantly hate. In fact, the only one who even slightly grates on my nerves so far is the mom in the mom/son duo. Totally pulling for our hockey girls! I thought Mickey and Pete would get on my nerves but I loved them for their shirts. Every team should have to wear those for the first few legs. And do none of the other teams know who Rex Harrison is? Yeah, the tea dude did not look impressed. It makes me cringe whenever Racers do that. Boundaries, people!

And it's officially been cancelled :( Which actually makes me much sadder than I thought it would. This show had so much potential and I really liked the direction they were going in with Jed & John.

Seriously, Luke Mitchell would have chemistry with an empty chair, which only further proves how much Cara's character sucks if even he can't produce any sparks with her. Yes to ALL of this! Thanks for the explanation about why TTP can't kill. Although I'm still confused about how Hillary was able to set off the bomb. I suppose one could argue that technically it was Astrid who did it by calling her but, if it's simply the intention to kill that makes them pass out, shouldn't Hillary have keeled over as soon as she strapped the bomb to her chest? Meh....I need to stop overthinking this show.

I don't fully understand why the Tomorrow People can't kill. Like if Cara was holding a gun and pulled the trigger, would it not fire? Would she instantly drop dead? Maybe someone who paid more attention can explain that to me.

They need to let the Cara and *anybody* thing go. She's one of the least likeable, least charismatic protagonists in any show ever. That was so cruel of them to kill her and then, just as I was rejoicing, PSYCH - she's alive again. Did they ever actually explain how Steven reversed time? When John was saying he had no car and couldn't get out of town, all I could think was: couldn't Cara just teleport him away in like 2 seconds then teleport herself back? And, seriously, why didn't Roger just teleport himself to a hospital? Dummies! If this show gets cancelled, I would totally watch a spin off of just Jed & John. Their scenes are the only ones worth watching anyway.
