I remember. I would rush to TWOP to post and see what everyone else thought. It was so fun and exciting to talk about the amazing dances we were seeing, the pairs, the group dances. I didn't care if the dances they did on the show didn't get them cast (although many went to broadway or music videos)- it was still exciting to watch them try the quickstep or krump or something so far out of their wheelhouse. Mia reacting to Kent & Neil doing Shoeless Joe. Seeing Ramalama for the first time. Sabra & Neil doing the Sweet Dreams desk dance. Danny & Lacey killing it in a sexy ballroom number. I could go on and on. I guess all things come to an end but it was so unique & special back then. I miss it!

I hate the new format. I dislike JoJo and I'm so sad that the show I used to love so passionately is now so boring and flat. That was the last episode I will watch. It was nothing like original SYTYCD. Yes that show had problems & biases but I got to see some amazing routines over the years that I still remember & treasure. And that was exciting. This? I had to force myself to watch the routines. I repeat, I miss SYTYCD so much.

I just watched this on HBO and loved it! What a creative, wonderful group it was. Everyone was so supporting of each other, loved the pieces and really enjoyed every episode. A true reality gem.

So very, very tired of the Bhanu Survivor show. But there's too much time yet. We're going to be stuck with him longer aren't we?

I love Jake! I was feeling sad that he was going to be leaving and then whoa! What a fantastic blindside. I started out neutral on Jake but he has grown on me every week. He's such a fun character. Great episode!

I realize that came out wrong but what I was trying to say was have a challenge that anyone can win. Not just women (and Ozzy of course.

Boo! What a disappointing episode. Not only do we lose an interesting, charismatic player but we continue to be stuck with Bruce. Another stupid twist, an immunity challenge that only Ozzy and women can win, sigh. So unhappy. I repeat, boo.

So happy to see Rob and Corey finish the Doll task quickly. I love the wonderful spirit they have. But that balance detour was hard to watch. LOL Browncoat - it really is the new Twinnieee. Hee!

I'm with everyone else posting. A really great first episode after a disappointing Survivor. But since TAR is my fave reality show of all time, I'm not surprised. So many things I loved after the last few seasons which I disliked so much. Airports are back! Woot! I love airport maneuvering. Gross eating challenge is back! Woot! I could not have done that. Sooooo gross. I really loved that you had to earn the Express pass this year. After eating all that, they really deserved it. Difficult challenges are back. Woot! I loved the tightrope walking (saw it on TAR Canada one year and thought this is great. Wish the US did it.) I loved the puzzle though not happy with the clue sharing. And the detour gave us some great moments & comments. I was surprised more people didn't go for the sword play which didn't look that difficult. You had someone to watch the entire time doing it beside you it seemed and the moves weren't that complicated. But most of all: TAR is back! Phil is back! Double woot. I love this show so much.

Oh how I loved having the race back. That was a fun episode. Loved the high wire to start the race. They did that on TAR Canada and the mad scramble to the airport. Love having airports back. That massage looked very painful.

Too bad it wasn't a double elimination but I had a feeling this was probably Pradje's week. And his outfit was so bad. But I am also so over Laurence. She does beautiful leather work but that outfit was horrendous. A bulletproof vest and a pleated kilt with fabric that looked cheap to me. It had nothing to do with peacocking. NOTHING! I know they look at past work but I miss the days when no matter how much of a frontrunner you are, a terrible week meant you are going home. And I'm a big fan of Rami. I loved his look. Granted his model's skin tones didn't help but I thought the concept was beautiful. I've seen Brittni's look before and I'm sorry I all I got was pimp vibes from Bishme's look. Agree with whoever called him Huggy Bear. Spot on. At the end of the day, I have no confidence at all in this judging panel so they are going to do whatever they want. I'm just going to enjoy it as long as I can. Christian is so much fun.

Right there with you. I am soooooooooooooooo over Korto and all her talking heads. Rami is one of the few left that I actually enjoy watching.

I loved this season! I was Team Martin all the way so I'm thrilled. But I really liked Sara too. What a treat to open Roku and find this yesterday. I had to immediately watch the entire season. My only complaint is I wish there were more episodes. The season ended far too early.

I really enjoyed Glenda and Lumumba on this race. They were both like walking rays of sunshine - so much joy in what they were doing and loving & supporting each other so much. I started to get my hopes up they would stay but being so far behind & then a car off the road was just too much to overcome. The views were terrific this episode. I wish though that they would make the tasks harder. They are just so easy compared to TAR Canada's tasks or past TAR US tasks. It just feels dumbed down a little from the early days. Or maybe I've just watched too many international versions of TAR. I want really hard tasks. Come on TAR US - make them work for it.

I agree that the cast is a little bland. I agree with the poster who said they wished we had some villains. I know I enjoyed rooting against the villains & vastly enjoying their eliminations. But still it's the race and I will always love it. I just finished catching up on Canada's Amazing Race Season 10 (what a terrific season and the tasks are soooooo much harder than the American version. I wish they would amp up the difficulty). If we can't have villains, at least make the tasks harder. But having been to Florence, I really enjoyed seeing it again. I'd love to see more Will & Abby and I am enjoying the upbeat attitudes of Glenda & Lumumba - Kudos to the poster who called him Kevin Hart because that's what I think every time I see him. And thank goodness the motivational speakers have gone. I was over them after the first episode.
