Right. And she was the one who flunked the VR test. Elissa answered correctly even though Rachel insisted she (herself) got everything right.

And one that was basically an hour long commercial.

This repeat reminds me why I don’t miss Abby.

Especially since we fans know the tasks he's referring to -- the melons, the haystacks, the sand castles. That reminds me of something I was wondering about. When the racers left the airport in Dubai it was like a stampeding herd of buffalo, pushing and shoving other travelers. It was terrible. But anyway, I wonder if they were directed to marked cabs. Both all female teams had a female driver. Was this on purpose? Are there female cab drivers in Dubai? Or maybe production hired two female relatives of male cab drivers just for this purpose? And maybe these ladies didn't know how to get around the city as well as their male counterparts? Just curious. (Edited to add that it occurs to me that the female teams had (probably) male crew with them, so driving women wouldn't have been a cultural issue.)

And yet Allison expressed her opinion without spoiling anything.

But she hates identity politics!

There is something about those T Rex costumes that amuses me no end, so when I first saw them in the "this season" highlights I could not wait for the episode. Such fun! Even though the "sky diving" was only VR, I still would have gone with the dinosaurs in a heartbeat. I'm not a big Tyler and Korey fan but their concerns moved me. Heartbreaking. Why in the world would the producers plan a leg in Uganda considering the abhorrent policies? Floyd is gay? Rachel is such a drama queen with her fake tears. Elissa with her huge lips is annoying too, but I've got to hand it to her for telling Rachel to put a lid on the whining. The blondes were pretty clueless. (No pun intended.) First just dumping the dino eggs in a random pot, then running around endlessly (and bothering merchants) looking for a Rolex. The head to head was useless since they finished in the order they all arrived. Phil's play by play voiceover was too much like Probst and the puzzle was definitely Survivoresque. However, since the final two teams were the annoying BB teams, either one losing was fine. I miss the days when racers had to find their own flights.

I don't begrudge Meghan her grief. Losing a parent at any age, under any circumstances is a life altering event that you never recover from. However the time is past for her to be reminding us daily that she is grieving. It's now self serving, meant to evoke sympathy and to deflect criticism of the ridiculous things she says. It's time for her to recognize that constantly bringing this up is tedious. She's entitled to her feelings but during the broadcast is no longer the right time.

Beside the fact that she denies being a feminist because feminists, you know, exclude conservative pro choice republicans.

Her nonchalance about this was gross. A contracted employee is there to do a job. Frolic on your own time in your own house.

Ronan Farrow? (I'm thinking journalists.)

16 minutes in. My dad died of cancer. During a conversation about Ben Carson’s qualifications to run HUD.

Paula did talk about "ministry time" with her husband a lot, mostly because Joy would tease her about it. But there wasn't anything trashy about it. It was funny and lighthearted, which Meg doesn't understand.

Clearly someone is on drugs.

They had her- Nicole Wallace. Malkin and Coulter are vile. SECupp isn't much better. Other than Ana the only one I could stomach would be Tara S.
