Once again . . . why do I watch this show? Yeah, I like snarking on this forum, but the mediocrity is up to eye level at this point. Probst would realize the series is in dire straits, but I’m convinced he’s too busy getting off on all the suffering to notice that.
Next week is gonna be a shitshow, and I’m not thinking about Liz’s movements. At least four jury members will be bitter about misplaying their idols, and they’ll take it out on the finalists, most of whom couldn’t hack being in a season where the average contestant IQ is in triple digits.

Do 2nd and 3rd win any money? Besides what they might have won during some legs?
Yeah. I don’t know how much, though.

Congratulations to Ricky and Cesar. I’m sad that they’re going to get a shitload of grief for their win.

Just now, Drummermom said:They should have just handed Ricky and Cesar the million at the beginning and cancelled the race. It was designed just for them. I have never seen anything more unfair. Oh well.
I disagree.

Too bad Danny's not still in it -- he's good at puzzles, right?
They would've had to blindfold him to make things fair for the other teams.

Leticia looks like she’s suffering classroom flashbacks.
Wait, we’re ending on a plus-sized Survivor puzzle?!?

It’s the resignation that really sells it. I would’ve been too tempted to go, “Oh, hell nay.”

“Huzzah!” I would’ve expected “Go Eagles!”

Looks like this has a helluva learning curve.

Of course Vinny would propose. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
This is the first time teams that won legs were not eliminated.
It would’ve been hilarious if she turned him down. HIGH. Larious.

This was too basic a leg. I’m happy with the results, though.

No one is doing the strength Detour? I don’t drink alcohol, so that would be my option.

I’m too big of a One Piece geek. I’d be asking the pirates if they know “Bink’s Brew.”

Good episode. I think the season suffers airing after the season that succeeded it. Ricky & Cesar were dominant, but it's hard to gauge how dominant given the stripped-down version of the Race. If TAR ever does a season with "the best of the best," I'd want to see those two in action on a far larger stage.
Vinny proposed to Amber, and she said yes. Of course they did. I want them to be different people than what we've seen, because the alternative is a bit nauseating to contemplate.
Juan & Shane and Rod & Leticia weren't bad themselves. The worst you can say was that Rod was hard-headed. Most teams would have melted down making the mistake that the Pilots made. They kept their humor and soldiered forth. Pretty admirable.
It kinda sucks we didn't get TAR trivia, but we got some lessons in American history, guided by people too eager to don 18th-Century attire and chew scenery. Also: pirates. And a parrot. Because why not?
What really sucks is that we'll have to wait a long time for TAR37, while CBS airs reality TV that doesn't reach TAR in the category of quality. Even a stripped-down version of the show can beat the likes of Survivor, and that's true if those players weren't the biggest collection of numbnuts ever assembled by Jeff Probst.
