On the third couple and the only one I even know so far is Alyssa & James...

Austin and Jaelyn: "We have a Nate." 😂 Reminded me of the Geico commercials - like "we have aunts" and "we do have a RATT problem."

Barclay and Tee are cute. (I was wondering if it would be all male/female couples...glad it's not.) Did the back of their shirts say "Bee"? Is that their couple name? 

 

Okay, I didn't find much to comment on for the rest of it but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I guess that's it...'til next season, I suppose...

[twelve hours later...]

Am I the only one who watched..?

I think Barclay has "Bee", as a counterpoint to "Tee". Bee and Tee.

I thought the special was okay. The two qualifying runs lend themselves to Flex's strengths--slow, methodical, successful. And her hubby (fiance?) is the same. Neither of them is a speed demon, but both, especially Flex, are strong ninjas.

But in the Power Tower, there was no way either of them could keep up with Kyle. Especially since the first runner had 2/3 of the course. He had such a lead, all Megan had to do was not fall.

It's wasn't that bad. Maybe if it had run at or near Valentine's Day instead of in September.

It was a good show for a slow Monday.  The couple who caught my attention was the Olympic gymnast and her 6'7" partner.  What a difference in height!

I did expect James and Alyssa to be higher in the standings.

Pretty sure this was taped like 1.5 years ago, right?  And that was just one of the things I didn’t like about it.

That was the good thing about it - Alyssa and Flex were there pre-injuries that kept them out of this past season and the next one.
