I would have to do the singing. I have zero rhythm.

Same.  But I can put on a show.

[Lantern7]

Girlfriends are killing the singing. Straight-up murdering it.

[momlyd]

Lucy Ricardo is on this show?!?

[MerBearHou]

Seems like a lot of leniency in both the singing and the drums judging!  They ALL need it.

[Browncoat]

Drum judge seems pretty lenient.

[Lantern7]

Angie & Danny ran their own race, and Angie didn’t need a medic. That’s as good as a trip to Paris, right?

[momlyd]

Amber, girlfriend, listen. Go find your car, get in it, and drive away.

[Browncoat]

Okay, everyone, remember where we parked.

[MerBearHou]

That’s my husband and me in a big parking lot.  Happens far too often than I care to admit.  

[Lantern7]

Vinny is a delight. Why wasn’t he cast for Survivor? He’d fit in better there.

[iMonrey]

OMG Yvonne and Melissa cannot sing at all.

[Browncoat]

Girlfriends need to practice their timing -- when to start singing, and add some dancing, too.

It’s the weekly miracle the Firefighters need to survive the leg.

[nilyank]

Wow. That was unpleasant. And I don't mean the girlfriends singing.

[Grizzly]

Yvonne is terrible!

Not with the singing. Otherwise, the Girlfriends would’ve been cut loose by now.

Ha, true!  I thought they were pretty lenient with hammy Cesar and Ricky.  

[WatcherUp2]

Has a couple ever split up DURING a race season? Vinnie and Amber are each other's albatrosses. And fourth is NOT front of the pack, you delusional dummy.

Has anyone said the title quote yet? I think that I missed it.

The judge wanted them to be hammy!  He rejected them several times before they hammed it up enough.

It was either Juan or Shane, I think.

[Good Queen Jane]

I don’t know who’s worse, Vinny and Amber sniping or Melissa and Yvonne singing.

I think it was Vinnie while they were doing the drumming.

Yep and bad singing aside, the Girlfriends aren't really hamming it up or dancing.

[Lantern7]

I wish we got translation of the lyrics.

Finally! The stage performers can go home to their families!

[MerBearHou]

Oh my gosh, the girlfriends cannot dance at all.

[momlyd]

I think the local performers and judges all have dinner plans. 

 

"How WE can be more supportive during the race." Holy crap, did you see her face?

Amber and Vinny, do not get married.  Do not figure out this relationship.  Get out.  Both of you.

[nilyank]

Yeah don't get married.

They don’t make me want to tear my hair out. I want to tear out Vinny’s hair, though.

[nilyank]

"We are going back to the drawing board."

Why? You are both miserable.

[Lantern7]

Looks like Big Head needed a break from the big head.

Ah, Sunny & Bizzy ran out of second chances. At least they’re taking it well.

[Browncoat]

I blame the food poisoning for Juan and Shane's fall in the ranks.

No miracles for Sunny and Bizzy this week.

Just noticed with the long shot at the pit stop the kite surfers in the water. Looks like FUN! That could have been a roadblock 😁

[Lantern7]

As far as female firefighters go, at least we have Nicole over on The Challenge: All Stars.

[iMonrey]

Finally, some real placement shake-ups. Well, except for Ricky and Cesar.

One good thing about this season is all the self-navigating. It's proving to be as important as the challenges.

Yeah but the water looks filthy.

They just kept getting lost, not know how to read a map and not ask for directions when they needed to.

[Browncoat]

Is "Who's Rihanna?" better or worse than "Who's Marilyn Monroe?"

[dizzyd]

Hmm they didn’t show Yvonne singing in the final try, so I think they were given a pass, no way did they have tune. I also hope their fire station doesn’t let sunny or Bizzy drive or navigate.

That was actually a Reward Challenge on Survivor.

No, I think it’s because of the sand color. Sand is pinkish brown. SC beaches look the same way…water is clean but look dark because of the sand

Heh. Barbados is a fitting locale since Vinny is a rude boy.

[Grizzly]

See the previews for next week? You're not supposed to lose your crew? Crew better keep up because I'm not waiting for them.

I don't think they had to have the tune as long as they had the words, timing, and some showmanship. Ricky and/or Cesar weren't all that at singing, either.  Not as bad as Yvonne, mind you...

[dancingdreamer]

Ricky and Cesar have to be my favorite  couple, they were so excited  to finally  get dressed up, and sing . I loved them. Danny and Angie did so well, and came in second.  You don't  need to be an athlete  to win AR, just be a good team.
Amber and Vinny, this is uncomfortable  to watch, he's  shouting,  she's  pouting. I'm not going to lay blame on just one of them, but they shouldn't  get married! 
Sunny and Bizzy, their navigation  skills were terrible. I figured they be last, and they were. I just hope they do better going to a fire!! The pilots aren't  great at navigation  either.

[Kleav]

Dumb question: if they lost their crew, who was taping them saying they lost their crew?

Attached cameras on their car?

[PurpleTentacle]

Uh keeping beat is my horror scenario. I'm good at it as long as I don't think about it, but as soon as I do it suddenly becomes impossible. So I think I would have done the show. While singing in spanish, a language I don't speak, doesn't sound appealing either, everything there seemed pretty doable. But that probably would have been the wrong decision. The drums seemed much faster.

Cesar might speak spanish, but he can't sing at all. That was pretty painfull. Ricky on the other hand was really not bad.

Amber is horrible at directions, but won't admit it. That's the problem here, not that they are both strong willed individuals.

Love that Angie and Danny came so close to number one. Still don't think they have any chance of winning. As soon as Angie has to do roadblocks again, it's going to be pain for them.

It was pretty obvious the firefighters would lose, considering how long they were searching for the plaza. We never saw them with any other team afterwards. But the editors did a nice job trying to obscure that fact.

That's just sand. Real flith you largely don't see. The ocean basically looks some shade of brown everywhere outside of some tropical islands. You should see the water off europe's atlantic coast.

Cameras on the car. We had that in the previous covid seasons as well, when they were in two-seater cars.

Btw. I'm pretty sure this is a fakeout. They seem to have caught "their mistake" (looked like the crews mistake to me) right away and probably doubled back and got them.

[bunnyface]

I don't know if I'm FREE AMBER or FREE VINCENT.   But they both need to be freed and far away from each other.  They're both awful.
