Donny Ketchum September 26, 2015 Author Share September 26, 2015 Pretty silent, but the news anchor spots they'll probably do will get exhausting after a while. But they recovered from switching Detours wonderfully, so it shows that they do have some game to them. Let's see how they do on future legs.

Paron Xanthis October 3, 2015 Share October 3, 2015 So they were the only team to do the Fletero Detour, and they seemed to make some good time at it. Kelsey also made good time at the Roadblock, another one to get it done on her first attempt. Seventh place was decently earned. I'm actually glad they didn't do any news spots this week.

Paron Xanthis October 10, 2015 Share October 10, 2015 These reporters are just no-drama, focused racers. I love that they are so competent at the tasks and don't miss many details. Compared to this leg's top two, I think they're definitely preferable. I hope they last a while, as well. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31256-s27-kelsey-joey/#findComment-1587567
Bryce Smith October 17, 2015 Share October 17, 2015 They're still racing solidly enough, but it's sad to see them join in the mob mentality. I want to keep liking them, but this needs to stop. But Kelsey killed the Roadblock, and their strategy at the Croquet Detour was sound, with Kelsey blocking the pro's ball. Let's see if they can keep this up!

Bryce Smith October 24, 2015 Share October 24, 2015 Holding steady, they remain about in the middle of the pack. Kelsey did well with the Roadblock, they did the Detour at an okay pace, and they didn't fail the lion task. They lost third place at the fruit balancing, so fourth place is where they finished. I have to say that I wouldn't be surprised if they win. They're the only team whose edit seems close to perfect right now.

Lingo October 24, 2015 Share October 24, 2015 (edited) Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they won either. I smell a winner's edit. I like them, particularly Kelsey, but I'm distracted by Joey's newscaster-like voice. It's like he's doing a perpetual imitation of Phil Hartman or Zapp Branigan or Ted Knight. But apparently that's his normal voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-yWcqAN-z4 Edited October 24, 2015 by Lingo Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31256-s27-kelsey-joey/#findComment-1637119
Bryce Smith October 31, 2015 Share October 31, 2015 They were pretty quiet on this leg. From what we saw, they also nailed both Roadblocks, and they needed a few attempts at the Drops Mic Detour. Nothing overly remarkable for them. Easy third place, I guess. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31256-s27-kelsey-joey/#findComment-1658652

Dale Griffin November 7, 2015 Share November 7, 2015 (edited) They got off to a good start when Joey was the only one to clear the Roadblock in one try. But then, they faltered at the Ship Detour long enough for Justin & Diana to pass them up. Lucky to get to second place by being faster than Tiffany & Krista on the run to the Pit Stop. I do notice, however, that the editing has shifted priorities. I think Justin & Diana vs. Tanner & Josh has now shifted to Justin & Diana vs. Kelsey & Joey. Honestly . . . I like this better, because at least they mentioned wanting to beat them themselves, not by using other teams to do it . . . Tanner & Josh.

Journalists, more than the average person, should know what it is. But it could be hagoo. English is weird. Journalists who cover international stuff should know about the international court. Journalists who cover local stuff may not. I worked at a newspaper for 19 years, and while I know about The Hague, I probably wouldn't recall off the top of my head about the UN international court. It comes up so rarely in our relatively small town in the middle of the country. It is much more useful to know where city hall and the county courthouse are. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31256-s27-kelsey-joey/#findComment-1725616

But here we go- Congratulations to Kelsey and Joey. You guys ran a great race, worked well together, almost no anger or upset or tears (that we saw- minus the cab deal at the NY roadblock).

RedheadZombie December 13, 2015 Share December 13, 2015 Wow, no posts on the winners' thread, 18 hours later! I guess that's what happens when most viewers' opinion on the win is "At least it wasn't the other guy."I always wonder if these shows consider this a casting failure. It's not the first time that the winners are so bland or edited that they've received few comments, while some of the other players have inspired passionate hate or love. I felt little to nothing for Kelsey and Joey throughout, but found I could not root for them by default. I didn't like them. And their prune lipped uptight behavior when arguing the taxi at the mat just furthers my opinion. You're standing there knowing you've won the million dollars and still bickering. Maybe an over investment in their image as related to their occupations.When Justin can more easily shake of his loss than these two can laugh off the cab drama - it reflects on the winners. K/J won the race, they have all the former players there screaming for them, they won the battle of the cab ....... yet they're still pissed. Plenty of players have had cabs stolen, money stolen, shifty players jumping tracks to beat them at the mat, been ganged up on with a u-turn, yet shaken it off and continued on. Just reinforces why I don't like these two. Team Texas was more gracious when completing one of hardest u-turns ever.

sinycalone December 13, 2015 Share December 13, 2015 IIRC, Kelsey and Joey did not bring up the cab incident on the mat...but they were drawn into the conversation.. I thought Logan was the one still stressing out over the attempted cab hijacking, and would not drop it. If Logan had just dropped the issue...the whole thing would have ended. 1 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31256-s27-kelsey-joey/#findComment-1799980

blackwing December 17, 2015 Share December 17, 2015 I enjoyed that interview. And they seem to be fully aware that people are claiming they are boring or invisible, and chalk it up to Justin dominating the screentime because he's Justin, and because he and Diana fought. This always seems to happen. Couples that get along and don't fight are often labelled as "boring" by viewers. Then this only encourages producers to find people like Justin, and I suspect it is why we are getting a season of allegedly non-boring social media exhibitionists. I think that stinks. There's nothing wrong with couples like Joey and Kelsey who work well together and don't argue. Steve and Aly, the Olympians, garnered the same complaints. People always seemed to comment they were boring. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/31256-s27-kelsey-joey/#findComment-1811418
