Pepper the Cat July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 Hope it’s OK that I started this. I like all the teams so far. Really sorry to see Jet and Dave go first. the challenges were all really hard!

Rachel RSL July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 Ugh!! Why didn’t you guys buy a map? Whyyyyyyyyy?? I was so happy to see Jet and Dave again and am so ridiculously bummed they went out first. Other Dave and Irina can fuck off any time. They’re obnoxious so OF COURSE they come in first and get the Express Pass. 🙄 I am glad that Grampa Gilles didn’t get eliminated but I’m still a little iffy on his grandson Jared Leto. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5417550
Machiabelly July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 I am sorry to see them go, but I had a feeling they thought could coast a bit since they had experience. But man...buy a map. Tough opening leg. Chances to switch up the order at tasks. Great start. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5417614
SnideAsides July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 At least we've now established the reason this show hasn't been as fun in recent seasons is production, not the Canadian public. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5417914
xcrayon2215x July 3, 2019 Share July 3, 2019 Jet and Dave should have bought a map, will miss them. Not a huge fan of other Dave. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5418099

Bunnyette July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 Boy some of the teams are a bit...well...slow. Should have been bad tempered grandson dropping the ball not grandpa.

Grandson did the first roadblock, so Grandpa had to do the 2nd one. Dave and Irina are a little too intense and cocky. They need to calm down a bit. The athletes seem very focused. The other teams seem fairly equally matched so far. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5420496
derriere July 4, 2019 Share July 4, 2019 I'm not typically a fan of twist-casting, returnees or scenery chewing teams so I rather enjoyed the demise of the loud guys.

Rachel RSL July 5, 2019 Share July 5, 2019 9 hours ago, aemom said: I still can't even follow what the hell went wrong. Everybody else seemed to figure it out It’s pretty simple really. Everyone else bought maps but Jet and Dave asked some locals for directions to the road they needed which was 5A. In an unfortunate coincidence, there are 2 roads called 5A, one is a highway and the other is a local road. They needed to go to the local road which was only about 5 mins away. Unfortunately, the locals who live there don’t call the local road “5A”, they call it the “Princeton-Kamloops highway”. So when Jet and Dave asked for directions, the locals assumed they were looking for the 5A highway, not the local road, and unintentionally sent them on a wild goose chase. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5422382
TVbitch July 6, 2019 Share July 6, 2019 I don't remember Jet and Dave, but I don't mind them being out, because if they did well, I would be wondering whether they had an unfair advantage being the only team with previous race experience. For a while I was thinking the show might pull a shocker non-elimination for the first leg, cuz notPhil said "MAY be eliminated" and the guys repeated "MAY" and seemed like they had these hopes, too. Were they this careless with navigation the first time around? I guess Disney and Cliff Bars sponsered this episode. 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5425927
Fiftyninth July 7, 2019 Share July 7, 2019 I’ll be honest and say I’m so horrified by Sean’s haircut that I was praying his team would be eliminated. I know that’s shallow and unfair, but it really weirded me out. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5427315

No. I believe they were eliminated the episode before the finale so they actually are good racers. Technically, they weren’t exactly careless with navigation this time around, they were just given incorrect directions. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/94951-s07e01-canada-get-more-maps/#findComment-5440984
