Speaking of fashion - I'm bugged by the way Danielle let's her boobs hang out in whatever country she is in, regardless of local customs. Did anyone else notice how she unzipped her top while she was doing the newspaper challenge? So tacky and insensitive.

Just bugs me. If Eric wants to give her a nickname, he can call her an Ambassador of American Ho-osity

Belm - I apologize for posting my thoughts on the spoilers in normal print and not in white - I didn't realize that I was being insensitive; thank you for bringing it to my attention.


Then can you please go back and put your previous post in white? These are the kinds of comments I was referring to earlier when I asked that they be put in white. This is one show I really don't want to be spoiled for, and I already feel like I know who *won't* be winning based on comments like the one you made. It's getting really frustrating because I want to read this thread and am starting to feel like I can't because I don't want to be spoiled.

Danielle is so fake looking. I think she had something done (maybe at the wishes of her "wonderful" boyfriend Doucebag Eric) because when she was racing w/ Dani, she looked more natural. No Barbie hair and boobs. Eh, the big floppy boobs are awful to look at. You would think she wore and excercise bra. I mean really, isn't it hard to run w/ those things flapping in the wind (can you so not tell I'm not big? :p )?

No one.....NE leg.

wander_woman

Isn't the leg before the final 3 always a non-elimination? It seems like it usually is. I wasn't surprised, though I was annoyed b/c I want Eric & Danielle gone. It looks like E&D can't stand each other anymore. They look like they're ready to go home; they weren't even excited to learn it was a NE round.

I will be really bummed if either Eric/Danielle or Mirna/Charla win the race. In addition to all 4 of them being seriously annoying human beings, neither team plays the game well. They don't play smart, they don't work well together, and they don't engender any good feelings from other teams or from the locals. They just somehow get lucky enough to hang on by the skin of their teeth. They certainly shouldn't be considered "all stars."

I don't understand all the BQ hating that was going on in this episode. I know the show is highly edited, but at least from what we've seen, the BQs have done absolutely nothing to make M/C hate them (in fact, just the opposite; they were much nicer to M/C during the eating challenge a few episodes back than I ever could have been). So why all the hate? Did I miss something?

Ugh, I was pissed. I thought for sure that Schmirna would be penalized for not taking the Star (or whatever the name was) ferry. The directions specifically said "take the star ferry to Hong Kong Island". They didn't take the star ferry, they took a cab and then took a different ferry back to wherever they were to begin with and then back to Hong Kong Island. Sure they did take a ferry to Hong Kong Island but it wasn't the Star Ferry. That was my only hope for them being eliminated. Although it wouldn't have mattered, but I would have rather those two be marked for elimination.

I guess now that I think about it, I don't care if it was Eric & Danielle or Schmirna that was marked but I still don't think it's fair. :rolleyes:

I was thinking the same thing about the BQ hating. I told my husband when Schmirna was going on and on about them that I think the beauty queens are the smartest ones in the race. I think people are just jealous of them because they are attractive, smart, and play the game well.

JenniferEC

The crap talk about the BQs using the Yield needs to stop, especially since it looks like it might be used again next week. I'm guessing E/D and Schmirna can't grasp that using it is part of the game. I wanted to smack Mirna when she called them Yield Queens.

Too bad last night wasn't the finale. I want the teams to finish in that order. E/D and Schmirna don't have any business in the final 3. Was anybody else hoping that that bamboo wall in the karate challange would fall apart when those teams were on it?

Adaya
04-16-2007, 07:47 AM
I'm not a fan of the BQs, but I don't see anything that would warrant all of the negative talk about them from E&D and Scmirna. From what I've seen all season, they haven't done anything to deserve that. They are just playing the game as fair and smart as they know how. Don't the other teams realize that this is a game? They would do the same thing to any other team, especially the BQs if they had the chance. So they all need to Shut.It.Up!

msnicolea
04-16-2007, 08:09 AM
Agreed. Shut. It. Up. It's a GAME, not a tea party!

I'm now convinced that Eric and Dani are going to win--whenever a team gets a pass near the end, I swear they always take it all! (J and U, the Hippies, etc. . .)

MrsE123

LOL @ tea party. :D

I know, I was thinking the same thing about E&D getting by on the NE leg. I said, "I bet they are gonna win." :( It always works out that way for some reason. Or at least it's been a pretty consistent pattern for a few teams. It seems like it could be the kiss of death, but it actually works out.

Only time will tell....God, please don't let them win...Thanks, Tracie

I know this will be an unpopular opinion, but I kinda enjoyed watching M&S last night. I was laughing along with them when they were climbing the walls, and thought it was hilarious when Charla was kicking in the doors.

I don't know why, but I can't stand the BQs. I have no reason not to; they just rub me the wrong way.

Looks like they are in Macau next week judging by the previews. I wonder what the "shocking" decision will be about?

04-16-2007, 10:35 AM
I didn't watch the show but did Schmirna practice their spanglish in Hong Kong. Gawd, I can just imagine them talking crazy to the Chinese!:rolleyes:

One more thing (spoiler):

Adaya, you are so right. According to the spoiler post at the middle of this thread, Douche Bag & Bimbo did win it all! :(

I was thinking the same thing. But wasn't it called something else or maybe I'm just making up stuff? Oh, maybe it was the actual "working together" in groups like that had a special name.

I don't know, but I had the same thought.

I was wondering the same thing. I don't think I heard Phil say in the voice-over that teams could only get one FF - none of the other teams thought that D & O couldn't use it - so I assumed it was legit (otherwise another team would have tried for the FF.

nekopie76
04-16-2007, 01:47 PM
One thing that is bothering me (and it was mentioned earlier) is that the teams aren't being penalize for not following the clue directions. In this week's show, M&C didn't take the ferry to Hong King Island. Sure they took a ferry when they got there but that shouldn't count. And then either last week or the week before, 2 of the teams didn't walk to the detour. They took cabs and they didn't get penalize either. What is up with that? I don't think they would edit something like that out.

I have to admit that I kind like Charla. She is one tough cookie. I really hate her cousin. If I hear "My friend" one more time, I am going to start muting my TV when they are on. :rolleyes: Charla has she moments but for the most part, she just lets cousin be the bitch.

JamBray
04-16-2007, 02:41 PM
I pretty much knew it would be a non-elim leg, so wasn't surprised that E&D got another go at it, but I am highly disappointed they're still in the race. I hope either they or M&C go next week, as I couldn't handle either one of these teams taking the race. And I don't get all of the BQ hate either, nor why Mirna went on and on about them Yielding E&D and how karma would get them, etc. :rolleyes: Looks like the only ones karma touched last night were you and E&D. :cool:

YAY for D&O for coming in first again! I had actually forgotten the rule of only using the FF once though. Huh...are teams getting a slight pass because it's "All-Stars" I wonder?

Yeah I thought about that. Especially Terry & Ted (they were the gay couple I know I got Terry right but I forgot the other guy's name. Jerry? Anyhoo, they were on the same season as the beauty queens and they had to haul that junk to the boat) got a 30 min penalty for not following the rules...

mrs_pell
04-22-2007, 06:13 PM
I'm laughing my ass off at the yield situation!!! How smart of O and D! And, honestly, I think it was brilliant! With them being "marked" it helps your chances even MORE of not being the team that's eliminated!

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! "Danny the jumping bean!" :D Too freaking funny!!

Other than buying a yield, not a very exciting episode. I don't understand why people (Schmirna) get their panties in a wad over the yield. It's part of the game. If the Chas hadn't been so lost, the yield would have worked last night and we'd be rid of Eric and his floatation devices.

Will next week's episode be 2 hours?

I thought the episode was pretty good, but I felt if the BQs were going to tell the story to E&D, then tell the story, you know? Don't spin it to make it seem as if Danny and Oswald made the choice and you had nothing to do with it. I mean it's not as if they're not going to find out anyway. :rolleyes:

I cracked up when Mirna couldn't drive the car and was trying to push it out of the way. :D

Off topic a bit, but does any watch 48 Hours Mystery on Saturday nights? The case over the weekend was about a double homicide in Napa Valley back in 2004, and one of the girls murdered was a good friend of Kelly from TAR 7. (the beauty queen idiot who had the POW boyfriend).

My friend, my husband and I LOVE these recaps and check the site each week until the latest recap gets posted. They are hilarious & if you haven't been reading them yet, you should start because the writer is so funny!

04-27-2007, 09:36 PM
From the recaps that framboise linked to:

Finally it's 11, and as the teams get on the elevator, Eric and Dani get off the ferry in Macau. Cha Cha Cha is to the Clue Box first and they Yield Eric and Dani. Then we cut to an interview with Mirna, who tells us: "The Yield wasn't really necessary. Why would you ever yield a team in the beginning of a leg knowing that they're not that far behind and that they can catch up and pass you at any moment?"

And with that comment, it all becomes clear: Mirna doesn't know what a yield is! It seems obviously to me that it is precisely because a team is not that far behind and because they can catch up and pass you at any moment that you would (and should) use a Yield. I'm not sure what she thinks a Yield is, but maybe something to do with killing kittens?

HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Perfect!! :D

I'm so afraid M&C are going to win and I'll have to listen to those awful screams of joy.

If they do, it may be the least deserving team ever. Seriously. Charla kept hitting the buttons of the GPS even after he told her 17 times not to.

I've enjoyed this season, but if the BQs don't win - i may need therapy...

I don't know if I'd go that far ;) I think that Mirna is really, really annoying (and condescending to Charla), but I don't mind Charla nearly as much. I think she has a pretty good attitude and she is pretty much up for anything even though it's a lot harder for her to do some of the more physical challenges.

I thought it was interesting that Danny & Oswald said they should win. I wonder if they are nicer and less annoying in person.

Well according to many of the previous racers, they really are that, if not more, annoying in person. That's why I was surprised that Danny & Oswald said what they did.

I really, really, really hope Charla and Mirna don't take this race. Otherwise I just might cry.

Cha Cha interview (http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/interview-ozzy-and-danny-dish-about-the-amazing-race-all-stars-5100.php)

Reality TV World: Most of the other eliminated teams that we've interviewed have had a pretty negative opinion of Charla and Mirna, yet when you were eliminated last night, you guys didn't hesitate to say that you were rooting for them to win. Can you two explain why your opinion of them seems to be so different from the opinions of the other racers?

Danny: Well... You take three evils, so you take the lesser one of them. And I guess [Charla and Mirna] are the lesser of the three evils [left in the race].

Reality TV World: Danny, you went as far as to say that you "sincerely feel" Charla and Mirna are "a class act." Do you still feel the same way after watching the race on TV all season?

Danny: What they did, they didn't do to me. They were always very classy to me. They always kept their word. They always shared information when we shared information with them. I find that to be honorable, in anybody. You know, I think that's admirable.
Oswald: The one thing that we sort of see about Charla and Mirna is that they're cuckoo, they're insane. But they're true to themselves, versus the beauty queens [Dustin Seltzer and Kandice Pelletier] that are a little bit delusional about world peace and kindness. And you know, [Eric Sanchez and Danielle Turner] who... Danielle is sweet. Eric is just a homophobe.

Aww so Eric is a douche bag off screen as well...

I'm curious about this two as we've never seen these two fight. I'm wondering how much is edited though--like I wonder if when Candice is saying "it's over", it's actually at the end of the fight as in, it's over, let's just let it go and move on. It will be interesting to see...

Do you mean the animosity towards them from other teams or on CC?

I am not a fan of the BQs actually, but I cannot understand why the other teams don't like them. It seems like because of the editing we might be missing something or these folks are just being petty and picking on them for no reason at all. I find that hard to believe, but people can be silly when it comes to these kinds of reality shows and competitions.

I'm not a huge fan of the BQs but they do at least play the game well and are nice to each other. I think D/E and M/C are lousy players (in addition to being extremely annoying) and don't deserve to win. I'm surprised they even made it this far; shows how big a factor luck is in the game.

I can't believe they won on a task devoted to communication and listening--the irony is staggering!

No kidding.

As far as I can recall, the spoiler was correct. I know it was for last night and last week, but I don't remember the exact order of the mid-season eliminations.

Yes. I'd love to know who leaked it.

Yup, it was dead on from start to finish! Funny thing is, I had to go back and read the spoiler b/c I have such a bad memory. I forgot each week if it was right or not. LOL!! That's why I don't really mind reading spoilers sometimes b/c I always forget anyway. So you'll never have to worry about me spilling the beans around here. ;)

I can't believe I avoided it this time--I accidently read it two seasons ago--I was so PO'd!

I really wonder who spills it!

I threw the remote when E&D emerged. I just wanted an all-girl team to win.

I'll miss the BQs

Question: A couple of shows back, Phil mentioned that it was Eric's second time in the final 3 and Danielle's first. Didn't they race together before? I've seen every season, but don't remember them.

Yup the spoilers were dead on. I checked back to it each week and when it started looking right I knew douchebag & his floation device were gonna win. Blech! :p

I just keep hearing Danny in that interview about him being a homophobe and I can't get over how undeserving he is.

Ughh, what a crappy ending. Eric & Danielle were my least favorite team of the entire group. Even Mirna & Charla would have been better b/c I feel like they had to work harder at the physical tasks and at least kind of deserved it (though they would be uber-annoying in interviews, talking about how they won b/c of their wits and their ethics).

douchebag & his floation device

westamp, that is an awesome description! Hilarious. I feel exactly the same way about them.

I was also annoyed at the show. This is the second finale in a row that has just sucked. The first half was fun with the plane drama and the kayaking. But then the $1m rested entirely on a stupid 10 minute game and a cab race. I hate when the show ends with cab races! Why oh why can't the last episode just be about doing difficult tasks that really separate the teams and don't make everything turn on one stroke of luck?

They really need to hire me as a writer/trip planner. I have very strong opinions about how the show could be improved. :)

I don't think this has been posted. It's Eric & Danielle's interview with Reality TV World (http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/interview-eric-and-danielle-talk-about-their-the-amazing-race-win-5134.php).

Even months after the race, and having won a million dollars, Eric is still a dick to Danielle.

E&D were on a radio station here this morning. They have broken up, and Eric was a total jerk to the radio people and Danielle. He did mention that he talks to Charla frequently. He even had Charla and her husband to his house to watch an episode of the show.

Well it's a good thing Danielle broke up with Eric. He's not catch. Blech on the interview. You won your money stop bitching about the Cha's. Very immature.:rolleyes:

So disappointed about the outcome. I really wanted the BQs to win, and even though I pretty much knew Eric and Danielle would be the ones rounding that corner, I still held out hope. Oh well. At least Charla and Mirna didn't win it.

I was rooting for the BQ's, if only Dustin hadn't changed her answers at the last secon, but oh well. Eric and Danielle did have to overcome 2 yields to win. I thought the phone call with Jeremy was l-a-m-e! Also, I thought he looked terrible.

Mirna & Charla's Reality TV World interview (http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/interview-charla-and-mirna-dish-about-being-amazing-underdogs-5146.php) is up now. I think they sound just about as looney in the interview as they did on the show. :rolleyes:

“For the People That Don't Like Us, I'm Glad We Ruined Your Season” – An Interview with The Amazing Race: All-Stars’ Winners, Eric & Danielle
(http://www.realitynewsonline.com/cgi-bin/ae.pl?mode=1&article=article6948.art&page=1)
NO: Do you stay in touch with any teams from either your first season or All-Stars?

Eric: Yes, actually. I talk to Uchenna & Joyce a lot. I talk to Kandice. So does Danielle. We talk on the internet to a lot of people. Teri & Ian live pretty close to me and I'm going to go fishing with them. From my last season, I'm going to Joseph & Monica's wedding in the end of July. I talk to BJ & Tyler. I've talked to Dave & Lori in Kansas. We talk to a lot of teams – most of them.

I just want to say that, for our fans, we really appreciate the people who like us and don't talk trash. And for the people that don't like us, really I'm glad we ruined your season. You want to say bad things, nothing makes me happier than ruining the haters' season.

Holy cow! Can't believe that cry baby Monica will be marrying Joseph! Notice he didn't say he talks to Dustin (who's Dustin? Miss CA? I'm sorry I keep mixing those two up).

I don't care I still can't stand douchebag!
