rewatching season 3
« on: January 02, 2009, 04:49:18 PM »
Yeah so I had some time to kill  :lol:

Most surpising to me is that I don't remember half the teams, probably telling of which teams are eliminated early.

Aaron & Arianne , Michael & Kathy, Heather and Eve, Gina & Sylvia, Tramel and Talicia.

although S3 offered no memorable shouting lady ("LENEEEE", "MEREDITH!", etc) that I can think of right now

I'm on episode 2 and am tired of the driving and bus's but the scenery is pretty cool  The Fast Forward was cool though, the valaderos or however you spell it, hanging by your feet.  Uh OH! Bus crash!!

Because I only started watching this season around the Switzerland leg, I can't say I have too much input here other than I liked Flo & Zach because Zach and I share a first name.

By the way, cdfe, Flo isn't a memorable shouting lady? ;) (On second thought, though, she's more like a memorable temper tantrum lady)

Zach was a saint for putting up with Flo. Her behavior during the race was reprehensible.

I think I'm the only one who like Aaron & Arienne. Maybe it's because she took off her shirt in the taxi. :P

I did not Ian & Terri this time around, but loved them in All-Stars. I did not know at the time of TAR3, that Eye-an had just quit smoking and was going through a personal hell at the time. Now that I know, I give him a bit of a pass for his behavior.

Ian and Teri didn't grow on me until half way thru, only because Teri looks so much like my bf's mom who I cannot stand! Once I got past that though I came to admire them, they were good racers and actually found myself being happy if they had won. Ken and Gerard I didn't care for, I think it was them not helping the twins which caused their elim that made me not like them, I nener got over that and am not enjoying this season as much as I thought I would but hopefully it will get better, I'm now only on episode 3 but am taking a break, it can't hold my interest for too long.

Awww. I loved Ken & Gerard, especially their punting adventure. The Doublemint twins were not my favorite team and Flo? Goodness, don't get me started on her.

But overall, this was not as good as the first two seasons. But I really liked Jon Vito & Jill in this season and after meeting Jon Vito at TARCon XII, I saw how truly nice he was.

Remember, I didn't have internet the first 3 seasons so who you all hated on I was the opposite! Thats why I'm able to keep an open mind when watching I think. For no internet, out of 3 seasons, I picked 2 of the final 2 as well as the winners once. Season 4 winners were so obvious though ....o_O

Aaron & Arienne, I can't stand them! LOL
EP3 finally picked up after 20 some minutes of fighting for flights, would like to have seen more of Cambridge. Ken and Gerard falling in the water during the punting detour was a riot, I loved the peanut gallery on the bridge :lol:. Teri rocked the Aberdeen, Scotland roadblock, wow they had some close calls, lucky for them Dennis and Andrew were just too far behind.
Loved loved loved Aberdeen's scenery and castle.

leg 4, Phils awkward explanation of the penalty to Heather and Eve for taking the taxi instead of walking therefor saving Aaron and Arianne. Wow, another surprise turn of events for me, I guess I didn't follow the first half of this season to closely.
Again, another leg full of equalizer hate!!

I'd like to do a mega marathon with all seasons back to back, but I can only watch 10 episodes before mentally dying.

At the next TARCon there should just be a massive room dedicated to a TAR marathon. XD That would draw in many dozens of people.

Ian and I are very close to the same age. I thought he was pretty over the top for the first part of TAR3. But after he put gas in the SUV, I was just fed up with him. When he got the "stuff" to repair the damage from the all night gas station and got back on the road with minimal time loss, I started pulling for them. I think it goes with our generations tinkering with our cars when we were young. It was pretty funny to me that the other 3 teams, all "young uns" just sat and waited for someone to fix their problems. It pretty much mirrors our society today, as a matter of fact.
