How could any win be undeserving? It means they performed well or at least better than the others because TAR doesn't allow cheating.

They were incredibly annoying last episode. Their remarks about Nary & Jamie were so immature. They are two overweight middle age men acting like high school jocks.
JJ grow a beard and you can work part time as a mall Santa this holidays.

All the negativity about them is annoying. These guys have done so many good things, and they're owning at the race. Tell me again why everyone thinks they shouldn't win? Because they joke around and mess with people sometimes?

Here's an article on them.

Well, it's true I dislike them. But here's the thing:

I am sure they are nice, wholesome people. The articles just proves my hunch.

I always make sure to try and separate the racers on the show with who they are in real life, because it is unbelievable how editing can change someone drastically. So when I judge as annoying, cocky, egotistical, hypocritical, unfunny. I am judging the Art and JJ from the Amazing Race, not the Art and JJ in real life. It's completely different.

btw, still don't like them

I can't believe I'm going to quote him, but Nick from Season 17 made a good point. He said in an interview something like "Viewers aren't judging the people Nick & Vicky, they're judging the characters Nick & Vicky."


So the people who are saying that Art & J.J. are doing good things in real life because it feeds their ego (Nobody here is saying this), those people are stupid. These two are good guys in real life, but from the scenes on TV they are smug, smug, smug (but they're also a really strong team). Even watching some of the bonus scenes online make them look better.

I will give you the best possible reason they shouldn't win. Because there are smarter, faster and equally strong teams in this competition. I will cite both Rachel and David and Brendon and Rachel in that category.

I do not agree that Brendon and Rachel are faster and smarter than them. Art and JJ have consistently placed higher than them. Only once did they beat them and that was when they were second and Art/JJ were third. That was also the only leg in which Brenchel had a chance to come out on top, every other time they have been substantially behind the leader. On the other hand Art and JJ have won three legs.

I bet they're nice people in real life, but it doesn't make me like them any more when they're on screen... :res:

I don't like them much either.  I also wonder if being men and stronger hasn't helped them get first place more often.  :umn:

Ok, I'm tired of them now. They are running this race in a pompous and obnoxious way. They are giving a really poor example of themselves because most of the ten million viewers will not bother to find out if they are really nice irl.

What did Dave owe them that he had to Uturn Brenchel? And why do they only refer to that team as "Dave." Do they have a problem with women or something?

Dear Art and JJ,

SHUT UP!

kevin

P.S. It is truly a shame you can't use another uturn. *sarcasm* Now you can't uturn Dave and Rachel in petty revenge, but they can still uturn you guys (which would be the smart thing to do).

Reading through Nary & Jamie's interviews, that sounds like the case.

Art and JJ are becoming worse and worse every leg, the Nary and Jaime interviews just make them hit rock bottom.

It's official, imo they are worse than the likes of Eric/Danielle, Eric/Jeremy, BJ/Tyler, FLlighttime/Big Easy, and Chad (season 17)

Congratulations Art and JJ, that's no small feat.

Meh. You hate on a lot of the good teams in my opinion.



I'll just keep rooting for Art and JJ. And BJ and Tyler will forever be the best.  :hrt:
