That wasn't a TBC episode! Does this mean that because the TBC episode is going to be 1 hour one week, and 1 hour another week, we might get a 2 hour finale episode?!?

Well, that's true, but LETS Just say there is a TBC there can be:
April 8th - leg 9 April 15th - Leg 10A April 22nd - Leg 10B April 29th - Leg 11 May 6th - Leg 12/13

Hong Kong to Macau would be a great TBC?

Well, I just randomly placed the TBC on leg 10 to show a time line or something - Does anybody else feel that this episode felt a lot more like the Amazing Race then the other episodes this season?

So a possible timeline... April 8th - Leg 9 - NEL (Poland -> Malaysia) April 15th - Leg 10A - TBC (Malaysia -> Hong Kong) April 22nd - Leg 10B - Uchenna/Joyce eliminated (Hong Kong -> Macau) April 29th - Leg 11 - Oswald/Danny eliminated (Macau -> Guam) May 6th - Leg 12/13 - (Guam -> Hawaii -> San Francisco) There is a possibility of a NEL happening before a TBC ( like in TAR 8 ), so what you're proposing, Michael, could work out.

MICHAEL D, let's put all your wishful thinking in perspective. It is most likely that the rest of TAR11 goes like this:
April 8 Episode 9 Malaysia; I used to think this would be elimin. but now I think it's another NEL
April 15 Episode 10 Hong Kong; I used to think this would be NEL, but now I think it's TBC or elim.
April 22 Episode 11 Macau; this now looks like NEL
April 29 Episode 12 Guam; wwe know this is elim. to get F4 down to F3
May 6 Epsiode 13 Guam to Tokyo to Honolulu to San Francisco
The probability that there will be a two-hour finale is quite low. Please STOP harping on it! CBS is not listening to you or to me.

apskip, we still have 5 teams so we need one more elim to get it down to Final 4, somewhere either April 8, 15, 0r 23.
If that CBS clue relates to the Yield being used next week "One team is surprised"--do we think it would be likely to be next week? But an April 15 elim would keep it from being 2 in a row....
IIRC, we have no phortographic or other evidence of U/J in Hong Kong or Macao.
And Michael, it sucks, but I think apskip is right about the one hour finale.

What exactly is making you all say there is no TBC this season? Last season it didn't show up until leg 9. apskip, I'll harp on whatever I want to harp on  It's called speculating. And I still think it's highly likely that we will have a TBC episode since we've had one every season since TAR6.

I guess there won't be a TBC episode this season, because wouldn't that all count as one leg. There isnt enough weeks left until may 6th for one leg to take 2 weeks, so I guess the schedule will be something like this:
4/8/07 (Su.) 8:00 PM CBS (#1109) - NEL - U/J 4/15/07 (Su.) 8:00 PM CBS (#1110) - U/J gone 4/22/07 (Su.) 8:00 PM CBS (#1111) – NEL - ?? 4/29/07 (Su.) 8:00 PM CBS (#1112) - Chas gone 5/6/07 (Su.) 8:00 PM CBS (#1113) – Finale

What do you mean by TBC counting as one leg? TBC's are done over two legs. EP11&12 or EP 9&10 would be a good slot for the TBC. U/J almost have to be saved EP9 because I can't see 4 teams racing for for 3legs straight unless of course U/J are eliminated EP9 then EP10 is either the TBC or NEL and the Cha's go out in Macau but we have a sighting of the Cha's in Guam doing a task so they must last untill EP12. Or this is all wrong and 2 of these legs are actually 1 leg and CBS pre-empts one of the remaining Sundays in the April schedule with some other show  roughly..and the dates are solid EP9 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia ( 12/10 ) izad has reason to believe theres one leg in Malaysia [ 5 teams left, U/J eliminated or TBC or NEL U/J marked w/30 minute penalty] EP10 Hong Kong (12/12) [4 teams or 5 teams left, U/J eliminated ] EP11 Macau (12/14) [ 4 teams left, TBC or NEL Cha's marked w/ 30 minute penalty ] EP12 Yigo, Guam/Honolulu, HI (12/16) [final 4 Chas eliminated in Guam ] EP13 Honolulu, HI to San Francisco, CA (12/16to 12/17) [ final 3 race to the finish ]

oh! my bad!
I always thought that a TBC leg all counted as one leg, so like...if leg 9 was TBC, it would all be leg 9...I'm a very confusing fellow sometimes!

If leg 9 is a TBC, and someone wants to call leg 10 as leg 9b, it doesn't make any difference whatsoever. It's still 5 weeks left, and 5 seperate legs to go. I don't think I'll ever understand why people make such a big distinction between a NEL and a TBC. It's the same thing, with just no 12 hour pitstop in between in the TBC leg.

I'm leaning towards EP9 to be a NEL because the sightings put the teams in Malaysia on Dec 10th then we lose track of them on the 11th and the next sighting is the Hong Kong airport on Dec 12th. Izad wrote: "This may or may not be a non-elimination leg. We cannot confirm this, although I'm sure we're all gonna think.. what's the point of having a NEL anyway, right?"

Sinagapore? Cambodia? New Guinea? Or maybe another 36 hour pit stop? How far is that Phuket (Thai) - made famous by Guido & the Frats in TAR1 from where they are in Maylasia?

hmm...the people at sucks seem to be getting annoyed at the fact that I'm not bashing eric and danielle over here. I feel the need to say this now since I don't want to feel like I'm hiding anything from you guys since you guys rock I'm not acting fake here or on sucks. I don't really like E/D being on all stars, I just don't feel the need to constantly say it over here since I know the majority of you guys are fans  I gave up on sucks when posters are becoming far too mean to the racers, I mean I don't like all of them but I can't imagine how some people could have such intense hatred on people they haven't even met before! People here are lot more nicer!

I don't like their presence in All Stars too. I've already said that I hate that they're racing, and in the final 3, but I see no need to reiterate this fact over and over again here, there, or anywhere else. But things may change after the finale...  Don't be pressured by any Sucksters into doing what you don't want to do, though. Majority of people there are bat crazy.

I don't know why they think we are all fans of Eric & Dee? As far as I know theres only me & Papi that are fans  ? See when they were on Season 9 the Pinky's & Eric as well as BJ & Tyler were the only teams that actually wrote to me and of course Joni  & John did too but anyway...they were real to me not snotty like some of the other teams with Season10 being the snottiest, lol. You don't have to like someone because I do .. BUT when Big Brother comes around thats another story .. " Don't hate the player, hate the game."

haha, puddin, believe me, I'm the king of liking teams that are hated by most...well, most at sucks anyways..
TAR6 - Adam and Rebecca (wtf was I thinking) TAR7 - Rob and Amber, TAR9 - The Double Dee's, then MOJO TAR10 - Beauty Queens - and they were hated A LOT during this season TAR11 - Beauty Queens - more likable, but still hated by a lot.

Oh I LOVED Flo & Zach as well as Wil & Tara << Wil was the best  . Freddie & Kendra weren't that bad, they were good racers and of course you know my love for Romber  It's too bad most people forgot how popular the Dees/Pinkies were

Here's mine: (pre-start)
TAR5 Dennis & Erica TAR6 Avi & Joe TAR7 Debbi & Bianca TAR8 New Orleans TAR9 Hippies TAR10 BQs TAR11 BQs
And here is a little flash in the TAR pan for me:
I posted at TWoP that I needed to check some shadows at 12:15 pm at the Santa Monica Pier so that I could pin down the start time of TAR5. I put it in the Dennis and Erica thread and went there. Guess who rides up to me on bikes while I was measuring angles?
Dennis and Erica

Oh, I'll never forget the "We're girls, we're young...and we like boys!" promo! haha, it was the first "really hot f/f" team that I saw on TAR!
and yeah, Flo and Zack were awesome, and with Freddie and Kendra, I actually liked them....their comment about Africa never really phased me as much as it did other people...It was probably culture shock. ha ha, I remember Freddy's "ONE OF YOU I'M GONNA BREAK IN HALF" thing.
haha, that's awesome Chateau. I'm glad you liked the BQs as well!
