Unfortunately, the wrong team won. Jon & Kris were my favorite racers ever.

I liked this cast too at first, but I don't like it much when I remember the race. I mean, seriously, a final four that had Freddy & Kendra, Hayden & Aaron and Adam & Rebecca in it? To this day, I am amazed Adam & Rebecca made it as far as they did.

It's like your worst nightmare: the top four is all dating or engaged teams!

But this was still one of my most favorite seasons! It had so many ultra-competitive people that the normal people could barely get a bit of editing time before they all got eliminated! :lol:

That is correct. And when she and Freddy arrived, she said she did not want to be in "Ghetto Africa." Horrible comments.

She did say that Ethiopia was "a different kind of poverty...it's actually kind of refreshing." :res:

Other than that they weren't too bad. But don't hit Freddy on the head unless you want to be blown to bits! ;D

Well I laughed through the opening episode.. I almost tempted to watch it again before moving on to the next episode.

Jonathan asking her if she thought he was insane :lol:

This race had more "moments" to remember than about any other two races combined. The main two (lowest) I remember are Kris and Jon getting the crappy AA ticket counter clerk and realizing that they would not win, long before they all arrived at the finish line.

The highest moment for me was when Aaron threw Haydon's backpack at her just before the fatal unlocking the lock roadblock when she was in an unnecessary meltdown. I would have thrown the her backpack at her by about episode 3 I think......man he has the patience of Job and really showed how classy he was so late in the race when fatigue and stess are highest.

Rebecca and Hellboy coming in 3rd, to me, is a testement to just how strong a racer Rebecca was. She may  be the toughest female racer in the history of the race. She dragged Hellboy kicking and screaming all the way around the world and came in 3rd. Quite an accomplishment to me. Now if she had been teamed with Linda or Karen in TAR5, I think Colin and Christie would have been on the long plane ride home from El Nido.....lol 

Anyway, TAR6 is my favorite season, by far.

I always wonder why this season had no representation in All-Stars, while some of the others had 2 teams.

With the winner this season, I guess an unlikable team has to win once in a while. Although I never really had a problem with Freddy.

My favorite moment from Season 6 just has to be Kristy vs. Swedish Haybales.


Even though she definitely missed a clue somewhere, it's still a sad end for one of TAR's strongest girl teams.

It was actually Lena. You may have gotten the wrong information from "My Ox is Broken", because I think it says that in there somewhere. I don't think they missed any clues until it was dark, but by then it was too late anyway. :(

Hayden was so annoying. AA-RON??!!!!

I loved it when Aaron said, "You are such a bi...." and stopped.

Then Hayden replied, "I am not a bitch!"

She was a bit crazy during the race. Also when they were doing the relay task, Hayden kept asking what lane she could run because she had been a relay racer. "Can I use the outside lane?" Just run!

I hate to state the obvious, Coutzy, but reflectors are standard equipment for shooting outdoor scenes for moives or TV shows. I don't know why, but apparently reflection of the sun can be a necessary type of light. I guess they could also reflect from the source of electircal or battery-powered light. TV shows need a lot of light to look good.

As to why reflectors on a cloudy day in Berlin, the answer has to be that other sources of light were insufficient or the reflector light could reach places where the regular lighting could not.

Looking at that image, I just realized something.

Where are the two people holding the reflectors that we saw in the Nick and Starr Moscow spoiler vid?

I hate to state the obvious, Coutzy, but reflectors are standard equipment for shooting outdoor scenes for moives or TV shows. I don't know why, but apparently reflection of the sun can be a necessary type of light. I guess they could also reflect from the source of electircal or battery-powered light. TV shows need a lot of light to look good.

As to why reflectors on a cloudy day in Berlin, the answer has to be that other sources of light were insufficient or the reflector light could reach places where the regular lighting could not.

I was actually trying to say that I couldn't see them anywhere in that shot, not asking why they are there. I know why TV shows use reflectors. Natural lighting (Reflected or otherwise) looks better than floodlights.

Season 6 will always be my favorite!

And I loved Aaron/Hayden. Probably my favorite TAR team ever. He was so chill and funny, and she was so crazy!

But even though she could be really annoying, I loved her competitive side and how she'd regret being a bitch and apologize. Also, they were both pretty competent racers most of the time. It should have been between them and Jon/Kris at the end. I can't believe Adam and Rebecca got into the Final 3 because Aaron and Hayden picked up the cab from hell in China.

Anyway, LOVE this season. Great teams all around. Plus, the CLASSIC swim race in the pool!

Hi-Fi,
I think you need to watch the Xian ending of AR6 ep. 11 again. Start with the time on Mt. Hua where the locks Roadblock is happening. Watch Kris and Kendra finish and disappear. That leaves Hayden and Rebecca to find the correct lock. As the closing time (7pm) forced by the last transportation off the mountain nears, Aaron/Hayden make a strategic move and take the 4 hour penalty. By incredible luck, in the last minute or so before closing, Rebecca's lock turns open. That means they avoid the 4 hour penalty and there is no way they can reasonably lose. all of the chase scenes in Xian were superfluous because unless Adam/Rebecca got into a very serious taxi accident or died en route, they were not going to finish 4 hours after Hayden/Aaron. If fact they finished only a minute or two after.

Hey, apskip!

I meant before the roadblock, Hayden and Aaron started the leg in first and the only reason they got at the Mountain in last for the locks Roadblock was because their cab got them lost. They lost a HUGE ammount of time in the cab. I mean, Kris and Jon were already finished with their roadblock and so were Freddy and Kendra, I think, when they got there. So they left de detour in first but arrived at the roadblack in last. But yeah, Rebecca was really lucky and Hayden was already in Meltdown mode when they got to the Roadblock, which didn't really help.

But if you watch that episode again,  you'll see just how long Rebecca was trying to find the correct lock.  Rebecca was at least looking for 4 hours or even more than that.  So really Rebecca had been looking for longer than Haydon, and had bad luck.  It was the cab's falt though that Haydon and Aaron were behind.

They may have fought a lot but I sure did end up liking Bolo a lot.  I felt he grew a lot as a person throughout the race.  Lori?, well.....

I remember the previews clearly showing Lori and Bolo were the ones to be eliminated.  But I tried to convince myself that the previews were just a trick.  During the airing of the episode, I did something I normally didn't do, visit this site.  A certain mod was kind enough to give me info if I wanted it http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,4214.msg52883.html#msg52883

You're so funny.   I don't think so.   :funny:   

I read up thread about the Early Show hyping the start of the season.  That was so great.  I tried to view those Harry and Dave vids again but those CBS web monkeys wouldn't let me.  http://www.cbsnews.com/elements/2004/11/19/earlyshow/videoarchive656660.shtml

For those interested, here's part two of the three part series. http://www.comcast.net/tv/video/24467623/harrydavebareallonamazingrace/


Outstanding smiley, GeorgiaPeach.  You have been a great partner to Puddin.  Back in the day, she carried the load all by herself.  Because of that, I always started  a Puddin appreciation thread at the end of every season.  I know she has had a lot help over the years but she is by far the number one reason for the continued growth and success of RFF.

Thanks for the invite but I'm going to stay spoiler free again.  I will try to post more in the other threads if there are more WOW episodes.  That is the thing I miss most about the Amazing Race, times that I go WOW when watching the show.  Last season, I was only WOWED in Bolivia. 

I hope all of the detectives have a great season.

Rage Before Beauty: Reality TV's 19 Biggest Blowups



JONATHAN SHOVES VICTORIA ON THE AMAZING RACE

The relationship between Season 6's bickering couple was strained even further when Jonathan shoved Victoria after her decision to carry his backpack — a move that slowed them down — cost them the first place slot that week. The borderline domestic abuse spawned much media criticism, which led the couple to appear on Dr. Phil to improve their marriage. Jury's still out on the state of their relationship, but they might need more anger management: Jonathan and Victoria both attacked reality star Jonny Fairplay and Joe Rogan during an episode of Fear Factor.
