Well, maybe the finale is not the best leg, the result is not what I wanted, but the racers in this episode really inspired me a lot. This is the first time Vietnam has a reality show like this, so I can’t really blame on them. I just hope for better seasons in the future so we can enjoy this great reality show :hearts:

Thanks anhgau2007 for the detailed recaps (better than the wiki one = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Amazing_Race_Vietnam !) and the little nuggets of information here & there (this is indeed news - Minh Hoàng and Chí Bình did a nude photo shoot!).   :tup: :tup:

For a 1st timer, this franchise did rather well, IMHO...  :)

This race has shown me that there are more to Vietnam than HCM City!  )-**

Well, now on to season 2!  :hearts:

Thanks again!  :tup: :tup:

(I wouldn't be surprised if anhgau2007 was the one updating wikipedia), but thank you anhgau2007 and lepnit304 for your added stuff to this discussion thread.


I'm also impressed at what all has been shown of Vietnam. I had no idea that some of this existed, such as the sand dunes.



One other question: Do any of you know which team was being rooted for by people who actually know Vietnamese?

I only updated The Amazing Race Wiki. I don't know who updated Wikipedia, the details there are wrong sometimes.
Based on what I see, young girls and moms like the actors cuz they're... handsome (always that reason lol) while other people either dont like them or like Thành Phúc but hate Baggio. A lot of people like the couple and the travelers while the brothers don't have many fans (maybe cuz they're not... so fun to watch, but I like them). Also people like the cousins (purple team, cơm cháy team, supermen,...) so they turn to hate teams that U-Turned them lol. The co-workers have lots of fans too. RiMi have fans, but seems like they only like Richie. The others...
