Next week on The Amazing Race...

Will Dave & Connor keep racing?

The race continues in Bali... I guess Joey likes monkeys. Caroline reaches her breaking point at the roadblock. Memory task with surfboards?

I hated all the tasks - didn't give me any sense of New Zealand... other than that, a lot of fun drama, and such a nice story with Dave & Connor winning the leg! Average episode for me - the worst of the three so far this season, imo.

We now know it's a keep on racing pit stop, but we don't know if this was an NEL or not.

One of the few legs in recent seasons when we had airport drama with the connections, and multiple bunching of all of the teams in Taihiti and at the first clue in/near Christchurch (with an overnight camping out in the tents.

The leg itself showed off the Christchurch area gloriously. Teams scheming, and plotting (or at least some of them) and the hockey brothers-hunt (shades of the twinhunt of season 3).

And at the TBC we literally have almost all the teams just completlng or in the middle of the roadblock.

No false drama this week; who came in last and did they survive due to an NEL?

We'll have to see what CBS leaks out in the photos for next week episode.

I like TBC legs because they're usually slow-paced <3333

except it ends up rushing the following episode.

Judging ON the episode, I hated the car task.. it's just a boring task and the only suspense is if they completed it within 83 seconds.

I loved that we got self-driving! :hearts:

I did NOT see D/C winning the leg :ascared I really thought they'd get last! But it was pretty low for them to use the Express Pass on the fishing. It seems they were too focused on getting 1st rather than facing at the potential ramifications. I would have saved it for something physically demanding .. here, they have TWO choices and the fishing one did not require much physical activity.

I'm back to hating Joey.. he always acts like he's filming a YouTube video so he's trying to be random. Idk, just hate him.

Loving Max & Katie :lol:

Leg 3 was a lot better than French Polynesia and it felt like classic Race again like all-stars. :luvya: The Detour was okay I guess. I personally thought the Rev Detour is cool, but the fishing choice would have been boring if it weren't for Chuck & Wynona. The Roadblock was just.... speechless. :lol:

Overall, the TBC was so horrible it was just "wow". If Dave & Connor quit after getting 1st in a boot, then that will NOT be acceptable. I will never forgive them for withdrawing.

Well in going back and looking, my niece is in the shot where Chuck and Wynona are getting their tickets on the subsequent last flight (7.30) and high-five. She is right behind them to the left taking a video hahaha. My parents (who were wonderful in coming with me) and I are seen behind Dave and Connor in the distance as they get their tickets from the special assistance desk in the domestic terminal. I am in a green top and white loose-fitting pants, my Mom is to the right and my Dad is wearing a cap and to Mom's right. It was funny to see us on the actual episode and we are hoping our video with Dad, Chuck and Wy, and I makes it to the insider videos and we can watch it for the memory.

That's simply awesome! :hearts: I wish teams would start or end in Chicago like in season 6 so I can be an "unknown" poser or a useful & reluctant helper for a possible team encounter. Useful being to older or least likely to win teams, barely useless for dating or complaining teams. :lol:

I don't like to judge book by its covers,

But take a good look at those two pit-stop interview of John&Jessica

We know the first one was in Bora-Bora

the second one, I am like 95% percent sure it was in Uluwatu temple (been there twice now :))

in the first one they looked so  :yess: :yess: :yess:
the second one  :groan: :groan: :groan:

hmmm... wonder what that means. I am just assuming though

Pretty good leg, even had some self-navigation and they had to catch different planes as well.

This is the first time I remember a continuing leg actually having a prize at the end of the episode.  I guess it's a non-elimination, though I suppose it might be possible to have a leg continuation but an elimination for one team midway.

The cancer team actually got more interesting just because he is on crutches, at least that might take the focus off the cancer story now (I hope).  Not likely they will get to the end though, however the cliffhanger as to whether they would even continue this particular leg is scarcely believable.  Though there has been plenty of quitting so far in this race so I suppose it's not impossible.

I'm not sure if it counts, but there were a couple of RFFer Twitter accounts shown during the hunt for Kaylani's lost passport in the first episode of Season 19. Georgiapeach and WalkingPneumonia, if I'm not mistaken.

If those count, that would mean no one besides maybe Chateau had been seen before Season 18. That would be surprising to me.

Other people mentioned Chateau. I'm not completely sure he's been on the show, but he's been at LAX so many times when teams are leaving on the first leg, I'd expect he's been in the background a few times while teams get filmed waiting for their flights.

Aside from what has been mentioned above (the twitter incident and Kiwi on last night's show), the only other one was Coutzy, who did a heroic job following teams around Sydney during the first leg on season 18. Without looking it up, I believe he was in the area once or twice while Kynt and Vyxsin were being filmed.
