This episode was the perfect example of why I rank 26 below 24.
EVERYTHING is date-themed on this race. Literally everything. We spend the first FIFTEEN minutes talking about their outfits. The Roadblock was courting-based, one Detour had to do with perfume and cologne.
Even the destinations themselves are relationship based. They are all 'pretty, vacation' themed locations. Tokyo, Thailand, Bavaria, Monaco...These are places you go for a super expensive romantic getaway or a honeymoon.
I have wanted to see Monaco on the show for years, and I'm just pissed off that it finally happened only to be entirely about these dating couples.
Give me All-Stars 2 any day.
