Happiest Eliminations
north09:
The best one? Charla and Mirna! I hated the whole "I'm a midgit, and dispite wanting to prove to the world I can do things on my own, I think I'll ask this guy to help me."
TARAsia Fan:
TAR 1 - LENNNN-EEEEEEE!!! & Karyn - Tough to watch. Tough to listen to. I'm surprised Lenny didn't bring Karyn up to the Eiffel Tower to throw her off as she was complaining about his lack of location skills.
TAR 2 - Gary & Dave aka Itchy & Scratchy - Did not like this team at all. Gary never shut up. Dave looked like he wanted to hit Gary at times. Gary mugged for the camera several times until his annoying elimination in Africa. I'm happy not to have heard anything from him since.
TAR 3 - I could go with the Doublemint Twins, they annoyed the hell out of me, but I won't. I'm going with Heather & Eve. Oooh, we're Harvard Law School graduates. We're smart and pretty. We're going to play dumb and use our bodies to get forward. We're going to fail to read our clue and get eliminated. SHUT UP! GET OUT! Thank goodness the racing gods got to them before they could do more damage.
TAR 4 - David & Jeff aka Team Who? - The only team that I will use a certain person's description from TWoP because it fits. No personality. No planning skills. No brains. No finish line. Second team to get the mercy elimination because they were so far behind in the last leg. Even if they had made it to Arizona with Reichen & Chip and Kelly & Jon, they deserved the mercy elimination because they were so bad.
TAR 5 - Allison & Donny - Her behavior was awful, especially in the dog challenge in Argentina. They're behavior during the second leg was reprehensible.
TAR 6 - (tie) Hayden & Aaron - Why he proposed at the mat at their elimination is beyond me. Hayden's whining, complaining, asking about how she could run the relay in one challenge was too much. Too intense. How Aaron didn't leave Hayden in China is beyond me. Too annoying for my taste. She's attractive, but that doesn't make up for her whining.
TAR 6 - (tie) Jonathan & Victoria - You didn't think I would forget them would you? Jonathan says his behavior was misinterpreted due to editing. I don't think you can make him look any worse or better, plus subsequent shows have displayed Jonathan's true colors. You can't forgive that shove at the mat at the Brandenberg Gate nor can you forgive him not helping Victoria when she cut herself at the mud challenge in Ethiopia. Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.
TAR 7 - Lynn & Alex - There were a couple of candidates who come to mind. Susan & Patrick, Ron & Kelly, but I'll take Lynn & Alex here. They obsessed over Rob & Amber. They were quite mean when they thought she was too thin. Lynn & Alex just didn't belong on the race, IMHO. I did not like them at all and I was so happy when they were Philiminated.
TAR 8 - The Weavers - I did not like this team. I've written plenty about this team before. We know about the patriarch who died in a race. We just didn't need to be hit over the head on this fact in every episode. And their behavior was reprehensible at times. No need to rehash.
TAR 9 - Lake & Michelle - He yelled. She yelled back. My ears needed a break and I got it when they were eliminated.
TAR 10 - Peter & Sarah - Another guy who says editing made him look bad. Ok, maybe I'll give Peter a break since he works with War veterans making prosthetic limbs for them, but his behavior while Sarah was climbing the mountain was not stellar. Lying back, drinking a coke, while Sarah was trying to scale the rock wall was a bit much. Breaking up at the mat is so hard to do. When you're Sarah, it's not that hard.
TAR All Stars - Charla & Mirna - They finished 3rd when they should have been the 2nd to be out. I liked this team until the 2nd episode of this season when Mirna made some really inexplicable moves especially with the taxi driver in Chile. What was that? I wish they had been eliminated in 4th so Oswald & Danny could go to the finals, but it was not to be.
TAR 12 - Ari & Staella - Hated them. Ari's stealing of Ron & Christina's cab was avenged by the racing gods. This is a rule of the racing gods. If you steal someone's taxi, you will be eliminated down the line. The revenge? The donkeys in Ireland and it served them right.
There you have it.

:funny: :funny: :funny: too true! i remember thinking that myself. truth be told, mirna is not that bad looking either - i'm watching TAR11 now and she looks pretty good in the little shorts laying back on that dhow to zanzibar. now, if somebody would just epoxy that mouth, i would find this team a lot more tolerable..
