I wish I could agree more with this comment, but it is physically impossible! :cmaslol

Ironically, that was the reason I didn't like the cast, it seemed like they were trying to hard to be diverse.

Same for this comment.

(I liked the diversity but all of the decent teams besides the Beauty Queens were out by Leg 3, so it was an awful cast from there onwards for me.)

Kellie & Jamie were decent? I don't remember a peep about them besides them getting lost in the second leg :cmaslol

Well obviously they weren't memorable. How many teams eliminated within two legs are memorable? Very few.

But if Kellie & Jamie had made it further (as well as other teams eliminated within Legs 1-3) the cast would've worked out much more nicely in my opinion.

RachelLeVega:
I thought season 10's routing was truly exotic, but the cast was entirely decent in my opinion. Diversity isn't a very big factor for me as long as each team was tolerable.

Bilal & Sa'eed- They were competitive, surprised everyone by leaving in 1st during the Seattle start line, but I just thought they were another Steve & Dave.

Vipul & Arti - Unique sweethearts, I loved them, something about them spoke to my mind to adore their spirits.

Kellie & Jamie - rather fit and weak competitors on air, if they stayed longer, they might have became a Katie & Rachel.

Duke & Lauren - Decent, but not very memorable

PPlys:
As a Dane I do have some comments for the episodes in Denmark in season 19:


--- Quote from: boston_jen on November 14, 2011, 10:43:42 AM ---I just spent an hour NOT finding a match.  I had figured it was part of an old private residence, but didn't think about the royal residences!  :groan:

--- End quote ---

It is not our royal castle - Amalienborg

And as you can see it is very close to Havet (the pitstop) http://goo.gl/F5n9X

But it is the castle with out parliament - Christiansborg

Sorry he was so dull.


--- Quote from: krabbe on November 14, 2011, 10:14:59 AM ---They could take a train to Billund. I once did this route myself & it's not too far & the trains were very convenient.

--- End quote ---

You can't take a train to Billund. You can take the train to Vejle and then a bus from Vejle to Billund.


--- Quote from: Neobie on November 21, 2011, 11:47:01 AM ---Did anyone mention this? The Hans Christian Andersen quote was on an "amazing" plaque...

--- End quote ---

Else it may have been in danish ;)


Another flaw in this episode. When they are driving from Copenhagen to Billund there are a helicopershoot of this bridge:



But it is Öresundsbroen between Denmark and Sweden (the longest combined road and rail bridge in Europe)

http://goo.gl/NsDHj

The are actually passing Storebæltsbroen (The suspension bridge, known as the East Bridge, has the world's third longest main span (1.6 km), and the longest outside of Asia)



http://goo.gl/7JmMW

But it is shurely because that they got a helicopter in Copenhagen and didn't want to fly the 100 km for a picture of the right bridge.

And the Frederiksborg slot will translate into Frederiks castle castle. The first castle is like a stronghold and the second castle is the livingplace for royals. And Frederik is a name. Our crownprince is Frederik X.

The pistop 'Havet' translates into 'The Sea'. So you can't write The Havet. Then it is The The Sea ;)
