Expedition Impossible
Prophet:
Episode Four was more of the same. I thought the grappling hook task was the best of the season so far and wish it had been the pivotal task instead of being negated by another dumb bunching point in the middle.
I get the sense that people are not watching this as much as it gets into the season. The main problem is still that the episodes are very boring because of task design. Teams basically stay in the same order at all times. And it seems like a majority of the leg is spent in transit rather than skill based tasks.
I can understand the issues with editing and poor hosting since it is the first season. But other successful shows have always been better because of task design.
The second problem is the way the teams have been handled from the beginning. I can finally recognize each team but each one seems to have a "main member" which is one person that does most of the talking and I don't know who the other two are. The only teams I could name more than one member from are No Limits and Fab 3. And of those I only know two people.
BTW, quote of the night: AJ: Let's just keep doing what we do Kari: What? Fight? :lol3:

It seems to me that there should be a second and even third place prize as The Gypsies seem like such a shoe in for first place. They have had a lot of all terrain type experience and never seem to break too much of a sweat or chill on whatever task they are attempting. They are good guys but way out ahead in terms of experience in this type of endeavor than the other teams.
I'd like to see at least one other team's efforts be rewarded!

I love the scenery. I love the concept. BUT ---- there seems to be no "intellectual" challenge. The race I put on for my boys each Christmas is more challenging mentally. I realize that this show is physically challenging, but it could be a lot better if they threw in some mental tasks. The lantern was the closest thing that they have done that could be considered mental so far and that is not saying much for the show. I hope it gets better. They just need to work out some of the kinks. Make em use their noggins Mr. Burnett. :umn: :umn: :umn:

I'd rather hope ABC could bring back THE MOLE!!!!!
SuperTux:
Since it is the position not the arrival time that matters, I think Mark Burnett just wants teams to use their strategies to form their intersections to compete in difficult challenges. But no team did it in this way. :( (Country Boys just wanted to "lend a hand," not deliberately helped the girl's team.)
