The Amazing Race > The Racers
TAR 20: Art Velez and J.J. Carrell *Border Patrol Agents*
Best Loser:
If they are supposed to be the villains why were they shown sharing their prize with Bopper & Mark? Probably because that's something the editors would show no matter who did it.
starrynight:
They've become more 'villainous' as it's gone on it seems to me, earlier on they were more typical arrogant racers. :) But I wonder why they didn't just do that off camera or even just tell them after the race had ended. I suppose the money they had won was still fresh in their minds at that moment and supposedly they thought Mark and Bopper had been eliminated. Though I'm still not sure the production would have them promising money apparently in sympathy with someone being eliminated and then just reveal to them they hadn't been eliminated, as it could get a bad reaction as if they had been fooled.
kevin2012:
"Guys can't dance like chicks do, it's just not the same"
are they blind or something? can't they see that HALF of the bollywood dancers are male? who are just as capable as the females in performing the routine...
...or are they trying to imply that these guys aren't real men?...
god, they're irritating
apskip:
kevinint,
I think you have to take Art and JJ literally. They were stating that American females are typically more interesting to watch in a dance routine than American males. I think they have got That right, particularly with the specific males and females involved at this point in AR20. The Bollywood male ensemble dancers do have great skill, but Art and JJ were not focused on them.
Best Loser:
Women being better dancers than men isn't really that uncommon of an assumption, and I think you're both looking into it too hard. No, they weren't being misogynist, and no they weren't saying they liked looking at the women (after J.J. succeeded, Art said "women: 3, men: 1). I will state that the "Men can't dance!" shtick was only funny the first time, and it became a black hole of humor each time they repeated it.
