TAR 20: Mark Jackson and William "Bopper" Minton *Best Friends*
starrynight:
No, I don't mind Sucks at all and never complained about Nary and Jamie being made fun of anywhere. Looks like your guess wasn't too good.
I think there have been others worth rooting for, such as in the later stages Brendon and Rachel, Dave and Rachel, Nary and Jamie. In the earler stages you could probably add the clowns, not sure about Misa/Maiya as hardly saw anything of them. It's often difficult to judge the first team that gets eliminated.

Also to think you can change a country just by being on the race I really don't think is very realistic. It's making too big a claim. Most people will be happy to see them as individuals profit from being on it, but that's it. And don't think I am unsympathetic to Bopper's daughter, I have asthma myself and have suffered over the last decade and still do. People tend to be ignorant and arrogant to you over it, even doctors. They just give you an inhaler and tell you to go away however bad your condition is. Nothing on an entertainment show will change anything in any country.

He said "county", not "country". Other than that, I don't really care if you like them or not.
starrynight:
I'm not sure you even change a county by being on this program really. Maybe they can get more attention on their fight against the people who have polluted the environment in their locality. Certainly they will get help individually (already have) and I think people will be more interested in them as individuals than on larger issues, as that's what I think the show is really about.

Thanks for the link! I can't watch this show here so it was interesting to see! :)
Sorry to hear about Mark losing his job though. :(
Glad they got a personal check out if it good for them. :tup:
I do think that 'because you were so entertaining' was a little bit offensive to say to them, because sure they were joking around a bit but mostly pretty serious too. But I guess it wasn't intended badly, and glad to hear they got something out of the race except for the experience.
Think they'll be back on the next AllStars TAR in a few years time, probably. :)
