Ep 1 East Coast SHOW updates and commentary **Please read the rules**

<< < (25/26) > >>

starrynight:
The first episode was terrible. Easy tasks, locations not that great, teams not that memorable and rushed even though hardly anything was in the episode. The only drama was finding a woman with an abacus.

And as the for the two million twist that only matters for one team anyway.  And really I'd rather they spend money on tasks and exciting locations.  Table tennis with a kid and eating tasks, and absailing a small way were hardly innovative and the whole program seemed very safe, streamlined and conservative.  A program for people with a very short attention span.

apskip:
nvm, it was covered last night by TAR commentary during the episode.

Oh my god guys. I know this sounds disgusting but I just checked up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasma this and actually... it's one of my favourite desserts and mind you, it's REALLY EXPENSIVE IN SINGAPORE. With each bowl costing up to $10 USD in Singapore.

 :lol: :lol: :lol:

It's really sweet if it goes with Bird Nest and just tastes like normal jelly. It's darn good for the skin as well! :lol:

Yes! I said after the first 5 teams arrived there were 7 women safe and only 3 men! That has to be a record for TAR.

I watched this early and kept saying, is this going to be a TBC episode. It was 4 tasks with introductions of all teams crammed into a one hour show. It was really unfortunate. I hope BVM and Phil are listening.

If they couldn't guarantee a 90 min premiere, then cut the amount of tasks. Was the repelling task at the beginning really necessary? Just make it a short foot race and then the drive to LAX.

And ya, didn't get to see much of the Escapes. We bought a blue 2013 Escape a few months ago, and I was dieing to see who got into the blue one.  :lol:

Personally, I think this pilot is stronger than the last season (season 20). Shanghai as a first city is beautiful compare to last. Double roadblock is great. We get to see some teams meltdown already. Only odd is the editing towards the last, when the last 4 teams were looking for the woman in abacus. Other than that, this episode was fantastic. I am so sad to see the lumberjack couple go, as I think they could contribute good show on tv. But then again, I love the Chippendales.
