TAR 27 Ep 6 LIVE SHOW Updates & Commentary!
gamerfan09:
Justin & Diana have a Misti & Jim edit lol (Although I love the latter 1000000000000% more).
Both teams dominated early, the guy got on the nerves of some teams, they had a completely trainwreck leg (Leg 1 for Justin, Leg 4 for Misti & Jim). And now we're at the point where they completely lose momentum but in a more OTT way (with the fighting).
If I had to try and detect a winner, it would definitely be Tiffany & Krista. They're really getting the underdog edit right now, and while it is sometimes wrong (look @ Mike/Rochelle last season), the other two All Female winners have gotten the same thing. (Amy & Maya/Kisha & Jen).
Just my two cents :tup:
Additionally, does anyone think the constant focus on the Fitbit cards this leg means someone loses it next week? :O

Finally, I get to watch TAR in peace, but I always thought of the show whenever I took a sip of sparkling champagne at the event last night.
LEG 6 (Zimbabwe --> France) EPISODE REVIEW
Drink: Champagne from last night's party
Without even the slightest hesitation, we were smacked in the face with another bungee swinging Roadblock in Zimbabwe! This episode sure started off "swinging". (input bad pun laugh)
1st ROADBLOCK: (Who wants to give Batoka Gorge's lesser known cavity a chance?)
I really don't see the point of this task other than to promote the FitBit. However, I enjoyed the view from beneath the bridge. Next, please.
1st ROADBLOCK SCORE: 6.5/10
And parallel to TAR1's first episodes, everyone was immediately en route to Paris and then on a train to another aviation service. That was probably more transportation shown than TAR22's Swiss train-mania.
2nd ROADBLOCK: (Who is ready to mispronounciate every word?)
Hearing the leniency the judge gave for atrocious French grammar was almost horrifying (Happy Halloween? :stirtp:). But I kind of expected that when the words were void of all accent marks. Other than that, a very basic, high-flying - yet cringeworthy - double Roadblock.
2nd ROADBLOCK SCORE: 6/10
Justin & Diana kept a giant lead ahead everybody else until here: (points to map) Also, I loved how everybody went pass the White Phantom at the front of the walkways.
DETOUR: (Go Rappin' or Get Crackin')
This Detour kept reminding me of scenes from the Mr. Bean's Holiday Vacation movie from both of these options. :funny: Finally, French receives some justice from this leg with a rigorous language lesson. Although the music video editing was a bit much, I loved how teams were able to struggle with the pronunciations. I am surprised some of them didn't decide to shuck seafood with their "butchering skills" from the previous task. :lol: Speaking of that, I would have loved more crab shucking scenes. The edit was kind of bias toward the rapping Detour.
DETOUR SCORE: 9/10
And another Switchback Pit Stop after going to Pont Alexander III, the Arc de Triomphe! And hold on a second... the leg isn't over again? :ascared
OVERALL: 8/10

:( It's called bad luck, but I don't think it's fair too since there used to be a prize back then.

I remembered in TAR7, for every 3rd episode (if you split the double leg in India into two episodes), no first place prize was given. Lynn and Alex, Uchenna and Joyce and Ron and Kelly (x2) didn't receive a prize in those episodes, while Rob and Amber came in first only in the episodes that gave out the prizes. I remembered that led to one member in Sucks saying that the race was biased against gays, veterans and blacks.

Also, in TAR 25 Leg 11, there was no prize given for Brooke & Robbie for coming in first place.
