I think it will be good for the Emmy's who care more about that stuff than doing phenomenal tasks. It will be fine.

They will love it.

It was a horrible leg for us fans (mostly design-wise), but it's definitely a top-tier episode for an Emmy.

I'm generalizing of course. While there may be some superfans who liked it, I think many did not.

I think many people here did not like that episode, mainly because editing and what I said before. I find many fans on this site like to see challenging tasks that really shake up placement order not ones that have no impact on them.

The HK/Macau episode is a much better choice.

Another reason the Chamonix ep is a bad choice is if it does win an Emmy, Bertram and Co. will be encouraged to do more of the same types of Legs: Beautiful scenery, horrible Leg design.
