Interesting ending and editors did attempt a very TAR style editing for who would finish first, but turns out there was a 3-hour gap between team that finished first and the second one.
Still miffed the 5th team wasn't included till the end.
3rd and 4th were almost a day behind top finishing teams. And Felix and Josh were almost not able to reach the finish line, cause they lacked the funds to head up to where the book was located, were not for the girls who had a healthy amount of budget left helping them. Do wonder how much of this were producers nudging, cause I still find hard that they'd spot the boys from the top floor.
Seems that the show has been picked up for a 2nd series, as the show ends with Tony and Elaine asking people to apply for the show.
Musicon:
The only team I liked won, so I'm happy. Relieved the father who's frightened of hamsters and goes on endlessly about his son didn't win.
The end was very Amazing Race edited so I could tell they were winning, the 'we can see them!!' is a typical thing to make viewers think it's close. They always seemed ahead, I did wonder if even the day to recuperate the bad back was just to make it a closer race. The moment at the end with money (Singapore money as well) needed for the elevator was a good touch. And yes most likely the producers did tell a team to give the last placed team money, but I don't mind that particularly.
Xoruz:
Overall it was a good season. I do think though that the first half was way superior to the second half. By that time, the show was repeating several story points especially with Darron & Alex and Josh & Felix. Also, I'm still not sure why they did one elimination point on episode two. At the same time, it's crazy that a replacement team won the whole season.
