Maanca:
I love that at least one team got the wrong kind of rolex. Best "read your clue" fail in a while 😂

Production knew what they were doing putting that task in the same area.

BourkieBoy:
Dubai was disappointing, but Uganda was good!

Those Reilly's HAVE to go!  :groan:

Thanks for all of your hard work Rachel, since Season 29! <3

And update if you can guys!!! It's a great experience!

ZBC Company:
Really like both legs how there I don't know why you guys don't like the Dubai leg I think this was a way to remote do bit Dubai the 1st visit to uganda you gonna I believe it should have been a second leg they're still going to Switzerland

Musicon:
Neither leg had a race to the mat which was strange.  While of course I liked some of the visuals of the first leg I do like it if the competitive element is still stressed more and it's not largely focused on sights.  I didn't mind the simulation instead of going down the building, that was probably the best and most difficult part of the leg.  The dinosaur leg looked funny but it didn't seem as difficult as it might have been.  The nightclub silent disco could have been good, but only having one person to find made it quicker than it should have been.  Much of the Dubai drama seemed to be about getting bad taxis.

The Ugandan leg definitely had more manual labour to it and so was a good contrast, probably had more drama as well.  The minaret steps provided the most natural drama, Janelle just completely lost it later.  Not sure why Floyd was allowed to let the food hit the floor and continue like that.  The camerawork in the head to head wasn't that great for me, maybe it was to make things less clear for suspense, but it annoyed.  And Phil stating the obvious or telling us when it was about to end wasn't helping the drama.

Not that unhappy with the results, Janelle and Britney didn't seem likely to challenge at the top, Elissa seems maybe stronger than Rachel (not sure why the non-competitor can help in the head to head though).  Too many remarks trying to make some social point shoehorned into the episode, about being gay or about being a mother.  All these setting an example statements always seem out of place.

dryedmangoez:
The Uganda Leg was much better than the Dubai Leg.
But the deleted scenes from the Uganda Leg seem so much more interesting and exciting than most of what made the episode.

And the Head-to-Head would've been great earlier in the Leg.
