There's actually no delay tonight, CBS went to 60 Minutes on time at 7:30 pm ET, which means TAR will start on the east coast feed at 8:30 pm ET.

That is NOT on time, 60 min is a7PM start and TAR is an 8PM start normally. Looks like we are looking at a 42 minute delay.

Peach, at least two of the three late doubleheader games on CBS ended so that the CBS primetime schedule started at 7:30 pm EDT. Maybe your local market had the third game that must have ended later, and only those markets may be the ones having a later start.

Post by: Polaroid on October 20, 2013, 07:52:47 PM
Nicole & Travis depart 1st at 11:08 PM. Travel to Svolvaer, Norway by airplane and ferry. The next clue will be at the ferry terminal. Nicole thinks that being from Brooklyn helps her be tougher.

Jason & Amy depart at 11:14 PM. Amy says that Nicole & Travis are like mini mentors.

Nicole & Travis arrive at a flight agent. 8:55 AM is the first flight. Jason & Amy arrive to the flight agent too. 8:55 AM is the only flight so everyone is going to be on it...

Everyone is going to be on the same flight for the first time this race!

In Bodo, Norway, all teams will be on the same ferry. Ally & Ashley: "My face is frozen." "My knees are cold." Ally or Ashley have a funny confessional.

Brandon & Adam like doing outdoorsy things. And they like their beards.

Marie doesn't plan on giving away the EP until the end of the 5th leg. Afghanimals won't get it. Ice girls won't get it. Marie thought about giving it to Travis & Nicole...

Teams are on the ferry blowing in the wind! Yay.

The ferry docks past 11 PM!

Detour: Hang Your Heads or Hammer of the Cods
Hang Your Heads: String together 10 bundles of 6 fish heads each. Transport the bundles with wheelbarrows, then hang the bundles on drying racks.
Hammer of the Cods: Collect 15 pairs of cod from the 30 foot high drying racks. Then hammer them to make 1 kilo of fish turkey without the bones.

Yes, I think someone get the number of fish wrong (maybe Tim & Marie)

Post by: Polaroid on October 20, 2013, 07:55:38 PM
Brandon & Adam talk about how they used to be in boy scouts... but now they're in man scouts. :lol:

Teams are all trying to go to the fish factory... Tim & Marie get a taxi. Amy: "We're in the Arctic Circle... at 11 PM. Of course there aren't any taxis around." :lol: Brandon & Adam are going to run.

Tim & Marie arrive at the fish factory first. It's really gross... Just a bunch of cod heads...

Jason & Amy get a cab. Afghanimals and ice girls are walking. Amy calls the Afghanimals "ass-animals." :lol:

Brandon & Adam arrive at the fish factory. Marie: "They're going to be good at this! They do gross stuff and eat gross stuff all the time!"

Jason & Amy arrive at the fish factory. Ally & Ashley and Leo & Jamal are almost there. Nicole & Travis got a cab. Nicky & Kim still don't have a cab. Tim & Danny got a cab. Nicky & Kim are running...

Nicole & Travis arrive. Leo & Jamal are already dressed in the outfit. TIm & Danny arrive.

Marie miscounted the fish heads... They used 8 heads. Apparently Amy helped Marie... Amy tells Nicole & Travis it's 6 strings of 10 heads.

Leo & Jamal: "The closest thing I get to water is a shower." :lol:

Ally & Ashley are not liking it too much.

Tim & Danny and Nicky & Kim are doing hammer.

Tim & Danny say that they're used to this kind of work.

Tim & Marie are done. Marie screams at Tim to get the wheelbarrow.

Jason & Amy are done with the bundles and now they're transporting it. Brandon & Adam finish shortly after and now they begin transporting it while singing a song.

Tim & Danny have to carry the fish bundles on their neck/shoulder/back. It's getting heavy. Kim says it's good for her to be put out of her comfort zone.

Marie: "Tim was made for pushing this wheelbarrow!"

Afghanimals finish bundling it. Now they're going.

Travis can't run with his shoes. Afghanimals have a flat wheelbarrow wheel. Ally & Ashley finish bundling the fish.

Afghanimals are having a lot of trouble because of their flat wheelbarrow wheel...

Commercial.

It's 1 AM and it's not dark...

Afghanimals try pushing... they try lifting it... pushing it again...

Tim & Marie arrive at the drying racks. Only one team per pole... Tim & Marie are putting their bundles on a pole with no flag. Tim & Danny are done getting the bundles and they leave the drying racks.

Jason & Amy arrive at the drying racks. HAHAHAHA TIM & MARIE GET REJECTED. STOP AMY STOP HELPING THEM.

Brandon & Adam see the flag marked pole and they start loading.

HAHAHAHA JASON & AMY ARE OUT OF THE DETOUR IN 1ST. Proceed to Henningsvaer. Brandon & Adam finish the detour in 2nd. Marie is getting pretty crazy... :lol: Brandon & Adam leave them. "I don't need your damn Express Pass!"

MARIE IS SO MAD. I LOVE THIS. Brandon & Adam start mocking them. :lol:
Title: Re: TAR 23 East Coast EP 4 SHOW updates and commentary **Please read the rules**
Post by: Polaroid on October 20, 2013, 08:11:11 PM
Jason & Amy tell Nicole & Travis to get a pole with the marked flag. :lol: Jason & Amy pass Afghanimals and they like seeing them struggle. Amy tells ice girls that they look sexy. :lol:

Marie is pretty pissed off at Tim. Marie realizes the end of the pole after looking at Nicole & Travis' pole. Marie starts shouting at Tim.

Nicole & Travis finish the detour in 3rd. Tim & Marie are finally out of the detour in 4th. LOL. :funny:

Marie: "Iceghanimals, together forever!" omg lol.

Tim & Danny finish delivering their cod and now they start hammering.

Post by: Polaroid on October 20, 2013, 08:14:07 PM
Nicky realizes there's bugs on her... They're still getting the fish.

Afghanimals and ice girls are the drying racks. Ice girls done in 5th. Afghanimals finish in 6th.

Jason & Amy and Brandon & Adam get into these outfits for their high speed boat ride.

Tim & Marie and Nicole & Travis arrive at the boat place.

Brandon & Adam get off the boat first. Roadblock: Who's the biggest swinger?
Roadblock: Bungee jump off a bridge. Once they're ready, unclip and plunge into the Arctic ocean. Then swim to their next clue.

Post by: Polaroid on October 20, 2013, 08:17:28 PM
Kim thinks she dropped the clue... Then she realizes it was in her mouth the entire time, LOL. :funny:

Tim & Marie and Nicole & Travis and Ally & Ashley all get their roadblock clues. Afghanimals get it too.

Brandon is doing the roadblock. Brandon & Adam used to jump off bridges and hang off of them when they were kids... Okay. He jumps off and unclips. He starts swimming. "He can swim like a seal! Like a shark! LIKE A SEAL SHARK!"

Brandon & Adam are out of the roadblock in 1st. Proceed back to shore where they will go into a Ford Ranger. Then they will hook up their truck with a sled loaded up with a boulder. They have to pull it far enough to reveal their next clue and some coins, which they will need for later in the race.

Jason jumps off the bridge... and he's just swiming back and forth. The ball he needs to pull to unclip himself is too high...

Commercial.

Also better for Timmarie to stuff up now than later in the race where it will be more costly.

Post by: Polaroid on October 20, 2013, 08:25:12 PM
Jason is having trouble reaching the ball because when he jumped the knots got really tight... but he manages to pull it and he gets the clue.

Marie says that she's not sure Tim has enough upper body strength to pull this off... But Tim has no trouble with it, lol. Marie: "Are you cold?" Tim in the confessional: "It's the Arctic. Of course it's cold." :funny:

Nicole finishes the roadblock in 4th.

Nicky & Kim are still dragging their cod... Nicky is a cod queen according to Kim. They're finally at the fish factory... omg LOL. KIM'S HAIR IS CAUGHT BY THE FISH. HAHAHAHA. :funny: They are too funny. They proceed to the hammering station. Tim & Danny are still there. Kim's so angry at the cod that she begins to take out her aggression on them.

Tim & Danny finish the detour in 7th.

Brandon & Adam have both been in construction so this task was easy for them...

Ally: "It's a weird feeling knowing your friend's jumping off a bridge..." LOL. Ally & Ashley are done the roadblock in 5th.

Tim & Danny arrive at the roadblock. Nicky & Kim are still doing the detour. Kim: "Does it look like I got stronger?" :lol:

Leo & Jamal are out of the detour in 6th.

Tim & Danny are out of the roadblock in 7th.

Brandon & Adam finish chaining together their rock. They pull their rock far enough with the Ford... They get their clue and coins. Pit stop: Viking Longhouse. Teams will have to drive themselves there. The last to check in may be eliminated.

Jason & Amy arrive at the Fords. Tim & Marie arrive. Jason's good with the chains because of his business. Marie says that neither her or Tim realize what they're doing... Jason & Amy move their rock sled far enough. Marie asks a question and Tim says yes a couple of times... Marie: STOP SAYING YES. :funny:

Jason & Amy are done the task. TIM & MARIE DIDN'T PICK UP THEIR CLUE.

Nicky & Kim arrive at the roadblock.

Nicole & Travis finish the rock task. Ally & Ashley and Afghanimals arrive. The trucks are stickshift and Ally & Ashley are about to back up into a ditch...

Leo & Jamal get their clue and coin bag. Ally & Ashley hit each other with their helmets accidentally. :lol: Tim & Danny get their clue and coin bag. Ally & Ashley get their clue and coin bag.

Nicky & Kim are still at the roadblock... "YOU LOOK LIKE A BANK ROBBER!" :lol: Nicky & Kim don't want to stop seeing the world...

Brandon & Adam are currently in first... Jason & Amy hope Brandon & Adam get lost so they can get first...

But nope. Brandon & Adam are team #1. They won $5000 each!!! THE OTHER NEWS IS... KEEP ON RACING!!! Phil hands them their clue.

You just have to guess someone will U-turn Tim and Marie. It would be a great strategy to either get them eliminated or to flush the express pass out.

I don't think so... Timmarie are trainwreck so they'll probably want to keep them around.

Woo! Looks like we get a new U-Turn board without the touch screens  :wohoo:
THIS featured on an RFF TAR frame. Haha. The U-Turn and Yield boards are more fun when teams can write on, comment on, and simply tear team's pictures.

Norway, WOW. Norway delivers! A midnight leg that looks like the day and this is why TAR is amazing! They show us things on the other side of the world we have always heard but never see, and now they deliver straight to us viewers!

I like the Detour; it shows what the local working class is doing... although I feel that not pounding the fishes would make both Detour tasks more equal. The boat ride was splendid and the jump from the bridge was never meant to be exciting, but more of like ZOMG the teams are doing such fun and crazy stuff in Norway!

And then we have a product placement, which actually is decent and reveals a bag of coins (may be meant for Leg 5) as well as a map to the pit-stop! Awesome or what!

Loved that this whole episode teams were changing positions throughout as well. Tim and Marie were first, then fourth, then third, then fall behind again. Brandon and Adam were so consistent throughout! Jason and Amy are such a sweet team and helping out everyone (except Tim and Marie and Afghanimals/Ice Crew), NOBODY HELPING MARIE <3, Tim and Danny being positive, helping the Ice Crew girls! Leo and Jamal struggling... :funny: Ashley and Ally enjoying the leg and coping fairly well, Nicole I WANT THE EXPRESS PASS moment and finally, Nicky and Kim completely failing throughout the leg. :funny:

SO. MUCH. DRAMA. <333

Double U-TURN next week, more epic tasks and OMG producers are so evil! Making this a TBC will kill some of the weaker teams. :oh :stare They are literally racing from night till morning?? :iok

Plus, whoever says the second express pass twist is lame... well you obviously need to have it on the hands of a team like Tim and Marie, who's selfish and not afraid to slut it out for some advantage and in the process annoy all the other teams.

I'M SO GLAD NICOLE AND TRAVIS didn't win the first leg. They would have given it to Jason and Amy and then this season will be an extreme borefest.

wait, this leg is either a an EL or a NEL, right? it's not KOR/TBC leg

probably the Bunnies or Timmarie arrived last and got NELed.

first of all, LOVING!!! Jamy hating on the "ass-animals". Two of my fav teams are now against the ass-animals.  :hoot:

also, I am so PISSED OFF!!!! that,Tim and Danny, helped the Ice Queens. Like what the f*ck? Leave'em alone! Let them struggle! Where's that "marriage" alliance that they're so proud of? why didn't the "ass-animals" helped them!

and I know most people are looking forward to what would Marie do with the second EP. But I bet she's just gonna give it to Travis and Nicole. Even if she didn't hand it on that moment, she would just give it to them somewhere in leg 5. She intended to give it to them anyway since Travis and Nicole messed up a 1st place in leg 1.

So Marie's kinda nice after all.  :funny:
but I am disappointed she didn't give it to Jamy or Oklahoma  :pity
Amy helped her at this leg's detour, and Danny helped her in that Roadblock in Santiago.  (:;) (:;) (:;)

Caution Double U-Turn ahead!!!
:ascared
and they're not Blind!!!  :ascared  :ascared :ascared

My first guess is that one of the female-female team or ass-animals used it to smoke out an Express Pass of a team, which is stupid, cause it's still leg 5 and it's safe to have a u-turn card in your back pocket, just in case another one pops out. An express is only valid until leg #8. Double u-turn popped out once in leg #10. Do the math!
Or, the trailing teams on the back of the pack used them on each other to avoid elimination.

Can't wait for Poland! When was the last time TAR went to Poland? or is it the 1st time?

i think this is like that moment last season when John and Jessica told us they didn't necessarily want to give Dave and Connor the 2nd EP, but ended up giving it to them in the end. same thing with Tim and Marie and Travis and Nicole. but anyway, it won't hurt to dream  :)

oklahoma seems struggling in that preview, my god please let them have an Express Pass in their fanny pack  :oh

Absolutely loved this leg! The Detour, Roadblock, everything! :hearts:

The Detour was amazing, I like how both tasks were related to each other in the way though I kinda though the tasks were uneven seeing the difficulty Tim & Danny and Nicky & Kim experienced, but nonetheless, it was fantastic and exceeded my expectations!

The Roadblock was good as well and it was an activity I would like to try as well. :)

Last but not the least, the Ford Challenge task. I liked the way on how they incorporated the "advertisement" of the car with the actual task, and somehow it caused some placement changes within the teams.

The location of the Pit Stop was also great! :hrt:

As of now, I'm looking forward to watching the Poland leg and I hope it will reach my expectations especially since it was last visited 12 seasons ago! :o

Nicky & Kim trainwreck <333
Tim & Marie, more of Marie <33333
Jason & Amy, please win the next leg <33333333

1. LOVE both Detour tasks! Although I think "Hammer of the Cods" looks harder than the other one, because it has two parts of task that look tough, not like the other one that not really physical other than the transporting part.
2. Finally, a Ford-related task that doesn't show up its hi-tech feature.
3. Love the Pit-Stop location!

Anyway, I remember Phil mentioned the use of the Viking coins later on the race.. Had the teams use it? ???

Love the ending song <333  :funny:

I loved it too! I was saying to myself during the fish head task that I would have been singing the Fish Heads song while I worked, so it was nice to see it at the end. Surprising, since it's a rather obscure song.

Great episode. Interesting tasks and an interesting location. A fair amount of drama, but it was drama is a good way - an annoying team messing up and getting panicky beyond what the situation calls for. I can't imagine Tim and Marie hanging on to their express pass for more than the next couple of episodes. Any time a task stumps them for 5 minutes, they are ready to pull out the express pass.

My one quibble is that the fish heads vs. the Hammer of the Cods (cute name) tasks were really imbalanced (or appeared to be). The fish heads looked much faster and I'm surprised they didn't all do that one. However, the editing may have made the other task look longer than it really was. Or it may have been the two weaker teams attempting it.

One other thing I observed: the midnight sun made it almost impossible to tell how far ahead the first teams were from the later teams based on the quality of the daylight. That might have been the most interesting thing about the leg. I'm sure that holding the leg in the middle of the night cut down on observations from the local people. I do recall we had a few sightings though. I'll bet TPTB were happy when the ferry arrival time set that up.

2. ALLY AND ASHLEY GET MORE AIRTIME
3. ALLY AND ASHLEY DIDN'T GET HELP FROM AFGHANIMALS
4. NO MENTIONS OF "RACE WIVES/HUSBANDS"
5. TIM AND MARIE: I  ACTUALLY LIKE THEM  :crazy:
6. THE TASKS!  :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:
7. MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, IN THE DAY!
8. AFGHANIMALS NOT GETTING MUCH AIRTIME (not that I hate them, but we needed a break from them)

I loved the Detour name:     The Hammer of the Cods    :funny:

Nordic significance:  Led Zeppelin-- The Immigrant Song

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.

On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing.

When the teams found the coins in the last RI, it was commented that they would need it later in the racer. We didn't see them in the pitstop, so maybe this would indicate a future task related to them? Either in the start of Leg 5, while still in Norway or even later on.
Otherwise that could mean an unaired task.

My bet is that they are meant to be used on a future leg, otherwise they would have edited out the explanation.

Best episode of TAR23 so far!!! :)
-It was midnight and it wasn't even dark.
-Brandon & Adam mocking Marie. :funny:
-A team made two mistakes that made them drop from first to last.
-A Route Info task, rather than the usual detour-roadblock leg.
-A "not-so-strong" team dominating the leg.
-The local time was shown after every commercial. :) It was great because we can see how long the teams were completing their tasks and how long the leg was, aside from showing us that it wasn't dark in the middle of the night. :)
-And most of all, the EP drama!!! :funny: It was so epic that I wish I have a short clip of that scene. :lol: At first I even thought that the 2nd express pass twist was lame, but after this episode, I wish the winner of the EP is a selfish team. :funny: The way Nicole explained it at the post-leg interview was amazingly perfect! :lol:

Tim & Marie. To me, it doesn't matter if it were another team, imo, it's sometimes fun seeing some teams fall from first to last in terms of careless mistakes. Also, it's not yet official that they're last, but assuming they need to go back and get the clue, they will fall behind (also assuming that the bunnies catch up). ;)

A couple of observations:

The NFL players probably landed in Lisbon at 23:15 which is after the first two teams started leg #4.

And since Phil did meet them at the airport it probably means that Phil had to be on the same flight as the teams to Oslo and Bodø. But then he probably cheated and flew into Solvaer on WF814 so he should have arrived at 18:01 which gives him about  5 hours lead on the teams to do his standups.
