Simply a heads up, I will be attending a friend's wedding tonight, so I will not be available for live update assistance/reactions/the after-episode review during primetime this evening. However, I will be watching the episode tomorrow morning on the CBS website (commercials and all) and, if anybody else is interested, the post-show review will be shared on this thread a.s.a.p. Here's to hoping for a fantastic episode!

Previously on The Amazing Race.

8 teams continued racing through Zimbabwe. Expresspass decision.
Paparazzis in last place.
In the end a pair of clue reading mistakes led to the trackstars downfall

I think the point of the first roadblock is to determine who to do the 2nd one right?
Is there something related to the fitbit?
It seems strange that there ask all contestants to monitor the fitbit after the roadblocks

Krista and Tiffany who crossed the road  :stare :funny: (:;) I know this road and there is a lot of car so it's really dangerous to cross these road outside of the crosswalk.

The detour with the rap song was horrible for my ears, the french pronunciation of the americans is really bad. However, a lot of french don't speak English or a few, and the English pronunciation of french is also bad!

Wow... Diana is the perfect example of a racer that goes from incredibly boring to so much character :lol: Was not expecting this arc from them!

she's like last season's Aly who suddenly embraced her inner goddess.

When I visited Paris I spent like 30 minutes trying to find how I was supposed to cross without getting run over. Also yeah, nobody I talked to spoke english or spanish and I didn't speak a word of french  :funny:

The Roadblocks from Legs 4-6 have been so similar imo. This better be for a memory challenge :lol: They've been so linear though & it's gotta stop.

I think this Detour was the best one of the season so far, though that's not saying much. It wasn't amazing, but neither side seemed extremely fake (remember that Detour from Leg 2 where they had to decorate that horse? :groan: ) and both had something to offer.

Love that Justin & Diana have this arc going on. It's a change from those "perfect" teams like Misti & Jim (post-Leg 4), Bates & Anthony, Rachel & Dave (although it seems like they argued a lot more than what we saw on TV), etc.

:hearts: Tiffany & Krista in 2nd and :( @ Cindy & Rick getting screwed after making up so much time wth

Tanner & Josh don't even seem like a dominant M/M team anymore...

Actually I liked this leg although not amazing from last leg

2 RB in 3 first task was kinda weird because it made the first RB useless... And the RBs themselves were just linear high task with the second RB were better because it involved eyes and memory...

The detour itself was very decent because both were very challenging and needed skill... Not a luck based task so it was <33333

This leg had so many surprises and suspense... I was surprised Diana arguing very glam at Justin  :funny: She rarely talked for first five leg and she embraced some goddess to Justin and it was  :funny:

And what I really surprised was Denise and James Earl stumble... :ascared :( they did really good and didn't make a mistake in previous legs and all spun out when touched Paris lol... Denise wasn't. Eminem so...  :umn: I tough Logan/Chris will felt behind lol...

And Germany ??????? :funny: :funny: Who did said that lol :lol:

Just saw the ep lol <3

TBH I got bored with the editing a little bit? (particularly at the plane Roadblock and the 2nd train teams scrambling to find the Detour clue's music really sucked and didn't feel exciting or suspenseful at all)

But it was actually pretty fun! I loved this leg, hopefully this is an upward trend towards a solid season with an awful start. (TAR23 lol.)

Tiffany & Krista (JAYWALKING through a busy street <3 OWNING all the tasks <3 JUMPING at the locals <3 <3 <3 :lol:)

Denise & James-Earl (Can they be the next Rosetta Stone speakers for the French language <3 SURVIVE PLS)
Kelsey & Joey

I barely passed four years of French in high school, including AP French and even I could tell their pronunciation was absolutely horrible.  Teams should have been turned away at the Road Block, even though none of the words on the ground had the accents.  But at the rap, yikes!  They were mumbling and slurring through just like Denise, but still passed.  It was even worse when the lyrics on screen were obviously not what the teams were rapping.

That was TAR Philippines S2-levels of leniency.  (Props if you know what I'm talking about. lolol)

Nice leg! I think it's the best leg of the season at the moment, for me.

The bad thing is that I don't want to see Denise and James Earl being eliminated. :( Let's hope the last team of this KOR won't be eliminated, like the last one.

From the updates alone, I am now very interested in watching this episode today. :trampb: Sounds like I missed a fun leg with lots of French mispronunciations, drama, and great moments. I like the TAR12 Taiwan-style route in this leg: taking a train to a different city for a stunt task, then travel back to the inner city on train again for the remainder of the leg.

Post by: Platrium on October 31, 2015, 08:30:30 AM
Before I read any of the commentaries...

I decided not to wake up early because I just had a busy week and I needed sleep, but what I have to say about the episode: It was somewhat underwhelming. :gnome

I'm glad the focus on the rivalry was lost. :lol: That's a good thing at least.

The roadblocks this leg were similar to the roadblocks of the last 2 legs. One required looking for something from a vehicle with wings, the other was a bungee jump. I don't get why production decided on using these as roadblocks. :gaah:

The detour was fine though. The rapping detour reminded me of the Austrian roadblock in TAR23. They both require language and musical skills, and such tasks like these are rare. The other detour was an attention-to-detail, which is common but good in my opinion as long as it's not overdone.

Only a few moments interested me, so it was an underwhelming episode, but I like how the Paparazzi fell behind on a simple roadblock while not being eliminated at the end. :lol: I like teams falling behind while being able to catch up to others. The struggle of Denise & JE added some flavor to the episode too. I also like how the Cheerleaders are improving! :hearts: I wish ChacAttack made it to the 1st train. It would've been fun to see them compete against Justin & Diana while the latter team was struggling. Meanwhile, poor Justin & Diana winning 3 legs but only winning 1 prize overall.

That's all I can say. The preview from last week wasn't exciting, and this episode wasn't too. :( The good news is that I will get to see the teams race at late afternoon and hopefully at night. :hearts: I miss night legs, and I just realized that this race never had teams racing to the pit stop at dark yet. Hopefully, next week will be better. :hoot:

I actually see their edit VERY differently.
 
I have seen nothing that paints them in a bad light.
 
Justin has clearly had the SUPERFAN edit. That is his casing hook, it is what got them casted, so of course that is what will be their storyline.
 
They have been showing how his super-enthusiasm has annoyed the others, how it comes across as OTT...but that is not a bad light..it is more an edit of the others' response to him. Again, part of his storyline.
 
Now they are showing Diana emerging from her editing cocoon, with some occasional sparks and differences of opinion. Again, not a "bad edit", just showing some real life feelings and emotions. I see her standing up more for tasks choices, and I say go for it!! She is more than holding up her end, she has done two tasks that had to be a extraordinarily difficult for someone with a fear of heights. Both without drama or complaints.. just asking for some extra kisses before. I think their edit is showing us how the race could be stimulating some relationship growth. A favorable storyline.
 
From my point of view this is all interesting to watch. Why do the other teams react to Justin the way they do? How is their relationship growing? None of which I perceive as a bad edit. Just telling the story as it unfolds, but I think it has been fair to date.
 
JMO, I am enjoying watching them in action!

That's because you are biased in the first place already. I can easily find loads of comments about people who has something to say about Justin.

There is no way you can call Justin and Diane's edit positive in anyway. Anyone who really likes them the most as compared to the other teams please jump forward. There will be one or two, but not majority.

And that's the point I'm trying to make, that people will prefer other teams more than them, and if Justin and Diane wins, the whole season will be pretty much be underwhelming. Because honestly, the outcome of the race affects the whole season a lot.

Unless Justin suddenly really get a redeeming sort of edit. My gut feeling tells me Tanner and Josh has a high chance of bagging this.

I would've butchered it too. :stare But when I read it first from the roadblock title, I think I read it properly. It's probably because of the accent marks not appearing on the words on the ground, but even with the accent marks, not everyone can pronounce it properly. :stare

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

Post by: RachelLeVega on October 31, 2015, 07:27:44 PM
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

So the team came first in KOR leg had no prize any more? Justin and Diana won last two KOR then received nothing.

:( 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.

Has Ford dropped out as a sponsor? Usually we'd be hearing "teams will choose an all-new Ford..." yada yada, but no mention of them this season :P

They would have been in the credits by now. So sadly, I would say yes.

So, we'll get less self-driving leg? :ascared

Disappointed, that there are no self-driving legs. If Ford dropped out as sponsor then they just should get other brands as cars. In previous seasons, contestants got to drive Mercedes Benzes, Nissans, Toyotas, Opels... Also disappointed that there are no NEL's and Speedbumps.

It's really sad that there may be no more self-driving (at least for this season). It's like taking away the Roadblocks or the Detours. It doesn't feel right without their inclusion.

Didn't Blair & Hayley get their trip to Goa as prize while they encountering Final 4 KOR? :lol: I think it depended on the agreement with the sponsor.

But Ford is not sponsors for this season made me feel sad since Cars are still the best prize for the winning leg and I'd love to see at least 3-4 self-driving legs per season. Hopefully the next two legs somehow featuring self-driving or else it'll be really disappointing. :(

There's also a chance for NO self driving the entire race

A team was seen taking a bus in HK

This race is NOT for anyone scared of heights. I think only Leg 3 had no heights task (Leg 2 had the sideways tango, I guess that counts??)

I'm not fluent in French, but hearing the mispronunciations made me both cringe and laugh (not necessarily at the same time  :lol: ). Kelsey's first rap attempt especially made me laugh :funny:

So far no outstanding legs, but this was a good one as a leg (as opposed to last episode which works as a tour itinerary  :lol: ). Poor Justin & Diana for their second KOR win, but it's nice to see Diana getting some screentime even though it's her arguing with Justin, just nice to see that she's isn't totally quiet.

The focus of the season at the beginning was Justin & Diana vs. Tanner & Josh. Now, it's more on Logan & Chris  :lol: They sound very pessimistic though  :lol: :groan:

Over all, this was a really weak episode in my opinion. The first Roadblock was rushed, had no effect on anything and the bungee jump was a very simular task to the gorge swing that we saw last week. And can I say, the FitBit sponsorship is TERRIBLE!!! I don't care about the teams' heart rates, so basing what felt like a whole leg around it, with a task involving it next week as well, is  :gaah: Also, the biplane Roadblock is very simular to the microlight plane Roadblock that we had, ONLY TWO FREAKIN LEGS AGO! The first part of the episode kind of felt like a redo of some of the tasks in the previous two legs.

The detour was decent, however. But the bad start of the episode made me lose some interest in the episode overall. Without the team dynamics and partially the detour, this leg would have gone down as one really bad episode in my eyes. Or that will say, considering the leg in comparison to the season up to this point. Had we had this leg in another season it could have been okay. Still, the large focus on the FitBit and the Roadblock that did not have any effect on the result, makes me disappointed, because I know that the race can do much better. Don't give us this crap  (:;), when you have the potential to do something great  :)

I know no French, but fraternite, egalite, liberte are so similar to fraternity, equality, liberty I think I would have said them better.
The French rap I have no rhythm and terrible pronunciation. Would have loved to see the dancing brothers at that one.

I kind of like how this season is trying to try things outside of the normal formula, we had two RBs and a detour in the same leg and both RBs will affect something in the following leg. Even though some challenges seem redundant, I like how the producers are messing with the predictability of the race.

The video shows Denise and James Earl borrowing a phone and getting the address for La Coupole restaurant. However, when they got to that address, there was a La Coupole restaurant but no sign of anything related to TAR filming. Apparently there is more than one restaurant named La Coupole and they went to the wrong one. The video ends with them confused and wondering what to do next.

Maybe the guy used a navigation app instead of a regular search engine. La Coupole (diner) was closer to Montmartre than La Coupole (restaurant). Here are the two locations:

This episode is pretty fun. However, its entertainment is probably coming from Detour and team messing things up. Both RB are cool and I'd love to try both of them but it's really boring to watch 4 consecutive 'Dealing with Height' RB in a row (And the concept of the task is super similar to the task before is not helping either). The Detour is hard and really detail-oriented in different way so I really enjoy it. So kudos to WRP for that task!

Just really wish that all teams were bunching up at the train from the airport. So Kriffany can slay all other teams can claim their deserving first place! <33
