The theme of this season is "Dominating the entire leg, but slipping up on the last task and allowing someone else to win the leg"

Very much so the best episode so far. It was the earliest that they had an equalizer in three seasons and felt more competitive. I do not want to know how all of the teams smelled by the end of the leg considering both Detour tasks involved manure. Sara & Artturi almost had it but struggled with the raban dance due to Sara having long nails. How to Mari & Joel keep getting away with this? This ending is up there with Rob & Amber in All Stars. Nina & Elsa elected to quit a task after struggling with dehydration and blisters and managed to survive the leg only to find out that Mari & Joel would have finished ahead of them if the teacher taught them the correct dance steps.

Rappelling down the Empire State Building was an impressive cinematic feat and definitely the highlight of the finale. (Did they actually rent out the whole building or did it just look that way from the edit?)

Seems like Joseph & Adam were slowed down most by transportation, but when you get over $500 in leg money for the finale, you should probably take that as a sign that you can afford to hold your taxi...

I was doing a crossword puzzle in another tab during the ad breaks while watching this episode It was the Los Angeles Times, not New York, but they're similar. It makes sense to do as a memory challenge. There must be some puzzle fans on the WRP staff.

What's not new is a visit to a baseball stadium during a finale, but what is new is that this was the first visit by TARUS to the Bronx. Staten Island is now the only non-visited borough.

Episode 5 - Sri Lanka

This was a great episode!

The tasks were demanding, though it's a bit sus to put them work with literal ****, when they obviously have some open small wounds etc, since they are in this kind of race. Infection risk.

And wow. They were literally covered in **** after the tasks.

The ending was interesting. Firstly, I thought also during this season, they have had the production coordinator or people from the production giving instructions to the "local judge", if the task is success or fail. Now it seems, that this is not the case always - which is good. However, I think it was good that they made this decision, when the judging was unfair.

Sad to see one of my fave teams to go. But glad to see Mari still in the race!

I think all the teams are at least likable. The other teams are starting to paint a picture about Maria&younger, that they are not helpful? It seems that many of the teams think, that they are not helping and are rude - so they do not want to help them vice versa. Maria seems to be more and more aggressive or at least passive-aggressive, as the season progresses.

I wonder if the tune played at one point was truly from Sri Lanka, or from India ...

Rachel, hopefully you'll be back to live-post Season 39, whenever CBS decides to drop it?

(Not in the spring, by the looks of it)

Unfortunately, I will still be traveling for work in 2026 and Wednesdays are virtually impossible now since Central time airings happen whenever I am still on the timesheet or commuting. If they go back to airings on Sundays, I will certainly make this a priority.

Got around to watching the NYC finale tonight, and in spite of the teams being pretty much deadlocked this entire leg, I thought this leg had a fairly strong set of moments. Visiting and rappelling down the Empire State Building is a huge deal (surprised there wasn't a King Kong reference anywhere), the Cookie Monster and Oscar the Grouch cameos were pleasant crossover network surprises to see, rolling the carts down the streets through pedestrian traffic, and the cool way they handled the memory task as a crossword puzzle, excellent job tying back into the newspaper culture New York City helped incubate.

Congrats to Jas & Jag for powerhousing through this season, and although this season isn't among my top half of picks, I'm glad it had its tolerable share of highs even though the lows hit rock bottom occasionally. Even now, I am not understanding the executive decision to pair "European Adventure" and "Big Brother" - one concept should've been dropped before this even started. It's doing way too much for no real reason or gain.

If I could personify a gif to represent my feelings toward this season:
