Guess TAR 32 isn't the only season with drama from teams helping each other.

The knee came back to haunt Shay & Shani. Hard to get closer than that.

And thus ends the chance at a repeat win for Shay & Shani No returning TAR team has ever pulled it off twice. That'll quiet the comments on the Facebook page saying it was fixed for them to win.

Ben & Ori sure got lucky, though. Your taxi driver being pulled over by a cop would be like a team's worst nightmare when they're racing for last place.

Anyone have video of that footrace?

It's on the official Instagram page (theamazingraceisrael), but I'm translating it.

Geez, Omer. Turn down the volume, other people in the room need to do the task, too

Now we know how old Neta & Assaf are, it was missing from Wikipedia for some reason. He said to her in English, "How old are you? 23, same as us!"

[Xoruz]

Geez, Omer. Turn down the volume, other people in the room need to do the task, too

Can you blame her for hanging up?

I took the time to translate the dramatic/heartbreaking final scene from Saturday's episode if anyone's interested: https://streamable.com/58gi61

Did today's episode end before they reached the ecological reserve? My copy cuts off early...

Just two tasks, the reserve is tomorrow.

Yosiel having a random stranger hop into one of his selfies, lol. And of course he and Yael taking a selfie with their driver and making it his phone wallpaper!

Also re: the episode cutting off early, I have the last two minutes recorded, it's honestly not much other than Omer & Neta finishing their task + preview for next episode: https://streamable.com/lvp2j9

Thank you! It looked like Shani ran straight instead of left and that costed her a few seconds.

[Maanca]

Just the traditional recap episode today. Though normally they'd air these around the middle of the season before.

Race continues tomorrow.

[Maanca]

At first I wasn't too excited about half the season spent in Latin America, but this season has honestly been blowing TAR32 out of the water. Even when I can't understand a word of their language.

Fingers crossed for a HaMerotz LaMillion 9, someday.

The final 3 is revealed today! 

I'm most rooting for Yael & Yosiel to make it.

Welcome to the Black Parade by My Chemical Romance playing over the elimination montage gives me life

Yay for my faves Team YY in the final 3! Though I would have been happy for Ben & Ori, too. Would have rather Omer & Neta gone. They're a little annoying.

Unfortunate to Ben & Ori depart, but they sure got a great send off.

Hoping to see Yael & Yosiel take this one.

Q&A with producers.

https://13tv.co.il/item/mood/the-amazing-race/season-08/clips/k25ox-2088558/

Highlights

• Finish line segment has not yet been filmed.
• Producers needed a couple of hours to verify the Leg 10 finish.
• Philippines was the most fun to film. Netherlands and Armenia were the hardest due to winter.

...What? So is this season not going to have an end until Covid is over and they can go back? What are they airing on Tuesday?

The finish line segment is normally filmed in Israel about a week after the premiere to prevent leaks but that was during the second lockdown. The finale could be like 4 & 5 where teams found an empty mat and found out the results in Israel maybe this weekend.

[Maanca]

I hope so, lol. If they're airing the season, they have to reveal who won somehow. It's like reading a book and the last page is missing.

[jfarbzz]

When you think about it, this season's final 3 is a lot like TAR11, the first American all-star season:

Cousins from season 5, a team that finished 4th their first time racing, and a team that hadn't previously raced together.

Locals in the park: "Amazing Race?"
"Yes, Amazing Race! TV show!"

You'd never hear them be able to say that on the US version, lol. Those people would just be told they're filming a documentary or something.

They probably have to avoid being confused with another type of genre, with the changing booth and cameras. I think Neta & Assaf made a joke about that.
