why do you call dan a "big baby"?

All of them are annoying except Mark&Bill and Toni&Dallas,i was hopping they reach the final three.Terence is all about me,me,me Sarah has the patient of a saint.The blondes honestly are clueless i'm so glad there out. Kelly and Christy they are trying to show they are strong women but they have just been really really lucky.Nick&Star i hope karma beseige them soon on the race.Tina she yaks a lot ,i know Ken cheated on her but i feal sorry for him especially on the India leg.I love this show ,i watch it live stimulicast at 9 a.m. here in Singapore.I have been a fan from season 1,how about another all-star season this time chosen by fans or special on where are all the past races now ,a lot of fans must be wondering!

This is absolutely the most annoying cast of all time. I swore before the show started this evening that if Kelly and Christy won I would never watch again. Thankfully they were eliminated! What happened to the people and personalities that you could root for?! Instead of picking a favorite to win I find myself rooting for the next most annoying couple to be kicked off. Thanks to Dan's arrogance and idiocy I am sure that he and Andrew will be the next to go, but really what's the fun in that. I would like to see people with some sense of integrity on this show. Of course we want the drama too but please you don't have to go so far to the bottom of the barrel, it makes this show much more like Real World Road Rules than The Amazing Race. America is a joke to the international community and these cast of characters simply add fuel to that fire. I have about 2 hours of t.v. time a week and I won't be wasting an hour of it on Amazing Race if things don't change. On a side note : Thank goodness for Christy and Kelley's departure this evening. Karma's a bitch and so are they! I bet their Ex Husbands are watching and congratulating themselves over and over again for divorcing these two. They are trash through and through and their actions on The Amazing Race stunk worse than an street in India ever could.

I don't know if this season is the MOST annoying...Last season: the couple that got eliminated just before the final 3...and it was her birthday!!! I was so happy that they got eliminated that I did a happy dance!!! They were the most annoying, by far!!!!!!!I'd like to see Toni and Dallas in the final 3...I also think that Nick and Star have a bunch of karma coming up to slow them down...Anyway, still one "yield" out there, and ??? one more "non-elimination leg" ??? We already know that the final "fast-forward" is next week!!!

Didn't the preview show Nick grabbing the clue out of Dan's hand? I don't think he would have tried that if it was Tina who had the clue in her hand.

My favs are Starr and Nick, Tina and Ken, and Toni and Dallas. As they are who I predict to be in the final three. I can't stand that little whinny boy Terrance, but I do like Sarah and I hope that after the race she dates a real man, not some boy looking for a mommy.

In my opinion this is the worst Amazing Race ever, there are no teams that I am rooting for or despise as in previous "Races". I hope it doesn't mean the end of the show. The Amazing Race is my favorite show on TV. I think the casting directors dropped the ball this time. I was glad to see the team of divorced girls eliminated last night. They never read the clues and wasted so much time. My sister and I vow to always read the clue thoroughly if ever given that chance! Still hoping to be chosen with my sister! Better look at previous applicants. My sister and I "Team KO" would be one of those teams that fans would look forward to seeing each week.

I cannot stand Nick and Starr!!!! I really hope they do not win. They lie and smile and think it is ok. They borderline cheat, in my opinion. I don't care who wins, as long as it isn't them. The other teams don't even realize how nasty the two of them are. Wait till they watch the show for themselves, they won't look at Nick and Starr the same again. I would like to Nick and Starr get what is coming to them, an elimination.

Whoa, hold them horses. HTH do they boderline cheat? Just because they don't help the other teams? Because they keep information secert? IT's a game, and if I was playing I would do the same. They are always polite to the other teams and don't bad mouth people, as far as we know. THe only team they ever talk about wanting to beat is the divorcees, and they've done that now! Go Nick and Starr!

My, you have a high opinion of yourself! If you are ever so lucky to be on TAR they will find a way to characterize you and your sister and any minor or major fight/incident you have will be a focal point of an eppy. I do agree this TAR has the worst players ever...I mean look at whom I rooting for>>>Nick/Starr and Ken/Tina

I understand it is a game, but bold-face lying is not cool. They have undermined more than just one team. Hello, this past episode. They acted like they were helping out Dallas and Toni ONLY to save face and because they would not have been able to get away with it. That speaks volumes to me as to who they really are as people. How people interact and handle competition gives you true insight into their values and who they are as a person. I don't think anyone should be rewarded for such behavior.

I thought they did exactly the right thing. They are a couple of nice kids. Too bad you can't see that.

The Amazing Race is by far the best show on TV. I always look forward to it, I have been a fan since season 1. I agree that this season has to be the worst cast by far. I wish someone else would come in first besides Nick & Starr or Ken & Tina. Let someone else win the first place prize. I hope Toni & Dallas win.

I'm praying Nick&Starr get eliminted soon,i can't stand them but they are such a strong team.Mentally and physically strong and alert.Kelly&Christy are just too bitchy ,from the start of the race they keep misreading their clue thats stupid.

I agree with you. Lying in this game is telling someone the clue is over that hill when it is the opposite direction. True, saying "I haven't found it yet" is a lie, but in the game saying "Yes, I found it" gives the other team information (which way you just came from is the right way to go) and is therefore hurting your cause (which, by the way, is to win a $1M). This lie is "You have to find it yourself without help from me".With regard to this past episode: Nick and Starr were heading back to the task start flag after figuring out what the tags looked like. That obviously took a few minutes. Yes, they understood that telling Toni and Dallas they had not found anything would gain them nothing as the pair would just see where they were looking and follow along. Had they already been halfway down the road with the proper numbers written down, I'm sure they (and I) would say 'no' and look busy until T&D were out of sight before they continued. As it was, the teams were 1 & 2 and they HAD to know it. N&S started 7 minutes ahead of K&C, 15 ahead of T&D and 36 ahead of T&S in 4th place. You KNOW they pay attention to how long it takes each team to get to the mat after they finish a leg. They both went through the 'paint ceremony' really fast and didn't see K&C at the 'telephone tag' task so they knew K&C got delayed somewhere. So it was the better STRATEGY for Nick and Starr to hook up with Toni and Dallas DURING the roadblock and pretty much insure a proper set of numbers the FIRST time so they could keep their lead. You notice no one suggested hanging together for the trip to the mat.Now it will be interesting to see just how aggressive Nick really is in the next episode with the clue grabbing. The previews can be intentionally misleading. Does he intentionally steal a clue from the Frat boy or are everyone's hands all grabbing at the same time and he just happened to grab one that someone else had just pulled? Think about it, other than the places where you pull a number to get in line, getting something 1/2 second before someone else isn't going to gain you any time in the race.
