Amazing Race

Who will be the fifth team eliminated from THE AMAZING RACE 13?

oh no, this totally stinks, seriously, all the teams I like keep getting eliminated. I was so disappointed again. Now it is full on rooting for Toni and Dallas. I have nothing against ken and Tina or Nick and Starr, but the divorcees don't see to nice and could terry bring sarah down any further. I am totally shocked that strong willed woman from new york, a often ruthless town, allows her partner to get upset about going fast them him. I say if you don't like it, Terence pick up your pace!

Ty & Aja eliminated unfairly. Terrance & Sarah should have been eliminated in episode 5 because they got the ticket in New Zealand. A 30 minute penalty should have been applied at the end of the race in Cambodia not at the beginning of the next episode? Writers are making up the rules as they go along! If the ticket was in Cambodia then the 30 minute penalty should apply to the next race, that is how it was done in the past. I guess the rules change after every episode!

where did these frat boys go to college? duhhhh crank that f'n handle [gas hand pump] like a man ya wus ..even kelly and christy did a better job ..smoked them haa!

I thought their pump wasn't working because they had the valve open? was it just because they did not pump hard enough? funny. I wondered why they did not try a bunch of other methods instead of walking around watching other people. I have to say, although they seem nice, they aren't exactly firing all cylinders at all times.

Check out my recap of Episode Five at:www.moonfun.net

I want to know where the Frat boys went to school at and did they not have a history class. If they did have a history class where in the world were they Everybody should know where Cambodia is for pete's sake

I've been a fan of Amazing Race from the first episode and I am completed dumbfounded as to why the rules are suddenly different for Aja and Ty. It was very clear that the should not have been eliminated. To allow the other couple to carryover a penalty of 30 minutes is a blatant in your face case of UNFAIRNESS. Amazing Race owes its viewers an explaination.

So true. Nothing so frustrating as watching a team keep doing something the wrong way over and over. Hint--if it didn't work right the first time, doing it the same way will probably get you the same result.

You guys are crazy! Ty and Aja were on a completely different flight that probably landed hours after the other teams... I'm sure they were way behind and the editing was just done to make it look closer than it was. Phil said the penalty made no difference. And why should they have gotten a penalty anyway? They should have gotten a credit for the boat breaking down!!

Exactly, and this isn't the first time that a penalty was to be issued at the start of the next leg. I would love to see Ty and Aja still in the race. But can anybody truly say what the rule is for a speeding ticket? At least now we have something to go on for the next time.

Teams never get "credit" for a vehicle mishap. Cars break down all the time in this show, all the rules state, and it is so funny as an avid fan to listen to Phil repeat the rule every time, is that a new car will be provided but no time will be given. I ranted about karma earlier and the boat is an example. terence asks sarah to slow down becuase "she is always running ahead of him" and their boat springs a leak. not a shock to me, i just can't wait until she finally stick up for herself!

A few things that made me go HuhWuh? this episode:Tina going in and out of the Echo Chamber how many times?Kelly and Christy doing one better of not reading the clue--not GETTING the clue first!Andrew--that wasn't a Jack-in-the-Box you were cranking, nothing to be afraid of!Terence--stepping up and pushing the boat!!!

Hee hee that was funny . . . great editing on that too. Just after the divorcees tell the audience how they haven't been using their high powered intelligence!I actually felt bad for tina, but i was suprised that she did not ask more people for help earlier. I wonder how long she actually walked around in there, although it was probably pretty freaking cool!
