    Wow, how did the cowboys do so good. This episode is a clear example of how getting a crappy cab driver can kill you as it looks like either Steve and Allie or the brothers are going home.

      Cowboys have solidified my vote for awesome.

      I hope the models are done.

        Lesbians took the U-Turn and in their comments showed why it happened to them. Running a smart race the Cops should have been U-turned but unfortunately when a team has the choice between a strong team they like and a somewhat strong team they dislike the disliked team gets the shaft. Once again not that good of a leg, really surprised more teams did not pick the ice cream challenge. I am also taking a stab this is a non elimination due to the U-Turn.

          Having a non-elimination in a U-turn leg is just wrong. Glad you were, too! Not nice to say, but I really disliked the lesbian team. Is it just my imagination, or has every gay and lesbian team been mean, catty, unfriendly, and unlikeable? Their saying that U-turning them was ignorant is not bright - u-turning a team you deem to be a threat is a good move.

            Danny and Oswald are amongst my favorite teams of all time on the race and the only other really mean unlikeable team that springs to my mind is Team Guido.

              It's just your imagination.

              Half of this lesbian team, however, was very annoying, and I'm glad to see her gone. Regardless, it was a typically stupid move by the airheads -- they U-Turned them not because they thought they were a threat (they never won a single leg) but because Carrie Prejean's feelings were hurt. The smart move would have been U-Turning the cowboys or the detectives, each of which is a far stronger team.

                Fortune Magazine had an interesting article on Blake, of the Blake and Paige team from Season 2. He is the founder of Toms Shoes which was founded partially on his experience on the show.

                    I thought their best line was "Don't let the clothes fool ya, we are into the fashion scene."

                        Hard leg today last roadblocks seemed pretty tough. Glad to not see Mike and Louie get eliminated hopefully the models won't make the final three.

                          What I find interesting about this season is that the teams that have behaved badly - the cops - I don't see as villains. Jet & Cord are awesome, they are my favorite team in a while.

                          Model girl had a great bonehead comment in the 1st portion of the ep tonight.

                          Shanghai should prove a great backdrop. Getting around there can be tough if you don't speak Chinese.

                            I don't really see the cops as villians, but I wouldn't have minded if they had gotten the boot last night.

                            As much as I don't want the models to win, I enjoy that they are still around for me to laugh at.

                            The cowboys look to be having fun and I enjoy their humor on the race. I think my favorite teams are always the ones having fun (such as the hippies from whatever season).

                            Interesting having 2 road blocks and each person having to do one of them.

                                Seems like most of the teams had a hard time in Shanghai. Would have liked to see how teams would have done the dumpling challenge which didn't seem that hard. I am guessing because the teams had realized the shortage of English speaking people in Shanghai it may have been tough to find the place they were going. I can't believe the brothers wandered around for 2 hours after getting the clue without asking a hotel taxi etc for directions to the garden bridge. Disappointing that Mike and Louie were eliminated rather than the models. Although now I know who to root for in the finals. Go Cowboys.
