Amazing Race 16 - Villains, Barbie Dolls, and Wierdoes In Exotic Locales, Oh my!

Zudnic

Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can't Lose
Superexcited for the new one premiering Sunday!

Only 11 teams this time. First destination: Chile. Puerto Varas, I heard .. beautiful there, lots of cool activities in the lakes district. Maybe they'll do the lakes crossing to Bariloche.

Round 2 = Thread title win.
 
Re: Amazing Race 16 - Villains, Barbie Dolls, and Wierdoes In Exotic Locales, Oh my!

This Season's crew has not impressed me with the models and the cowboys being tops on the list of the clueless ones. I'm amazed how many people could not follow the directions. How long was that street where they had to find the houses to paint? It seemed to take some teams forever to complete the task. I am amazed they penalized the two brothers 15 minutes for losing a paint brush. By losing the brush they made the task harder, though they only had a small area to paint, and then they penalize them 15 minutes on top.

After first epp looks like I will probably root for the Cops and Grandma/Granddaughter and root against the lawyers, help me Jesus!, Husband and wife, at least the husband and the Big Brother team.

The amused indoor painter was one of the funniest things ever seen on AR. "I have no idea what they're doing."

It's a dumb group, with Big Brother boobette and Carrie Prejean. The cops are funny (I guess they aren't undercover anymore, eh, baby?). Go grandma!!!

Will someone please explain to all future African American female contestants that Jesus doesn't give a **** how they do in the race?

The indoor painting was hilariously awesome.

I'm not sure who I like, it takes me a few episodes just to tell people apart. My bf dislikes the brothers already, I think it was 'cause the one guy said "gay's the only way" to which the bf responded "good luck repopulating the planet if that's the only way".

Agreed on the 15 minute penalty. They spent more time on the task (and looking for the paintbrush). Was there something in the clue that stated they had to have both paintbrushes? And what was with the ladders....none of the spots needing painting required the use of a ladder. "here carry around this useless piece of equipment just to make the task a bit more challenging".

I think it'll be fun to laugh at South Carolina....once I figure out which one she is.

Such as.

She doesn't look anywhere near that good without the ten pounds of goop they trowel on her.

I am really excited for this season. Looks like an awesome field.

The cowboys thinking they could use Brazilian Real in Chile is awesome. Maybe they edited out the part where they thought they were going to "the Chile".

LOVED the father/daughter randomly painting the room. That guy must have been bewildered, two random Americans, camera crew in tow, randomly busting in and painting their room. Brilliant. Up until then I was thinking they looked like a strong team.. maybe still will be.

Ms South Carolina - "are we going to Chile or China?" There WILL be hilarity with her.

Already one flight snafu too. And "what's a funicular?" That was great, they didn't even think to ask someone...

I am excited that Phil said at the beginning that they are planning this to be a challenging race. The zipline thing was harder than it looked, and I liked that they needed to get out of downtown LA on public transit, that bodes well.

It just seems that EVERYONE is famous. I'm not a fan of that. I want more joe 6packs.
 
Re: Amazing Race 16 - Villains, Barbie Dolls, and Wierdoes In Exotic Locales, Oh my!

I call the 15 minute penalty horse-****.

They didn't penalize the gay brothers last season when the golem's arm basically broke off.

F that.

They painted half as fast, looked around for it...AND got penalized in the end? F that noise.

Finally watched the opener online. The cops and the cowboys will definitely provide some laughs.

I'm wondering about this next episode and what will happen with teams holding places in line for teams that haven't arrived. I can't imagine the Race liking that.

I missed part of the show. How did team big brother catch up after they missed the early busses?
 
Re: Amazing Race 16 - Villains, Barbie Dolls, and Wierdoes In Exotic Locales, Oh my!

I missed the first part.... what happened with the cowboys? How'd they get to be so far out in front?

They just kept looking for better bus connections. And a little luck that some other teams ended up in the wrong bus station and then stupidly tried to get to the right one when it should have been obvious that they wouldn't catch their bus, thereby missing the one that the cowboys were taking. That really cracked me up.
 
Re: Amazing Race 16 - Villains, Barbie Dolls, and Wierdoes In Exotic Locales, Oh my!

This season seems to be shaping up to be a season where I root against most of the teams. About the only one I can say I am rooting for is the cowboys. I am utterly amazed with such a long layover that only 3 teams looked for a better bus connection. For a Race that is supposed to be "really" tough this year the detour and roadblock were really simple. I expected the Lesbian couple to have a breakdown but it looks like it happens even earlier than I expected it.
 
Re: Amazing Race 16 - Villains, Barbie Dolls, and Wierdoes In Exotic Locales, Oh my!

I was really dissapointed with the one detour....I thought they were going to have to hit the target. Turns out they could just fall off the dock and swim to the clue. Lame.

I also can't believe that only 3 teams looked for better bus routes. What did the other teams do for the nearly full day while waiting to get on their direct bus?

Yet those two teams somehow caught up which is the part I missed.

I thought the cowboy team would be weak seeing how the first week went for them. I do like them and it looks like they may be stronger than they originally looked.

My favorite is big brother. I find the interaction between Jeff and Jordan entertaining. He is comical and takes her ditsyness in stride.

I can't stand the diva's (all three of them). The remarks about Caite were high school remarks. He (Jordan) needs to grow up.

I watch Big Brother so the Mrs and I are kinda rooting for them. But the cowboys are fun to watch.
