    Malcolm, I was thinking the same thing. Chip seemed like he needed Reichen more than Reichen needed him.... good luck to them both though. :)

    Who asked about the driver speaking English, and it turned out he didn't then? I thought some team did. Either way, the driver didn't know what the hell he was doing, I'd be pissed too. But I do agree that complaing that they can't speak English if they never said they could isn't right...

    I didn't see C&R do the "gay martyr schtick" either, except for two comments in the final episode about how most gay men are portrayed in media as feminine and weak and that they were probably perceived that way, but they felt they proved that gay men could be as strong, masculine and...

    I was hoping "the goats" would win out of the three teams left, but Chip & Reichen winning was OK too. I was REALLY happy that Jon & Kelly didn't win; not only was Jon very arrogant and mean-spirited (and not in a "it's a competition" way like Chip & Reichen, but in a school-bully kind of way)...

    BOO from me too. Especially since Kelly & Jon would have been kicked off already had they it not been non-elimination. :) Not much interesting happened, and was hard to get involved since it was obvious it would be non-elimination. But Chip's crash was pretty funny, and their (it seemed)...

    Yeah, I would. Disqualification would be too harsh though, but I find it perfectly reasonable that if one team does not follow the instructions, they'll have to go back and do over. In fact, it makes more sense to just tell them to go back and do over and not give them a penalty at all.

    Yeah, a bummer that the clowns are gone, they were the last team remaining to root for. The Goats will get my support from now on I guess. I still can not stand Kelly & Jon, and Reichen and Chip are just a little too competitive and serious to be fun to watch. I wish the penalty had been...

    Yeah, that was great. :D I wonder if that was true or if the driver was just full of it. I couldn't believe that even the people at the hotel seemed to have problems communicating in English. Is there any other "international" language such as french, spanish or german that would be more...

    I too figured this wouldn't be an elimination round, so it was hard to get really involved in this episode. I felt bad for the two teams who managed to "sneak" onto the earlier flight, only to fall behind when their cab driver couldn't speak english. :) One question: are the producers gett...

    They're both bad, but he's worse, IMO.

    It was nice to see Kelly complain about Jon's attitude towards the other players. All he seems to do is bitch about and make fun of them, like he did in this episode too, about "the clowns". Not sure why he was even picking on them at that point. I really dislike Jon & Kelly, they don't treat...

    I'm guessing they go by what they think we the viewers will identify with and remember, what we'd call the teams if there were no labels or names. In that case, it makes sense to call the virgins "the virgins", or the father & son "father and son". :)

    I'd have no problem with someone thinking being gay is not normal, unless they start campaigning that they shouldn't be allowed to not be normal. :) /Mike

    ***Official "The Amazing Race 4" Thread***

    Well, what else of interest do they have going for them? Like Michael says above, if they weren't virgins they wouldn't be in the show. It sort of creeps me out that two people date for 12 years and not have sex. That's just not normal. But maybe they just mean they haven't had vaginal...

    ***Official "The Amazing Race 4" Thread***

    My sentiments exactly. From what they've shown, Jon is also very uncaring and downright mean to Kelly. That "joke" on the train, when he pinched her, for example. She was obviously not comfortable on the train, asked him to look out for her and stand behind her, and he thought it was funny to...

    I agree. Since the parked cars were not first in line anymore when the girls and the boys pulled up to the gate, the other contestants complaints were ridiculous.

    I couldn't believe the self-righteous attitudes of those waiting in the cars overnight. Reichen and Chip got there first, so by the rationale of those in the cars, shouldn't they have been let in first? I wish the girls would have pulled in ahead of everyone, they were in the car that was...

    Is there any outline available on the AR website of the upcoming destinations, or will it only be revealed to us episode by episode?

    I agree, I didn't see it as him whining, he was apologizing and wanted to clear up the situations so there wouldn't be residual hostility. At least that's how I understood it. I wonder if the losing team are still friends, and if she still wants to be "more than friends". :) The thing...

    Yeah, they completely wasted the Fast Forward. They knew there were 4 teams behind them, and getting in first place wouldn't seem as important as making it to the next stage, certainly not important enough to use the FF when you'll make it anyway. I can't believe the stupid stuff some of the...

    Could very well be. Either that, or he's just plain nuts. Or they don't consider anal, oral, or any other form of sex off-limits, as long as it's not vaginal, and he's perfectly fine with using the other orifices. :D

    I never said it should be a critera, I just said it bothered me. It's not as exciting watching someone who already has a lot of money win more money, as it is watching someone who gets a "once in a lifetime" chance to make their dreams come true. If I was a producer, I'd want to keep the...

    I haven't watched the entire episode yet, but did anyone else think that it didn't really seem fair to include a couple of "NFL wives" in there? Don't they have enough money already? I don't know how much their husbands make, but I imagine it's quite a bit. Maybe I'm wrong. Gotta see the rest...

    Good time slot, I watched it a little bit the first season but it got lost in the competition for me. I'll have to try and watch it this season, I like the concept a lot.
