Amazing Race has started!! (Spoiler)

I've been watching AR since season 4. This one looks good, interesting mix.

I like the brother and sister team who came in first last night. "Mom and Dad," the couple where he's trying to win his wife back after cheating on her might be the bickerers. I'm already waiting for the episode where he just tells her to get over it or move on.

The old hippies were doomed from the start.

AR is my favourite reality show, followed by Survivor. It really is like travelling around the world without leaving your living room.

I enjoyed last night's episode. I agree, the hippies were doomed from the start.

Tina (Mom of the Mom and Dad couple) is already getting on my nerves. I also think Terence and Sarah are likely to be a bickering couple.

At first, I didn't like Nick and Starr, but they grew on me as the episode went on. I also like the Mom and Son team.

The 2 women teams seem alike as do the frat boys and the other guy friends team. Some couple teams didn't get much air time, but with so many teams, that's bound to happen to some. Maybe they need to bicker more!!

Love this show. My early favorites are the brother/sister team and the mother/son team.

Adios tie die t shirts and sand candles

I am glad the beekeepers are off the show -- I like it when they include an older team but let's try to select an older team that is physically fit and that did not lose their way spending too much time making tie die t shirts and sand candles. Funtime
PS - all that hair makes for bad TV.

They should have brought along some bees to sting or at least scare the other players. Dummies! :rofl:

Love this show!

But this year's teams seem too typical to me. Loved Ron & Christina last season and the grampa/grandson, too. 2 teams of attractive females, 2 male "nerd" teams, lots of live together or trying to commit duos and the cheater & wife. Bro & sis and mom & son are a little different. So far my faves are the older nerds and the sibs.

The old hippies seemed as though they were just happy to go with the journey and not the RACE. Glad they're gone even though they were the only team in my age cohort.

This is our favorite show by far. Been watching since Season 1. Travel and adventure-right up my alley.

I dunno about the mom and son team. First, she names him Dallas. Then he grew up to look like a Gotti boy.

The older geek team seems pretty savvy. The frat boys not so much.
