I wish I had memory of these past teams like you guys. I can only remember the teams that come back for the All-Stars Seasons (which I like for the record). And Vixen...mmmmmm. I also just remember that time when a team was in the final three and made it to the Pitstop only to find out they missed a challenge and had to go back, and some other team beat them. That hurt. I remember Rachel and Dave in season 20 stumbling upon the finish line by chance, without doing a roadblock. Luckily for them, they went back and completed it with enough time to spare to still win.

Well, {Spoiler}a non-elimination leg this late is pretty cheap. . I really can't believe Brooke and Robbie are still in it and I REALLY can't believe the sweet scientists are still in it. And more and more I hate Brooke every week. yes, the Phillipiens (sp?) is pretty dirty but come on. I don't go in the middle of Buffalo and scream how gross it is because the people who live there are right there. That's those peoples lives and wether or not they recognize it that's very rude.

{Spoiler}I suspected that tonight was gonna be non elimination as usually every season has atleast 3 non elimination legs and since they were calling back to season 5...the exact same leg in that season ended up being a non elimination saving Colin and Christies asses.
The OX didn't quite frustrate the teams like it did colin and is times like this I miss a real hot headed competitor just so see them collapse emotionally always hilarious.
I got a feeling the surfers are done next week.

I hope not because the surfers were my picks to win. I can't see how the sweet scientists have lasted this long. Tonight was just "dumb luck".

No eliminations again so it's a Final 4 this season...and Robbie & Brooke are leading the way in first place.
Well THAT'S surprising!

Are they ever going to put Brooke's ass back on TNA tv or what?

Nice twist ending so we go into the finals with 4 teams but 1 team will be eliminated...so it is season 5 all over again which is awesome.
Except this time the villans are leading the way , with the surfers not gone something tells me they are gonna pull the ultimate shenanigans with her being 1 armed and everyone is gonna turn on them for the tactic I just get this feeling they are gonna use that to their advantage at a crucial moment.

I'm no physical specimen by any means. But it really pissed me off that such a weak team as the sweet scientists keep getting by on luck and other peoples mistakes. A team that bad should have been out in the first three episodes of the series. And I'm not attributing it to fortitude or drive. It's plain dumb luck.
I did like the twist at the end. They should do that more often. Shit, they should do a whole season that's just go-go-go.

Well the CBS commercial I just saw for tonight's finale flat out shows which team finishes fourth. If I hadn't already read the elimination order spoilers early on, I'd be pretty pissed off.

Lookin forward to the finale and if I had to guess.
Dentists screw up royally and end up 4th Brooke and Robbie 3rd Surfers come close but get 2nd Scentists get by on the stupidest luck and win the entire thing
Thats the scenario that would be piss me off beyond belief...hell the scientists winning in any scenario will piss me the hell off.

{Spoiler}FUMING , Mad , Pissed off etc million ways to say it.
This was a great season untill these last 2 episodes.
Once the scientists got their asses saved last episode I knew...felt it in my guts that they were gonna luck the hell out and whatdaya know they do just that , they could have tripped at the finish line and somehow another team would have spontaneously combusted just to save them.
I absloutley HATED that the finale was in a single city...a huge chunk of tension was removed by literally setting the finale in a single city.
I am trying to honestly find a positive in this finale but I can't it was all sorts of blah.

Well, better them than the dentists. They were definitely this season's frat boys, although nowhere near as ridiculous. Maybe they're more along the lines of Dan and Jordan. They were the brothers who had an underwhelming race, but still beat the Cowboys and won the entire damn thing. The silver lining to a favorite team not winning is that they could return for another All Stars show.
As for Robbie and Brooke, it's unfortunate they lost simply because, well, they got lost. But I couldn't see them doing well in that final task. But damn, it felt like Brooke wanted to destroy the scientists at the finish line.

That was flat out the worst finale I've seen in twenty seasons I've watched the show. I'm not mad because my team (the Surfers) didn't win. But to have such a horrid team win...I stopped the PVR when they were running to the finish line. Usually I have a feeling of longing at the end of a season but that left me not giving two shits at all. I was pretty anti-Brooke for the last five or six shows but I was with her on her anger towards that team making it. They were losers. Dumb, weak, out-of-shape losers. I mean, the one girl was a physical wreck. The other girl was just a moron. I'm just so mad at how the race seemed...can I call it rigged? But it wasn't rigged. At least I don't think it was. I never want to see them again and if they were on an All-Stars season I'd have a hard time watching...until I forget about them tomorrow.
If there was anything good tonight it was Bethany running...lots.
And I've heard Jordan of New Kids on the Block is on the next race.

The scientists were as underdog as you get, and I wasn't upset they won at all. They weren't ridiculous like the frat boys, more were they as annoying as Dan and Jordan (who beat the cowboys). They ran a clean race and were not mean or obnoxious at all. The fact the other teams belittled them makes their victory better.

I cannot stand the scientists lucked out it is my most hated aspect of the race when a single team literally lucks out by every other teams faults...a few times is acceptable but when it is a consistent aspect of a team and they end up winning it all...yea thats absoloutley crap.
I would bet anything on that if the finale was structred as a multi country finale before heading back to the states like in the much earlier seasons it would have been much much different.
Oh well whats done is done....next season looks sort of interesting with couples meeting for the first time ever on the race.

When it got to 3, I was definitely cheering for the Dentists, but I'm not mad about the scientists. It's disappointing, but what can you do? Congrats to them.

I'll admit that while I was creeped out by the dentists eyes at first by the end of the race I actually liked the guy. He seemed like a genuinely nice man. Maybe a little awkward around people so much younger than him but I could tell his heart was in the right place at all times. Unless he HULKED when he found out they lost, I didn't watch the last ten minutes. And his wife actually turned out to be a lot more a valuable partner than I had her pegged at a first. I am trying to honestly find a positive in this finale but I can't it was all sorts of blah.
Bethany running Oh well, I'm glad I have some people here to talk about the Races with. The other board I post on has a thread I started with about thirty posts: twenty are me at the beginning and end of each of the last five races and the other ten were people talking about how much they hate reality TV. Next season I'll post a thread in the General Section. This all started because I thought it was so funny that in the first episode the team from TNA sank their ship.

Not a bad finale over all, but a little underwhelming. Not because the wrong team won, but because the final task was held in the drab confines of a shipyard, so many other colorful locations in the greater LA area they could have went to.
Kind of sucks that Brooke and Robbie went out like that, when they got lost en route to city hall due to bad directions, well in the words of the late great Gorilla Monsoon "Stick a fork in them, they're done."
Also come on Phil you could have let Robbie jump out the window just for fun, why you got to be such a buzz kill?

So to close this out once more Brooke came out on Twitter or something today an said that she and Robbie have broken up. She stated that they broke up pretty much during the filming of the show. They never did seem very close.
