Lame as ending with no mental task? Fuck I hate the US version of the show so hard now.
Next season episodes on Fridays.

Terrible ending, terrible winners. Dave and Connor just passed Dan and Jordan as my least favorite winners. The production intervention was written all over this. No mental challenge to win it? I think that's the first time ever. A lot of seasons were won purely on the mental challenge. This was first to get to the plane. Terrible final leg.

I was rooting for Rachel and Brendan to win up until the matador challenge. She really kicked up her whining in the last few episodes.
Maybe they were trying to lower the chances of another winner like the goat farmers and their come from behind win due to that crazy flag challenge. I skipped last seasons finale so I don't know if there was a mental task in that one.
I always appreciated the equalizer, since the race was never about racing anyway. I mean, I guess it was better than the pure sprints in the first couple of seasons, but after having the tasks for a while, as recently as the Canadian version last summer, it just seems silly to have such a bullshit task be the last real one.Eh it's always been like that intermittently. It's not like that's a sudden change,i t's just ALWAYS disappointing when it happens. How some seasons can have like "HOpe you brought a notebook writing down every detail of every task and greeter at every country" and then some of them can have "Count lightbulbs as you screw them in" is preposterous. How Dave and Connor were allowed to simply go 'oh well let's guess again' was even more absurd. The penalty for being wrong should have been to redo the entire god damn thing tbh.
It's either CBS giving up or CBS trying to build the show on a different night, depending on whether you are pessimistic or not.Ugh, why
It's supposed to be later this year. They're calling it "NZ vs Australia", so I expect it to be hilariously terrible because of all the national rivalries they're going to try to play up.
LOL. Last season of the Australia's version has a great "villain", and the challenges are actually pretty tough, so I hope at least silly national rivalries would be more entertaining than some rubbish Accidental Alliance of waiting and helping each other every league.

I'm expecting a lot of cliques and whatnot built right in. lol
Honestly though, I'm still waiting for AR to pull the ultimate twist - force teams to swap team members for the rest of the race. They already have that thing where they force two teams to work together. If they really want to fuck up the dynamics and create drama, that'd be the best way to do it.
(Of course, logistically, it'd probably never work, I know. )
It's completely bullshit. Phil's covering up for production's intention to let Dave slide into the finals while running only 4 roadblocks up until that point.So the equal roadblocks rule has been around for a loooong time, and was used last season as evidenced by "so and so MUST do this roadblock" clues near the end, and then magically, the season Mr. Whiny Oldpants Cancer-Achilles comes back it's suddenly not a rule anymore? Bullshit. Connor did 8 and Dave did 5. Bring on the Canadian version! That was soooooo much better than the crap the american one has become.
Edit: Phil just tweeted this: " no team could do more than 6 RBs B4 end of L10 - 3 RBs in L11+12 those can be divided 2-1"
Sounds like bullshit to me.
I don't understand how anyone could root for brenchel. As if telling that cabby lady they want to have a baby does anything but make her hate them and her own miserable life even more. It's like Rache was begging for producer intervention to give then the win. But what else could you expect from a couple of people who have made a living by being awful and whiny on tv by fans who like to live their boring lives vicariously through them? Making z-list celebrities out of reality show contestants is why they make these shitty all star and cross show seasons in the first place.
Because Dave and Connor helped them throughout the race, and the Brenchels U-turned them.I wanted them to win because I didn't want Team "Somehow sexist to their own gender, we're just girls, we can't do anything" winning and Team "We are better than everyone else" winning. I really hated those two teams towards the end. The Country Girls are simply stupid. They got by because of someone helping them early on when building something which they admitted they couldn't do because they were girls (lame excuse when you have other women competing with you doing the same task), then the pass from the Cowboys, and 2 non-elimination legs. Why they were made at the Brenchels? I have no idea.
Connor/Dave: Why U-Turn a 60 year old? We've never been to a bar so we aren't going to do this task because going to a bar is evil.
This season sucked. Anyways, onto the next one.
Probably the worst finale, no mental task, three TERRIBLE teams, and some of the biggest egotistical team winning. Did anyone know that Dave was 60 years old? /sarcasm
Still, imagine the outrage if the Country Stars won? lol
I don't get why the US version is so terrible... especially when the other versions use the same rules. Is it really just the casting?

I lol'dArgh, what a lame end to a mediocre season.
At least Amazing Race Canada is back on July 8th and will be going outside of the country this time.
Are they going to the UNITED STATES now?!
I hope they go to good places. lol
Oh reeeeally?The rumours are they were in ...Macau
That was a really lame last leg, but I'm just glad Brendan and Rachel didn't win. Those two douchebags need to disappear for a while and stop being reality TV whores.
