Go geeks and girl doctors!
OMG, I can't believe the tattoo girl, she has never heard of Stonehenge and thought London was a country!?!?!

At least there are interesting teams this year. It was great to see English countryside as we were just at Stonehenge and Cotswolds this summer. I was glad I had GPS instead of a map. The two eliminated bought a map but couldn't seem to use it.

I like the girl docs, too. Yes, it is odd there's no married couples--maybe they fight too much??? :D

Peggy, I have been trying to figure that out. It seems that the theme this season is "building relationships." Perhaps they are trying to see how many actually build stronger relationships or break up? Married couples just may stay together making the "show" less exciting. It could be that the non marrieds argue a fair amount and it makes good television from a production sake.

Ditto, Karen! Was wondering if anyone was still watching since there has been little activity here. You're the one that got me watching - don't watch other reality shows!

We still haven't had the last episode so I won't read any comments. There was talk of there being some participants of the race in Manly - could that be possible? Have they started filming the next race? Lee

I just loved the HSN girls. Except for one snappish day they were always happy and never mean to anybody. I won't spoil anything for Lee, but I did think the last episode was particularly unexciting though. BUt the previews of next season look really fun!! Come on February!

Helen, when they were showing previews of the past contestants that will be on the new season, were those the actual contestants for the new season? Or just random past contestants?
The reason I ask is that some of them could hardly be considered favs, I saw that couple from this season that got engage during the race, I don't think they were anyones favs, lol
If that was real footage of the next season, then Lee, it looks like the race has already ran so the Manly tidbit might be true!

I thought last night's show was more brain power instead of physical. Trying to get all the greeters in order was a mental challenge. I was pleased with the win. You know how these shows work, the producers always want some vinegar in with the sugar!! Keeps the shows exciting, they think..... The returning challengers seems to be a theme on reality shows this year.
