Is it just me or have there already been too many non elimination legs? It's boring me that no one's getting eliminated.

The first leg, and this one. There's usually about 3 per season, so it's just you. The late game express pass isn't too bad. And I always enjoy double legs, though hopefully there's no placement reset before or during the next leg.

Normally the dancing shows give me half a pani because I could never do choreographed dance thing but I liked this one because they basically just put everyone through who didn't go "aww shucks I suck" and stop dancing.

The race would never end if that team or the gay guys alternate finishing last, It feels like production is wanting them the most. I tried to be really open minded about this season but ugh, the only team I like is Bernie and Ashley, and the team with the poor man's Anna Kendrick is ok. The rest are irritating like the yelling bros or gay guys, or just meh. Also it must be real good if dancing guy puts up with that...real good.

I haven't even been watching this season, but haven't there only been three saves? Which is the exact same amount at this time as the last season. I was wondering that 'it's been a while since they've had all-returnees' but apparently it's only been about two years. Maybe it's because I blocked out how bad All-Stars was. I imagine they'd probably do it for season 30, they seem to do it every 6-7 seasons now.

I'll give Sheri a lot of credit though, she's been tough as nails, even if her son is the most annoying person in the race. And yea, she got some bomb-rear end tit-tays.

Intentionally keeping Cole as a dumb pre-pubescent prop for social media has got to be some kind of crime.

Yes, because absolutely none of Cole's personality is an act for the benefit of the camera, and is 100% representative of his day to day life.

The dancing team had the obligatory abusive spouse breakdown this leg. Riptor posted:Tyler and Corey are awesome I like watching them.

You guys actually like Tyler & Korey?  I can't stand them, they're so annoying. They are by far my least favorite team of the season, so watch them win.

The little one has an annoying laugh but I can't help but like them. They kind of remind me of Danny and Oswald a bit which is a good thing. They have fun, aren't having breakdowns, etc.

Ugh what a trash leg. Everyone bunched up on one flight, with just two roadblocks. Poor man's Anna Kendrick eliminated basically because they picked her for the task and she was slightly slower than the rest. Although it is amusing that Brodie is apparently super dumb and he can't be protected from doing tasks any longer.

Except for the salt roadblock, that was a leg I would like to do myself. It was funny seeing everyone freak out over the snakes. As far as leg design, yeah, that was pretty poo poo. The elimination was just because one team had a woman do the physical leg. And because I'm always curious about the prices whenever they do "sell things to the locals" challenges, 10,000 rupiah is about $1 USD, or the price of 2 bananas. Or according to this site, about 1/5th the price of a McDonalds combo meal. That explains why everyone was willing to buy it.

The salt thing was kinda cool, but I was confused by the missing step. Apparently after hours of sprinkling water on the sand, they rake it all up and stick it into a sieve where they pour more seawater in (over days) and collect the brine at the bottom in the hollowed out bamboo. Which seems like a shitton of work over a salt pond, but I guess manual labor is cheap. http://travel.cnn.com/explorations/life/flavor-journey-bali-balduccis-780500/

Delivering the snakes/offerings was basically just everyone following each other. Why couldn't they have wandered around lost with snakes around their necks, is all I'm saying.

And much respect to the Amazing Race editors, they usually do their job of making me like almost anyone after a long season and I'm mostly on board with all of these people, flaws and all.

Just when you thought the leg design couldn't get worse. I understand that every season aggressively fishes for an elimination based on 1) fear of heights, 2) being unable to swim, or 3) being unable to drive stick-shift, but if the roadblocks don't do anything at all to shuffle teams that arrived within minutes of each other, why bother?

Yeah lame again, everyone did the same detour and it was very linear. Dive for a clue, walk stuff across a bridge, jump off a thing.

That roadblock was pretty terrible. This late in the game, the challenge should be more than "jump off a thing". Otherwise, it was a smart play by the other teams to knock out Brodie and Kurt. They were one of the strongest teams, so now it's mostly down to the gay guys and the rooster teeth couple. The other two teams are absolute poo poo.

What a terrible season. At least this way I can just read the results and watch it later if Tyler and Corey lost, and otherwise not waste my time. I never saw the terrible family season, but this is by far the worst I have seen.
