I don't mind the dating gimmick so much, mainly because it seems like it's going to mean more pitstop stuff will be shown. Phil prodding about the relationship stuff with the blind date people this early on is dumb though.There are some pretty likeable teams (the blind date lawyers and the non blind date gay team in particular), and the stranger aspect seems to be forcing some teams to actually do really well precisely because they are keeping their emotions and outbursts under control. There are also some interesting team dynamics we haven't seen so much of; the trucker/roller derby couple is getting the same sort of "staying under control" benefits as the strangers, because the guy is trying super hard (so hard that he'll blow at some point?), and the doctor/nurse team is kind of funny since the doctor clearly doesn't give a gently caress about the nurse. Happy at the elimination. Missing the train because they were taking a selfie is so delightfully stupid, and I always find it incredibly creepy when there's a couple where one of them is "we're going to get married, right? If we win the race, let's get married!  " and the other one is "ah, yeah.. sure.. I guess <_<". Stop trying to use internationally broadcast television to bully people into marrying you, christ. Goes double for "if we win the race, we'll have a kid". If you need to win the race to affirm that you should be getting married or having kids, you sure as hell shouldn't be doing either.

What a lovely leg. What's the point of having a non-elimination with a team many hours behind if in the next leg you're a)not going to have a bunch up at the beginning b)have a speedbump that is significantly more difficult than usual c)have a clearly superior/inferior detour pair (AGAIN! ughh) where no aspect of skill, knowledge, intelligence whatever comes into EITHER option. What a pointless episode, New Kids were doomed beyond doubt before the leg even started.

An entire season of assholes like Joey and Meghan spending all their time acting to the camera because they think it'll up their subscriber numbers?
