AMAZING RACE – 9/30/12

Our favorite show is back and apparently they’ve raised the stakes this time—the prize is now 2 million dollars. Damn, if I’d have known that I would’ve freaking tried out instead of just sitting here typing and getting fatter. Anyway, with such a huge prize I’d better see some damn carnage right before my eyes. None of this racing-with-class-let’s-team-up business. I want to see sabotage and slander and four letter words and blood spilling, like forcing-other-cars-off-the-cliffside-road type sh*t. In case I’m not clear, I’m expecting straight up old school cartoon type hijinks. Bombs and sledgehammers to the skull and guns and racers getting f’ing run over by taxis. We are talking 2 mill here. Act like the self-absorbed, greedy, shallow racers that you are! So let’s move on to our fun cast of characters for this season.

1. Trey and Lexi. These two are “dating” and from Austin, TX. Former football player and cheerleader from University of Texas. I’m sure the school is figuratively shaking its head that it didn’t prevent the show from … Continue reading

AMAZING RACE FINALE – 5/7/12

Well, here we go: Season Finale! Rachel and Dave finished first AGAIN and are leaving first –I’d say they are the ones to beat at this point. Right away, it was funny to hear Dave say that his relationship with Rachel is more important than the money or the Race. He was going on and on about their relationship being the priority. I guess that’s why he constantly blames and berates her for everything during this thing. I’d be serving this jerk with divorce papers before I got back to America, but that’s just me. I’m sure Rachel has dealt with this same kind of derision even over the dumb stuff at home. Like not putting the hammer back where it belongs in the garage causing a lecture-like rant and maybe him forcing her to do a bunch of push ups or something. Anyway, all the teams were on the same flight, headed to Hiroshima, Japan.

Art and JJ declared: “We just feel that we are the best team.” Oh really? That’s news. Tell us … Continue reading

AMAZING RACE – 4/30/12

As if there was any doubt who made the statement that would make up this week’s title, it was good old Rachel from Big Brother. Those promos showed her whining up a storm about how she spent $500 on hair extensions and didn’t want to shave her head. Hey, I totally get that. I wouldn’t want to shave my head even without pricey hair extensions. But Rachel just won a half million on Big Brother. Is $500 all that much to her? Honestly, she kept saying she’d use the whole half million or something on her wedding to Brendan. My guess is she’s probably already dropped more than $500 making sure there are rhinestones on the toilet paper in the bathroom stalls at her wedding reception. No clue why that’s a large amount of money for her all of a sudden, but whatever. You don’t want to shave your head? Just say so. Don’t make a ridiculous excuse about expensive hair extensions.

On to this week’s show. 10th leg and the finale is coming up … Continue reading
