Last week, Harley & Jonathan did everything that they could to stick around on “The Amazing Race,” but a bad flight ultimately doomed them in, and caused them to fall all the way to last place. This meant that they had an uphill battle tonight in Thailand. Unfortunately for them, there was just not enough […]
Everyone loves gross food challenges on “The Amazing Race,” right? Well, we’re not sure that’s absolutely true. We like them when the entire premise is something that takes longer than a few seconds. The noodles earlier this season didn’t even look disgusting at all! We preferred those earlier challenges where you had to eat that […]
We’re not sure at this point how much we should be analyzing “Hart of Dixie” ratings at this point. We admire the consistency of the show, but at the same time, we wonder whether or not it matters significantly to The CW. We talked briefly last night about some tweets that may suggest that the […]
So far, the Blind Date twist on “The Amazing Race 26” is exactly what we thought it would be. At first, the dating couples would get along swimmingly, mostly because they were new to one another, and you often want to be on your best behavior when you first meet someone. Then, over time some […]
Is this technically an all-dating season of “The Amazing Race” if one of the couples is now engaged? We suppose the theme has to still work, since there’s one blind-date team that has already given up, and another one is almost sure to follow them soon after. The engaged team tonight is none other than […]
It really only took three episodes on “The Amazing Race 26” for one of the Blind Date couples to come close to falling apart, and that couple is known other than Hayley & Blair. On paper, they seem like the sort of team that could do extremely well at this show. They’re young, athletic, and […]
The moment that we saw Blair & Hayley in the first challenge on “The Amazing Race 26,” we had one quick realization: This is not going to work well. These two have very different personalities: Blair is completely type-A and aggressive, and doesn’t seem interested in complimenting or supporting a teammate. Meanwhile, Hayley seems to be very […]
We’ve made no secret that we hate the inclusion of selfies into “The Amazing Race 26.” This twist is so awful, it actually makes us feel a little bit better about some of the other things that the show is doing. Take, for example, the blind date twist, or the notion that we need some […]
We know that CBS did almost everything that they could in order to revitalize this season of “The Amazing Race.” They introduced that new “blind date” twist, and they even gave the show the post-premiere spot following “Survivor.” These could have led to an increase in awareness, even if we didn’t particularly love the twist. […]
We’re a couple of days late in posting our review of “The Amazing Race 26” premiere, mostly because the billion or so things that were on TV this week really messed us up and got us a little bit behind. With that being said, we’re excited to get back on track a little bit! We […]
