Amazing Race, Ep 5

[I-Hate-Hulse]

"What strengths and weaknesses does your teammate bring to the Team?

Jonathan: Victoria is a goddess and can do no wrong unless she is put under too much stress. It's going to go one way or the other for her: she will either be my rock or my atomic bomb.
Victoria: Jon is very focused and direct. He is so determined he is like a freight train, so the other Teams better not get in our way. His weakness is his intensity. He can often scare people or rub them the wrong way because he comes off too strong, and they see in his eyes that he's not to be messed with. This can also be a good thing, but doubles as his big weakness. He will scream and shout, and that gets on people's nerves. "

What an unbelievable disturbing display of abuse on last night's show. If Victoria ever needs grounds for divorce, all she needs to do is plug in a tape of last night's show. Jon berating her and shoving her (her backpack anyways) really shows what kind of a guy he is. Push him a little more and I can see him laying a backhand across Victoria's face. Got to wonder if this will impact Jonathan outside of the race in his business dealings, I think you can count on women boycotting his spas....

Should the show do an intervention? Sad to say but Jonathan's psychosis will do wonders for the ratings. I really hope Lori the wrestler lays a can of whoop-ass on John...wouldn't that do wonders for that ego of his....

Also technically Victoria never stepped on the mat, instead withdrawing to sob. Penalty? Makes you wonder how much of Jon's rant they DIDN"T show at the pit stop!

FYI: The Happy Couple have a website: LINK
Yowza she cleans up well! Looks good as a Bunny....

EDIT - Sorry, meant to put a spoiler warning in the header...but luckily I never commented on who won the leg....news of Jonathan's abuse is spreading like wildfire anyways...

[Tron_fdc]

Man, this idiot shows quite a few traits of the classic wifebeater.....not to mention pretty much doing it on National Television.

He's an arrogant ass that needs to be tossed off the show, that's for sure.

[habernac]

I think everyone watching the show last night would like a piece of that guy. I'm really tired of his "I own a Ferrari and can do whatever I want" crap.

[Mike Oxlong]

When he shoved her last night my Girlfriend and I just kind of looked at each other like - did we just see that?

What an absolute ass to do that to a woman. Never mind on National TV. Can you imagine what her family thinks?

I think they are going to boot these guys off the race because of his behaviour.

I couldn't beleive that he was making her carry both bags in that race at the end. That guy is such a friggin whiner. Just pick up your bag and run! She was acting a little strange herself when she was screaming in agony.

[Reaper]

Look at this picture and tell me there's nothing wrong with this guy.

[looooob]

there's no question the guy is a grade A loser

but what about the girl on the other team just ripping on Africa (and Africans) right in front of the cabby?

[Eagle Eye]

Haha that loser even has a message board on his webiste. I wonder how much monitoring he is doing on that board, I am sure there are at least a few hundred people who would like to chew him out.

[RougeUnderoos]

Ha ha check this one...

He's getting some nasty messages already.

Time for a Calgarypuck Jihad?

yeah that was classy. Maybe she can volunteer to teach them all on the subject since she's so smart...

[I-Hate-Hulse]

Now that I think about it it would have been more entertaining if Victoria had let him drop his pack and have the locals scavenge it, leaving old Johnny boy without any gear for the rest of the trip. I'm thinking of the scene in "Coming to America" when Eddie Murphy leaves his luggage on the street and comes back to see every local denizen wearing his tiger print clothing...


Picture Jonathan toting a Safeway bag for the rest of the trip with his meager goods in it.

[Eagle Eye]

haha so how many people on this board have already posted there?

He should really have a Mod. hahaha Every 2nd post is someone telling him to F-Off. It's the most swearing i've seen in a message board. hehee

Also check out the Poll they have going on there. hahaha

[arsenal]

Its just a free for fall of f-bombs.

Yeah, but Africa had it coming. I mean, how DARE they inconvenience her with their poverty?!?!? They've got a lot of nerve to be poor and STILL breed - I mean, everyone knows that only rich people should have families.

This amazing race is a collection of the scum of society - I have troubles figuring out who I hate more. The annoying thing is that the "good" teams are getting eliminated while the self-centered snob arses keep doing well.

I'm really hoping for the Jon & Kris or father/daughter teams to win. These people seem to genuinely enjoy the different cultures they're being given the opportunity to witness.

[Language]

Yeah the dude is an ass.

But she looks pretty good in those Playboy centrefolds.

She wasn't just complaining but they twice ripped off their cabbies after agreeing on a price.

How they did not get F'ed up by the locals I do not know.

ANd Jon certainly is a huge jerk.

Maybe makes some people reconsider some of the stuff they said about Colin lst year?

Ya I hated Colin and was very glad that he didn't win last year, but man Jon is so much worse, and what is up with Victoria? Talk about a girl with low self esteem staying with a guy like that.
