Was I the only one who noticed the censors missed bleeping out Rachel using the f-bomb in the taxi? Early in the episode when ther cab driver was lost Rachel clearly said " were f---ed.

Nope, I noticed it too. My g/f is convinced she said "this sucks" despite me replaying it 3 times.

Like most people the censors probably just tune out whatever Rachel is saying

[GoinAllTheWay]

lol, so true.

It's too bad the Cowboys saved the worst leg they've ever run for the final 5. I've never seen those guys get lost like that and make so many mistakes. Can't really blame Afganimals for U-turning them though, aside from Dave and Connor they are they team to beat.

I'm definitely throwing my support behind Dave and Connor to win it all now.

I can't throw my support behind a guy who whines when other teams simply use the rules and mechanisms of the race to gain an advantage. And does the whining in some pretty ugly ways.

His whining has definitely been over the top and borderline ridiculous, I suppose I just see them as the best of the worst right now. It's more I don't want the Afganimals or Brenchels or Blondes to win compared to wanting Dave and Connor to win. The Cowboys were my favorite team all season long, it was tough to see them go out so unceremoniously.

Well after today's race we may have the worst final three ever!
Afghanimals do themselves in again....left with 3 bleh teams to race for the million. Dave and Connor should win, Caroline and Jennifer will likely win the race and their first leg...anyone but Brenchel.

[ernie]

I think this season needs a do over.

Edit: I also think they should just give the money the Dave and Connor. It's rude and completely unnecessary to make such an old guy run the race.

[wooohooo]

I'm fine with Dave and Connor or the blondes... yes... the blondes...

[ClubFlames]

Can't cheer for the whiners and Brenchels. Go Caroline.. I mean the country singers!

[RyZ]

The team that I wanted to come in 3rd came in 3rd. I could live with either of the other 2 winning.

[trackercowe]

What the hell kind of a final leg was that? Happy my pick won, but what a letdown for the end of the race it was. Where was the memory or physical test that they usually have for the last leg? All it pretty much came down to was a cab ride, and small challenges where there was hardly any difference in who finished where. It was essentially a one-hour Las Vegas tourism video; what a disgraceful finalie (especially for an All-Star season).

Oh and then they skydived to the finish line? The hell kind of race is that.

[Cheese]

Congrats to trackercrowe and getbak...for NOT picking the baby making Brenchels and winning bragging rights for this race!

[ernie]

booooo

terrible final leg. If you are that susceptible to a bad cab driver it's a terrible final leg. Not saying they didn't make other mistakes because they did but the cab driver sunk them.

No memory test just a straight sprint. Producers concentrated so much on sponsorship that they forgot to actually put a worthwhile champions leg together.

As my wife said last night halfway through...it's bad when I want all three teams to lose.

[Arsenal14]

I don't mind skipping the memory test because the teams all expect it at this point and take notes about everything. That being said, you still need challenges where it's actually possible to make up some time. There isn't a lot of variation in how fast people dig holes or screw in lightbulbs and the helicopters weren't going to pass each other so it basically was all about the taxis unless somebody completely screwed up.

Yeah it was such a bad season finale. I couldn't believe that was all they had to offer.

[trackercowe]

AR is moving to Friday's in September, so make sure you note the change. I don't know if that'll be the death blow for the show, but it still does good ratings. It's never received the same treatment as Survivor or Big Brother though, even though it's always been well perceived by the public.

[OutOfTheCube]

Yep, that was probably the worst final leg in the history of the show.
