I don't think that I've ever seen a new TAR starting up so soon after one finishes!

[615bride]

Wow that's fast!

[sassysu3]

:cool: Get Out! :cool:
Thanks for the info...I would have never guessed another one would be in line so quickly.

[jillette89]

Holy cow! Thanks so much for the update! This is the first season that I've watched the AR, but I'm officially hooked. :)

[Kristine]

Yay! I had absolutely no idea it was starting up again so soon. That's great news....it's really the only tv show that I watch regularly.

[Lil'Jmarie]

this is the first season i've watched it too, and i'm addicted! its so great that once this season ends we'll hardly have to wait any time at all for our next fix!!

[Mary Ann]

Wow, that's great!

[Aesha]

Wow! I knew that this season was delayed by several months... but I didn't realize the new one was already done and everything!

I really hope Chip and Kim win. I love them. Chip especially seems to be in awe of all they get to see... I loved when in Africa they sat and chatted with those people. He acts as though he feels... blessed, for lack of a better word.

I hope Kami and Karli get kicked off. I can't stand them. And I feel bad, because they're from the same town I am...

[GalNC]

I LOVE this show and have been watching since season 1. I'm so excited there's going to be a season 6. They almost didn't have a season 5! I really wanted Charla and Mirna to win but since they're off, I'm now rooting for the Bowling Moms. Colin absolutely annoys me!!

[luckylori]

Colin annoys me to no end, but unfortunately, they've been way the heck in the lead for so long. They've won lots of trips for being in first place, and it's just depressing that they remain in the lead time after time. I fear that they will win. I hope ANY other team wins.

[aggie94]

Did anyone see the previews of next week's show, where Colin apparently yells at Christie, in a state of frustration, "I hate you!"? :eek:

She seems WAY too good to put up with him - I hope by now she's dumped him and moved onto to something better.

I am glad the twins are gone - I'd like to see the bowling moms go next.

Ditto to everything you said Eva! I'm still pulling for Chip and Kim. :)

We saw it but we thought it sounded more like a sob than a yell. Either way, we'll be watching next week. Still pulling for Chip and Kim, although Chip needs to stop being nice and start acting like it's a race for a million bucks! (Speaking of which, my favorite line from last night's episode was when Brandon said "I hate this kind of thing!" about the Zorb and Nicole said "Yeah, but I want a million dollars." :D )

[mobear]

My DF agrees with you Stephanie. He wants Chip to start using those Yields! Although it was good of him not to, so he can use it later in the game. The Twins were dumb enough to pick the mud pit, so Chip and Kim lucked out!

The Bowling Moms GTG (got to go)! :D

I can't stand people who blame their own failings and frustrations on others (read: Colin)! DF keeps saying Christie could do so much better.

[granolagirl]

I hope the Bowling Moms win the race! :) Colin has got to go.

[tbb113]

Am I the only one that is ready for Brandon and Nicole to lose? I dislike them more than anybody that is left. I really want Kim and Chip to win though.

And out of curiosity...who wants to try sledging and the Zorb? My older son is ready to vacation there anytime just so he can try them out :D

[mobear]

I wanted to do the sledging. Much more dangerous than the Texas tubing (or toobing).

The Zorb had me worried as to whether my knee would make it (I had surgery on it last year) but it looked relatively tame. Like a big waterslide.

I am NOT A FAN OF HEIGHTS. I saw in the next episode they have to walk across something really high up. NO THANK YOU. :D :D :D I actually get a mild vertigo.

Edit to say: I meant adventurous, not so much dangerous about the tubing.

[gertdog]

I'd like to try both the Zorb and sledging, though I might start with a tamer sledge route (didn't they say that the last waterfall/rapid they went over was the highest/most dangerous in NZ?).

I like Brandon and Nicole- I find them to be kind of goofy and they are good together. I love how Nicole wanted to do the sledging but Brandon said no because Nicole might hit her head on a rock, and then the editors cut to a close-up of Brandon's pretty profile. I think Brandon's kind of a wuss. But I like them.

And I actually despised Colin a little less last night- he was obviously enjoying the tasks. Of course they were ahead the whole time so he didn't have much to complain about.

[buffygirl]

I actually like Brandon and Nicole. He seems like such a sweetheart.

On the other hand, I can't stand Colin. He is just downright mean to Christie. I can't understand why she puts up with it. They definitely do not pull together when troubles come their way. DH thinks they are both trust fund babies, not that there's anything wrong with that.

I really like Chip and Kim too.

Kim

[Jen]

We're rooting for Chip & Kim too, but we also really like Brandon & Nicole. I can see how their religion thing might be irritating to some people, but I think it's kind of nice. :o It's pretty rare these days to find people who are secure enough in their faith to put it out there on TV for everyone to see!

I too hope that Christie dumped Colin the second they finished the race...DH and I were joking the other night that they're going to have to come up with some kind of separation agreement as to what to do with all those trips they've won!

I couldn't stand the twins...so negative and nervous all the time!! I liked the bowling moms at the beginning, but they're next on the list of who I'd like to get rid of (next to Colin & Christie, of course, but I don't see that happening soon).

It is the religion thing that I find annoying. I don't mind that they are Christian and have faith in God. I find it annoying that they believe God wants them to win and helped them find the clue in the mud. Maybe its because I'm not Christian...but I really don't want a God that cares who wins a game show. :o

I thought the same thing! (I just watched it on tape last night). Also in the previous one about cutting their hair...Brandon said he didn't want Nicole to have to do it, and vice versa. But I also like them. They're cute and refreshing to me. :)

Tyra,
Brandon & Nicole remind me of my SIL. :rolleyes:

I'm with you there Tyra - Dr Love and I are pulling, every week, for Brandon and Nicole to bite the big one. When they came in last, but didn't get eliminated, the week before last, I'm sure all the neighbours could hear me yelling out "Nooooooooooooo!".

Dr Love and I would also like everyone to know that zorbing is not actually a mandatory thing in New Zealand ("Like, hey, there's nothing on TV tonight, let's go out zorbing"); actually, I didn't even know it had a real name! I thought it was funny when Phil (a New Zealander) said "...zorbing, something New Zealanders do, well, for fun". It's much more a tourist-y thing (although New Zealanders on holiday in tourist spots will go zorbing).
