They sincerely think Charla and Mirna are a class act? After all the stuff.

I want the Beauty queens to win, they've been so strong and competent, and for the most part for me they've been the least annoying of the remaining teams.

Yeah, the blondies have totally won me over.

I was just working myself up into a lather over Mirna's "It's life and death that we get to the base!" until I remembered about the camera crew, so it's less likely that anyone literally believes them. I hope.

And I'm bummed out that D&O are out, but they lost legitimately -- they really fucked up over the last couple of legs.

Mirna uses those accents on purpose so people will understand her???

I almost fell off my couch when she said that. HA!

Oh, Danny and Oswald. It is one thing to deprive me of the pleasure of you on television in the finale, but quite another to say that Charla and Mirna are a class act. I can maybe buy Charla but not Mirna.

I had a horrible thought that it was reality tv foreshadowing!!!!!

Oh, I can't believe that she really thinks that the key to good communication is the right fake accent!

I am totally rooting for the blondies.

Danny and Oswald: I can't believe that they think Charla and Mirna are a class act!

Mirna uses those accents on purpose so people will understand her???

I was SO rooting for her to forget her seatbelt during the food drop. But, alas, no luck.

Poor Team Cha Cha Cha -- they looked so tired at the end there. I'm sorry to see them go, and not just because it means Charla and Mirna (ptooi!) might actually win this one. They can't beat either of the other 2 teams in a footrace, but they are much much better at airports than Eric & Danielle.

TAR: Awww, Cha Cha Cha! But I knew it was coming. They were just too far behind to be able to get a half hour advantage on anyone.

I don't like anyone left. I guess I'll go for the beauty queens by default, but my heart's not in it.

So during my bouts with insomnia, I've been watching the Season 2 race on GSN, and I love that season Danny & Oswald. What happened to their strategy of going to the top hotels and asking the concierges for directions? It was so funny during that one to see them going shopping; Gucci, all that stuff, and then end up with a Mercedes ride to the airport. Meanwhile the other teams are all tired and miserable and cranky. But it was interesting to see that they had money issues that season, too, and didn't work it out this season.

Did it look like the final episode would be in Hawaii?

Yeah, the final episode looked very Hawaiian.

There's a BBC series called Secrets of the Ancients / Secrets of Lost Empires that does exactly that. I wish I could remember if it ever aired in the States.

This does sound like it is right up my alley.

On the Mythbusters front this season feels like a lot of the episodes are rushed. I really enjoyed watching more of the details on the builds in the earlier episodes it felt like more of the episodes were spent on the builds. It also seems like they are almost intentionally setting themselves up to have to retest some of these in their re-visited episodes.

TAR: Goodbye, Danny & Oswald! You ran a good game at least in the sense of having some class, wit, and out of the box thinking. If you'd been Yielded, you wouldn't have been crying that it was sooooo unfair.
