Awww, I have fondness for Against All Odds. Probably because I, too, am an 80s child. It reminds me of a summer spent at the Hollywood Boys and Girls Club. Good times. Good times.
And yeah, it is ridiculously hard to sing, especially because any girl who sings it tries to go for the Mimi version rather than the Phil Collins original and she definitely takes it to a place that most singers can't go.
I'm not sure I've ever seen anything better than these TAR people trying to learn Welsh. Possibly because I've long been a fan of how the words look written down, and the pronunciation is more amazing that I ever dreamed!!
Trying to do that with travel fatigue...I'm impressed that they got it done at all.
I didn't like the top four and like the top three even less.
I am also less than thrilled with this top three, especially considering that there were so many teams in this All Stars go round that I actually liked a lot. That said, two of the three teams have consistently performed well this race, so I can't hate that much. The third team is bleagh, but I have faith that they have zero shot at actually winning.
This was an enjoyable leg and tough! This season has been pretty good, all things considered. And next week, Vegas, baby! Looks like it will be fun. Wish we could've had a better winner.
I liked the Afghanimals a lot more this time around. I don't know if it's just the editing or a little more wisdom and maturity on their part.
I'm scared that Rachel will have useful Vegas knowledge.
On feminist principles, but against game principles, I'd be happy if the singers won.
Is there a way they can all get DQed?
At least I won't be able to say that any of the teams doesn't deserve to win.
If I hadn't been watching TAR all season and you'd told me who the final three teams were, I'd have immediately said I was rooting for Dave and Connor but they have been really insufferable with the whole anti-Brenchel alliance. And I can't root for Rachel. Though she's been significantly less horrible on this race than on the last, that still leaves her at a good 50-60% more horrible than is acceptable in any type of grown up person. Plus she wore hose with sparkly green shorts. Foul! And stanky. By process of elimination, I have to root for the Country Singers. Yet, they have the least chance of the three to win seeing as how they are really awful racers and are only here because they've been riding other teams' coattails the entire race. Sigh.
Kat, I feel quite the same way. I have decided if the country singers do manage a win I can be happy with that. They may not be great racers but they played the game to make up for their short comings.
