So last week the singers got eliminated, which was a shame, since they were so likable. I am quite surpised at some of the teams left, though, like Team Tattoo and the guy who is paired with his elderly dad.
Anyway, coming up this week the description says a vegetarian has trouble with a "Norwegian delicacy," (something gross, I am sure!)
I am still really liking this show. I look forward to it more than any other show I watch!
The most hilarious part of last week's show was when the teams were leaving Africa, and the tattooed guy told the cab driver to take them to the Arctic Circle! I had to rewind and watch it twice!

Once again, Team Tattoo cracks me up by having no idea how a fast forward works! Did they never watch the show before being on it? Yet..they still managed to not be the last team again - surprised me!
I'd like to say I will miss the volleyball players, but I don't think we ever really got to know them.
7 teams left - who will be eliminated next? I am still betting on the tattoed team, but they seem to continually luck out somehow.

Well, only 4 teams left...and Team Tattoo is still in the race. I must say, I am amazed. The guy is such a jerk, though, I really hope they get eliminated this week. They have some major hurdles to overcome (including a 6 hour penalty!) so I really expect them to be the next team to go.
So...who are you rooting for? and who do you think will win?
I am actually rooting for the shopping hosts! I think the blonde babe is so funny and crazy I want her to win.
My pick to win though is (forgot their names) the non-tattoed guy and gal team. We'll see if I need to revise this prediction after this Sunday.

Nick and Vicki are the tattooed team. She is such a sweetheart but I really think he is the biggest douchebag I have ever seen on this show! A despicable failure of a man in every way IMO. I have no idea what she sees in him but she should really get out of that relationship fast before his mental/emotional abuse turns physcial.
Jill and Thomas have been my least favourite/most boring team on this show since episode 1... so of course they're going to win. It happens every time without fail with this show. The team I don't like always wins.
I'm going for the doctors, Nat and Kat, so I'd love to see them break my curse at last.

Team Tattoo is finally gone! Yay! The good thing is, I don't hate any of the teams left.
The thing is, the Nick and Vicki could have been in the race. If they had just completed the task the previous week, they would not have gotten the 6 hour penalty, and they would have been with everyone else at the airport. The guy just gave up, and that knocked them out of the race.

Ok, last chance to get your bets down!
My earlier opinions have not changed - I am rooting for the shopping hosts, But here is the order in which I think the teams will finish:
1) Jill and Thomas 2) Nat and Kat 3) Brooke and Clair
Anybody else wanna weigh in?

I'm glad the good doctors won and that now we don't have to hear about all-female teams never winning the Race again.
Even though I thought the producers were somewhat obviously gunning for just this outcome from the get-go.
If I were Jill or Thomas I'd be more than a little suspicious...

Happy with the result but I did feel sorry for Jill and Thomas. That taxi-driver was unbelievable!
It was a pretty boring episode though and one clearly engineered to favour an all-girl team win. I mean the final task is flower-arranging!?!
Looking forward to next season and the return of some fave teams (hopefully).
