The OFFICIAL Amazing Race - Season 6 Thread

Here's Jonathans official excuse for why he treats Victoria the way he does:

All of us have our faults. Unfortunately for me millions of viewers are getting to see mine each week. I do not abuse Victoria,
what you see is a heightened version of stress and obsession mixed with medication for a sickness called Sarcoidosis. What was started as a Publicity Stunt turned in to an obsession to race and be first at any cost. This is a GAME and I set out to be the Villain to others, not to Victoria. Victoria and I are working on our relationship to better our selves and learn from our mistakes. I am taking full responsibly for my actions on screen. Please allow me to make the effort.

I am deeply saddened by the storyline that CBS went with, they had so much other footage they could use. I am sorry for my actions, I am sorry to Victoria. Most all I am sorry to the Fans of the Amazing Race.

There was one time when he looked like he was about the slap her when they were in the cab but seem to notice that everything was being filmed and just kept on yelling. The guys a serious whack job. This guy wants kids too.

His "sinccerity" when talking about kids, contrasted with his behaviour, creeps the hell out of me. Just the way he said "We already have names" was just cringe-worthy.

Yep. :D That's it.

There is a guy on my express bus that looks exactly like that bald brother (the big one) who was on that season. I swear its him.

Just out of curiosity, do any of you post / lurk at televisionwithoutpity.com? Some of the references y'all have made are being made over there too.

Well, I do...there's a funny story about that, but I won't get into it.

Although I posted here before heading to TWoP, so any of the same references being made would be entirely coincidental.

And we all know full well that he's picked out names and Victoria doesn't get a say.

Also, Rebecca saying something like:

"I'm a cool girl to hang out with!"

If you say so Rebecca. If you say so.
 
Apparently Hera left this in the guestbook on Jonathan's site:

From: Hera McLeod
To: Jonathan Baker

I am always in town so we should totally get together soon. Yeah, CBS is tricky with their questions...they definatly tried to rope my dad and I into shit talking about you on several occasions.

I am not sure if I said this in my last e-mail but my dad actually said in several interviews that if he had to choose another team to run the race with again it would be you and Victoria because you two were fair and never broke your word. I told them that contrary to pop belief you two were two of the only people that I never worried would throw me in front of a train just to get ahead. You all ran a clean and fair race and it is just a shame that CBS isn't showing how much you know about the game and all the genius things you did to get ahead.

I hope that you two are able to prove that you are not the devils they are making you out to be. BUT, my dad is right.....negative press is better than no press...in a few months people will forget that they hate you...but they will remember your face! Talk to you soon,

Hera

I mean Hera! Damn it. VICTOOOOOORIAAAAAA, how do you edit a website. What do you mean you don't know how. You IDIOT!!!
 
Noticed something about J and V in that preview...

it seems jonathan refuses to do the climbing detour and forces victoria to go to a boat one instead, which looks like a tedious searching one. Dare we hope that they are purged from our screens this week? Just watch, if they come in last, it will be non-elim, and televisions across the nation will be smashed.

Maybe it's me, but I want them to stay to the final 3. Then get beat right at the end in the dash to the finish. :D But I don't want to see Victoria to be killed on national tv.
 
I would love to see them in a foot race to the finish line with another team. Victoria gets to the finish line first.... but Jonathan is too slow and the other team gets there before he does. The show fades to black as Victoria shoves him and screams at him "Jonathan, you're so STUPID!"
 
Victoria: *screaming bloody murder*

Jonathan: *shrugs* I don't know what's wrong with her!

Other Chick: *pissed* Jonathan, go HELP HER!

Can't wait for next week's episode. :D

EDIT: Is it just me, or are all the remaining teams pretty much... jerks?

Kris and Jon smile at you with kindness, so I'll yell at you for them, since they're far too nice to do it themselves.

Whether I hate the rest of the teams or not, damnit if most aren't racing REALLY well. Freddy and Kendra and Jonathan and Victoria both annoy me, but they always seem to race well between tasks. Jonathan and Victoria, though, struggle with those tasks. Kris and Jon and Freddy and Kendra seem good at both, while Aaron and Hayden, Rebecca and Adam and Lori and Bolo struggle with Point A to Point B.

Good episode...Kendra seems pissed at Jonathan in the preview. I wonder what her injury was. And I wonder what happened to their pants.

Kendra yelling at Jonathan looks awesome.

Adam's such a loser. Rebecca can be so nice for a bitch.

Who was shocked when Jonathan chose to do one of the easiest pit stops yet? No one? How strange. And he still fucked it up.

I can't really see why Hayden thought she'd be good on this show. Why would you go on a programme called The Amazing Race if you can't read directions?

Next week looks cool, but this one was sort of dull. I'm still stoked about that WELCOME TO BUDAPEST guy from last week, though. That guy rules.

I was hoping the Frenchie would top him

Yeah that psychotic Budapest guy kicked ass.

I wonder what happened to Victoria next week. Jonathan just stands there saying he didn't know what happened to her. Run over there a$$wad!!!!


I really do believe he wants her to commit suicide though. :/

I was laughing my butt off when she sent him to the wrong buoy. :lol :lol

What's up with Hayden? She can't drive standard and she can't read a map yet SHE constantly complains that she's doing all the work? WTF? She seems like the most useless of the team members to me.

Was it her that wanted to do "research" at 3:30 am when everything was closed and they didn't even know what the next clue would be yet? This was a couple of episodes back...

Nah, I *think* that was the other model chic Kendra.


They're both stupid! :)

I was happy that last night was a non-elimination though since Jonathan and Victoria weren't last. I would be majorly pissed if they came in last only to find out it was non-elim.

I'd like to see that just to see Jonathan flip out only for Phil to inform him that they aren't actually eliminated.

Kris and Kendra is fucking hot. Oh man... this season is climbing up there to be one of the best... just not the best yet.

Amazing Race 7 starts march 1st...... 3 weeks after the finale of 6.

http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_main/1,1002,271|93015|1|,00.html

"The Amazing Race 6" will conclude with a two-hour finale on Tuesday, Feb. 8. A Dr. Phil special and a "One Day at a Time" reunion show will fill the time period on the two Tuesdays between the finale and "The Amazing Race 7's" premiere."


Now, my pic for elimination tonight? Adam and Rebecca. No fast forward tonight, guys! :D

They're pushing their luck. Three entire seasons within 10 months? That's INSANE!

My pick for Elimination: Kris and Jon. I just have a feeling. The previews appear to show Freddy/Kendra and Jonothan and Victoria out in front AGAIN, and I just think something will trip them up.
 

Nerevar

they call me "Man Gravy".
WHOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO!

on a side note, I hope they go HD with the Amazing Race soon. This is one of the few shows that would benefit from it dramatically. Although I'm guessing the constant travelling makes it much more difficult.

It was a preety good episode and LEMME SAY THIS AGAIN. KENDRA AND KRIS, I WILL BONE. The preview takes the cake though... Bolo's reaction after he got the mouthful from Lori is HILARIOUS. :lol

Good episode. I'm sad to see Jonathon and Victoria lose. They were great, especially John. The way he talked to Victoria was hilarious.
