The Amazing Race Season 35 Thread

I used to really enjoy the show but now it just becomes tedious watching teams do the challenges after other teams have done them faster or better

I end up fast forwarding through most of the episodes

They really needed to bring back the express pass and different flights, good to hear. Interesting how it’s going to be shown out of order though

I was in Dublin in July and I am pretty sure they were at my hotel. I saw some “teams” sitting around a table and it looked like they were holding the clue cards

I think it was last season when I had to quit mid-season. The BLM and SJW preaching got to be too much. A father/daughter duo came in last on a non-elimination leg but still wanted to quit. Phil and the dad had to talk the obese woman into staying. They lost the next leg and were eliminated but we got to hear her complain for 2 episodes and it was obvious she didn’t really want to be there.

At least they have one white/hetero married couple this season. They’re almost 40 so the odds are against them. Zero white/hetero boyfriend&girlfriend, though.

Survivor figured out how to build a good cast and still adhere to CBS’ reality show quotas so maybe Amazing Race can do the same. I’ll follow the thread to see how the season’s going and maybe jump in at some point.

The season is starting off pretty good. There’s not a team I cannot stand, except the team that just got eliminated. The skinny one was irritating.
I do like the deaf father/son, the old Asian couple, the hot redhead from Texas, and the two computer geek black guys.
