The season takes for fricking ever these days.

Hard to remember Turbo, Nam, even Laurel were on.

Seriously, when they were having to put the pairs in order of who was eliminated, I was like they were on this season.

Also had forgotten about Kim and whatsherface too.

And didn’t even recognize a couple of the names. I would’ve liked sucked at that, although I guess it’s a little different when you loved it on the show as the cast. But still.

I forgot how much worse Turbo’s act had gotten. It was last entertaining and I remember just wanting him gone from my TV.

I just looked, the season started in early October.

Granted for them it's 6 or so weeks instead of 4 months.

I completely forgot about Tommy and Analyse, Kim and Colleen, I even forgot Darrell and Veronica were on.

Devon saying he needs to get a job and saying he wants to be a super villain had me cracking up. Me to Devon, me too.

I feel like they hyped this finale up to the nth degree, but it’s been the biggest snooze fest.

I’m also not entirely sure what Devin and Tori are getting for coming in first. It seems like they were ahead by a ton but they don’t get much for being in front when each day ends.

Also TJ following them on the 4wheeler while they run was hilarious.

My favorite parts are when TJ is cracking up laughing at them.

This final sucks. What the hell was day two wake up go for a jog push a car a little then all of a sudden fast forward and it’s fricking night time? Tori and Devin are getting absolutely screwed with the lead they built .

How so? They should have eaten faster? Fessy tapped out couple seasons ago on eating in finale. They all know its coming.

There was really no huge reason to eat faster. Even if Bananas and Nany get a head start they should catch them easily enough.

I like that they have TJ explaining the different games directly to the camera instead of us listening to him explain it to the cast.

Being from Louisiana, that water seems......unsafe. How the hell do they clear that water for wildlife to make it safe for the cast?

So Nany is hurt too? Jesus, this will end up being a fricking cake walk for Devin and Tori. Devin has gotten himself in decent shape this season and it's paying off. And Tori has always been one of the better girls on the show.

Jordan fighting Aneesa on a puzzle is not smart. And of course he realizes the pattern and she's like "No shite, dumbass."

Jordan and Aneesa helping John is not smart IMO. I get the strategy of helping so they don't frick you over later, but still.

I get why Aneesa is mad at Jordan, but she also wants to be coddled and not really push herself to try to catch up, so I also get why Jordan is pissed too. And Devin is right, shitty communication won't get you super far on this show.

At this point I don't really see how Devin and Tori don't win this.

Welp, nevermind...that's how. I absolutely HATE when they do tiered starts based on how you finished the day before. It completely erases the huge lead that people have built up. And it's fricked someone up bad before (was it Zack maybe, on the one that Cara won?).

Oho hey, a challenge where Aneesa's weight will actually help Jordan. Even with a bum ankle she can lean into that car and push it along.

This eating part looks brutal. That's a LOT of pasta.



TJ brings out the GIGANTIC bowl of ice cream.

Interested to see what happens in that cornfield with the elimination tower in it.

I hate Fessy, but to be fair bread, pasta, and ice cream is nowhere near on the same level as "drinking a pint of blood and eat sheep skull, ram testicles, and other innards."

And I agree that this final is way overhyped. The whole "100 hours!!!!!1!1!" thing is vastly overblown when the majority of the day consists of some light jogging, pushing a stripped car a couple hundred yards, and eating a typical Italian dinner. The older finals where partners had to do something mundane all night so their partner could sleep has more of an effect on players. This one has you sleeping in tents on a cot around a fire.

Yes. He had a huge lead that was almost entirely erased for the last portion.
