apocalypsosI'd just like to say before I even start that by the time I finish with this goofy thing, it'll be one in the morning. Notice how I complain about that like I have to get up before ten in the morning.
PHIL! Hi, Phil! I've missed you! *pounces*
Debbie and Bianca -- oh, lovely, high-maintenance chicks.
Lynn and Alex -- yay, the gay boys are so freakin' cute. Like puppies. :)
Rob and Amber -- aw, so darn cute in the hammock together. And they have a point ... they are used to this, sort of.
Ryan and Chuck -- hee. I like the hillbillies, so they'll probably get kicked off first and it'll be just my luck.
Megan and Heidi -- Oh, those two are so very hard to tell apart.
Patrick and Susan -- Hee, this is just a Big Gay Season, isn't it?
Meredith and Gretchen -- yay, old people!
Brian and Greg -- Huh. They're kinda cute.
Uchenna and Joyce -- If they want to have kids so much, adopt. Sheesh.
Ron and Kelly -- Well, aren't they patriotically cute.
Ray and Deanna -- Oh, these are going to be the two who drive me nuts, aren't they?
Yay, let's begin! *flails, spazzes out*
That black turtleneck is doing Phil a LOT of good. Mmmm.
Five minutes in, and Rob and Amber are already behind. Hee.
Joyce bugs me, and I have no idea why.
"Grab it like you stole it, baby." Hee. Hi, hicks. :)
My gay boys passing the hillbillies -- BWAH.
"We need to lose weight." Actually, Amber, you don't, but I can't complain too much because that's partly the reason I'd love to do this, too, and I'm not exactly fat, either.
Ten minutes into this and I've already dubbed Megan and Heidi Barbie Squared in my head.
Rob and Amber, don't get cocky yet.
Bwah. The brothers are so trying to get action from Barbie Squared.
Okay, if Ron and Kelly use the "All-American Couple" moniker one more time, I'm going to gag. It's nice and all, but STOP THAT.
Well, jeez, Rob and Amber, why not just walk to Lima? *eye roll*
Ah, my poor flushed gay boys. Hee. I'm amused how I immediately adopt the gay team every single time. :)
If you don't want anyone to know, then why are you telling someone about your Iraq experiences, Ron? 'Cause who wouldn't tell everybody else?
Hee. Were people cheering them in the airport?
It looks like downtown Baghdad? I'd take that as an insult, Lima, Peru.
Okay, I am having the hardest time figuring out the difference between Debbie and Bianca and Barbie Squared.
Note to self: Relearn Spanish and/or German if I'm going to try out for this.
I'd say that Rob and Amber using sombody else to get there is cheating, but hey, I love the fact that the guy knew them from Survivor.
HA. He may be dumb as a rock, but Rob's really good at making friends with people and convincing them to do what he wants, and that's not just because he was on Survivor. I'd watch it if I were you, Patrick. You'll learn the "You can't know people from how they act on TV" thing as the season goes on and you read Miss Alli's recaps (and you should).
Yay! The acrobatic Peruvian guy was awesome. :)
Aw, Rob and Amber have a horny Norwegian boy of their very own.
"We're racing around trying to win a million dollars and these people are trying to live day to day." See that, Kendra? At no point did anybody use the word "breeding".
Meredith and Gretchen are that tired at the prospect of five blocks? Jeez, why did you bother doing this?
I think I should start calling Debbie and Bianca Questionably Lesbians if only because they're certainly doing a bang-up job making themselves look that way to the others. Hee.
"Can you imagine if we didn't find that guy?" Yeah, Rob, you'd probably still be walking to LAX. *eye roll*
Aren't the hicks supposed to ride? Dumbasses. I see a penalty in their future, don't you?
Okay, seeing the mountain shot for Cusco made me think of Alive which is just a great big NO.
Dig, Rob and Amber, dig! YAY! Aw, they're cute together. But Questionably Lesbians was right, 'cause I wouldn't want them on the first flight with me, either.
Bwahahahaha. Telling 2-American-4-U to go dig with Barbie Squared was freakin' priceless. Don't listen, dumbasses. Plug your ears with patriotic wax or something.
"Ain't seven before seven-forty?" "Where I grew up, yeah." HA. Okay, officially love the brothers. They're pretty AND snarky.
Yay, my gay boys got seven o'clock! "I love you, Lynn." Awwwww.
Loved that nighttime beach bonfire.
Jeez, why wouldn't they want you to win again, Rob? Could it be because you already have a million bucks? (But I like you, so I let the smugness slide.)
Okay, the flight delay pisses me off, but I like it. It's not bunching so much as plan-fucking. I can get behind plan-fucking.
"Spring Break Shark Attack"? Oh, for crying out loud. *headsmack* Dear screenwriters, no more watching Jaws and The Real Cancun on the same day. Sheesh.
"Get used to being burned." Amen. Learn it well, my lovelies.
Aaaaand it's Questionably Lesbians in the Lead.
So, wait, they're giving the Colorful Locals names now? That's nice.
God, they're right. The Peruvian scenery is gorgeous. I like how this season opened with beautiful scenery you've probably never seen like it did last year in Iceland.
You know, it's one thing for Rob and Amber to be smug, because they have the closest thing to real experience for this. But Patrick and Co., stop giving them incentive to have attitude. Every time you make cracks about how good it is to be ahead of them, it'll spur them on.
Oh, I'm so going to have to get over my fear of heights for this. (And why is this the second season to start with a zipline? And why do I have a feeling that "open it when you get to the bottom" will come in handy later?
Between the llamas and the baskets, I'd choose the baskets even with the altitude problems. The llama thing is totally the "chance" option.
Questionably Lesbians, shut UP.
Listening to some of these teams mangle Spanish is funny. Especially considering Spanish is something you can get a general idea of from Sesame Street.
"When in Incaville, do as the Incas, right?" For someone who's supposedly stupid, at least he got that right.
Oh, Questionably Lesbians? Guess what? This is what you get when you pick the chancy option. The first episode is not the time for "so furious at you."
Patrick, do we have a crush on Rob? Because we do not seem to be shutting up about him and Amber anytime soon.
Philippe is just awesome. :)
*snerk* Rob putting his wool hat on over his Sox cap was so cute. "That's our good dead for the next thirty days." Hee. You actually did one?
Guys, you're in the first truck. All of you need to calm down, considering it's the first freaking leg of the race. *eye roll*
"It's like Splash Mountain!" Ah, my gay boys are so dependable. (And you know what? To make it easier, My Gay Boys from now on. :))
"Geronimoooooooooooooooo!" Yay for Meredith!
Aw, the brothers look so cute in their hats.
Okay, Gretchen, the last place I slap a llama in is the ass, especially when I'm holding the clue envelope.
"Gregorio"? Bwah. They like kids! I want a brother. Do they have a spare lying around?
"We'll be the first ones to load test it." *snerk*
Dear teams -- stop roping the llamas. I love animals, but even I'm not going to do that.
I'm impressed with Meredith and Gretchen so far. I mean, yeah, they're not anywhere near the lead, but for the token elderly couple, they're doing damn good.
Dude, Chad Lowe is paying a lying parent on Without a Trace this week! And your wife has two Oscars. See, you might say you don't have an inferiority complex ...
Oh, Patrick, shut UP. You're really starting to grate on the nerves with the Rob & Amber shit. It's the first leg, for crying out loud, and you're in first and second place. Either you get a free trip or you're in good placement for the next leg. Either way, lay off.
I need an icon of Lynn hugging the lamb YESTERDAY.
Not taking the llamas in pairs was a mistake. Two at once, if you're going to do it at all.
Okay, the brothers and My Gay Boys can work together all they want. "What am I saying? Very, very, very?" *snerk*
Go, Meredith and Gretchen. Again, they're doing wonderfully for the token elderly couple.
Patrick, it's not like you're fighting for last place. GOD.
They were stuck because of a van? Sheesh.
How bad is it that I wanted Rob and Amber to win the trip?
Damn, Questionably Lesbians won ... ten thousand dollars each? *headsmack*
Yay, My Gay Boys are team number five! They're still in the race. *happy dance*
Hee. Singing hillbillies.
Ha! The old couple is still in it! I'm always impressed when the old couple is still in it.
"Do you want a llama for a pet?" BWAH. There are so very many reasons to love Phil, and that's not a bad one to add to the list. :)
Aaaaand Barbie Squared are still in it. And they used it as an excuse for hugging Phil ... not that I blame them. Hugging Phil would comfort me, too.
Aw, poor hillbillies. They were cool while they lasted. *toasts them with a drink*
Next week: Rob can't get voted off, and it really sucks for everybody else that they have to get by on talent and luck rather than mental maneuvering. My Gay Boys get screwed by fishmongers. And hopefully, Phil continues to say "episode" in the cutest way EVER.

Date: 2005-03-02 06:37 am (UTC)And the $10k is a fantastic prize. I like that so much more. The look on the girls' face was great.
And Rob is just plain hilarious. I hope he stays 'til the very end.
On the other hand, I find Your Gay Boys are getting on my nerves already. Next week does not bode well.

Date: 2005-03-02 01:26 pm (UTC)Patrick, it's not like you're fighting for last place. GOD. I said that to my dad also. I tried to get him into watching it with me. They were all being like that... its obvious that you know about what place your in... and some of the teams were acting like they were totally in the back of the pack. I can see being like that when there are 5-6 teams left but some of them were getting really rediclous.

Date: 2005-03-02 02:24 pm (UTC)The problem lies in just how cocky they are. Yes, it's entertaining to watch, and yes, they have good reason to be cocky, but they can't just coast through this entire season. I know they realize that, and I know the others realize that as well, but they are already coming into this game with an attitude of, "Too easy, drill sergeant, too easy!" What'll bite them in the ass is if they can't come down from that to the realization that TAR is not Survivor. They're on their way there, but the other teams assuming they're the team to beat is going to feed their arrogance and just make it even worse for all of the teams. They definitely shouldn't be focusing all of their attentions on one team, because what'll end up happening is that another team will sneak up behind them and surprise the hell out of them.
Blergh. I ramble. :)
hi
Date: 2005-03-02 02:37 pm (UTC)i had never watched TAR before last season when my housemate got me totally addicted to it.
so happy that Rob and Amber are there this season, it's going to make for some very interesting conniving. and wonderful recap, thank you!
