Needless to say, I am bawling right now. And he dipped her! *swoon*

Also? Brian and Greg, shave. RIGHT NOW. Thanks bunches!

ACK. *twitch* I think I'm already going through withdrawal. *twitch*

I'm on my third time watching that ending. :) Also, I need that dip on an icon like I need air, water and Cheetos.

I don't even watch TAR (read the TWoP recaps), but I got sucked in tonight.

Dude! This was like crack.

I know! Every finale is like crack, even the crappy ones. And it helped for that last half hour that if Uchenna and Joyce didn't win, I wanted Rob and Amber to win.

Yay! I think I'll rewind my tape and watch them win again. :)

So who won? Other than you, apparently.

Uchenna and Joyce, who are THE COOLEST PEOPLE EVER. Seriously, I had to capslock that. They're lovely, and they'll make lovely parents, and God willing they'll show up on the Early Show tomorrow morning with an adopted kid or a nice, healthy pregnancy. *hops up and down happily*

Oh good! Seriously, don't watch the show, but I follow your flailing, and I was just kinda hoping R&A didn't win.

I watched the last thirty minutes or so, and I was bouncing up and down in my seat even though I've never watched before. >D

Uchenna and Joyce taking the time to pay back the cab driver was awesome. >D I swear to god it gave me grey hairs, since I was cheering for them, but it was awesome.

It wasn't so much "taking the time" as it was the driver wouldn't let them go without doing so. They were sweating bullets over losing because of that.

I don't know. Joyce at one point suggested they just run through the gate and leave the guy, which I think they could have done, but Uchenna said "no, we gotta make sure this man is covered".

He said something in one of the articles about them winning that making sure the man was paid was about honor.

Can I just ... can I just have a Uchenna? Seriously? Pleeeeease?

I wanted to pet him so badly. >D Any man who will risk a million dollars to make sure he pays his cabbie what he owes deserves petting at the very least! (And the million dollars, of course, so he can pay all his cabbies in the future.)

It's good that he paid the driver, though, because his finding them the cigar shop was probably the defining stroke of luck that put them ahead of Rob and Amber at the finish line. They OWED that guy. >D

Not allowed by the rules?

I think running out on the cab fare would be breaking the rules since it'd be breaking the law, otherwise you'd see that sort of behaviour more often.

If they decided to just go through the gate, I can easily see them getting nailed with a 30+ minute penalty at the mat and losing because of it.

So paying the cabbie was good but honestly, they pretty much had to.

That was SO great. Yay! Good prevailed, and evil was defeated.

I was watching the last half hour hoping Uchenna and Joyce would win, and when they took the time out to pay the cab driver I was cheering them on, and hoping to heck that Rob and Amber weren't gonna win just cause Uchenna and Joyce were being nice.

I cringed, I worried, I bit my nails, I beat the sofa with the remote.

And then I wept.

And my fiance laughed at me. Booger.

...

Is it me, or did the dark-haired half of Lynn and Alex look slimmer?

And yes, Brian and Greg look gucking foofy with those sideburns.

...

So happy. So, so happy.

Gonna go to TWoP and see if their server has exploded yet.

If Britney Spears is allowed to become a parent, U & J should absolutely be. That's all I'm sayin'.

Dip!

It just goes to show that it doesn't matter where you finish in the previous legs, as long as you're not eliminated. It's only this one that counts.

The one time R/A could have used a guide, and it seems J/U were the ones who lucked out with a driver who knew the area.

And their speech! About people praying for them! I want them to have a family of happy little bald little ones.

I don't think I've been this happy to have a team win since Chip and Kim back in Season 5.

They just kept going, and it was just wonderful. I loved that shot of whoever it was (Alex maybe?) at the finish line, saying under his breath, "Uchenna and Joyce. Uchenna and Joyce." Exactly what I was doing.

No, I'm not sitting here in a big pile of tissues because I was just that thrilled to see them win. I'm not.

Except I so am.

*sniffle*

So awesome.

Thank you. They are so gross.

I was pretty sure they were going to win based on spoilers, but really started getting scared watching it.

You know I loved watching Rob & Amber, but it was really satisfying to see that good guys do sometimes finish first. They so deserved it.

BTW - love you icon!

I think it was an experiment in exactly how ridiculous they could get their facial hair to look. Not a lot to do in eliminationville, I guess.
