Well, I recorded the first night (because I work on Sundays) but it must have been more then an hour! I missed the wall climb - arrrrrr!

I love this show, very interesting to see the early dynamics with the tri-athelete/amputee.

Amazing Race was/is on Sunday night? You mean I missed the first episode? I love this show and was looking all over for it and couldn't find it. Darn!

Yes - Sunday night! grrrrr

And, two teams already eliminated. The Bestfriend's/Muslims and the Indian couple. They started the race in Seattle this year, 1st stop was Beijing, China.

The female half of one couple was born with one leg smaller then the other, and must have had it amputated, she uses a prosthetic leg.

The amputee kind of disgusted me when she openly admitted she'll use her handicap to her advantage whenever the opportunity presents itself. She even flagged down a cab, and pointed to her leg and told them it was an emergency. I do have to give her a lot of credit for climbing the wall. So far, none of the people on it really appeal to me. The teams must apply at the Jerry Springer Show! There is the "Billy-Bob Team", the "Flamboyantly Gay" team, the "Gay Daughter/Straight Father", the "Single Black Mother's Team," and so on. I'll still watch it though.

Love this show too!
Was sad to see the India couple go. You could see the mutual respect and love with them. My husband is annoyed by the gay guys already, I find them entertaining.

It's kind of like Survivor and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, after the first few seasons it gets a little bland. Sorry to be a downer.

The gay guys need to be eliminated, they are anooying as hell! I was thinking the same thing about the chick with the prostetic (sp?) leg, but then they said something about it leaking hydraulic fliud and not working properly. And hey, she did climb the wall. I was bummed about the Indian couple. Thye seemed like real people, not a bunch of drama queens. Oh, well, still a good show.
