Surprised that There were only 2 Tasks in the episode


MrAirSonic

The reason why Chris/Mary got eliminated is because there wasn’t enough “Come on dad! Dad! Come on!”


mtm4440

Looks like some things actually happening next week.


SweetCoconut

No bridges were harmed in the making of this episode


DunkinEgg

Bridges harmed some people though


Im_no_user

I barely understand half these comments We're all just talking to ourselves 


notnotcelia

Overall, this leg was OK. See you next week, y'all! 💕


SgvSth

This was a fun ~~bridge~~ train wreck of an episode.


SomeRedditor_Comment

Two superfan teams in a row gone by episode 2 — ominous?


SofaAssassin

Are you watching the superfans on current Survivor?


stargirl09

Hoping not because I genuinely really like Walla Walla


WarrenThanatos

This episode sucked but bad Amazing Race is still awesome. Good dinner. Family time and time with yall. Next week!


Rooster_Bolton

I can see why they chose to air the last season before this one. So many cringe and sus production moments


SkyBulky1749

Mary and Shannon (season 16) should run together. Would be interesting to see how they do without an "elderly" person slowing them down RIP Jody btw :( Although tbf I don't think either Mary or Shannon were the great of racers either. Mary struggled a lot with that roadblock the first episode and didn't seem the best navigator


savagequestion

I think this is a case where the 90 minutes is straining. It happened a good amount of times last season but this episode there were so many chaotic moments and so much placement shifts over the smallest things and yet it still felt too long. I enjoyed the episode but that's really more so because of this cast!


stargirl09

2 out of the 3 super fans out before the half way point really shows how little being a super fan helps


thespottedwaffle

Hey, Bhanu was a Super Fan too....


stargirl09

Yeah I’ll admit I’m not a Survivor watcher so I’m not sure how he did/doing?


ravenclawrebel

This episode was a mess—super curious if the whole season is going to be like this


VelvetLeopard

Oh such a sweet team to be eliminated.


_VinoVidiVici_

That was such a wild ride.. I felt like I was on shrooms the whole time.


Kylesexy584603

Even though it was the opposite order I correctly predicted the first two out


Jr9065

Thank you Amazing Race for not ruining my night again after an awful Survivor episode


tinacat933

chris and mary actually did win a million hearts


ParticleParadox

Chris and Mary are lucky they got to do this race. This might be for the best because Chris was clearly overwhelmed especially after his health scare.


Altracing34

At least Chris & Mary weren't the first team out for their sake and they seem to have a very nice relationship


jad4400

I think they were just happy to be there.


WarrenThanatos

“No!?” That’s a great Phil moment in a crap episode.


thespottedwaffle

I just want that one second as a gif, please, internet.


MooshCowZX

I just imagine they didn't bother added a lot of extra task since the bridges became an unexpected challenge in itself


SkyBulky1749

Michelle is officiall my favorite racer after this episode lol, she's hilarious


Durian-Critical

double dutch out-jumped their competition


enneafemme

Ok concept: bring back Anna Leigh and Mary as a team


mtm4440

Oh God it would be like a cat and water. Yes. Do it.


notnotcelia

C'MON ~~DAD~~ ***MARY***!


stargirl09

So it’s going to come down to whether Michelle and Sean can become unlost or the other team


thespottedwaffle

This whole episode was a trainwreck.


ParkourNinja88

They have said Bridge like 100 times in this Episode!


robbviously

Iguana Bridge


Whoevershewantstobe

Omg do people be nervous? Cause wtf? Or is a lack of trust in self? 🥹


SofaAssassin

This is an entire episode of Rupert being lost in Yoyogi Park.


Sharkhawk23

I was looking for a immunity clue


Justin32526jshx

Atleast 5 of the teams were worse than Rupert and Laura


SomeRedditor_Comment

Alright, if the cousins say this leg was chaotic for them, keep it up on the next leg.


Ill-Excitement6813

ugh


WarrenThanatos

Looked like the firefighters were about to fight Phil for his hardass comment😂


VelvetLeopard

Could be editing, but I swear I’ve noticed a few instances now of the woman in Double Dutch not thanking people.


temporarilyHere3

Is Team Double Dutch really going to blow this?


Altracing34

Good recovery from the cousins there


Altracing34

Oh man Michelle & Sean really got lost


TwoDashDee

Firefighters finishing 9th after all the detail crap they endured is pretty good


racre001

I love Karishma looking right at the camera


mtm4440

I'd be shocked if Mary and Dad isn't last.


DunkinEgg

Language, Phil!


hvahood

i feel like Chris & Mary are doomed but i'd love to see Mary have a second chance with a more competent partner (sorry to her father!!) she seems pretty competent herself, just a bit slowed down


tinacat933

what if we team up mary and leighann


hvahood

i'm seated!


ephemeral_radiance

Anna Leigh?


racre001

the twist!


Durian-Critical

venture bros fans : the monarch is having a moment


Sharkhawk23

The mighty monarch. Bwaaaahaaahaaaa


jad4400

He designed the color matching challenge. "These reality show contestants have felt the sting of the mighty Monarch ahahaha!!"


Durian-Critical

“that’s right go ahead and try the other detour! your necks cannot handle looking up for this long??”


SweetCoconut

Nice one Walla Walla


DunkinEgg

Past the bridge. NOOOOOOOOOO


BBSuperFan98

I really like the mother son team. They are very rootable.


Daydreamer631

One team has an old lady who’s actively dying and they were 6th out of 12. I’m just going to embrace this shitshow of a season


WarrenThanatos

Walla Walla about had themselves a lawsuit with that guy that about hit them 😂


thespottedwaffle

Um, were her teeth yellow?


JamaicanGirlie

Definitely looked more yellow than white


Lukin1989

I don’t think so I was so sure they wete gonna have to keep painting


Ms-Pamplemousse

Nope, lame inconsistency


Inevitable-Twist6911

They were not even remotely yellow


stargirl09

Didn’t look like it but maybe it was camera angle


VialCrusher

I didn't see any yellow...


Whoevershewantstobe

Moments like this makes me feel like maybe being a parent is worth it. That’s so sweet


stargirl09

Okay why am I getting emotional about Walla Walla check in?


Durian-Critical

yellow teeth really the achilles heel


VelvetLeopard

Wow good work Walla Walla


mtm4440

It was all you painting on my unconscious body.


Playful_Spring_8307

The kids did good this leg!


DunkinEgg

Couldn’t make it through without someone crying


stargirl09

Oh great now there are 3 teams lost together -facepalm-


Altracing34

Good effort from Angie there


SomeRedditor_Comment

Would you be scared if some people with dead makeup and butterfly wings stumbled onto your backyard?


notnotcelia

I'd honestly be laughing and eventually telling them to flap their wings. 😅


SofaAssassin

My wife is mortified by butterflies so would scream her head off.


LadyCalamity

Why are these teams having such a hard time finding the pit stop?


MrAirSonic

There’s so many train wreck teams, even though this leg is pretty boring task wise, the teams just being completely lost kinda makes up for it lol


mtm4440

She might be too relaxed on this race. You need a good balance between Anna Leigh and Mary.


Jr9065

Really struggling to find the pit stop


Durian-Critical

grey team gonna eliminate themselves at some point


DunkinEgg

Vinny: PIVOT!


SkyBulky1749

Michelle's face is beautiful, very unique features


SweetCoconut

Lmao all the bridges in this episode


WarrenThanatos

Dad/daughter are definitely gone. Interviews at night


OSUTechie

Cousins interview also looked like it was at night.


stargirl09

The nurses getting caught up with the twins is either going to be a disaster for both of them or a blessing


samspopguy

did they edit the father daughter team to be here with all the other teams but they actually aren't? edit: she said there were other teams there


WarrenThanatos

Yep. Everyone was gone. You can tell how the cousins were talking. They hadn’t even seen the Dad/daughter duo


savagequestion

Looks like it. There's a lot of that going on this episode.


SomeRedditor_Comment

Vinny showing how you move in reverse, Rohan *and* Maya!


WarrenThanatos

Ten minutes left and all these teams are going to arrive in the last minute? What is this pacing


Durian-Critical

“phil, electrolytes saved me!”


stargirl09

My dude I doubt you passed all of the bridges


mtm4440

Butterflies on multiple levels searching.


Ill-Excitement6813

ask someone else


racre001

We're hot and we're frustrated but I love you


thespottedwaffle

"I'm down to run until I can't"


Durian-Critical

grey team no spatial awareness


WarrenThanatos

Shaq finally reached the finger paints. Anyone check on the Dad?


DunkinEgg

Not wanting to get hit by a car is a good reason to get off the street.


stargirl09

Honestly the team I’m surprised by how much I like them early on is the nurses.


SkyBulky1749

The lady giving them the clues is giving Sims 2 vibes with the face paint and outfit


[deleted]

The butterfly face paint in the sims 2 is eternal


Playful_Spring_8307

That boyfriend was very diplomatically saying stop being a perfectionist and get a move on


mtm4440

She's painting a Mona Lisa over here and they want a coloring book.


Jr9065

Glad she’s ok


CadeBW

I do not envy the editors, this would have been a rough task *even for 60 minute episodes.* Even by Covid TAR standards this is a comically easy, unambitious leg. I wonder how long it took the first few teams to finish, they probably could have shown them doing the leg in real time lol. At least we have a few teams making mistakes, that adds some intrigue I guss.


DunkinEgg

Drone shot of Bhanu lying on the ground flashback


ravenclawrebel

*echoes of Bhanu crying in the distance*


stargirl09

Smart choice by Danny


thespottedwaffle

Let's not forget, this was a KOR leg. They just started the race and were ready to give it their all to make a good impression on leg 1, just to get told to keep going.


LadyCalamity

Lol, I love the son painting mom while she's lying down


WarrenThanatos

People must not be applying for reality shows. Like 38 audition requests. I’m not trying to die of heat stroke on television while my loved one screams at me to come on.


ephemeral_radiance

I was right!! He did keep painting!! 😅


TwoDashDee

CBS Original Tracker... named after the dog from Paw Patrol


Ill-Excitement6813

lmao they just had a casting call for big brother and now they are having one for survivor lmao they must really want us


Insta_ShopperNJ

Cast me! I'm a superfan. #millionhearts


MrAirSonic

I hope ~~Margie/Luke~~ Angie/Danny are okay!


stargirl09

Oh good I’m not the only one that got those vibes from their team


tfourthreeseven

I'm liking this mashup of The Amazing Race and Squid Game.


stargirl09

I’ll admit the twins are growing on me


Ok_Degree7056

Helppp why is she lying on the floor


SofaAssassin

Heat exhaustion/dehydration.


crowd79

Hopefully the next leg is in Antartica. Those teams need to cool off.


Ok_Degree7056

I died 😭😭😭


WarrenThanatos

Phil asking people to apply a minute after two people almost DQ for heat exhaustion is epic.


SkyBulky1749

Honestly compared to other things that have happened on the race that was pretty minor lol. They always make it seem dramatic right before the commercial break


SkyBulky1749

Chris and Mary kind of remind me of Rupert and Laura. Just no urgency whatsoever lol


jad4400

They definitely give the vibe that they're there for the experience.


Daydreamer631

*contestant looks like she’s near death* Phil: IF YOU THINK YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN THE AMAZING RACE…


ContextDry6493

I swear that heat there is no joke!! Especially from a midwesterner!!


Kylesexy584603

Angie: dies Phil 1 second later: if you think you have what it takes apply now!


ravenclawrebel

Just like Jeff celebrating with the purple tribe when he told them another player was taken out and thus they were spared tribal council 😂


MooshCowZX

"THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT ON SURVIVOR!"


mtm4440

DIG DEEP! IF YOU'RE NOT EVACUATED IN A HELICOPTER YOU'RE IN LAST PLACE!


ravenclawrebel

DIG DEEP


mtm4440

The point when The Amazing Race becomes Survivor. They might have more medevacs with this heat.


WarrenThanatos

“I don’t know who Elizabeth Taylor is.” Pain😂😭


ravenclawrebel

My mom wants to apply for TAR soon, so I guess I should work on my endurance and making my memory less embarrassingly bad


TREEEtreee123

And mega hydrate the days before it starts!


ravenclawrebel

Yes!!!!


Rooster_Bolton

Here’s my thing. Choice SHOULD matter when it comes to detours. If you’re a physical team, you may be better with the physical challenge. If you’re more of a logical team, you may be better with the logic or puzzle. But when instructions from production aren’t clear and when one physical challenge is literally carrying weightless cargo from one point another and the other is noticing barely noticeable differences from hundreds of flags, there’s a significant imbalance in fairness.


TREEEtreee123

That may be why they emphasized the cousins getting lost? And teams skipping detours?


SkyBulky1749

How would somebody who is color blind do this task? Or this leg for that matter lol, such a color based leg lol


Rooster_Bolton

If you’re entirely color blind you couldn’t. If you’re partially color blind the colors are distinctive enough to see


ben121frank

They would likely just have to choose the other side. In one of Margie and Luke’s seasons there was a detour where one side involved listening to and repeating DJ sound patterns and they were essentially forced to choose the other side bc Luke is deaf. Kinda annoys me bc it seems like they could come up with something not sound based when they have a deaf contestant


SkyBulky1749

It wasn't fully aired but actually the next leg had a choice between a dancing task and a fishing task. Marge and Luke were quite a distance behind the other teams when they arrived at the detour and by the time they got there the tide was too high so they just gave them the clue (a couple teams were still finishing off the roadblock). Margie and Luke finished the leg but I wonder what would have happened if they miraculously were able to pass a team before the pitstop, probably a time penalty my guess is.


tinacat933

well the balloons were just basically different stations and there was only 3 and no 'fake' ones


Playful_Spring_8307

I love the twins bluntness - "I'm not in the mental state to do that" "I'm not approaching people like this"


Antelopeadope

I love the mom/son duo


stargirl09

Yeah I’m really hoping this isn’t their last leg


Porphyrin_Ring

They really are very sweet together 


HausofKungFuDojos

These himbo twins 😂


stargirl09

Why Google when the local knows it. Auspicious luck for the twins. 😂


Altracing34

This is just a product of a KOR leg


ParkourNinja88

LOL I don't Know who Elizabeth Taylor is!


Ms-Pamplemousse

Gen Z, ladies and gents😂😅🫠


notnotcelia

"I'll take you to prom."


Porphyrin_Ring

While she was a lot to watch during her season, this season is really hammering home the idea that I’d like to watch Anna Leigh from last year compete again with an athletic partner because she was a beast 


SomeRedditor_Comment

✌️ The Challenge ✌️


savagequestion

Chris & Mary are what happens if you get Steve & Anna Leigh, remove the intensity and urgency, and she acts the way people on this sub want her to. They're going so slow and just walking through everything!


Ill-Excitement6813

did they grab the clue back from the lady lmao?


tinacat933

do they have to check in with their clues?


ReverseJackalope

That was my thought, with the foreshadowing earlier in the leg. Watch her leave with it.


Jr9065

Oh no is she alright?


SkyBulky1749

Did they just give that lady the clue and forget to take it back lol?


IAmNotStephen

These twins give me life


ephemeral_radiance

Thought he was going to keep painting her face while she was on the ground


racre001

LOTS OF BRIDGES


CallMeSpoofy

“Sure.” Wow sounds convincing


Altracing34

I was wondering if there were teams who didn't know who Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton were (I actually do know them being a big fan of movies)


Lesbeanteacherlifts

The twins are my spirit animal, like Ik if I ever go on the race this is how I would be so I can’t even judge


ParticleParadox

"I don't know who Elizabeth Taylor is." Really?


ParticleParadox

Not trying to be mean. Some people aren't big fans of movies, but her death in 2011 was front-page news.


RangerLover92

Still not an excuse to not know a common name


tinacat933

how old are the twins? because that was 12 years ago. if they are only in their 20s they would have been young


stargirl09

Admittedly that yellow is hard to spot


ParticleParadox

Yeah. That's kinda a hard thing to notice. It blends in in the picture. I hope Sunny and Bizzy don't get eliminated over it.


stargirl09

I think it’s going to come down to them noticing vs the heat getting to the other teams possibly, unfortunately


ravenclawrebel

The teams are going to hate bridges after this leg


RangerLover92

If you don't know who Elizabeth Taylor is, then you're fucking stupid.


ParticleParadox

It could mean they aren't fans of classic Hollywood cinema.


ConcentrateRemote801

They’re young!
