The Amazing Race: November 18 Episode Blog Party



The show isn't scheduled to start until 8:30 PM here in the NYC viewing area. I wasn't keeping track, so I don't know if it will start any past that. However, once it does start, I'll update this entry with the major events.

But ... as always, the real fun is in the comments area. Come join us as we watch the show!

8:50 PM ET, and we have a start! We still have last week's unfinished business at hand. James and Abba need to find their passports, two teams are still the synchronized swimming. Josh and Brent ended up getting a four-hour penalty -- they couldn't finish the swimming as the pool closed for the night. The last two teams are still working together.

Abbie and Ryan, Josh and Brent hit the Pit Stop at teams number four and five. Josh and Brent get their four hour penalty. James and Abba don't have their passports yet, but it's a non-Philimination. They're still in it, but still need to get their passports.

They're remaining in Russia for now.

Roadblock -- Who's in the zone? Figuring time in different cities. It's nowhere easy as it sounds.

Detour - Movers or Shakers. Learning a Russian soldier dance or identifying historic Russian leaders at a costume party.

The twins used their Express Pass to get by the map/time zone roadblock.

Pit Stop -
1. James and Jaymes! They won a trip to Costa Rica.
2. Trey and Lexi
3. Natalie and Nadiya
4. Abbie and Ryan
5. Josh and Brent
6. James and Abba ... still don't have their passports ... Philiminated.

Hey, Jackie.... and anyone else who arrives. I hate these late starts.

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Jackie!!! Looks like it's going to be a little late tonight.

How's things going for you?

Penny

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Becky!!! How are you doing?

Penny

Becky said...

Penny, I am doing great today... mainly because it was a good day for Momma. Yesterday was a sad one.

What channel?

Becky said...

Jackie, those were terrific pictures today. But we have come to expect top notch from you.

I posted about the difference between Southern and Northern hurricanes on the picture blog.

Y'all get the short end of the stick. I am not gloating, I feel sorry for you.

Sharon S said...

Hi everyone....hoping it starts soon... I forget who I'm rooting for though, last week seems so very long ago.

Nickelpeed said...

Becky - (((hugs)))

Sharon S said...

Oh...the passports... :(

Nickelpeed said...

Well, who's it going to be? Josh and Brent or the two rockers?

Nickelpeed said...

Find that passport!!

Sharon S said...

Sounds like Josh and Brent's penalty is a delay at the start of the next leg rather than delay for checking in?

Becky said...

Since the hippies losing their passports the goat farmers and other team might have a pchance. Yes, they do.

Why don't they carry their passports, money and anything of importance in a fanny pack? I guess it is for the samed reason they don't bother to learn to drive a standard shift card.

Other than the twinnies I like them all.

Jackie S. said...

At this time, I don't particularly dislike any team other than the twins. But I fear they're too strong a team to not make it through.

Becky said...

Lucky for the hippies, this was a non-elim.

Sharon S said...

That cabbie was hilarious!

Nickelpeed said...

I hope the rockers find their passports. Or I think just one of them left it in their backpack.

Nickelpeed said...

Wow, I don't know if I could even get this one either. I wonder how much time they have?

Nickelpeed said...

That is funny.

Becky said...

The teacher reminds me of a very bad actor movie Nazi. Ve will ask the questions! Thepencils DOWN -- or to the oven.

Becky said...

What rotten luck.

Jackie S. said...

James and Jaymes have really grown on me, as have Trey and Lexi.

Nickelpeed said...

I like both of them, too. I really like Trey and Lexi since the beginning.

Nickelpeed said...

Oooh Great. Here comes trouble.

Nickelpeed said...

Wow, love the dancers!!!

Becky said...

Both teams have grown on me too.

Nickelpeed said...

LMAO! Heeheee. Funny.

Nickelpeed said...

I feel so sorry for the rockers. Man, that is terrible. It's just too bad that the taxi driver wouldn't turn the stuff in to the US Consulate. :-*(

Becky said...

WOW. That's my team!

Nickelpeed said...

He's a little cocky. Making the same mistake as the others. Adding too many hours.

Becky said...

This teacher would make me drop out of his class....and maybe the school.

Nickelpeed said...

I just realized how close it was to the end of the game. Wow.

Nickelpeed said...

I feel so sorry for those guys. I wish someone would turn it in.

Nickelpeed said...

Love that guy. LOL

Jackie S. said...

I'd burst out in tears trying that time zone map bit over 20 times.

Sharon S said...

I think I'd be in tears over the passport too.

Nickelpeed said...

Me, too, Jackie. I probably would have thought the way they all did at first. However, he thinks he's so smart; at least Lexi thought of it sooner. I wonder if he'll ever think to only add 2, etc.

Nickelpeed said...

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, now he gets it! Yes, you are.

Nickelpeed said...

Wow, first time....good going!!!

Becky said...

Jackie, I am so tired that I am afraid I will forget to thank you for hosting. Thanks, this show and survivor gatherings here have become most of my social life lately.

Nickelpeed said...

Poor guys. I feel so badly for them. Very sad.

Nickelpeed said...

Jackie, I won't be here for the Survivor Blog again, I have to work. I also won't be here next week either because I will be at my MIL's. She has not Internet.

So, I better wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving now. Hope it's great for all of you!

Sharon S said...

So wish something could have happened to knock the twins out. :/

Nickelpeed said...

Ooops, I said that wrong....I won't be here Wednesday because we'll be on the road to my MILs. She doesn't have Internet. LOL

Nickelpeed said...

This is sad, darn it. I liked the Rockers

Nickelpeed said...

See you all next Sunday. THANK YOU, JACKIE!

Don't eat too much turkey!!!

Jackie S. said...

Aw, the one always reminded of the cowardly lion (in looks).

Sharon S said...

Thanks Jackie. See you Wed.

Jackie S. said...

I'm thinking Wednesday will be the "never seen before" clips show. But I may be wrong.

Becky said...

Those goat farmers are smart. Of course one is a lawyer in NYC.
They are safe.

I think they make plenty of money. Not that it will help the hurt, but at least they aren't broke.

The dating couple have been so different that other daters who have been on. They still get along and do not get rude.

Thanks, again, Jackie. See you Wednesday.

Becky said...

Happy Thanksgiving, Penny. It will just be Tommy and I here.

Jackie S. said...

Thank you everyone for coming tonight!

Sharon N said...

Just finished watching.
Too bad... I really like the rockers too.
Seem like they are good guys.
