The Amazing Race - Season Finale Blog Party Post

Jackie's TV Blog, Amazing Race, TAR

Sigh, football again even for the season finale! I'm not a football fan at all to begin with and it really bugs me that CBS constantly schedules full episodic television on nights they KNOW the games run over. They ought to juggle the schedule and, if need be, schedule the football until 8 PM with commentary or whatever and lose a show on Sunday nights.

TAR is delayed by about a half-hour here in the NYC viewing area. Once it starts, as it airs here, I'll update this post with major happenings. Later tonight (or at least by morning) my show review should be posted over on TV Squad. But the real fun will be during showtime right here in the comments area. Everyone is welcome to join in! I'd like to see either Brook/Claire or Nat/Kat win, but all three teams going into this finale are strong!

NAT AND KAT HAVE WON THE AMAZING RACE!

Jill and Thomas haven't even gotten to the final task yet. Brook and Claire almost to the final pit stop.

Brook and Claire, number 2.

Jill and Thomas in, didn't show them doing the final task.

Wow! Next season's "Unfinished Business" looks like a bunch of great teams including some from this season!

  3. Don't think I'd mind any of the three pairs winning but maybe Nat and Kat because they've gotten along the best.

  5. Hey, everyone! I like Jill and Thomas, but I hope that an all girl team wins.

  6. I would be FREAKING OUT! I hate bungi jumping

    ReplyDelete
  7. I get queasy just watching them.

    ReplyDelete
  8. With the knee replacement, I'm forbidden to bungee jump. But I'd love to!

  9. You've definitely got cujones, Jackie. I couldn't unless my life depended on it. Even then, I'd be considering.....

    ReplyDelete
  10. I have no favorites here tonight so I am rooting for them all!! But I would really love to see one of the all-girl teams win!!

    Brought some guacamole & chips to pass - anyone bring the margaritas?

  11. I can not believe they have done a remake of True Grit...what next Sound of Music! Grrrr

    ReplyDelete
  12. This might be the most equally matched trio of teams ever at the finale.

    ReplyDelete
  13. LOVE Jeff Bridges!

    ReplyDelete
  14. And they all want it so bad!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Loving the fact that Nat and Kat are in the lead since they are my team in the pool. Especially since Nat made the mistake of not watering the roses, but they're still in first place.

    Did anyone else understand their next clue? I'd be totally in trouble.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I cannot believe they don't know who Sancho Panza is!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I just googled it! Don Quixote

    ReplyDelete
  18. Oh no I would be horrible about this!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Nat and Kat are my favorites. Jill and Thomas are not having much luck.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Is it not against the rules to take notes? Smart idea though.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Bungee jumping is easier than doing the final task!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Guy last year used notes, if I remember correctly

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'm loving this finale! Bob Eubanks sounds exactly the same. Looks old but so do I.

    ReplyDelete
  24. From now on I am taking notes on what the person was wearing and where in the world I am when after each pitstop.

    because right now, I am batting a big fat ZERO!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I knew the Quixote clue, but I've been known to tilt at windmills ...

    ReplyDelete
  26. I had to read Don Quixote in Spanish in 12th grade...HAHA

    ReplyDelete
  27. Even with their notes, they're not having an easy time of it. Brook and Claire are almost there, but I can't see them acing through it.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Nat and Kat may be done before the others even get there.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Trouble is if N/K have all correct except the Russian one that is when it is hard to figure out which is wrong!

    ReplyDelete
  30. If the other two teams didn't take notes, I hope they have a good memory for faces.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I know it is to early to call it, but I believe we will have the first girls only team with Kat and Nat being the winners.

    ReplyDelete
  32. "Bad" cabbies are rife tonight!

    ReplyDelete
  33. SPLASH for my team....1st girl team to win!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  34. NAT and KAT!!!! YAY!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Amusing comment that their first language problem was back in their own country.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Great! Nat and Kat won. The two little bimbos who didn't want an all girl team to win can eat dirt! Girls won #1 and #2.

    Jill and Thomas didn't even get to do the last taks, did they? What bad luck, that cabbie costs them them a million dollars.

    ReplyDelete
  37. This was a real feel-good ending to the season.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Jill and Thomas did not figure out Quixote so not all the cabbie's fault. Maybe!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Looks like an allstars race next season

    ReplyDelete
  40. Can't wait for the new season in January! All-Stars!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Oops! February 20!

    Last one out of the pool is a rotten egg!

  49. Not just an All-Star season, but finally in HD!!!

    ReplyDelete
  50. Just saw Nat and Kat and Brook and Claire on the Early Show. Claire is now a blond (with dark roots). She is also married and expecting a baby. Because of the pregnancy, they won't be on the all-stars season. Referred to the expected little one as her "watermelon" baby.

    That really was a good season. My wv is gurlys. Fitting!

  51. I am so happy that history was made with a female team finally winning the Amazing Race. And not only that, but two all girl teams won first and second !

    I like Nat and Kat. They were one of the only teams not shown to have any arguments and not to lose their tempers. They stayed calm the entire time. I think their medical training came in handy in terms of not losing their cool, staying focused, and staying calm.

  52. Ugghhh............so NOT happy about Luke the whiner and his enabling Mom coming back. :(

    ReplyDelete
  53. Yea for Nat & Kat! So happy to see them win, and to squelch the bad mojo from the volleyball girls! They were the worst part of Elimination Station this season, IMO.

    Excited for the next season and love some of the teams coming back!

    Will check back after the season finale of Survivor on the West Coast! Have a great week!
