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.

  7. 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.

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  12. 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.

    ReplyDelete
  13. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  15. That cabbie was hilarious!

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

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

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oooh Great. Here comes trouble.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Both teams have grown on me too.

    ReplyDelete
  23. 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. :-*(

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

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

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

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  30. 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.

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  33. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  35. 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!

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

    ReplyDelete
  37. 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

    ReplyDelete
  38. This is sad, darn it. I liked the Rockers

    ReplyDelete
  39. See you all next Sunday. THANK YOU, JACKIE!

    Don't eat too much turkey!!!

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

    ReplyDelete
  41. Thanks Jackie. See you Wed.

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

    ReplyDelete
  43. 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.

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

    ReplyDelete
  45. Thank you everyone for coming tonight!
