While I generally prefer "normal new people" on TAR, I think this season should be quite entertaining. Since this blog covers all three shows involved in the cast, it's all familiar faces. There are a few I'd personally not see again on the show :::cough... Rachel, Colin, Rupert …. cough::: -- overall, I like the teams chosen. I just think two of them have had more than needed of their fifteen minutes of fame and one is insufferable. Everyone (in their bios) think the former racers will have the edge. I guess we'll see!
I will be live blogging the major events as they go down from here on the East Coast. Refresh this page to get the latest news! As always, the party is down in the comments area. Please join in on the fun!
Lifeguard SueGee has made the random selections for the pool. Who's your team?
From Big Brother:
Rachel & Elissa -- Delee, Nickelpeed
Nicole & Victor -- Jackie, Jennfer
Janelle & Britney -- Donna in FL, David
From Survivor:
Rupert & Laura -- Brian, JonMD1267
Corinne & Eliza -- Dr_Celine, Caela
Chris & Bret -- Paula B, Megan in NC
From TAR:
Art & JJ -- SueGee, Willie J
Colin & Christie -- Donna NY, Petals
Becca & Floyd -- Merrilee, Judi Sweeney
Leo & Jamal -- Kelsey NY, Indiana Jane
Tyler & Korey -- Sharon N, Ed in Ohio
Are we ready? 1, 2, 3 … let's GO!
They're starting out in Los Angeles. We get the introductions from Phil.
It looks like this "reality clash" is going to take a few minutes.
They have to dig into a HUGE octopus sand sculpture for their clue to their first destination.
They're heading to Japan - Rachel, Rupert teams got it first. Colin and Christie have two children now -- 11 and 6 years old. We'll see how much he's matured.
All the teams are on the same flight to Tokyo where they'll have to take a bus to the destination for the next clue. Only limited numbers of clues are in either of the two locations. They're rather slowly finding the clues.
They are directed to the Roadblock in a building. Who wants a sweet new pair of shoes? Inspired by a crazy game show. They must find one pair of shoes, biting into it to see if it's chocolate. Some are still looking for the clues to get there. Rachel is running behind. So is Rupert. As for the shoes, they must eat the chocolate ones once they find them.
Leo and Jamal are in the lead followed by Janelle and Britney.
Who wants to climb Mount Fuji? Roadblock, climb 21 stories. It's a slippery slope. Meanwhile, Victor is having extreme issues with the chocolate sandals. Rupert and Laura are still roaming around lost in Tokyo.
Colin and Christie are next in line at the climbing behind the Afghanimals. The cousins are headed to the Pit Stop. Ohh … Phil said WILL be eliminated, not MAY be eliminated. Corinne and Eliza just got the clue to the shoes. Art and JJ are lost and just got the clue after two teams already hit the welcome mat. Rupert and Laura are at the shoe Roadblock with Corinne/Eliza and actually found the chocolate shoes first. Corinne./Eliza are thinking they're the last team. They don't know that Art and JJ JUST got the clue to the shoes.
Pit Stop order:
1. Leo and Jamal, also won a seven-day cruise.
2. Colin and Christie
3. Tyler and Korey
4. Rachel and Elissa
5. Becca and Floyd
6. Victor and Nicole
7. Bret and Chris
8. Janelle and Britney
9. Corinne and Eliza
Rupert and Laura are still roaming about lost. JJ/Art are still struggling with the slope.
JJ tells Art that they should take a four-hour penalty because Art can't make the slope. Rupert/Laura arrive at Mt. Fuji. They tell Rupert/Laura they're taking the four hour penalty. Rupert is the one going for the slope. They don't think he'll be able to do it either. And … he is making it! He got it!
10. Rupert and Laura
11. Art and JJ -- Philiminated.
I had predicted a Rupert first ouster. I was close.

Hi everyone!!! Thank you, Jackie!!!
Petals got the baad boy
Hey Janey!! Missed you!
Hello Jackie and all the rest !!!!
Yeah, I don't know my dudes! Is he a bad boy? heheheee
Janelle!!!
Of course my pool team is Survivor, the one show I do not watch.
I'm rooting for Janelle and Britney!!!
I just don't see Nic doing well, either.
Petals, look at Jackies blog from earlier today
There gonna destroy that octopus!
Thanks SueGee! I was hoping for Janelle & Britney, but I'll take the team I was dealt.
Love me the BB crews but I got Rupert and he is way cool
Hey everyone! All I can say is thank God I don’t have Colin... Sad that this turned out to be my biggest concern! LOL.... Thank you Jackie and SueGee
awwww, they are such a cute couple
Hi all!
Having trouble posting Ugh
Hey Jackie and all... thought I signed up on the right post for the pool..but i guess not..so get to root for whoever I want!!
go bb racers
My ox is broken lol
In fact what’s funny is I think I had Becca and Floyd during their TAR season! Cool!
Hi SueGee Petals Penny and Jenna. Jennifer and Jon and all who follow. I guess I will pull for the Big Brother teams and Survivor folks.
I love Rachel I’m sorry y’all lol
I forgot to jump in the pool. Rupert, Janelle, and Nicole those are my favorites!
The orange team is the quirky one? The goofballs?
Becca and Floyd are cuties.
Hi Cheryl I missed the pool as well.
Yeah, they are cute together! So are the Survivor dudes from Gen X v Mill.
She's great for reality TV!
ewwww...don't like the pink Survivor chicks. Meanies.
Well they were team b word lol
I like the Survivor girls and no filter!!
BB Nicole always seems so happy!
Oooh I am liking Corrine and Eliza!!!
The Travelocity commercial was cute
yes petals...definitely mean girls
I'm showing 3 people that said they forgot to sign up for the pool. Anyone else?? Since it is a small group of people maybe we can do something with the first eliminated & the forgetters???
Keep in mind that Eliza from Corinne and Eliza is an assistant district attorney in Manhattan. So, she must have some kind of smart filter! It's Corinne who has absolutely none.
My pool team is the married TAR couple, my love team is Janey/Brit, but I really like the gruff Survivor team dudes and think they have an actual chance to win.
Hoping Janey and Brit finally get a win!! Tow of my alltime bb faves
Rupert has a lot of heart & gusto, but that doesn't win a running race like this one. I worry for him.
No switching allowed LOL Stay on your floaties until philiminated
SueGee - I see three people on this post mentioning it. It's your call. We do usually reassign the first out. (Except Survivor these season because they check out and never leave.)
Lol
ditto Cheryl! I love my BB girl Janey & Brit, but I don't see them lasting.
ugh, that city would make me batty! Not enough Xanax...
Luv Janey & Brit! Hope they last!
Oh my gosh, that's like crossing the streets in Rome! LOL
That’s a funny comp
Shoe people might have issues with this lol
Jackie channeling 'Hotel California'
I'm going to Rome the end of May!! Can't wait
I like those guys, too. the ones who found the chocolate.
Lol jannelle
YAY Janey!!!
Janey!!!
I'm glad I didn't knock down Rachel down. She's my pool pick.
I really like Janey and Brit, and Nicole and Vic, too.
Cool, Sue!
Wow Janelle!!! Way to go!
Cheryl in NC
Glenn Allen
Jenna G
You want in on the pool?? I will add you and the two whose team is philiminated back into new teams tonight. I still have the deck of cards on the desk to pick!!
Those Japanese game shows are NUTS!
Oooooh, just seeing Mt. Fuji would be great!
Crap, it's not real! LOL
Poor Vic
I so love the challenges on TAR
Poor Victor.
43rd???
Poor Mr & Mrs Rupert.
Oh finally. They are so sweet together!
you are the best squeegee!!! and you will love Rome!!
I love them, too SueGee.
they have to eat the entire shoe???? yeeps
Just to a red line
OMGosh! He's got a silk outfit on!! No wonder it's hard. LOL
I don't want any one of them eliminated. Darn it.
Penny, that's what she said. Bwhahahaaaaaa 😆
You can see the difference when it gets up close. It's whiter than the others. I wonder what kind of chocolate? LOL.
Tahiti! How fun!
That’s when Phil should prank someone when they are the first team lol
Starting from Rome, we are going on a cruise through the Greek Isles, Athens & Naples too. Bucket list check check check
good job nicole
That's awesome!
Rachel in a unitard...
Well so far, those who have played TAR are doing well. Well, except for Nik and Vic. I love those two! LOL
Wow she got lucky too! Awesome!
SueGee! That sounds SO GREAT!!! When do you go?
Sounds great, SueGee (squeegee)
Thanks Suegee if can get in pool that would be great!
I have a Facebook friend who is cruising around the world with her husband.
Storm is getting closer Petals and Jennifer. Just saw lighting. Looks like we're in for some pretty good rain soon.
Becca and Floyd seem fun!
There’s no crying in the amazing race lol
Eliza with those eyes!!!
I don't really remember Corinne.
Not a fan of the pinkies
First I'm going to Iowa to connect with my son, dil & granddaughter (my dh won't fly) We fly to Rome on 5/25 overnight. I sure hope I can sleep some on the flight!!
lmao. He didn't get a clue
I can’t even say anything lol
Oh mo they walked right by it!
poor brett
Oh my gosh Rupert move lol
Oh no. I don't want Rupert and Laura out so soon. Crap. Oh well.
I got to spend Two weeks in Italy in 1985 with the North Carolina Army National Guard. It was a great experience got to go to Swisserland.
Lol that was funny, Janelle...
That was funny lol
Those two are not my favorites.
Europe is so beautiful.
Oh no!
Oh, poor Art
Oh is Rupert going to be last?
Jenna and petals... did you hear Gary say Survivor! Hhehehe
They are giving them a long time to be lost
Once the cast was announced, I predicted a Rupert/Laura first Philimination. Unless Art/JJ totally fall apart, it looks like I might have been spot on.
is it me or did they start with some pretty easy challenges on tonights show?? of course the last couple teams might not think so...lol
How did Rupert and Laura get lost? The only thing that will save them is if Art can't go on. How sad. I hope he's okay.
Always interesting the way these shows are edited!
Yes, hahaha we laughed he quickly recovered though. I was worried they were gonna stay on the news the way they cut in.
SueGee, On the original sign up post for the TAR pool Monty left a comment that she missed the sign up too. Maybe you can include her with the re-do.
I'll add Monty in too!
Oh my gosh Rupert do it do,it lol
Aww poor Rupert and Laura
Can Rupert pull this off???
Rupert Rupert Rupert
4 hours is a long penalty!
4 hours? Oh my gosh!
Oh my gosh they finally found it. Hope it doesn't take him 4 hours!
Sweeeeeettttttt
Com on Rupert. You can do this. I bet he's exhausted!!!
Poor Ron.
Rupert and Laura got another chance, they need to do better.
Well, I was close with my prediction!
Thank you Jackie and all who put this together 😀
See y’all next week!!!
