I've been so far behind so I haven't participated in this thread. I'm rooting for the dad/son team (deaf dad, red shirts).. I LOVE them. I WAS liking the father/daughter team but the last two episodes she gets so snippy. (I love her hair though..lol) The out-of-towners.. glad they are gone... I hated when they were yelling that and the skinny one and her voice.. ugggg. The two brothers (long hair/short hair).. I kinda like. They seem like they had a lot of mending to do in their relationship. And then the rest.. none really bother me too much. I don't mind the longer episodes but I can't watch Survivor and Amazing Race in all one night.. too much.. We watch it the day after, on demand on Paramount +. It is the WORST app on the planet. Always buffers/gets stuck on commericals, and you can't FF thru commericals so it takes us at least 2 hrs typically to watch an episode. I feel they are too long anyways, but really feel it when we watch the next day.

So last week's episode continued in Slovenia. The two women friends came in last and the two black brothers were first once again, with the married couple second, the daughter/father team 3rd and Rob/Cory 4th. I think that's how it went.

I just love Greg & John, and they seem unbeatable. I thought Robbin & Chelsea had a great attitude-they knew there was no way to catch up so they just tried to enjoy the last leg and luckily finished it.

I was glad to see them go, as they were so unhelpful to other teams early in the race. I wonder if there will be another U turn. If so, I'd think the brothers would be the obvious choice to U turn. I think this week's episode will be the 10th leg, so Rob and Cory will have to use their express pass. Seems almost like a waste to have an Express Pass that only works for two legs - the one they earned it in and the following leg. I could be wrong though.

I’m happy with all the teams left! Except I’m not fond of the daughter in the father/daughter team.
Love Rob and Cory and both the 2 male teams. The married couple are okay but I really want Rob and Cory to win!

I was so glad to see the team that left go. They just weren’t nice people. Not a fan of the daughter on the father daughter team either. She’s obviously a spoiled brat. Hopefully they go next!

I wasn't sad to see the two women leave, I wasn't a fan of theirs. Something about them just bugged me. My favorite is the son/dad team.. Cory and Rob?? I LOVE them...

My view of them was colored from the beginning when the one friend said that the other had been her childhood bully which ended when they landed on the same sports team. Then the two of them were pretty unfriendly to the rest of the teams which only reinforced my dislike. Like others I'm not a fan of Anna Leigh, but otherwise I like everyone else left and wouldn't mind any of them winning (although I'm routing for Rob and Corey to win it all!).

Really happy that the guys were #1 and really weren't aware of it at the moment.
That girl from Texas is nasty to her dad. Downright rude to him. Wish that they had to go home instead of the couple that left.

Just watched last night's episode. We were on pins and needles as we knew Rob and Cory should have saved the Express Pass for the next challenge. The married couple wife took way too long to make her wreath perfect ~ if she hadn't spent that much time, they would have beaten the daughter/father team. The 3 teams that got bad info on finding the subway were making me very nervous.
The finale is going to be something!
ETA: the sky-diving was awesome. It was so nice seeing all the places in Sweden as we are headed there in May.

Drink every time Anna Leigh screams "come on dad!" as her dad's struggling to run That's annoying, but not as much as her whining and pouting when they were behind the pack a couple of episodes ago. The woman in the eliminated team had several bouts of negativity during other legs, but she seemed to be a better sport than I thought she would be this episode. The last four teams are all really strong. I think it will come down to navigation and luck rather than skill.

I was also really hoping Anna Leigh and her dad were the last team. She’s super annoying and lucky her dad is so patient to tolerate the way she treats him. I honestly thought he was going to have a heart attack this episode, thank goodness he didn’t. She’s also really good, which is annoying for other reasons. They've made a few dumb mistakes but she sails through those challenges.

I don’t think I have that much alcohol in my house! I was afraid he was gonna have a heart attackI know! DH says it's awful the way she runs ahead yelling *c'mon dad!* without looking back to see that he is in distress! It's a shame that Rob and Cory told them they needed to get on the subway, not the bus.

It's a shame that Rob and Cory told them they needed to get on the subway, not the bus. Especially after she had been screaming at the bus driver to leave them behind! (Now what if the bus DID leave? And Rob & Cory found the subway on their own? THAT would have worked out more to my liking...)

We loved this week's episode! It is amazing how many places they are visiting where we have been. Our hotel in Dublin was a block from the church/park where the pit stop was! And our 3 favorite teams made the final 3!!! The dancing was awesome, having to memorize those poems was brutal (DH and I realized that at our age we would have struggled!)
So it's an all male final 3. So glad the father/daughter were eliminated. Poor guy, when he was swimming we thought he was in dire straights.

We were in Dublin last year and our hotel was near St Patrick's Cathedral too. So fun to see the teams running around the area there. We will be in Cologne in August on a Viking cruise so that was fun too seeing it and the cruise ships. We love all the teams left and will be happy with whoever wins. Not sure I could even pick a favorite but I guess the father and son. We thought the son was making a little love connection at the river dance.

We thought the son was making a little love connection at the river dance. I know! He's a cutie! When we went to a Irish dancing show in Galway, the lead dancer broke her leg right on stage. It was awful. She was an award-winning dancer and it was heartbreaking.

Ive been MIA on this and survivor... i still haven't caught up on survivor... but binged amazing race this morning to get on track...
A lot has happened since I last posted... i wanted the married couple to beat the dad n daughter... i agree with others about the daughter having no cares about her dads distress.... it was really aggravating to watch... and he busted his ass and she is still a pouty baby to him...
I really enjoy the brothers relationship... and i loved the recitation at the pub.. it was a performance not just said straight out to get it done... and i loved the brother who did the dancing... he was soooo into it.... i wish they wouldve showed more of him practicing...
I also love the relationship between dad and son... and the 2 friends...
This is a final where i will be happy no matter which team wins!!! Im really excited about it and am happy for all 3 teams

In the middle of the ep right now and Anna Leigh screaming at her dad as he's straight up STRUGGLING in that water 😭😂 then he asks her if he can walk up the hill and she's screeching at him!
Like if your dad had a heart attack and the last thing you said to him was HURRY UP ?!?!? I'd die.

Her dad kicked ass and I think I already posted this but she’s damn lucky he has the patience he does. Most people wouldn’t put up with it, even family members who know each other well and knew what they were getting into. I really want a follow up mini-series/hallmark movie of the son going back to Ireland to get the girl. They were adorable.

I wouldve been happy with any of the final teams... and even though i wanted rob n cory... i am good with the brothers...
I did feel bad for the friends.... almost so close.. but man.. it was heartbreaking to watch...
But those brothers have such great skills and communicate very well with each other... i was happy with their win....
If any of the guy teams got snippy with each other they never showed it...
