Rachel and her sister... I cannot stand listening to and looking at them. I really don’t like commenting on people’s looks, but when it’s self-imposed, that’s a little different. Stop with the plastic surgery and lip injections, especially the sister. And I thought Rachel’s voice was bad, my God her sister’s is worse. She has that really phony Kardashian type speech. It’s like nails on a chalkboard for me. Afghanimals, quit lying to everyone. It WILL come back to bite you. I used to like them but they are starting to fall from my grace. I agree 100% on Rachel's sister's lips. She looks like a caricature to me. I wonder if she thinks she looks good? And I totally agree about the Afghanimals.

I haven't watched TAR for several seasons but did catch it tonight. Oh my heavens, I don't even know who the couple who placed last are but they were such sore losers!

That was Eliza and Corine from "Survivor". They were awful losers! And Eliza was pushing my last button during that moped challenge... all her whining and carrying on about how scary it was and how difficult it was, etc. omg it was only a moped and they weren't even in traffic. I am VERY glad they were eliminated and I hope that none of the other teams friend them on social media or invite them to anything after the show. That way Eliza won't have to worry about declining those invitations.

I was hoping the sisters would get eliminated, but after Eliza and Corine's horrible display of being sore losers, I'm glad they are gone. They didn't just go after the sisters, they put down every other team. I don't recall ever seeing any other team from previouis seasons act that way.

I’m so glad they’re gone. I couldn’t stand to listen to them any more!
I’m rooting for team fun! They’ve always got a good attitude.

I always feel bad for the 1st team starting a leg in the early hours (2 or 3 am), only to discover everyone will catch up before the place opens. Chris & Bret did a great job getting back into the middle of the pack. Corinne & Eliza need to take lessons from Colin & Christy on how to mature and mellow. I like Elissa but cannot take much more of Rachel. I was surprised at how close the final two teams were and died laughing at Rachel trying to console Corinne and Eliza.

Oh good lord, those ladies were just awful. I don’t recall ever seeing a team being so ugly (rude ugly, not physically ugly) to another team on the mat before. I am so glad they are gone. I don’t care for Rachel or her sister, but they are not mean spirited or rude to anyone.
I don’t think I have ever been so happy to see a team gone before. I can’t imagine what Phil was thinking.

Nicole and Victor are still my favorites with a few other teams (Team Fun, etc.) being a close second.

Didn't I try to tell y'all what a nasty woman Corine was on Survivor? Well Wednesday night on "The Amazing Race" episode she made Survivor look like a warm up. She was nasty the entire episode to everyone and everything around her. Not just nasty but completely and utterly condescending and unfortunately she was rubbing off on Eliza too. In the cab they are looking out at all of the mopeds in Vietnam and in a nasty, condescending voice Corine says, "That is completely unsafe" and other condescending remarks about Vietnam. I hate when travelers do this-go to another country and expect it to be just like America. Big, huge open highways and huge cars. Obviously it's not! Instead she could have said, "Isn't it amazing how wonderfully the Vietnamese have adapted to using mopeds for their transportation. I admire their skill". Not in a million years would that have come out of her mouth. And especially when they do it (say nasty remarks) in front of taxi drivers or other native people-have some respect! And that was just the beginning. It got worse from there. Her comment about Eliza having such a hard time on the moped-"She didn't grow up in a trailer park with mopeds all around. She grew up riding a bicycle". WTH? Oh and another one, to Eliza "you know how much I hate manual labor". And on and on. Oh, and they tried to steal Rachel and her sister's cab first before the cab driver wouldn't let them and then made a huge, entire fuss of it when Rachel and her sister tried to do it back-Karma baby-it'll get you every time. Eliza's tears and whining at the moped challenge were annoying me to death-I thought if you'd stop your meltdown and just focus you'd have a better chance of getting it. I think she really thought there was no way in heck she was ever going to finish that challenge. I agree I have never seen two more mean players on The Amazing Race since I began watching and I've been watching it since it began. I loved those circular boats they were paddling (aren't those cool? I guess I like them because I love things that are woven like that and I love boats too) and I really liked that challenge. That challenge to me seemed a lot easier than building that water wheel. I wonder how fun one of those boats would be in the Chesapeake Bay here? I'll probably just stick to my small sailboat-my Sunfish. They did say those woven boats weigh a ton-shipping costs to me would be enormous but I do love how they look. It'd certainly be a workout for my arms I'm still loving Team Fun and Corey and his teammate (can't remember his name at the moment) and Nicole and Victor. So very, very glad the nasty girls are gone.

I was so glad they came in last- they were such sore losers and as much as they complained about Rachel and her sister-they acted way worse and could not even see it - I was so happy they were eliminated

OMG those girls were so rude and mean. I kept thinking did Rachael and her sister do something to them THAT bad for the way they were acting? I know Rachael can get on my last nerve sometimes, but she isn't purposely mean or at least REAL mean... Funny thing is I don't even remember Corien from Survivor.... SO glad they are gone.. bye Felicia!

Nicole and Victor have a podcast where they talk about the latest episode @cocoacalientepodcast and this week it features Eliza and Corinne "Team Villian". Nicole shared this on her Instagram.

Just watched the first episode of two that are on tonight. We were so ticked that it was non-elimination! BOO! Rachel wants to show her daughter how to be a strong woman but cries incessantly. Her sister even told her to stop. The dinosaur comp was hilarious when they were walking away from the camera. And the zipline ~ I would love to do that ~ Dubai is incredible!

The second episode was good as well although I was sad to see Janell and Brittany get eliminated. Going from Dubai to Africa was quite a culture shock. I felt bad for Cory and Tyler and am glad they were treated with kindness from the people they interacted with. I like most of the teams this season. I thought it was interesting when Colin made the comment that *Season 5 Colin would have reacted differently* when something bad occured. He really seems to have grown.

I loved Elissa telling Rachel to knock off the tears and whining. We lost the TV signal for a couple minutes while they were talking to Phil and the second episode was already on when the signal came back. I was so shocked to see them still there. Colin & Christy are evidence that people can change. I never thought I'd have them in my favorites list, but they are. The Afganimals and the Rachel half of Rachel & Elissa are the only teams I'm not loving this season. I wonder how many other teams might have made the same rolex mistake Janelle made if they weren't in the pack and seeing what others were doing. I felt bad for her, and glad they realized they had one final chance to save themselves before they headed to the final challenge. I also wish Elissa hadn't been able to coach Rachel through the challenge.

It wouldn't have been fair if Elissa hadn't been able to coach Rachel since every other team's 2nd member was able to coach. They're annoying for sure but that was pretty funny in the cab.

I was very sad to see it was a non-elimination leg because I sure am ready for Rachel to go home! ugh. Her sister is okay, but Rachel is on my last nerve. My favorites are Team Fun and the Gay Guys (I never know anyone's names unless they annoy me enough, like Rachel... ) Personally I loved the scenes in the Kampala market because it reminded me of the years I lived in Africa. Watching the faces of the Ugandans as they were watching the racers make the "rolex" was fun.

There was a learning curve so they definitely had the advantage over Britney and Janell. It seems like every team that attempted it won on their next try. I hate the head to head comps anyway, and this one was worse because it was learned behavior, sort of. Once you tried it you had an advantage over a team that hadn't.
