With an opening shot that hits the sonic pinnacle, this collection of spiritual Brit pop/rock is heavily influenced by Keane, Travis, Coldplay, and U2.
In the final episode of The Amazing Race 3 the teams traveled from Vietnam to the finish line Seattle. The episode featured the biggest televised meltdown of any contestant on any reality television program I have ever watched. Oh, and the worst part was the team who won the race!
In Episode 10 of The Amazing Race 3 the teams traveled from Singapore to Vietnam. The episode featured Flo yelling, crying, and whining, two teams getting very lost, and one of the most surprising eliminations so far!
Episode 9 of The Amazing Race 3 was a two-hour episode that had highs and lows, whining, yelling, crying, flirting, mermaids, bungee jumping, goats, and a Singapore famous television star! This column focuses on the first half of the episode, which featured travel in Switzerland
In part two of Episode 9 of The Amazing Race 3 the teams traveled from Geneva to Malaysia, encountered more product placement, and swam with mermaids. It was an exciting episode, despite my disappointment that one of my favorite teams was defeated.
Episode 8 of The Amazing Race 3 was an exciting episode with nearly a photo finish! The episode featured travel from Germany to Switzerland, intense competition between the teams, and a budding romantic relationship.
Episode 7 of The Amazing Race 3 featured travel from Morocco to Germany, showed how bad luck can ruin a team's chances at the big reward, and demonstrated the perils of a flat tire.
Episode 6 of The Amazing Race 3 showed exactly how big a mistake the trailing three teams made by putting the wrong gas in their vehicles during the previous leg, featured travel through the country of Morocco, and presented scenes of Ian continuing to act like a jerk.
Episode 5 of The Amazing Race 3 was also another exciting episode! It featured beautiful travel scenes from Portugal to Morocco, half the teams making a major mistake, and the return of Eve-like behavior.
Episode 4 of The Amazing Race 3 was an exciting episode from start to finish. It featured travel from Scotland to Portugal, incredibly bad driving, and the worst mistake a team has made since Momily or Team Guido in TAR 1.
Episode 3 of The Amazing Race 3 was a very entertaining episode. It featured travel from Mexico to England, the Dunkin' Bald Brothers, and the Highland Games!
Episode 2 of The Amazing Race 3 was not nearly as entertaining and funny as last week's episode, but did feature various beautiful locations of Mexico, wave runners, and a bus/car crash!
The premiere of The Amazing Race 3 couldn't have come soon enough for me. Most of the new fall season is a bust as far as I'm concerned and this first episode was the funniest hour I've seen on television in months. I love this show!
Episode 10 of The Amazing Race 2 featured travel across New Zealand and the elimination of my very favorite team: Danny and Oswald. They were fabulous, but not fabulous enough to go the distance
Episode 9 of The Amazing Race 2 was another non-elimination episode that featured the teams traveling from Australia to New Zealand, an international airplane incident, bungee jumping, and sheep.
This is Part Two of Episode 8 of The Amazing Race 2 where the teams traveled from Hong Kong to Australia. In this part, we said hello to the Outback and goodbye to Gary Dave, thank goodness.
Episode 8 of The Amazing Race 2 featured a special two-hour episode where the teams traveled from Hong Kong to Australia. This is Part One of a two-part description of the episode. This part was the best part of the episode because viewers found out exactly how dumb Wil and Blake could be.
In episode 7 of The Amazing Race 2, the teams traveled from Thailand to Hong Kong and viewers saw the last of Mary and Peach. That marks the last of the two-women teams in this race.
In episode 6 of The Amazing Race 2, the teams traveled throughout Thailand and even though I expected it, I was still disappointed that there was no elimination.
In episode 5 of The Amazing Race 2, the teams traveled from Namibia to spend one day in Bangkok and visit a bat cave. Also, we say goodbye to the Pastors.
Well, I heard the rumors and wondered if they were true. Is it possible that Stephen, he of "the slap heard around the world" could have been charged with prostitution? I figured he had a lot of issues, but this rumor seemed to be a bit outlandish. I mean Stephen couldn't really be that messed up and desperate. Could he?
In the third exciting episode of The Amazing Race 2, the teams traveled over at least 4 continents to get from Brazil to South Africa. The most important thing is that Team Granny is finally gone.
The second episode of The Amazing Race 2 was marked with hang gliding, transportation difficulties, a lost wallet, poor language skills, and twins' injuries.
The premiere of The Amazing Race 2 couldn't have come soon enough for me. The show has all the drama of the original series with more conflict, more tears, and a big Jesus Christ.
Episode 13 of The Amazing Race was the long-awaited finale. Rob and Brennan saw victory, narrowly defeating Frank & Margarita, while Joe and Bill experienced the agony of defeat.
Episode 12 of The Amazing Race was another non-elimination episode that should have been part of a two-hour finale, but for some reason CBS saw fit to air it by itself.
Episode 11 of The Amazing Race was an elimination episode with an exciting but heartbreaking conclusion. Despite the two-hour lead Kevin and Drew had on Team Guido, Kevin and Drew were the latest team eliminated from the race.
Episode 10 of The Amazing Race was not an elimination episode, and therefore the episode was not as exciting as last week's. However, regular viewers of the show learned one important thing from the episode: exactly how huge a mistake Team Guido made in episode 9.
I must admit, I really like the elimination episodes of The Amazing Race. There is a greater urgency to the players' activities the weeks where there is a team elimination. This is certainly true of Episode 9.
Episode 8 of the The Amazing Race was interesting and exciting, but it also was a bit of a letdown from episode 7 because there was no elimination last week.
Episode 7 of The Amazing Race was the most intense yet. In this article, I will not do a summary, but focus on an analysis of how the teams fared in their sprint toward the Pit Stop.
Episode Six of The Amazing Race was an interesting episode for many reasons, not the least of which is because there was no elimination. This article a recap (my first ever), highlighting events that gave me additional insight into how the couples are working together and the conflict between teams.
Last week, I mentioned the roles that luck, misfortune, cooperation, and conflict can play in couples race toward the finish line in The Amazing Race. After episode 5, I would like to go over my assessments of the 6 remaining couples and predict over the long haul (and perhaps the next episode) how the couples may fare.
Although The Amazing Race (TAR) is about how quickly couples can make it to the various checkpoints, TAR is also about how misfortune, luck, cooperation, and conflict can affect a couple’s ability to make it across the finish line. This article is about the seven remaining couples in the race and my analysis of their chances of winning the game.
Races. Exotic locations. Conflict. Drama. These elements are involved in two competing series, “The Amazing Race” and “Lost” that feature teams running across the globe to be the first to earn their handsome reward. However, the two shows couldn’t be more different in how they are structured.
This column is about my favorite of the reality tv shows, "The Mole." I loved the show so much that I contemplated applying to get on the Mole. It's my kind of game show. It takes a lot of savvy and research to do well in the game and I like trying to figure out things.
