I’m not sure I set my DVR properly last night. I only have one episode. I’ll look on the sometimes working On Demand stuff and see if there was a second episode for this The Amazing Race Recap. I feel like they are basically burning the episodes off, which sucks because this is a great show. So much better than Bravo. And you might even learn something. And there is no Covid!
Everyone is is likeable at this point. And the final five alliance has become a final three. Team Purple, Hung and Chee and The Beards are still together.
I’d be happy with pretty much anyone winning this season. Team Purple takes an early lead! YAY! The Indian brother sister team is in the back. But everyone is pretty close together. Oh not. The beards boat malfunctioned on the way to the temple. This is a huge problem. But, the guy finally got it working again. Hung and Chee take the lead in the temple challenge.
Fish Or Farm
On the detour, the teams must choose to fish or farm veggies. Fish seems like the more difficult thing as it requires using nets to catch over 30 pounds of tiny fish. On the other hand there may be billions of fish there, so who really knows? Actually, recreating a floating garden look complicated. I guess I would fish after all. Hung and Chee wanted to fish but their boat driver took them to the farming challenges so they are going to do it since they are there. Team Purple choose the gardening place. The other teams choose fish. It seems that gardening is much harder than fishing.

Beards head out next. And it is a double U-turn. There is not another non-elimination leg. Oh no! The footballers U- Turn the brother and sister team. I’m worried about Team Purple. The Beards just burned their U-Turn on Deanglo and Gary to keep their other two teams safe. The brother sister team is the only team to be U-Turned and they are pissed.
Making Floor Tiles
Next the teams have to make a floor tile using a very intricate process. Then they will get a key to a chest with more tiles that they have to arrange and make a giant sort of mosaic out of the tiles. The guys really suck at the tiles. The brother sister team still has a shot. They zipped through the garden. And all three teams are stuck at the tile challenge. Team Beard gets their tile first. Will from Team Purple gets his next. They quickly solve their puzzle and head for the pit stop. Team Beard comes in first and wins a trip for two to Norway. Team Purple is second. Everyone else is stuck at the tile challenge.

Chee gets his tile and off they go. Damn, then the footballers get their tile. Eswar gets his. The footballers Tuk Tuk left them! It’s a race to the finish! The footballers get caught up in construction on the way. But they make it to fourth place and sadly, Brother/Sister get eliminated. /sadface. It looks like it was there was only one episode this week. Can’t wait for next week!
I love this show! I can’t watch until the weekend but I still read the recaps so I know what happens ahead of time! Haha
Okay, I’m just gonna say it. I really hope the boyfriends don’t win. I don’t mind the blonde taller one, but the shorter one…..All he ever talks about is what teams he is trying to get rid of.
He’s nasty.
I loved the floating garden task.
And that NFL guy made tiles TWELVE times exactly the same way expecting a different result.
Sorry, but he was an idiot on that challenge. After a few tries, anyone with a brain would realize they were missing something and go back and watch again.
Oh well, I would never have the guts to do any of it!
He is not nasty. And he doesn’t talk about who to get out all the time and even if he did THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE GAME TO GET EVERYONE ELSE OUT! Everyone was trying to get rid of the FOOTBALLERS this time. EVERY OTHER TEAM.
Thanks for the recap, CBS is out in my area, due to the Direct TV and CBS feud.
I don’t have CBS either, they must be feuding with everybody. I have Dish Network
I did watch the episode online the next day. I love this show!
I am rooting for Gary & DeAngelo, thought I was gonna lose them when D didn’t pay attention on how to make the tiles.
I think the fatigue is setting in, b/c you are right, multiples of them didn’t bother watching every step of that tile making (I was FASCINATED by that. I miss my ceramics classes a lot right now!)
By the end we were cussing out the brother and sister – I quote my dad “Quit your bitching and HUSTLE” and “The blonde sisters were classier in their defeat, it is a GAME.”
It is going to be a good, tight finale for sure!!
It is CRAPPY that everyone reading your blog isn’t watching this show and commenting! So well put together. Each location and challenge is better than the last. Just totally lived Cambodia.
I try to get them to watch! I’ve found over the years that I am much more interested in other countries than my readers. And that’s okay. 90 Day The Other Way has dragged a few of them out of the country. My dad obviously lived with me in Libya and travel the world with us because Mama was the boss. lol. But He Hated traveling and once we were back home was much more resistant. I’m not sure how Mother got his to go with her to Hong Kong of all places (very long trip) but she did and she shipped back a bit of furniture even. It makes not sense. He must have done something BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD. lol.
My point is my readers are for the most part more like Dad, ” I like it right here in Georgia, I don’t have any desire to go anywhere else.” It was and still is hard for me to wrap my mind around. Especially when you can do it from the couch. Bravo shows like Tour Group (DIDN’T EVEN GET TO SEE HOW IT ENDED!) and Ladies of London and even the overseas housewives shows just don’t go well with this viewship. 🙁
