Great recap! And that mongol did look like Jeff Probst; nice call on that! I just can't wait to see if the Fat Frats get their shoes back or if they have to run the rest of the race in the rubber boots from the cow costume. Just one more thing for Napoleon to bitch about.

Favorite caption: "Which way do we go?!" "Kenny stop it!" "Don't Push!" "Stop cheating on me!" "Waaaah!"

LOL!

I don't know if I'm just stupid or ignorant or what, but I was totally not expecting the people in Kazakhstan to be well...Asian. I thought they'd be more Middle Eastern-looking. But apparently not. The more you know :).

Anywho, it also rankles me to no end when people don't READ THE FRIGGIN CLUE!!! The instructions are right in front of them. I don't understand why they do things that they are either clearly told not to do (do not take cabs, go on FOOT) or do things that they aren't told to do (i.e. go ALL the way back to the costume place and give their cow costume back).

I've paused on the instructions before and they are extremely clear about what you are to do and what you are not to do. They should give a reading comprehension skills test before letting these people loose on the world.

Dear bBitz,
Your recaps are very funny, and give me great enjoyment. I just can't figure out why they are so short though. I got hooked on the recaps a while ago, because you get the to have fun twice - once watching all those idiots do the moronic things on TV, second while reading and re-living the show with all its ups and downs. Because your recaps are so short, you skip a lot of stuff that happens in-between, and make things sound as if they just 'happened' while in fact it took at team several hilarious attempts before they finally got it right. I love those recaps where all the actions are being shed light on, and ridiculed - that is why I read them. I just can't figure out which is the egg and which the chicken in this case: are the recaps so short because you do not care to summarize all the events, no matter how humorous they might be, or do you just not want to write a lot ,and that's why you omit a lot of situations. Either way, it is really sad FOR ME and probably for a lot of other readers. If at all possible, please think about extending your otherwise excellent narrative - we enjoy it immensely, don't be a scrooge.

Awesome recap! I laughed my ass off at the Babe-as-a-mouse-in-pocket reference! Brilliant!

Toni and Dallas all the way! I wouldn't mind terribly if Tina and Ken won, either...it would be very "Amazing Race" for those two to win...This show likes a "turnaround" relationship story.

Thanks again for the great recap! I especially love the captions!

Noooooo!! Not Terence!!! That man is pure comedy gold!!

I think your recaps are just the right length. If you touched on everything that happened, you would probably have ten pages, and personally, I wouldn't sit and read all of it. You hit the highlights and that's all you need to do. Besides, if you watch the show, do you really need to come and read about EVERYTHING that happened? You should already know....

Great recap - and the length is fine for me.

It does seem like this is a matter of which team screws up the least. The frat boys seem by far to be the most likely to leave next. Too bad, since they are such good will imbeciles.

I'm hoping that Toni and Dallas come out first in the final leg of the race. They seem like such fine people.

I wondered about the frat boys' shoes, too. The show kept making a point of it, but then didn't give us a resolution. I'm guessing it at least costs them a penalty on the next leg.

Crappers! fire@will you just reminded me about the shoes! I was saving it til the end of the recap where I was gonna have a photo of them with the caption "But what ever happened to the shoes?! This is the oddest sweeps move ever. Shoes! Stay tuned! Dun dun dunnnnnnn!"

Did anyone else want to punch Nick right in the face at the pit stop? When Phil announced they were the first team to arrive, Nick said "Phil, you're starting to sound like a broken record". God, he irks me!! It might behoove him to keep his frigging mouth shut!! So glad that Terrence is gone!! And I wish he took Nick with him. Please, please somebody else win this race. Anyone other than Nick and Star!!!!

bBitz, your recaps are awesome! I don't remember how many times I laughed out out. You're on your way to the tvgasm hall of fame! I love the idea that Tina thinks the Kazakhstanis walk around the city in cow costumes.

Hate to see Terence go. He added some pathetic-ness to the show. Who will carry that torch now?

I really don't have a problem with Nick. If he and Starr win I'm down with that (but I like Dallas and Toni and Kenny and Tina too). Even the fat frats are okay in my book. All these people seem like decent, good people. None of them seem VILE to me.

Good recap. While I always think bigger is better -- your length (recap-wise) is fine with me.

I'm fine with the recap length. I'm thankful we get one and not the day before the next episode at that..!

I like recaps that highlight all of the noteable (especially snarkable) events, but I don't need a play by play of it all. Just enough to make me remember what happened and enjoy discussing the episode again.

Dallas was having entirely too much fun as the cow. It was great to see that. Moooo!

Sarah- PLEASE watch the show and RUN girl, RUUUUUN! Get yerself away from that wussyman! I was hoping they'd stick around, just because they are so much fun to make fun of. That and I am sick of Crybaby Dan.

Hmmm.... I really surprised more people aren't on Team Nick & Starr. They are sweet, kind, athletic, smart, efficient and damn cute! And they work together better than any team I've ever seen on Amazing Race. Is it jealousy? Cause I would understand that.

But really, bashing Nick for trying to make a joke with Phil? He didn't sound at all arrogant, just cute.

I don't think I've ever seen a team that deserved to win more, based on gameplay. Perhaps they are just a little boring, because everything goes so smoothly with them.

Okay, is tigercub Nick or Nick's mother? Fess up.

My stab at a caption...

"Blech! This 'milk' tastes like oysters and pennies!"

love, J-Mo :)

Caption:

"Shoot! Did the clue say to spit or swallow?!"

dani2526....

Damn that was funny!

Hehe... ok, I guess that was a little gushy... but hey, he's adorable!

Completely agree with you tigercub...Nick and Starr were my favourite team from the start. Toni and Dallas were a close second near the end and I was so sad to see them go; considering that the fat frats made it to the final three
Nick and Starr FTW!!
Whats up with the recaps Bblitz?? the finale's this sunday and the last two recaps are MIA!
