Weedy_Speedy Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 (edited) Cindy & Rick Season 27 So this team (who I keep confusing with Ernie & Cindy, which made me excited when I saw Amanda's "get in here so we can move along" post, but alas) are a team from season 27. In the first leg, the Race decided to immediately provide us with fanservice of all the teams in bathing suits at the beach. Cindy agreed with myself in the assertion that the white short shorts didn't suit Rick. Other than that, they were basically afterthoughts throughout the race, as modern TAR is edited so that if you're not relevant to a season's overarching storyline, we're not supposed to care. So yeah, sucks for them that their standard airtime was sacrificed so we can see more of Justin being a cocky douche and/or Justin being a crybaby. They evidently had a baby at some point according to Google Images, so good for them.

Weedy_Speedy Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Brandon & Nicole Season 5 TAR5 is a top-tier season but I honestly don't care about these two so they can go now. Really the only blight spot of that top 6, their shtick was that they were models and huge Christians. Other than that, they were boring, to the extent that the show's editors would go out of their way to take the piss out of them. The example that immediately springs to mind was when they were having trouble getting a flight in an early leg, only for the camera to pan over to a group of NUNS descending the escalator right before they found their flight lmao. Anyway, their other "high points" I guess were Nicole completely failing at the caviar-eating roadblock, and their decision not to go for the head-shaving Fast Forward because they didn't want to cut *his* hair. Unfortunately, that was a rare consecutive NEL leg, so they survived into the final three when we could've had more Kami & Karli shenanigans in the top 4. What could have been! Le sigh. UPDATE: On rewatch I also came to realize that they're super problematic! So on leg 7, teams are instructed to fly to Kenya before signing up for one of three charter flights to Tanzania. Upon arrival there, they had to ride a bus to the Detour destination. Well Brandon & Nicole (along with Kami & Karli) were on the second charter flight, and they boarded a mostly-empty bus. Paranoid about Charla & Mirna and Linda & Karen catching up with them, Brandon & Nicole decide to bitch at the bus driver to completely shortcharge himself against taking extra passengers. Yeah I know it's a race but this is kind of what the dude does to earn his living, jack*ss. They promise to pay him $100 to go and the guy decides to do it. But turns out that, once the driver decided to ask Brandon for his money during the ride, he didn't want to pay him because "I don't know if you're a trustworthy man." It reaches a head once they get to the destination and the bus driver, understandably pissed the f*ck off, asks for the rest of his money but these privileged "god-fearing" asswipes won't pay him the money they promised because they felt unsafe/that the dude was dangerous. I don't know how such a display of OPEN RACISM managed to fly under people's radar, but hopefully for whomever reads this revised write-up, Brandon & Nicole will also go from "boringly competent third placers" to "cancelled dickwads". It's pretty funny too, because my roommate was watching one of the early episodes with me, and he looked up Brandon on FB and told me "he looks like a white supremacist." Lo and behold--he's absolutely right. Save Kelly & Jon. I don't understand the Reichen & Chip fascination lmao, I mean they were gay but they were also assh*les (like everyone else that season). Kelly & Jon were at least fun/entertaining assh*les! Edited April 26, 2021 by Weedy_Speedy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven_ Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 MATT & REDMOND The Amazing Race 29 paired up strangers to race together. Matt had the second pick, and he chose Redmond. Matt was a professional snowboarder and Redmond was an Iraqi veteran with a prosthetic leg. They were the only all-male team on the race this season, and they ended up becoming strong competitors. They came in first place twice, second place four times, third place twice, and fourth place twice before their final leg. Unfortunately for them, they got lost in Seoul in Leg 11. They fell way too far behind, but they did manage to somewhat catch up. However, it was not enough after Tara finally completed the Roadblock in time to reach the Pit Stop with Joey before Matt & Redmond did. Despite being a dominant team throughout the season, Matt & Redmond missed out on the final leg to race for the million dollars. Matt & Redmond were very competitive, and some fans were bothered by Redmond's behavior at times (especially after Vance & Ashton U-Turned him and Matt). But Matt & Redmond got along great, and they were pretty strong racers. Sorry to any fans for this cut, but out they go from the rankdown. Saving Flo & Zach.

QueenKalie Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Matt & Ashley Matt & Ashley are just whatever so I don't mind cutting them here. They were a dating couple of season 26 of the amazing race. Season 26 composed of blind date teams and real couples. Matt & Ashley were a real couple and I am pretty sure they got engaged while on the race. I don't know if they are married yet or what has happened to them since I never bothered to check up on them but whatever. I don't dislike this team but they are far from favorites so it's whatever I guess. They did pretty well on the season finishing in 5th place and they did win 1 leg of the race so good for them on that. They were an easier cut from this group of nominations so out they go from this rankdown now. Saving Jess & Cody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
