Maybe they had a detour scheduled, but decided to skip it due to the heat?

Non-Fiction TV: I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own
This thread is for non-fiction TV, including but not limited to reality television (So You Think You Can Dance, Top Chef: Masters, Project Runway), documentaries (The History Channel, The Discovery Channel), and sundry (Expedition Africa, Mythbusters), et al. [NAFDA]
No Roadblock! Weird!
Re: Team Red. I've never been to Thailand, but I have been to India, and I do really sympathize with the teams who find it hard to handle. India is the most overwhelming place I've ever been and I was there as a tourist traveling with my family (in-laws) who spoke fluent Hindi. The trick is simply not to be an asshole about it - the lack of personal bubbles and/or sense of urgency can be deeply stressful if you're not used to it, but that does not make it okay to yell at your cab driver!
ION, I miss having team nicknames.
You know, I'm done with sympathy. This is the fucking FOURTEENTH season of TAR. If you apply for TAR and are selected to go, you know you are likely to go to India because more often than not they go to India. Buck the fuck up and figure out how to handle it.
Yeah, overwhelmed is fine, asshole is not. Yelling at that Thai shopkeeper guy was not cool. Especially because, if you think about it for even a second, if he doesn't like you, he can slow you down! Or you can be cute and awesome like Mel and Mike, even when they knew they were losing.
ION, I caught about half of RuPaul's Drag Race over the weekend, and that shit was BRILLIANT. Blog post explicating same: [link] If nothing else, you've got to love a show where the real catchphrase (not mentioned in the blog post) is "Don't fuck it up."
It is time for you to LIP SYNCH FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
Sashay, away; shante, you stay.
It was all so awesome!!!!
Seriously.
