Yeah, on reflection, I guess that makes sense.
I didn't like that bit (re: the girls, stiffing the driver) but I was glad that they negotiated for free upfront with the other bit.
The stuntmen did also negotiate in advance at that point, and now that I think about it, at the mat they said something along the lines of "we had to take care of the people" kinda deal, so I think they probably were aware of it at the time and just decided to violate it so that they'd be giving the drivers at least something of value.
I swear I'm starting to miss the days when people got behind because they wouldn't cut their hair or because their ox was broken over
leaving a challenge without your passport or your shoes.
I'm sorry, I just can't get past the shoe thing. How on earth do you not go "hang on, I just gotta grab my shoes"? And then you go back to your bag for your shoes and you have time to think "hey, I wonder maybe should we just bring all this stuff along, since I'm right here and all?" and presto! problem solved.
because their ox was broken
That will NEVER not be funny.
"hang on, I just gotta grab my shoes"?
Well, they weren't the first team to leave their shoes behind. Wasn't it just last season with frat dudes and the cow costume?
That will NEVER not be funny.
Miss Alli's recap of that ep has got to be the funniest thing I've read on TWOP, and in the top ten things I've ever seen in the internet.
Wasn't it just last season with frat dudes and the cow costume?
Even they weren't
barefoot
though.
Phil blogs last night's ep!
I love the Detour in this episode. Margie was amazing. And as she said, being a nurse really helped her in finding the right piece for the perfect smile. I actually felt quite sick when I was on location. I definitely would have gone with the karaoke. I don't know how a dentist goes digging around in people's mouths. This was definitely Margie's leg. Obviously Luke was right there with her, but she was driving the team this week. From the propellers to the dentures, she had her A game on. By the way, all of us on the show thought the dentures were going to take quite a while to complete, but Margie flew through that challenge. She was reaching into the locals' mouths without hesitation. I would say she probably finished that in about 5 minutes. They were on a mission this week.
I'm currently watching the makeover episode of ANTM during the Caridee cycle. Fun drama.
Hah! I'm watching it too, Dana--I turned it on during the picking the models section and got so confused when both CariDee and Jaslene were in the top 21. I'd forgotten Jaslene got rejected and came back again another cycle.
I love the twins. Sniff.
I'm not sure anything beats whatever cycle it was that had Cassandra, the pageant chick who freaked out about getting her hair cut off.
