OOPS, season 7 will be represented.

Amazing Race 7 winners Joyce and Uchenna, who beat Rob and Amber. Sadly, the Weavers apparently won’t be showing up to give us another season of maddeningly fun hypocrisy. That’s because “[m]ost editions of the ‘Race’ are expected to be represented on the all-star edition, save for the much-panned family edition.”

Sorry for the double post. Joyce & Uchenna will be back to face Rob & Amber once more, plus many other teams.

Maybe Juchenna will miss the plane for real next time. Go Romber!

Speaking of planes, like this last version of TAR where "son of a gun", two teams managed to get on the same flight to New York. What were the odds of that happening? I'd say it was a sure thing since if "only" one team made it, there would be no drama at the end.

The dudes got help...no doubt about it.

Another "Juchenna" moment.

Okay, I’ve done a bit of snooping around Survivor Sucks and Reality Blurred and these are some of the teams racing. Highlight below if you are interested. It won’t give anything away with regards to who has been eliminated. It was not easy to find this out without getting spoiled about the rest of the season.

Romber (TAR 7)
Uchenna/Joyce (TAR 7)
David/Mary (TAR 10)
Barbies (Dustin/Candice, TAR 10)
Charla/Mirna (TAR 5)
Eric (1/2 Frat boys) and Danielle (1/2 Double Ds), both of TAR 9, who are supposedly dating now
Danny/Oswald (I don't know them, didn't watch TAR 2)


Most likely not racing:
Jonathon/Victoria - she just had a baby and they just opened a new business (TAR 6)
Reichen/Lance or Reichen/Chip - Reichen's not dating either now and he's also on his book tour (vomit)(TAR 4)
Chip/Kim - and very bitter about it, but could be lying (TAR 5)
Tyler/BJ - ditto the bitterness (TAR 9)

There are other rumors and names I don't know because I didn't see the earlier seasons

Thanks :) I'm happy to see those two TAR 10 teams returning. And very happy to see those bitter teams NOT returning--especially the last one you listed.

I'd like details, please. (Don't know what you mean by "highlight"? There are only two lines in your post.)

If my memory is clear, the last two on the top section were good at using resources at Hotels to get help and information. They finished 4th.

If those are the choices I say a footrace between Romber and the Barbies at the end.... Barbies win it.

Danny and Oswald were out for the trip. They spend too much time sightseeing...not that there's anything wrong with that.

Were they the ones who went shopping with some of their race money?

During the Hong Kong leg, they did some shopping. By using the Concierge to arrange their air travel for the next leg, they got a free ride to the airport in a Mercedes which saved them cab fare.

That's pretty funny.

It makes me think of a new rule that I'd like to see put into place. We'll call it the Romber rule - no taking locals with you to get you places or help you with challenges. You can use a concierge to help arrange travel, pay a taxi to lead you somewhere, etc., but no more kidnapping locals.
