I only started watching TAR 6, so I don't know how it compares. My SIL says that this season is not as funny as previous seasons, but I think this one has been more entertaining than last season.
Kelly's POW comment was dumb, but not as horrible as I thought it might be. She is sad that Ron doesn't want to get married it appears. I thought Ron handled it quite well, and he really was quite nice to her the rest of the race. I think they both realize they are going to break up, but are hanging in to finish the race, and I admire them for that. I know lots of people probably hate Kelly, though. Ron seems like a pretty unflappable guy. They are not dumb either, even though, I think the show has portrayed them that way a bit.
I was glad they won a prize, but who will they take the trips with! ;-)
I was starting to like Rob and Amber, but he really caused his own problems with his playing around. I'm not liking them so much anymore.
I love Joyce and Uchenna! They are very kind to everyone and to each other. I am pulling for them. Ron and Kelly would be my 2nd choice to win, however there are times when I want to pull both of them aside and tell them to be nice. They are nice to everyone but each other. They antogonize each other.
