It’s the twelfth and final leg, and it sends teams to Las Vegas. And oh, surprise! Brendon and Rachel live in Las Vegas. Of course they do, because it’s the tackiest place on earth. The Howells leave first at 4:31 a.m., followed by My Family Is Famous a few minutes later. When Brendon and Rachel rip open their envelope, the squeeling can be heard all the way across the pond.

The Amazing Race, Ep. 10: Bull Down
This week on The Amazing Race: The Howells leave Zurich and head for Seville with four teams hot on their heels and a U-Turn ahead. The plan is to U-Turn Brendon and Rachel, but that plan has gone awry in the past so who knows. Continue reading

On this week’s episode of The Amazing Race Brendon and Rachel depart first at 6:13 a.m. and are headed to Switzerland. As they jog away from the pit stop, they try to justify U-Turning the Howells, which, according to everyone else, is unjustifiable. “Who would U-Turn Dave and Conner? They’re cancer survivors, they’re the sweetest people in the whole world, I mean while we’re in Italy they were canonized for crying out loud.” Continue reading

The seventh leg of The Amazing Race begins in Sri Lanka with the Cousins departing at 2:41 p.m. for the “eternal city,” which they must figure out is Rome, Italy.

The Amazing Race Season Finale
OMG, it’s the final episode of The Amazing Race and I almost care who wins! After a season filled with lying, yelling, crying, and a little bit of running, one of the teams is going to be a million dollars richer. And I’ll be mildly annoyed if it’s not the Doctors, even though they barely have a snowball’s chance in hell (don’t they just seem perpetually jetlagged?). Continue reading
