The Amazing Race (1/11) **SPOILER WARNING**
What a great episode. I almost fell off the couch laughing at Hellboy in the diving suit. That was something straight out of a Jerry Lewis movie. (Although my wife informs me that this actually happened in a Sylvester and Tweety cartoon.)

Kris and Jon gave me a scare there for a second with the plane reservation, but I should have known they'd come through. Isn't it amazing how they were able to accomplish a lot more in the airport with simple sweetness, a calm demeanor, and the word "please" than all the other teams have ever been able to accomplish with shrieking and general assholishness? Let that be a lesson, children.

1. Why oh why can't we get rid of Jonathan and Victoria?
Not only does he piss me off with the way he treats his wife, but I am sick and tired of her whining, "we're gonna lose" in that voice that just grates on my nerves. It was so funny to see Jonathan trying to make 5 bottles of juice and get passed by everyone on the last bottle. He couldn't blame that one on her.

Aaron and Hayden are not one of my favorite couples and I would have been glad to see them go. Why is it always a non-elimination week when a team I don't like comes in last and an elimination week when a team I do like (Gus/Hera) comes in last?

3. I couldn't believe he rode in the raft...
I just assumed he was going to make Victoria do that.

Could they possibly yell at each other a little more?

4. Yep, good episode
Right now I have three couples I like (Kris/Jon, Hellboy/Rebecca, Lori/Bolo) and three I HATE (Jonathan/Victoria, Freddy/Kendra, Hayden/Aaron).

And I second whoever said that it always seems that when a pair I hate finishes last, it's a non-elimination.

6. I'm with you
The thing is, I only hate Hayden. I really like Aaron, he is cute and seems like a fun guy and he totally deserves a better girlfriend than that useless shrew he's saddled himself with.

I love the fact that he calls her on her bullshit, though. Why oh why can't he drop her mid-race for another partner? Like, I dunno, Hera? :P
