Amazing Race 7 Finale

[lip1978]

I know we have a huge thread, but this one needed a poll.

Who's going to win? Did you read the spoiler?
Guess what's going to happen!

What Spoiler are you talking about?

PS - i voted for rob and amber. If they do win, I would crown them the champions of reality TV.

There was a news story earlier this season that a large amount of money was bet on one of the remaining teams.

Not gonna comment on any team because I read the stupid spoiler that appeared in the AR thread. Pretty much 1 of 2 things will happen tonight: a) all the excitement will pretty much be gone because the spoiler rings true or b) fun surprise ending because the spoiler was wrong. Not counting on the latter but ah well, I'll reserve a little bit of hope :cool:

[Carnage]

Damn spoiler. People should really put giant warnings on that kind of stuff. :evil:

isn't there still one non-elimination leg remaining?

I haven't seen the spoiler, but my pick since day 1 has been Rob and Amber. Every show, it's "What's Rob gonna say or do to get ahead?" The man is sly. If Ron and Kelly could ever get their act together and put their personal crap aside, they would be a more serious threat. All that bickering isn't helping anything. I like Uchenna and Joyce. They are solid, and have demonstrated strong competitiveness. We'll see what happens tonight.

I found out about the spoiler, I hope it isn't true though.

As far as the amazing race goes, I am a little tired of it to be honest. I remember in the first season, the team that won crossed the finish line while another team reached a checkpoint BACK ON THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA!

Now that is an actual race; one where you can get ahead and not get stuck in these stupid areas where everybody bunches together (like waiting overnight for something to open, or everybody waiting for 8 hours to catch a plane/train/bus). I know from a drama perspective it's better when everyone is running like crazy, and there are close finishes, but from a 'reality' perspective I would prefer that the creators have less involvement in determining how the race plays out.

I think they've used them already. But if they haven't the last one will be tonight.

Tongights episode is the finale, and is 2 hours long.

I've not read that big thread for two weeks now. The moment I read the word spoiler and some people saying that they've seen it, I stopped reading that very instant. Glad I did'nt read more.

So the team I'm rooting for? Uchenna and Joyce. But will they win? I'm not sure. They don't seem to be on top of things and they're not running a tight game. If they win, IMO it'll come down to luck, cuz Romber is running a tight game right from the start.

Saw the spoiler too. >:(

We'll see tonight.

Managed to avoid the spoiler, hoping Rob and Amber win, they've been the best team by far all season, think they might even hold the record for most 1st place finishes ever...

Don't think so...if I recall correctly, Kris+Jon and/or Colin+Christie (from last race and the race before that respectively) had more. Or at least equal.

EDIT: Just looked it up. Kris/Jon only had 4 first place finishes (I thought of them because they never finished worse than fourth the entire race). Colin/Christie ended up with 6 first places. Romber sit at 4 right now, so they'd have to win the next leg and the race itself to equal that :cool:

ah true, that leg that they were in first, but then Phil gave them the "Dr. Evil Eyebrows" in, screwed them out of a 1st place finish. I mistakenly added that one. Thanks.

Honestly, I hope U/J don't win, I can't see how they'd deserve it, been pretty middle of the road the entire show. Plus Joyce gives me the "Gollum" from Lotr vibe too much...
As for R/K....they are just a complete mess. I've seen more loving relations on Springer.
