We're still watching. It's just been rather predictable. At this point, I'd actually like to see Hayley and Blair win, even with her nagging. The funny part is, she's mostly right and he just chooses to ignore her. But, how helpful was it that he could speak Spanish?!

Hayley chooses the most annoying way to express this fact, but she is 100% correct. Easily the most mismatched of the 'blind date' couples but despite their obvious incapability they are a strong team. Would not be surprised in the least if the win the whole thing. Pulling for Rochelle & Mike and Tyler & Laura.

I could almost punch Haley at times. Blair handles her well. I don't really agree that she's usually right, she has been a few times, but mostly she just won't shut up. she's clueless about how she is.

But, they have found a way to work together and I almost hope they win for Blair's sake. He deserves it for putting up with that loon toon.

Just "alright"?

Even if he would only just pretend to listen to her it would cut down some of her constant harping. She is definitely loon. May God bless the man who eventually marries her with an over abundance of patience.

Some behind the scenes footage. I can't fathom what it must have been like to basically live with this person for 3 weeks. Blair has nothing short of a superhuman level of patience and ability to deal with difficult people. The fact that they are doing well in the race makes it all the more remarkable.

I agree. She isn't usually right ahead of time... she just knows that Blair was wrong after they realize they made a mistake. She doesn't proactively know what to do... she just knows what they have done was wrong. She has amazing hindsight to spot mistakes and harp on them to know end.

and I agree, she has no idea how she is... she thinks Blair is the problem.

Yep. She laughs it off when called out and thinks she's being cute. Amazing.

Wow. She's even worse in that clip. So hateful. Blair tries to speak to her logically, which makes it worse. I've made that mistake, buddy.

Jenny should be grateful that Hayley's on he show. She looks like Mother Teresa in comparison.

Agree. and I've noticed Jenny has actually gotten a little nicer the last few legs. Or they're editing her better.

I did not think that Team Truck Stop/ Roller Derby would have made it this far.

What's up with Blair acting completely civil and rational? That does not compute....

she did two episodes ago too, weird.

I'm sure the top three think they're in for sure, will be very interesting when all four teams show up. Also interesting that only one couples team still remains.

If I have to choose, I'd like Laura and Tyler to win. and Blair and Haley only for HIS sake for putting up with her.

In spite of Haley and the BSC, this is the first time in years that I don't have team in the final leg that I can't stand. I will be fine with whichever team wins.

Would this show ever be cancelled? I guess the same could be asked about Survivor too.

I like Survivor but Amazing Race is really sort of "timeless." I don't know how else to describe it. I wish they would stop with the gimmicky seasons, however.

I'm happy with who won. I thought Hailey/Blair had it in the bag, but she made the ultimate mistake that cost them everything. Funny how all three finalists were blind dates.

It's been renewed for season 27!!

I was pulling for Hailey and Blair, but Tyler and Laura were the better team in the final leg. I thought the elimination of Rochelle and Mike was rather expected and sort of blunt?? I guess I was expecting it to be more dramatic! Cool that it finished in Texas though!

How could you root for Hailey? Serious question.

I thought it was perfect that her ****up cost them the million bucks. Too bad for Blair though. He deserved the payday.

And she was still yelling at him to "listen to me" when they were going to the parking garage. He had no clue what she saw up there but wanted him to magically know where to go.

The contrast was interesting when he just calmly pointed out that those are just some red and yellow poles. She would have lost her **** with him.

I was rooting for Blair. He deserved it for what he went through with her. BUT, I'm totally cool with Laura and Tyler winning.

Blair and Haley even said they'd love to do it again. Don't be surprised if they show up on a future show. He really knew how to deal with her and didn't let her get to him. He managed her more than she realized.

Wife and I were yelling the same thing at the TV. Only she saw what she saw, yet she was yelling, "BLAIR we are a TEEEEEAM!! You need to listen to me and help me make this decision since we are a TEEEEEAM!!!".

Luckily, Blair was smart enough to recognize that what she was really trying to do was get him to say something that she could later scream at him about if things didn't work out. What an unbelievable b*tch she was.

It was perfect poetic justice how there was absolutely no way she could blame this one on Blair since she was up there all by herself. However, I was surprised that she didn't stat yelling that HE should have known to go up there instead of her or something.

While it didn't affect the outcome, I hate it when cab drivers running out of gas impact the race. I would have thought they would have them drive themselves in Dallas.

I'm surprised Tyler and Laura didn't hook up. It seemed like she might be interested in him but he didn't seem to be attracted to her which was kind of odd to me because she was a pretty cute girl and seemed to have the best personality of any of the girls on the show. She never went into beotch mode.

Had the same impression. She was definitely DTF. He did not seem interested.

Didn't Tyler say something about being in the "friend zone"? Maybe he was just really bad at reading her dtf signals?

I thought they kept showing the Hailey/Blair fights all season because THEY were going to end up hooking up at the end. That would have been crazy, and one of the strangest reality show twists ever.
