Anyone watching?

I usually watch the next day. I can't do Survivor and AR in one night.

We got some real "peaches" this year.

These two...

I am watching and I am really enjoying this season more than the last 2-3 ones. The show feels energized. And agree, I love the all express pass. Glad to see the above couple survive the u-turn. They are by far the strongest in the field and I think it was either last season or the season before when the u-turn eliminated the strongest team.

Enjoy this show. Actually liked it better with 60 minute episodes.

Loved the Old Guy with his Grandson.

Enjoying the season. That couple is crushing it. Agree that I liked these better at 1 hour; they fill 30 minutes by just stretching out the editing per challenge and many get tiresome.

The express pass for everyone was an interesting twist. That said, I thought all the hype for the "first mother/daughter ever to win a leg!" was kind of silly given they used their freebie pass to win it.

Pop and the kid were a navigational disaster but fun to watch. I was surprised they lasted as long as they did given they could never figure out where they were going, but they were good at calmly and methodically taking on the challenges - when they found them. Pop is a beast at 72. There were times when they were running in the heat with those massive backpacks where I was worried he might drop.

Total BS. Double U turn and a last event where everyone could very easily collaborate to knock them out, even if they had already fully caught up. What a terrible episode. Clear the producers didn't want them kicking everyone's ass all season long so instead of a thumb on the scale, they put the whole hand to oust them.

If they were kicking ass like they had been they would not have been in the position to be U-Turned. They would have likely beaten the father/daughter team IMO without the U-Turn but they ran a very poor leg with or without it.

True, but stacking uturns is kind of bs and the two challenges that followed in this episode were weak where one was super easy and the 2nd would have allowed for the kind of collaboration that could easily knocked them out even if they ran a clean leg. But yes, if you are not first to everything along the way, you are at risk
