The Amazing Race is not a game, despite what its cast members and producers might insist. Its a race around the world, one that does not need to mimic others in order to reach the finish line.

Huh? A race is not a game? What? Huh

Reading it again, i have a problem with

Quote:

And Charla Faddouls presence on the cast also caused some concerns, at least initially. As a little person, the first reality show contestant not to be of average height, her inclusion on the show seemed like stunt casting at best and exploitation at worst.

AAAAAAAAHHHHH for the last time, THEY WERE ONE OF THE ONLY NON-RECRUITED TEAMS THAT SEASON. They actually applied unlike half the teams there, the real stunt casting was Alison. And at least they didn't go on to promote a stupid pizza place.

Oh, also!

The Amazing Race 5 also included pompous and verbally abusive Colin and his suffering girlfriend Christie, giving the series its first detestable villain.

Is it me or all writers of TAR articles are always prejudiced against Colin and Chrisite, Romber, Jonathan and Victoria and Flo? I thought that at least C/c and Romber have a pretty large fan base. Roll Eyes

I don't think Romber was that bad. They were great racers. They weren't trying to slow the other teams down, it was that the other teams were too focused on them. (Lynn and Alex!! lol)

This person doesn't even know what they're talking about.

But... the writers always seem to be more on the C/M side. Or at least they hate C/C! lol i don't get that, i always thought the fans were about even.

I just read the article and found it too be poorly written. I have an issue with him saying that Rob and Amber were more concerned about slowing the other teams down then furthering themselves in the race. That is not really true at all... But i suppose it depends on the interpreter...

I found a bunch of other poorly articulated points but I won't divulge into that right now

the writer presented several correct facts and after that he thought it would be okay to build these facts around an opinion he already had.

this writer thought he was representing us and our views in his article.

he definitely did not represent me.
