Of course, once the show starts, that can always change. According to E! on-line, "among the hot spots the teams are set to touch down on: Brazil, Bolivia, Russia, India, a first-ever stop in Cambodia and, for the sake of cultural learnings making benefit the glorious competitors, Kazakhstan." <a href="http://tinyurl.com/6g8nxy" target="_blank">http://tinyurl.com/6g8nxy</a> According to an AP article, the series was NOT shot in HD.

Maybe it's the travelogue part of the show, and maybe it's the fact that competitors are teamed up as couples. Whatever it is, it's a winning combination. I'm already juiced for this next season.

Sounds like an interesting group of folks though! I am glad to see you doing this again though seanyoda. It's one of the LP traditions I really enjoy.

Originally Posted By chickendumpling No way, man! I like the Geeks! They quoted Yoda! LOL. I wouldn't be sad to see that crybaby Terrence go but I don't think that's gonna happen tonight.
Originally Posted By chickendumpling LOL, villians! We were just laughing about that. I feel kinda mean for laughing but that was pretty bad.

Originally Posted By gottaluvdavillains AND NOW THEY let their taxi go!!! I think they should have let the frat boys win it - since the Yoda guy gave her the hint on how to get the roadblock done!!
Originally Posted By gottaluvdavillains THey don't have to be blonde... I was being nice and not refering to their not so big tata wearing white t-shirt ding bats... LOL!!
