Charla & Mirna - Little person and her cousin from season 5. Rob & Amber - From "Survivor" and season 7, their occupations are now listed as "TV personalities" ... Teri & Ian - Season 3, the oldest couple to finish the race (they came in 2nd). Eric & Danielle - Met during season 9 while racing with other people. Joe & Bill - "Team Guido" form season 1. Dustin & Kandice - Former beauty queens from season 10. I haven't watched the show since the one before the "family" edition, but I just may tune in this time. A lot of favorites from past seasons are on, and I don't think the familiarity with the contestants will be as much of an issue as with the all-star seasons of "Survivor" and "Big Brother". Starts Sunday, Feb 18.

To fill in more info on Eric and Danielle... Eric was teamed with Jeremy and had the lead over BJ & Tyler only to see BJ pass him in the final road block -- "place the flags in order". Danielle was teamed with Danni (and thus they were called "Team Double D") in season 9 and finished 7th.

Ozzy & Danny - "It's a Mercedes!" These 2 are likeable, I wouldn't share a tear of these 2 committed to each other people win. They'll be fun to watch and cheer for. John Vito & Jill - It's sad what happened to Jill, they're good racers, not my favourite team, but if they win, I hope they split it 50/50. Uchenna & Joyce - I think this couple has lots of heart, especially seeing them at the orphanage. The only reason I don't want them to win, is well they already won, I'd like to spread the money. I'm not against them winning, and will not cheer against them though. David & Mary - Byron these guys their accents are funny. They weren't my favourite team, I hope they do well, but there's just something about them that didn't click 100% with me. Charla & Mirna - I want Charla to win, I want Mirna to go away. Charla is a role model person, he passion is just exceptional. Rob & Amber - I guess they're villains, (Of course Mirna can fall under that). Rob & Amber you've had your 30 minutes of fame, over and over and over. Not bad people, not my type either. Teri & Ian - Please no paper underoo's! You guys race well, It'll be interesting to see how you do, but spoilers say you two don't win. Eric & Danielle - They're young and they have some Mojo. Joe & Bill - Another villain team I guess. I hope they don't fall behind like they did at the end of the last race. At least they seem to genuinely enjoy the race. But the homes one of them sells are just overpriced Dustin & Kandice - Again not a team I won't hate, near the end of their race I was cheering for them. Don't crash a car please!

Ozzy & Danny - They used a shmoozing strategy in their race... and it worked quite well for them. Another nice guy team that "deserve" to win. John Vito & Jill - No real opinion about them, but they were competent racers. Uchenna & Joyce - I'm with Mark on this one: they already won, so I'm not rooting for them particularly. David & Mary - As i already said, i don't think they were good racers. I don't even think they should be one of the teams. Charla & Mirna - These two just kinda rubbed me the wrong way for some reason. I'd rather see them eliminated earlier than later. Rob & Amber - I think Rob is a pretty clever fellow. I don't agree with everything he did, but he'll do just about anything to win. I like that. Teri & Ian - Well, it's good to have an older couple in the race, and these two were very competitive. I didn't like Ian though. Eric & Danielle - Hard to say what I think about this team, since they weren't a team before They're young and strong. Not so sure about their other abilities. Joe & Bill - The prototype villians for all other seasons to follow. I was happy to see them fall way behind in the final leg of season one. I'll be curious to see how they tackle another race. Dustin & Kandice - I'll be rooting for the BQ's again. Hehe.

Originally Posted By fundog58 Just two people's opinion, but my wife and I decided that we just were not interested in seeing Rob and Amber on yet another reality show. Unless they're eliminated early, I guess we won't be watching this season.
Originally Posted By Rsey103 I was distracted by Mary's t-shirt with the missing children poster on it. I thought, "The show was filmed Nov/Dec last year....are the children still missing??

(BTW, if I'm not mistaken this is the week that David/Mary and the Cho's are to be on the cruise with Rosie O'Donnell.) I didn't care for the way Rob and Amber gave the cold shoulder to my coal miners when they introduced themselves to them. It wouldn't have cost Rob and Amber anything to say a kind word. Rob. Amber. There wouldn't be a race for you to win without those other teams...... Was very surprised to see John Vito and his girlfriend eliminated. Thought they'd go all the way.....
Originally Posted By chickendumpling Am I the only one watching anymore? LOL. Mirna and Schmirna have *got* to go. Ugh. I feel kinda sorry for them though, especially this episode they are *completely* breaking down.

Originally Posted By velo Well, that was a surprise! Karma's a bummer! I think that's what finally caught up to R & A. I'm rooting for Oswald & Danny.
Originally Posted By califtink I'm not sure I quite realized how much I actually liked Rob and Amber - as far as the show goes - until I felt my disappointment at the end of last night's program. I can't help it - I was just like "Oh, nooooo!! It won't be nearly as much fun to watch (for me) with them gone!!". I truly believe that. Bummer.
