I don't know what their life is like when they aren't on tv though. Just sitting there in their big house counting their royalties maybe? They did seem slightly less anoying this season.. but I still didn't want them to win (would have thought they'd of gotten further though). Me?? Rooting for Oswald & Danny and of course Uchena & Joyce! woo hoo! =) (if team Guido wins I'm ok with that too as they are my unofficial 3rd pick).

No, I will not disclose who my favs are other than Rob and Amber so that there is no issue of spoiling it for everyone else. I think so far this has been a good season but I assume that we will see some dirty antics with the fastforwards ahead and the yields. I don't know if they are part of this season or not but if they are, it could get ugly! Mirna and Shmirna are my least favorites and I would love to see them go, they annoy me!
Originally Posted By hopemax When Dustin and Kandice checked in and Phil made the joke about pretty in pink or whatever it was, DH said, "I think Phil is more relaxed this time since everyone knows each other." And then when Oswald tried to hug Phil and ended up chasing around the lawn we said, "Yep, just a little more relaxed." I really love team Cha Cha Cha.
Originally Posted By chickendumpling <<when Oswald tried to hug Phil and ended up chasing around the lawn >> ROFL! *That* was tooo funny! I totally can't blame Phil though - those guys were COVERED in coal dust! lol. I was SO relieved that Uchenna and Joyce didn't get eliminated. I really like them. But I am routing for the Beauty Queens at this point I think. I mean Uchenna and Joyce have already won, and while I like all the teams ( EXCEPT mirna & shmirna. Ugh. lol) I think the BQs are pretty smart players and I hope that gets rewarded.

Why else would you announce what you're going to do? Did Papa Paolo ever announce his hugs? I wouldn't mind a second All-Stars race but make it harder. And aren't you glad they finally left South America? I want to see the world!
Originally Posted By Rebekah I'm missing Rob & Amber as they offset the annoyance factor of the Mirna group. Uchenna & Joyce have been my all-time favorite champions throughout the seasons but this year so far they've not been that entertaining to watch. Unfortunately I forgot to set for overage so I didn't get to see the last episode. But I don't really have a favorite for this season. No one has really captured my attention. Rebekah.
Originally Posted By califtink I like Uchenna and Joyce - but I personally feel it was wrong to include past winners in this All-Star race. I feel it should have been more of a second-chance race for non-winners from past seasons. I can't seem to decide yet who I want to root for!
Originally Posted By mrichmondj OK -- Are they trying to make me stop watching this show by having Mirna and Schmirna finish first again??!! I don't think I can take it much more.
Originally Posted By chickendumpling mrichmondj, you took the words RIGHT out of my mouth! Seriously. No offense to fans of theirs but boy oh boy they are SO not for me. What is with Mirna anyway? WHY does she put on that accent whenever she is dealing with people she wants to get something out of? What an obnoxious faker! I cannnot stand that! Has anybody else noticed that? Man, she grates on me! LOL.
Originally Posted By Lisann22 Especially when she get the friggin accent wrong, like last night when she was doing a bad latin accent while trying to be South African. I wanted to slug her. It's so offensive. Thanks Chickie, I figured everyone would roll their eyes at me for saying it.
Originally Posted By chickendumpling No problem, Lisa. I'm used to people rolling their eyes at me by now. And yes! Thank you for reminding me about her getting the accent wrong. Even my kids noticed and kept asking me why she was doing that! LOL. Not to get all WE up in here but when she did that she went from annoying to downright rude.
Originally Posted By Disneyland55 It bugs me so much when she uses those fake accents! Actually, both Mirna AND Charla do it. I get really irratated every time I hear it. I can't stand them! Am I the only one out there who is offended by the whole "Mirna and Shmirna" nickname? No offense to the many of you out there who like to call them this of course, and I don't expect that y'all will stop saying it. I just don't like it. Is it supposed to be like saying "small Mirna??" I don't like Charla very much at all, but I don't see any reason to refer to her as "Shmirna." I don't get it...
Originally Posted By chickendumpling It rhymes. Simple as that. I'm simple and have a pretty juvenile sense of humor sometimes. I can't help it. lol. It in NO way is calling her "small Mirna" or anything like that. Least not in my book. Frankly, that hadn't even crossed my mind until you said it! LOL. Sorry if I've been inadvertently offending you. I had no idea. (So, add "oblivious" to "simple, juvenile sense of humor"! LOL)
Originally Posted By velo I, too, have had it with the accents! We were just saying that - that we couldn't figure out what she was trying to accomplish with that affectation. I think I remember that their family is Eastern-European (?) and that some of them had accents (could be wrong) so maybe that's why she slips into doing that so easily.
Originally Posted By trekkeruss I believe they are Armenian. Honestly, I don't pay much attention to the accent they put on. I just get annoyed at their hysterics, but the last two episodes they've chilled out (or are getting a more favorable edit).
Originally Posted By mrichmondj Did anyone else find it humorous to watch Charla fall flat on her face in the knight outfit during the previews for next week's episode? I know it's bad, but I had to rewind and replay that a couple of times just to make me feel better about them finishing in first for the 2nd week in a row.
Originally Posted By avromark I just wish more teams would be like Cha Cha Cha and *enjoy* the race, there will only be 1 "winner" so why not enjoy the ride?
Originally Posted By LacyBelle I agree. It looks like a very stressful experience in the way most teams run the race. I just LOVED when Team Cha Cha Cha stopped for fruit on the way to a challenge. When discussing how Charla and Mirna might have beaten them to that challenge, the answer was, "They must not have stopped for fruit." Just matter of factly. LOL
