So, according to my TV Guide, they will continue racing in Prague this week and then they will head back to the U.S. for the finale.

I wonder who will be eliminated tomorrow? I like all four of the remaining teams though, so I will be happy no matter what. I really do hope Sam and Dan win, or at least not get eliminated tomorrow. Somebody has a speed bump to contend with tomorrow, but I forget who it was.

But I'm positive it wasn't Sam and Dan.

Its Brian & Erica. Cos of their mistake about getting the tram into Prague (as they had been told it would be faster, but it wasn't), they came in last.

The previews indicate that one of the teams quits the roadblock cos they just can't do it, and so get a 4 hr penalty. I'm willing to be money they go out as a result. Even with Brian & Erica's speedbump & being a bit behing anyway, they're not going to be 4 hours behind....

I think it'll be exciting semi final!

Oh and as an aside.. TAR 16 started TODAY! The spoiler folk at reality fan forum have already have photos of 90% of the teams at the airport.. they is another well known team on it.. more well known than the poker girls this season...  I don't know them... but then I'm not up on American pop culture.

There is also a team we should all really like.. for reasons that will become obvious when the show airs! Again this team will be well known in certain circles... like th poker girls...

Wont say any more but if you're interested click on this link... http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,21190.100.html .. but it contains SPOILERS!

I can't belive they made Brian & Erica drink absinth for the speed bump - that stuff is like having about 6 shots! Then they had to do that hard roadblock, balance stuff and go in the cold! Drunk!!!

I loved the drunk actors but loved the real drunks even more - hahahahah! did you hear someone slagging off Erika? Saying.. look at taht real american attitude ... and she was like DAMN STRAIGHT! GET OUTTA MY WAY!! Hah!

I also cannot believe Big Easy couldn't do the roadblock... what the hell? Write down the options and do them all in tun its not hard.. especially since he had the first letter - 24 options would have taken LESS thatn  hours. I have to say I dont blame Dan for not telling Big Easy.. he had worked with him straight away when he had got there first, and told him which ones were wrong beforehand just as big easy had. And he gvae him the first letter. Its not like he left him totoally high and dry.

And I dont believe Big Easy wouldn' have done the same thing.. remember the Mika incident? He knows how to play the game. 

Looks like an exciting finale!!

I was totally bummed that Big Easy (1) couldn't see the forest for the trees (wasn't he the one who couldn't figure out 8:35?) and (2) gave up before trying all the options.  They were my favorites, so the finale is kind of ruined for me.  I guess I'm for the blonde couple.  They deserve it, having worked extremely efficiently together all along.  Sorry, Sam and Dan fans, I just don't like them (spoiled brats), and Bryan and Ericka are just lucky to be in the top three what with all the mistakes they've made.  :(

Yup, as soon as I saw the task, I knew it must be big easy who took the 4 hour penalty. After that whole 8.35 thing in Dubai.

I quite like Sam (the older (& cuter IMO) of the 2.. the shorter one) an Dan is okay but a bit of a whiner.

Id be happy with any of them winning.

Im just watching the extras on the CBS youtube channel.. and here is one I found funny given the problems BE (and Dan) had...

Quote
After the Roadblock, it takes Sam all of ten seconds to solve what took his brother much, much longer



Sam is like ...." it was Franz right?"

 Heee

I will miss the Globetrotters.... but I'm still cheering for Dan and Sam...

That 4 hour penalty was a big shame though... I wish that hadn't happened. :(

my view is if he couldn't bloody work it out its his bloody own fault.. and deserves the 4hours!  :P

I think Killer fatigue may have been in play here but c'mon Brian got it on his like second try and he was DRUNK!!

And Sam got it without instructions in about ten seconds in the taxi on the way out of the roadblock when Dan was trying to explain how hard it was!

very very close game.. they were all getting checked to get basically the last clue all at the same time.. I really had visions of a foot race!

M&C thoroughly deserved the win... but dang it would have been nice to see B&E win too!

Bryan was the only one to get the monte carlo.. which I thught was fairly obvious...

Thought Sam was brill on the wall - really going for it and fun too!
