The Amazing Race 19: Don't Lay Down on me Now!
The race continues in Indonesia where a mechanical problem leaves one team sidelined. Meanwhile, a confusing road block at an 8th century Buddhist temple causes two rival duos to join forces to figure out the difficult mental challenge. EDIT: Running almost 35 minutes late due to football.

Looks like a 35 minute delay (at least in my market.)

I like that there is a banner on 60 minutes that says when TAR starts. Progress.

Cindy and Ernie spent six months before this race investing their time in studying culture, languages, and geography? Now that's what I call dedication. I don't think I would have the patience. Hopefully if they lose the race they won't say that it was such a waste of time.

As long as she's on, I think Cathi (cause of her voice) should be referred to as Kitty Forman

I really do love Road Blocks like this because it gets teams riled up and that's when breakdowns occur :D

Wow, that could be huge. She might not get it now, but it will help as the other teams are not counting the correct Buddha's.

Oh wow, didn't think a team would be this generous. I mean, I know I wouldn't be. I do like Andy and Tommy, but seriously?!?! Do you want a million dollars? And do these teams not know what Buddha looks like?

Bill and Cathi hanging in there. Kind of shocked they haven't been eliminated yet, but I'm starting to like them. I feel as if it was very predictable due to the commercials. It was either going to be the Showgirls or the football player team...

The strippers left without stripping. Major letdown. :(

[QUOTE=Bacchus;281850]I'm liking hippies 2.0! Hey, they are real, right?[/QUOTE] I like them a 100x more than hippies 1.0! I'm begining to think that these old people may end up being like Meredith and Gretchen(pretty sure those were the names of the old married couple) from the season with Rob and Ambuhhh! I didn't particularly like, or dislike, the Vegas chicks, but I felt bad for Kaylani.

I remember them and if I'm remembering correctly they were the oldest team to ever make it to the final 5, or something like that. There is just something about Cathi and Bill that I just can't seem to like for some reason.

I hate it when teams dominate the race like Andy/Tommy, it makes the season boring. I'm definitely not on the Andy/Tommy love train. Especially since they gave Amani and Marcus the answer to the road block when they didnt deserve it and other teams had worked harder. I'm sad that Liz/Marie arent doing so hot, they are so funny and cute.

I'm very happy that Marcus is still here, cause I thought that team was going to go home. Wish the twins would've went home though, after the first episode where that one twin couldn't memorize the sentence after what looked like a lot of tries, I knew that they didn't deserve to win.
