The Amazing Race 22 is the twenty-second installment of the reality television show The Amazing Race. It features eleven teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, in a race around the world.
Just saw one. Seriously, three teams will quit in the first episode?

That's I annoying, I really hope the blod part isnt true!!
This sand thing is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be.
Like the cast a lot this time around, but I was also a fan of the cast from last season so...
Favorite Teams so far in no order:
Married couple with the *****y wife
Father/Son combo
Twins
The couple that got first
The country bumpkins
The token blonde pair
Asian woman friends

I like the teams that finished 1-2-3. I've always had a soft spot for hockey players...
I like the team that finished first, the hockey guys, the blondes and the Asian women. Of course, the only team I can't stand so far is Joey & his partner. Not a big fan of the newly wed team either.
I think this is a dumb idea by the blondes.
Ugh at the hockey players, typical boring alphas that will likely win the game. I liked the roller derby girls, the blondes, the unfriendly newlyweds, and the Asian girls.
I loved the sandcastle roadblock and the fact that the route from there to the mat did not involve any taxis. I haven't formed any strong opinions about the cast as of yet and though the first episode was actually quite good.
Of course, I say that almost every season and then reality comes crashing down a few episodes later.
I didn't like how misleading the commercial I saw was. Three teams did not quit. Three teams (stupidly) gave up knowing that there was still a chance at making it to the mat first.
It looked like half of the teams weren't digging deep enough so some probably passed up a clue in the midst of their search.

Stupid for the firefighters, not for the blondes or newlyweds

That's what I was thinking when I was watching it. The clue actually looked quite deep in the sand whereas most of them were just knocking down the sandcastle.
And was it just me or was anyone else constantly singing "Sandcastles in the Sand" when watching the episode?
It was an alright episode...
The twins are just feeding the stereotype... if you are going to go on TAR... learn to swim!!!! There is ALWAYS at least one challenge requiring swimming
My fav team the father and son came second but the father may have ruptured his achilles tendon!! NO!! That sucks sooo much
Not a fan of the team with the express passes... guy comes off as shady and ******* (you care more about the passes than you do the guy that just got hurt)
Bora Bora is so nice!! I want to go there sooo much :D Great location to start the season.
Why is it my favorite team is always in dire straights before the show even gets rolling? I really like the father/son cancer survivor team but the prognosis is grim.

I know right?? Fortunately they are still allowed to compete, but they will definitely have a hard set back with him on crutches. GAH I love them so much... such a terrible situation they were put in.

Agreed. They were one of my favorites to start but it's not looking good for them.
Well they are in the lead to the pit stop because they used their express pass... I hope they stay around for a little more. Wouldn't it be awesome if they somehow miraculously still won the whole race? I can't see it happening.. but that would be a story haha
I don't know who else to root for now though :(
NO!! They need to keep going!! Continuation legs suck!! Especially if you just tore your achilles tendon lol
And can I just say this season they are going to all the places I've ever wanted to go to... Bora Bora, New Zealand, Maui... such beautiful places!

Yikes! Continuation!
They should just call it a race. As you've said, they've seen some of the most beautiful places on earth and can take a trip to Bangkok 6 months down the road after he is recovered - on Travelocity. Not that bad, really.
As for who else to root for, I am at a loss right now. I'll have to make that determination next week.
Dave and Connor are easily the best Amazing Race team EVER... I have never rooted so hard for a team in my life. I love that they aren't giving up.. true champions.. no matter what place they come in!
The second half of the UNC v. KU game just started and they have 20 minutes to play 20 minutes of basketball.
No fouls, no timeouts, no clock stoppage?

Looks like TAR is going to be running late as usual.
And we are only running 46 minutes behind. I'm guessing no one saw that one coming.
So now the big decision...watch TAR tonight or skip right to The Walking Dead.

Tough choice indeed. I might go with TWD. Amazing Race has been kind of boring this season.
