Jeckyll & Hyde season for me


This has really been an odd season for me. Just watched the 9th episode and it was a great episode, great location, very good tasks, and the elimination in doubt almost to the end. Problem is, with only 5 teams and three legs left, I'm still not caring that I don't know all the team names unless I look them up. That's been my disconnect this season. Its been a season of great locations, some great endings, better than usual tasks, but on the flip side, I'm making zero connection with any of the teams. I guess if I had to pick my favorite team, it would be Burnie and Ashley, maybe for no other reason than they don't put on this false show every time the camera is on them. I mean Cole, do you really have to act like the village idiot every moment the camera is on? Maybe this is their world and I can't connect.

Too bad, because I think if the teams were better, this could have been a great season.

Three legs left and I don't think I really care who wins or loses. Even if Sheri and Cole managed to win or Dana & Matt, I'd probably be, meh, whatever.

I said to my flatmate the other day that it feels like a two seasons in one, the pre three week break and after.

Pre three week break was so bland and boring with the tasks, contestants and destinations that it really feels like it was a past season now.

When the already gone contestants names come up on the credits, i think "Oh yeah, they were this season".

I've only just learnt Burnie and Ashley's names, i like them though!

Yeah I was impressed with those 2 this week. With the King's gone they're my new #2 team after Tyler and Korey. I didn't know their names either.
