I was just reading some speculation that this was a replacement leg. It was originally planned to be in the Philippines, but was moved at the last minute due to the typhoon? Could explain why they separated the teams with by three hours. (not enough time to get 9 x4 seats on the first flight.) It would have been far more exciting to watch all 9 remaining teams duke it out in Malaysia all at once.

Also a behind the scenes video (originally posted in November.) of Rachel & Brenden preforming a task in Kuala Lumpur, from next week's episode:

I always wonder when there's many teams running around at once how do the camera men avoid getting the other teams camera man in the shot?

LMAO yes, I noticed that. I enjoyed this leg though. Teams sure had a hard time at that river

Chances are they do, but they edit around it as much as possible. A lot of times, the pit stop arrivals are re-filmed anyways.

I dont like this season... they always choose the worse team for all stars
They need to bring back Queen Brooke and Claire from s17 or all time favorite Dustin & Kandice

I think a few of their first choices said no to returning. Tim & Marie no doubt got a call to come back, but probs said no.

Isn't that where the flight went missing?

The irony

Imagine that the race was being shot now and all the teams were on the flight that went missing.

I'll be shocked if tonight isn't a non-elimination.

I was not at all surprised this was a non-elimination leg, I kind of figured it would be.

This episode was not surprising at all.

1. John & Jessica - We still haven't had an equalizer since the start of the whole race, but their making their way up the pack anyway.
2. Brendon & Rachel - They're funny and cool :lol: I don't know how long they will last in the race since it's all-stars and they're not one of the strongest.
3. Dave & Conner - Great racers but boring. Mormons aren't allowed to go to bars or clubs? So their not allowed to have fun? I really don't see what's so bad about a bar?
4. Caroline & Jennifer - They did well this episode.
5. Margie & Luke - Luke is so annoying
6. Leo & Jamal - Not used to having them this high on my list since they were always last last season.
7. Flight Time & Big Easy - They are invisible, and that's the only good thing about them...
8. Jet & Cord - SO ANNOYING

What could possibly be annoying about Jet & Cord?

Anyway, a good episode and a good spot for a non-elimination. My favorites would have to be Dave & Connor, Jet & Cord, and Margie & Luke. All strong teams that are deserving. I also have a small soft spot for Brendon & Rachel. The other four teams I don't care much about.

They are pretty much the worst team to ever be on the race

jesus somebody eliminate flight time and big easy. they don't even deserve their all star title considering they are failures at navigating themselves, have been riding the coat tails of other teams and if not for that damn slide, they wouldn't have come far as they should in their previous season.

About the cowboys... Just the things they say irritate me. Their accent. Their lack of skill but great deal of luck. Getting fans to show them where everything is, and then saying "they run the race alone." Plus any of the 3rd-peaters pretty much annoy me because I'm sick of them being on another time. Second chances are nice but that's it. I like to see new faces. I just can't really relate to them because they are nothing like me. So the way they act just annoys me.

They're nice guys that actually have a lot of skill. They're damn good players that know how to complete tasks quickly.

The accents don't bother me but I agree with the 3-peaters thing.

Also, Flight Time & Big Easy have been very under the radar. It seems like they're not that determined to come out on top; it looks like they rather just want to have fun. They are 3-peaters too, right?

The Cowboys would be a good team if they weren't homophobic

So glad it was a non elimination leg, I would have been PRESSED if Brenchel went home for encouraging that brat

We need a full equalizer that puts the teams at the same point. The top 3 teams all did terribly in the episode, but still came Top 3 because of how they placed in the previous leg.

The two teams that probably did this leg the fastest were Caroline & Jennifer + Jessica & John.

Jessica & John were probably the fastest at doing the leg with the river, but have not been able to place well since they are on later flights.

And it looks like we still won't get one because Brenchel seem to be taking a risk with the flight as per the preview for the next episode.
