They were snipey but the daughter is just nasty to her dad and constantly negative. She got super butthurt about the UTurn and never recovered

Her social media is all about how she's an influencer and travels to all of these amazing places where she probably spends the whole time taking and retaking instagram photos

Life would be simple in the forest except for Cyril Sneer. And his life would be simple except for The Raccoons.
I have to say, this has been a fun season overall.

I weirdly like the father/daughter team. There's just something :lol: about how they keep managing to not lose.

Her job description in the OP is "Private Flight Attendant/Influencer" so I guess that's how she's able to fly to a bunch of places to take those photos

The camerawork this season has been particlarly good, I've seen a number of shots that seem more complex than a typical reality show.

Incredible scenes as 3 teams completely fumble a lead and Team Beard jumps everyone. Also jesus christ Anna-Leigh constantly screaming at her clearly exhausted wheezing dad who can't even speak to move faster.

Yeah haha the editing at the very end made me think there actually was a point to all of Anna Leigh's yelling, plus episode name, made me think they were actually at risk but they were just the slowest of their little tour group. And if she didn't want to be last on that group she could've stopped having everyone follow? I wonder if having places matter beyond last night incentivized some more competition when you get to weird clusters like that.

I think in the stress of the moment they're thinking more oh gently caress oh gently caress gotta get to mat fast. Also they didn't know for sure Todd and Ashlie were behind them, much as none of them knew Team Facial Hair was ahead because none of them could find a subway station.

I mean, I can't give her too much guff for yellin at him because I'd be the same way. It's frustrating to have your cap paced by someone who can't move as fast even while casually walking irl, and in a race situation you end up with pent up energy that you can't sprint with because you're holding back to not lose your straggler. This excess energy can be dissipated verbally.

I enjoyed that the beard bros, seeing no others ahead of them, simply assumed they were behind and not in first.

Giggled at the Nobel thing with it airing the same night Kissinger died (one of the biggest wtf winners ever). I wish they'd named who was at the tables.

Seeing Joel and Garrett so happy at being first made me happy, even if I want Rob and Corey to win.

Anna Leigh went on this show knowing her dad can't run like she can, and knowing foot races happen. I get it's frustrating in the moment but what did she expect?

Has there ever been so many older people/dudes in final 4?

Their names were on the cards on the tables. I remember Einstein and Marie Curie were at the table the boys were serving but the other two names I didn't recognize so they didn't stand out.

Yeah, the cards were representing people at previous dinners, and the years matched up with the dinner from that year. Then the teams had to give the correct food to the correct person based on the menu and the name card.

There was a shot that I as a passive viewer thought managed to catch the last two just on opposite sides of the last bridge, but I went back and looked at it and it just happened to be people dressed kind of similar.

Editors/camera people are working hard this season.

I didn't mind these two at the beginning of the season but it seems like the stress of the show has really turned them into miserable people. I did laugh at lot at her dad saying something like "Annaleigh's always there to motivate me" followed by her yelling "COME ON DAD!" again and again as he ran up some stairs and looked like his heart might explode at any minute.

I find her entertaining and I think I might be rooting for their team. This is the most I've stuck with a season, I tried one that had survivor people on it once but don't remember finishing it. Am definitely curious to go back and see some of the worst couples and pairings in past seasons.
