Do you enjoy the competition on The Amazing Race? After I watch the show, I like to discuss some of the decisions the teams make. Please share your thoughts with us after you watch the clips below.
In this clip, Bates and Anthony discuss the U -Turn issue. The decision has been made to U-turn Mona, Beth, Joey and Meghan. I do not agree with the teams strategy to U-Turn these teams. I would not U-Turn anyone because Mona and Beth have to complete a speed bump, and Joey, Meghan, Mona and Beth, were on a later flight.
1. Do you agree with the U-Turn strategy?
2. Since Mona, Beth, Joey and Meghan were on a later flight, do you think it is necessary to U-Turn them?
3. If you were in the race, who would you U-Turn?
4. Do you think having an alliance is okay at this point in the race?
5. Would you choose to be in an alliance if you have a choice?
In this clip, Mona, Beth, Joey and Meghan work on completing their tasks to avoid elimination. I was happy about the attitude that Joey and Meghan had about the U-Turn because they focused on completing the task. I was not surprised by the determination both teams maintained while completing the tasks, but I would not have chosen to roll one barrel at a time the way Joey and Meghan did.
6. Did you like the attitude that Joey and Meghan had when they found out there were U-Turned?
7. Are you surprised that both teams were extremely determined to complete the tasks to avoid elimination?
8. Do you think Joey and Meghan made a wise decision when they decided to help each other and only take one barrel at a time?
9. Are you happy with the way Joey and Meghan completed the tasks?
10. Beth and Mona have been consistently supportive of each other during the race. Do you think you would be as supportive to your friend as they have been to each other if you were in the race?
