The Amazing Race Season 17 - (Season Wide Discussion)

That's the thing - I wouldn't mind if they just didn't try to create drama with the "xxxxtreme" editing between the two teams. It's obvious that they're nowhere near each other but they have to play this game about the "traffic being bad and they might catch up!". It just makes the show feel much more produced than it already is - ie, when they decide to create villains and heroes in the show (homophobic cowboys, for example).

I just feel like my intelligence is being insulted, which is not what I expect when I watch a travel porn show.

Agreed. Oftentimes you can look at the angle of the sun and tell just how far back a team really is. The false suspense editing rarely works so why bother with it.

Well they showed Dallas(hottest man in the world!!!)in the preview for the next season so COUNT ME IN!!!!!

Also, I hope the fact that they showed just about every team from THIS season DOES NOT mean they are ALL going to be in the "second chance" season. I for one DO NOT want to see the Chinese father and son return or a couple of the others. Give others a go!

YAY!!! I'm glad these two won, but I was also hoping for the two Home shopping network chicks. I think both docs are hot (that is the main reason I was cheering for them), but I liked the HSN chicks because they were fun. Overall it was a good season, especially when all the teams I hated got eliminated.

A lot of the teams they showed in the preview won't be on the next season. Sadly, Dallas won't be on either.
