The Newsroom

When we last left our heroes , they were firmly in the NHL basement. Now, as the accompanying screen cap shows, they've scratched and clawed their way into a tie for 28th place. Pity the New York Islanders. Of course, there's a line of thinking that suggests the Oilers may actually be worse than last year's team, which finished dead last overall. So don't go planning the Stanley Cup parade route yet.

We have family over, so we're not doing a big recap tonight. Nick and Vicki basically gave up and took a six hour penalty rather than finish their last task. But was another non-elimination leg, so they're still in it - albeit way behind and with a speed bump to boot. Most undeserving team ever. Next week: North Korea

As noted last week, I had a social function last night so I couldn't recap the show. And as it turned out, it was a "special episode" dealing with the final 9 (read: It's Thanksgiving in the US and no one is watching anything other than football.) So, I skipped this one entirely. Be back next week with a real show.

It's Double U-Turn night on TAR, a twist in the game that will no doubt have the Internet fan boys up in arms. The teams made their way to Bangladesh. Jill and Thomas got there approximately 2 weeks ahead of the other teams. Jill and Thomas used the U-Turn on Brook and Claire. Nick and Vickie were second to the U-Turn but declined to use it. Nat and Kat U-Turned Chad and Stephanie. Chad and Stephanie finished last and were eliminated. We wish them well in their future endeavors. Next week: Grey Cup in Edmonton! And race drama!
