Too Much Blue

Wait, what? I didn’t blog about The Amazing Race Australia yet this week? It’s unheard of!
I had best update you then, here’s what happened since I last posted about the Purple team getting eliminated….
It became the Nathan and Andrew show. Seriously, I don’t think any one else has had more than a few moments screen time this week.
It started when Ajay announced that the voting was not over for the night — it was time to vote for the biggest threat, dun dun dun, except not so much because it was obvious they wouldn’t be going home.
Predictably Nathan and Andrew, team Blue, were chosen and Ajay then informs us that they have the chance to stay. It’s 6 vs 1. All other teams average weight loss vs theirs. If they lose they go home, if they win they get to decide who goes home.
Green team have a bit of a freak out about this assuming they will be the target.
Delightful Bob gives his biggest loser of the week prize of getting to spend time with a loved one to…Nathan and Andrew.
Warehouse, Nathan and Andrew get to decide which group have to live off of $5 a day and which group have to live off of take away — they opt for the $5 themselves.
Andrew damages his knee, hospital visit, drama drama drama.
Sheriff and Teresa win immunity because Nathan and Andrew weren’t eligible. This means they also win the power of the walk — the walk reveals they have to give pleasure to one couple and pain to another. They choose Yellow for the pain and they are packed off to a ‘Dark New Force’, trainer Emazon who pretty much beats them about a bit and tells them to toughen up, then sends them on their way noting that they are not to tell any one about Emazon (cheese alert!).
Orange and Yellow have a bit of a blow up.
Nathan and Andrew commentate on all of these events by the way, their opinion is the only one that matters don’t you know.
Challenge comes around and the hamsters have to walk across a beam spanning a pool carrying weights. It’s Everyone Vs Nathan and Andrew. Everyone suck at it and only successfully manage to get across once in 90 minutes. Nathan and Andrew get off to a slow start but then kill it and bring back a score of 10. This means that everyone else has to now go without their trainer until after the next weigh in.
Win or lose (and based on the edit, I fully expect them to win) I will just be glad when this week is over. Too much Nathan and Andrew, far far too much.

They already had one Simpsons wallpaper on the site and since he had the same image on his desktop at one point I knew he’d like it. Unsurprisingly they have a Babes category jam packed with content — funny that they are always the busiest areas on wallpaper sites, isn’t it? hehe — but I couldn’t possibly be seen to encourage him to look at other ladies, so I went with Homer’s brain.
I don’t know why I have only just started watching this show, it’s in it’s 5th season already but it is the first one I have watched.
I have hobbies other than watching too much TV then blogging about it you know?
