TAR 32, Recap Leg 6, 11/18/20

Welcome to Leg 6! Last time, on Getting Lost in France in Six And a Half Hours or Less, 8 teams raced to Paris, France. Kaylynn and Haley continued to be slow, and Will and James, who bragged about driving stick, actually got help from Leo to get out of the garage. Riley and Maddison helped the finally christened Mine Five Alliance by telling them about the pie throwing and then won the leg. Michelle and Victoria got hopelessly lost, and were eliminated. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

TAR 32, Recap Leg 5, 11/11/20

 

Welcome to Leg 5! Last time, on How Long Does It Take to Make a Cello?, 8 teams raced to Asunción, Paraguay. Leo and Elana survived the Double U-Turn, and 6 AM Salt Mine Departure Alliance managed to help each other at the cello-making Roadblock, which pushed Will and James to their second win. DeAngelo and Gary had isues at the Detour, and were almost eliminated, but because Kaylynn and Haley took four hours to put a cello together, they came in last on the first non-elimination leg of the race, and will face a Speed Bump this leg. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

TAR 32, Recap Leg 4, 11/4/20

Welcome to Leg 4! Last time, on Seriously, Read the Clue, 9 teams raced to Manaus, Brazil and into the heart of the Amazon. Will and James solidified the 6 AM Salt Mine Departure Alliance, and somehow took out a vendetta against Leo and Alana. Everyone forgot items and bags before they got on the bpats to the Amazon, but it affected Jerry and Frank the most, who made it all the way to the village before realizing they need it. Will and James U-Turned Leo and Alana, and Kaylynn and Haley saved them a little bit by U-Turning Jerry and Frank, who ended up getting eliminated. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

Welcome to Leg 3! Last time, on Yields Were Better With Colin, 10 teams raced through Bogotà, Colombia. We are introduced to the new Yield, complete with hourglasses.

TAR 32, Recap Leg 2, 10/21/20

 

Welcome to Leg 2! Last time, on The Cast of Beetlejuice Performed It Better, 11 teams started Amazing Race 32 in Los Angeles and ended up in Trinidad and Tobago! Teams had to play Swedish Fish Roulette, and we learned that teams that are often athletic are not always good musicians. But in the end, it was the Catfish Noodlers who couldn’t catch a break, and were the first team eliminated, and the first ever eliminated at a “Keep Racing” Pit Stop. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

TAR 32, Recap Leg 1, 10/15/20

Welcome to Leg 1 of The Amazing Race 32! It’s been a long time since we’ve been together; in fact, this season taped in 2018, so Phil has to come on and remind us that this iteration of the Race happened pre-COVID. Anyway, the Amazing Camera moves around, and eventually land at the Hollywood Bowl in LA. The teams enter and line up in their rainbow of colorful shirts on the stage, the Starting Line for The Amazing Race 32. Phil then grills the 11 teams and makes them make snap judgements of each other. (Toyouke: “Look at Phil, encouraging everyone to stereotype their opponents.”) (click for more)

TAR 32, Recap Leg 0, 10/7/20

Welcome back to the Amazing Race! It’s season number thirty-two. Which taped in 2018. We waited TWO YEARS for this. Now, to be fair, probably a wise more airing this in the middle of a pandemic, since we’re all wishing we could travel places right now, and some of us have a huge case of wanderlust. Also, it is to be noted that this is the first season in a while without a gimmick. (Toyouke: “Phil says in the intro video that we're back to letting "ordinary" people run the race. Right before he points out there are TWO teams made up of professional athletes and a team of Olympic athletes. Also the gay couple, both members have already been on reality TV.”) Oh, and I brought Toyouke along for the snark. Aren’t you lucky? (Toyouke: “Also, everyone is claiming they love trying new food when they travel so they'd better have a gross eating challenge to call them on it.”) We’ve read the bios, and watched the videos and read the bios, so let’s get to this shall we? (Toyouke: “Why are the individual team bios on Instagram? I refuse to get an Instagram account and this is obnoxious.”) The eleven teams for TAR32 are: (click for more)
