I sure think that "Amazing Race" has since they let Rob and Amber on.
It used to be a family favorite here, but just isn't the same with them in the game.

1. I stopped watching TAR
when Myrna and Charla lost. I *loved* them!

Rob is a scheming weasel and Amber is co-dependent.

I think the producers made a huge mistake having them on the show. I know it's to create tension and water-cooler buzz but I actually turned the station last night because I couldn't take any more of Rob's BS.

I was pissed that when the gay couple came in first last week they weren't awarded a trip unlike the other teams most (if not all) other weeks.

I'm losing interest in this show and it has been the one "reality" show that had redeeming qualities, IMO.

Once this duo is gone, though, I'm back on the Amazing Race bandwagon.
