I haven't watched since the first or second week but I tuned in last night. I obviously missed whatever made Chip/Reichen hate John/his fiancee (shit I forgot her name already), but I have to say that Chip was obnoxious to John last night. Maybe it was warranted by past behavior, but it just seemed mean. As a result, I was sad that the clowns didn't make it in time. They seemed like good guys. And wouldn't you assume as a contestant if you saw others running on foot that you should reread the clue to see if that is the only permitted mode of transportation? Have the Harvard chicks taught other contestants nothing?!
Alas that shark cage thing ensured that my SO and I will not be participating in future shows.

Yeah that shark thing was the first thing I've ever seen on a reality show that made me think "hmmm these people might be in some jeopardy here." Especially seeing as how it was in Australia, where people think nothing of going out to swim amidst the box jellyfish and whatnot. For a very entertaining book read, check out Bill Bryson's "In a Sunburned Country," especially the bits about how laissez-faire the aussies are about the potential for death or extremely serious injury.
I thought Jon's line "C'mon honey, you're getting beat by a gay guy" was hilarious. They haven't shown any evidence that Jon is homophobic, but it's weird that Chip would be talking shit if Jon hadn't said or done something.
We are definitely rooting for Kelly and Jon in the str8 household. No question about it.
