From the moment I these two introduced themselves, they rubbed me the wrong way. They promised to use there good looks and feminie wile to get them what they needed. What they didn’t bother to tell us was that Eve would be using her tears the most.
My dislike of these two started before the race even got out of the country. There panhandling in the Miami airport was needless and seemed to be done simply to show that they could make guys give them money. This might have been a smart idea race-wise, but it certainly didn’t gain them any good will among the other teams, or the viewers.
Justice was quick to repay these two when, in the very first episdoe, Heather gets uncerimoniously dumped on her face by the donkey pulling their cart. I wonder if she learned anything? From this point on, Heather seems to be a pretty decent racer. She does have a few lapses here and there, but she mostly leaves the really annoying behaviour to Eve.
Speaking of Eve, she is one of the most annoying characters I have ever seen on The Amazing Race. If there was ever a person who was not emotionally prepared for a race around the world, Eve is the one. She cries at every obstacle they encounter. Have to jump out f an airplane? Crocidile tears. Going to miss a bus? More tears. Been eliminated for not understanding the English language? Still more tears.
Which brings us to the Reading Comprehension section of the race. No matter what has been said after the fact, Heather & Eve screwed up their final clue. When they realized it said “walk” instead of “take a cab”, they did nothing to correct their mistake. Instead they rationalized their choice and got themselves a one way ticket to Sequesterville.
My final thoughts? These two need to stop blaming their camera man and claiming there was a conspiracy and accept the fact that they made a mistake. Oh, and be sure to let me know which law firm you work for so I’ll know which one not to use.
“From the moment I these two introduced themselves…there good looks and feminie wile…jump out f an airplane… Crocidile tears…There panhandling…in the very first episdoe…uncerimoniously dumped” … Hey, Capt. Cosmic, while you’re ranting about “Reading Comprehension” & “not understanding the English language”, maybe you could brush up on your own SPELLING?????
