There were weeks where we let the recording sit on our DVR for the entire week - that wouldn't have happened before. The finale was a microcosm of the season: eh.

Even when it's not the finale, I feel like any major advantage/disadvantage due solely to flight availability is a bit of a copout. Very few big flaws in the structure of this show, but that's certainly one of them. Agreed.

I too, thought it sucked that they won because of the toll booth EZ Pass. I was all pumped up when Lyn and Karyln went to a different airport...thinking maybe they'd get a better flight than everyone else...and outsmart them all. Hmm...maybe I'll have to watch the all-star season. I’ve never watched the show..but did catch the finale. I too, thought it sucked that they won because of the toll booth EZ Pass.

GO ROB AND AMBER! Heh heh! Yeah, the finale wasnt as exciting as some others, but they also didn't insult us by making it seem closer than it was. I, too, wish there had been some thinking kind of puzzle for the end. It seems like the last leg should involve something other than just flying somewhere. Am I incorrect in remembering that they used to not get money for cabs and public transport? I can’t wait for the All-Stars season. GO ROB AND AMBER! Heh heh!
