Almost a decade of The Amazing Race, Top Ten grestest Moments of The Amazing Race
During the 17 Seasons of The amazing Race, we have seen several moments that have shocked us, made us very happy, made us sad, and have just pissed us off. Here are the Top 10 moments I have chosen
10. Season 1 Premieres: Now I know people dont asee this as a big Moment, however we wouldnt have the show if it never Premiered. Although the first Season sucked compared to other Seasons, it did have it's fair share of Characters, personalities, fights, and more. One thing I remember was when Five teams were left, and 2 Teams became ahead of the others by almost a day. They were so behind, that trailing teams Nancy & Emily, kevin & Drew, and Joe & Bill were unable to catch up. Joe & Bill are one of only Two teams to never cross the Finish line, the other being David & Jeff from season 4.
9. Linz Family Triumphs: Season 8's Family Edition is regarded as the worst season of TAR by several fans. However, I really liked this season. I loved the rivalry between Weaver Family versus everyone else, and I thought they casted a lot of good teams. Never mind the Annoying Paolo Family, and the Gaghan Family not making it farther, it was an awesome season. The Linz Family, started the race off well, but by the end of the first Leg, they had fallen behind and were in danger of bieng Eliminated. They thankfully made it to the Pit Stop, and not only kept getting better and better, but ended up winning the Race.
8. One Fat bastard and a Rope swing: Kevin & Drew are one of my all-time favorite teams. They are funny, loud, and hilarious. One of the best Kevin & Drew moments occured in Season 1 during the first Detour, which involved swinging from a Bungee cord to recieve a Clue. that's when Drew uttered the line heard round the world, "Swing fat bastard swing."
7. Rob & amber are beaten by charla & Mirna: One of the most shocking Eliminations, I bleieve in The Amazing Race history occured during The Amazing Race All-Stars. Rob & Amber, who had dominated Survivor: All-Stars, raced together in Season 7. They dominated Season 7, only to lose to Uchenna & Joyce. Season 11 seemed to start the same way, where they came in First Place the first 3 legs. During Leg 4, they fell behind, and embarked on one of the greatest foot races to the Pit Stop ever, which resulted in their shocking Elimination
6. Chas proposes to Stephanie: Season 17 was a very exciting Season. It gave us some great Charatcers, awesome Competition, and the most hated Couple, Chad & Stepahnie Waltrip. In the first Episode, Chad revealed that he would ask Stephanie to marry him during the Race. A few legs later, he did just that and proposed to her on one knee. Now, they are married and have a baby on the Way. Congrats I guess.
5. Carol & Brandy get owned by Caitlin Upton: Who said beauty queens didnt have guts? During The Amazing Race 16, Caitlin Upton, famous for her YouTube video where she mumbled like a drunk monkey, tried to redeem herself by competing on The Amazing Race with her boyfriend Brent. during the first leg, Dating Couple Carol & Brandy decided to bad mouth the Beauty Queen. During the race, they had poor attitudes during each task, and were negative in every situation. Their bad attitudes and trash talking caught up with them during Leg 9, when Brent & Caitlin U-Turned the team. This Carol & brandy to bitch and moan about how stupid Caitlin was for U-Turning them, and she could have U-Turned other teams based on they were bigger threats because they had come in first. I feel like they just wanted to pick on Caitlin, and were being sore losers like they were about everything else.
4. No Passport, no Check in: Justin & Zev were fan favorites for Season 15. Zev had Asperger's Syndrome, and he was raicng with his best friend Justin. I personally was a fan of the Team. But during their best leg, they came in first. However, after checking in, they realized their passports were missing, meaning they couldn't check in until they had been located. This led to one of the saddest Eliminations ever in the Series.
3. Melongate: There have been several tasks involving food in Amazing Race's 10-Year history, but during Season 17, it led to a watermelon to the Face. during one of the best tasks in amazing Race history, Home Shopping hosts Brooke & Clair were doing a task involving launching Watermelons into the Air. After a few shots, Claire launched the watermelon, which then slammed her in the face.
2. A Douche and his wife: There has been a fair share of bickering Couples on The Amazing Race, but nothing comes to close to that of the phsycotic relationship on Jonathan & Victoria Fuller from season 6. Jonathan would never stop complaining, berated his wife, and in one of the most shocking confrontations ever, actually hit his wife victoria. This led to tons of TV Talk and even an appearence on Dr. Phil. A couple years later, they again appeared on a Reality Show-themed Episode of Fear Factor. Johnny Fairplay was one of the Contestants competing, and was taunting Victoria during the Challenge. After Victoria was Eliminated in the Challenge, she went up and hit Fairplay. This caused Joe Rogan, tv host and UFC commentator, to say to Victoria, "He [Jonathan] may be able to hit you at home, but you cant do that here." This caused the most likely steroid positive Jonathan to get in Rogan'sw face as if they were going to have a UFC match on National TV. However, the fight just consisted of the two yelling, "hey hey hey," back to each other.
1. Nat & Kat make history: After 17 seasons of waiting for history to be made, it finally happened on December 12, 2010 when Nat Strand & Kat Change become the First all-female team to win The Amazing Race.
So there you have it, my Top 10 best moments in amazing Race history. Be sure to watch when The amazing RacE: Unfinished buisness premieres February 20, 2011 on CBS

Jud "Fabio" Birza defeats Chase Rice and Matthew "Sash" Lenahan to become the Sole Survivor
Jud "Fabio" Birza, a 21-Year-Old Model from Missouri defeated Chase Rice and Matthew "Sash" Lenehan to win Survivor Nicaragua in a 5-4-0 Vote, become th eYoungest Winner ever.
The Finale was a usual one, the Two Final Immunity Challenges, 3 Tribal Councils, a lot of Scrambling, etc. Except it brought us some of the most memorable moments ever.
After he was Voted off, Dan went on a hilarious rant about how he hated the other Castaways, only which I saw as his last 15 Minutes of Fame. Later, during the Fallen Commrades Segment which I have become fond of, when they ot to NaOnka Mixon, she summed up the season saying, "I was friendly," this was followed by footage of Mixon knocking Kelly Bruno over to get a Hidden Immunity Idol clue, and NaOnka stealing the food at the merge.
At the Final Tribal Council between Chase, Sash, and Fabio; most of the jury seemed bitter by Chase's and Sash's deception. Expecially Sash, who Dan said needed an Eye Exam to get rid of his weird wink, I thought some of them were mean, while others were more civalized.
After the votes were Cast, Probst collected the urn, then after the pre-taped portion, we were sent Live in LA where Fabio was declared the Winner.
One of the best moments of the night came when Probst questioned Homophobic douche Shannon about his comments is Episode 2 where he accused Sash of being gay. Without missing a beat Shannon said, "I was just calling a duck a duck." Sash added, "I did meet his girlfriend," however Probst didn't want to hear anymore, Probst quickly cut Asshole Shannon's comments and moved on, proving the editing had nothing to do with what we saw from Shannon, and that he is indeed, a douchebag.
The show ended with apreview of the 22nd Season of Survivor entitled Survivor: Redemption Island, which premieres this February.

Brandy Kuentzel defeats Clint Robertson to become The Apprentice in one of the most Anti-Climatic Season Finales ever
This Season of The Apprentice hasn't been a huge ratings hit. This is most likely why the Tenth Season Finale is the first Apprentice Finale to not have a Live Winner Reveal.
Since Season 1's Finale, The Apprentice has always featured a Live portion Finale in some way. Most of the Finales have lasted 2-3 Hours, except for Seaosn 3's Live Finale which was only 1 Hour. This season's Finale wasn't only an Hour, but it was Completely Pre-Taped.
The Finale began where last week's Finale left off, with Clint and Brandy completing their Final Tasks. Clint had to put together a Dinner and Concert featuring Liza Minelli. Brandy's task was to put together a Golf Tournament featuring Comedianne Kathy Griffin. After they completed their tasks, which took up almost the entire hour, the FInal 2 and their Teams met in the Fina Boardroom, where Trump assesed the FInal 2 and their chosen teams.
After the Two Teams left, Trump asked Robertson and Kuentzel each why they should be hired. Clint Rambeled on about why he would make a great Apprentice, while Brandy, chose to bribe Trump by talking aobut he would bring Trump into a new generation. Immedietly after this Trump, congratulated the Final 2, then he promptly Fired Clint and hired Brandy.
Now usually, at this point, we would hear a cheering audience, and confetti would fall. The Winner would shake Trumps hand and do a victory dance. However, tonight, after Trump made the decision, both Robertson and Kuentzel left the Boardroom, Robinson exited stage left without even an Exit Interview. Kuentzel walked back into the Suite and was Congratulated by her fellow contestants.
Hopefully next Season, we can get higher ratings, and a much deserved Live Finale.

NaOnka Mixon and Kelly Shinn both quit Survivor, making this the first time two people have quit in the Same Episode
In what will be the most talked about event around the watercooler tomorrow morning, both NaOnka and Kelly Shinn decide to quit at the same time making this the first time Two peole have quit in the same Episode.
Afterthe huge product placement Reward challenge featuring Gullivers Travels, which NaOnka's Team won, both Naonka and Purple requested to quit the game, stating they were both done with the game. Jeff questioned both of them, and said he wanted to think about it and they would make a decision at Tribal Council.
That night at Tribal COuncil, Jeff asked them again, and they chose to not only quit, but also said they deserved to have their Torches snuffed. When NaOnka stated that everyone else had their torches snuffed, Probst shot her down and said, "They didn't quit." However, Probst did snuff their torch and left it at TC, meaning we will only see them as a flashback to Tribal Council during the In Memory section of the FInale.
This leaves Fabio, Jane, Sash, Chase, Holly, Benry, and Dan to compete for the title of Sole Survivor.
