Four thumbs up? Good gravy.

uummmm, gravy (in Homer voice)

I expect to either get annoyed or love them for some dumb reason.

Going off of this picture only, they look like they will have fun and neither looks like a whiner, so that's good.

As a fellow scientist, I must like them until they do or say something to discredit the profession. It's in the rules.

Were they even in the show?

[Tsylyst]

I think they giggled once.

 

They must make it a few more weeks if they aren't getting screen time this early.

I'm very happy with the way last night's show worked out.

 

Amy is like this big dork running around keeping up with the athletic kids and I don't think I've seen anyone have more fun on a reality show than Maya and I will always pull for that. They have been my favorite team all year.

 

They are the underdog and have very little shot at winning but I almost always root for the underdogs who are having fun so I will be rooting for them.

I admit that they look like they've been having fun, but Amy sure didn't look like she was on that episode. I'm kind of amazed that they're still in it - they've been pretty lucky.

Amy's inner klutzy dork sometimes gets the best of her, I cringed when she hit that car, but Maya's positive attitude is just so rare on reality shows, I'd love to see them win. Don't see it happening, but it would be fun.

I agree with your sentiment ... except for that last bit about being my favorite team. I can't explain it, but they annoy me. Personally, I would rather have any of the other teams win.

 

Maybe it's because they are not hot nor blonde. Am I that shallow??

[Tsylyst]

They are totally annoying. They seem like nice people (if you're into that sort of thing), but they in no way entertain me.

[jerrye25]

I'm very happy about this.

 

I never saw them as annoying...always having fun and running a fun race. They did just enough to not get eliminated each week and then in the end took advantage of getting good directions to get out front and the last challenge was a brain one and Amy did good there. I always root for the brains until the brains give me a reason not to..and they never gave me that reason. They were fun.

 

Loved Maya's reaction upon winning.

 

My favorite season in a while.

[ff174]

Loved the season.

 

Hated the winners. They were annoying.

 

A lot.
