 I don't know what casuals think of the teams remaining but I assumed that Nat/Kat would be the casual favorites :lol: I'd say Brooke/Claire, but Brooke's so over the top and I figured casuals usually root for the MORP teams.

 My opinions on winners being satisfying are correct. Noone may contradict these.

Brook/Claire are the most entertaining left, so they would be satisfying
Nat/Kat are the most likeable left, so they would be satisfying
Nick/Vicki would be the most lulzy winners, so they would be satisfying
Jill/Thomas are not entertaining, likeable, or lulzy, so they would not be satisfying.

 Yet again I check the GTS TAR thread hours after the episode has aired....and no new posts. :lbf

It was a predictable episode. I thought with a later flight that Nick/Vicki might be able to catch up, but once they missed it we all knew they were doomed. I'm sure most people are happy about that anyway.

This was the second time the show went to South Korea, and I do prefer the first time they made a visit, which was in TAR. They were also down to four teams in TAR4, but I feel like we got a little more South Korean culture injected into the episode back then. It was a similar route format - the teams first went towards the North Korean border and did a roadblock, and then went back to Seoul to do the detour and finish the leg.

When comparing these two South Korea legs, you can definitely tell the show, and specifically the challenges, have gotten a little tamer. I mean, picking out a bandana vs. a plunge into frigid waters and swimming under ice? No contest there. Then with the detour, ice skating as slow as you want/delivering some bottles vs. eating live octopus/breaking boards with your hands? Again, not much of a contest.

Going into the finale, Brooke/Claire is still my favorite team. Nat/Kat remain to be my least favorite. Jill/Thomas? If they win, great. If not, that's fine too. I would rather have them win than Nat/Kat though, a comment which plenty of people around the internet will disagree with.

Brain: Jill/Thomas
Heart: Brooke/Claire
Gut: Jill/Thomas

 Personally for me I think the edit has given away that a F/F team will win.

And also personally for me I can't imagine wanting Jill Thomas to win more than Nat/Kat. They are both about equally as boring when it comes to drama and charisma but Nat/Kat are so many times more likeable...

Wait, does TAR not edit each episode separately anymore? There used to be no way to know until it happened. Even TAR 11, the last season I partially watched, I don't think I ever expected the half and half team to win. Maybe that's why the show sucks. Or maybe it's because they switched the time slot to Sundays.

Well I mean they just talk about an all female team winning like all the time which I feel they would only mention if it happened.

 They did the same thing in TAR11. So no, it's not a given.

 I agree with Jeff's rankings.

GO BROOK/CLAIRE!!! :wub: I would be so happy to have them as the first F/F winners so we could finally put this crap to rest.

 I agree that Jill/Thomas probably don't win based on the finale preview. It was hyped up too in TAR11 but not with that much emphasis about making 'history.'

Go Brook/Claire! Then Nat/Kat. :wub: Jill/Thomas can DIAF.

 I actually like Nat/Kat... they have a subtle charm and sense of humor about them. It's endearing. I thought they were boring up until a few episodes ago, I think when they went to Russia and named themselves Katia and Natalia.

I think Nat was Natasha, but I really didn't find that interesting.

When they were like, "our parakeets are so mellow" or w/e. -_-

I was happy with the outcome, but mostly because Thomas and Jill got last. Although I did feel for them. Nothing is worse than being in America and having to deal with immigrants that can't speak English. I mean seriously, don't think you can come here, be a cab driver, and only need to know the word "GPS".

I do like how they are calling next season "Unfinished Business" since they know that can't get away with calling it "All Stars 2" with the shit cast they have lined up.

 YAYYERZ NAT/KAT :<3

I was hoping Brooke/Claire would win but Nat/Kat would have been my 2nd choice, I'm glad TAR finally got an F/F winner. The spoilers on wiki had B/C and Thomas/Jill reversed I believe, so Brooke and Claire getting 2nd was a pleasant surprise :wub:
