In all fairness it was Wynona's choice to roll her cheese down the hill. Chuck was an ass all race long towards her. His 15 minutes of fame is not flattering.

Switzerland, wow, that was beautiful...but snowblindness and no one was wearing tinted goggles. With all that snow, it didn't look like the cold bothered them as much as the high altitude.

And yes, Pippy, one of the hockey players, Bates, I believe, does look like Prince William at times.

Great episode again last night.

Chuck needs to lighten up on the wife a little. She is who she is and telling her she sucks doesn't solve anything.
Did they never watch the show? Didn't they know she was out of shape, to begin with? Didn't they know they would be competing against younger people who were exercising and getting in shape fo the show? What was WITH him nagging her like that?

What was the exact wording of their instructions, I wonder? It seemed clumsily phrased. They must bring the cheese down the 'proper' way? I wish they would have actually read the instructions again at the time Chuck and Wyn came to the end.

If I remember correctly Phil said that they had to climb up to the shack with the sled and load it with four 50 lb rolls of cheese and take it down the hill to the storage shack and unload it there to get their next clue.

Wynona was getting on my nerves so bad in this last episode. I'm so tired of hearing her whine and complain how she can't do something. I was upset when they didn't get eliminated.

Wynona probably did that all race long, it's just the edit showed it more in this last epi. Wynona is alright, she's just lacking some self confidence, which is understandable seeing how the guy who looks like his mother was a sheep treats her.

I wonder if they have producers or someone go through the rules in more detail when they get there than what is stated on the clue. I know in Survivor, Jeff Probst tells what they have to do in a challenge, but then what they don't show on tv is that they can ask questions about it and the challenge designers walk through the whole challenge with them so they understand it before they start.

They seem to know things the audience doesn't know. Like when they were having to walk on that ledge and Joey and Meghan got stuck behind Chuck and Wynonna, my wife wondered why Joey & Meghan didn't just go to the other window. My guess is they were either told which one to do go to and had to stay there or once they picked a window, they were stuck there.

Wynona was irritating constantly saying that she could not do this or that, but her waste of skin husband was way worse. He was so rude to her the whole time. He had to know this would be hard for her between her weight and not being real young. As far as why the show allowed her, it is no different than them allowing someone in thewir 60's. They want diversity and the show knows darn well they don't have a chance, but they want varied ages, races, and backgrounds.

I agree Wynona has self-esteem issues but I would to if I had an idiot like Chuck around acting that poorly. Dude, lift those around you up, don't tear them down. He looked bad the entire race but really bad in that episode.

I love that part of Switzerland. It's amazing. One thing you learn when you get up to Grindelwald, it's a mtn town! lol I remember walking to my hotel with my backpack, whoa, I'm fit and it was a struggle. That episode really made me want to go back! (I'm thinking that's the idea )
