TV SHOWS Worth Watching

We all know by now that the AMAZING RACE: CANADA has finally ended and the winners are: TIM Sr. and TIM Jr, the father and son team.

The last pit stop where all the contestants gathered at the Olympic park and from where the host of the show, JON MONTGOMERY(Olympic Medallist) announced who the winner is and their prizes: $250,000 + brand new Corvette + one year free ride via Canadian airlines (Air Canada). Wow! How's that?

Correction: Olympic Island not park can be reached by a ferry ride to the island. A drum bridge they have to cross to the finish line.

The question is don't they also win the $225,000 from the Caramilk's contest? Actually $250,000?

Correction: They have the chance to visit the Cadbury's Museum and unwrapped the chocolate Caramilk and have to search for the "gold bar" and then have to exchange the gold bar with the golden key to open up a safety deposit box. Inside the box was the American Race clue envelope and inside the clue envelope is the contestant's task to go to the Toronto Zoo and find another clue from the clue box which is located inside the Giant panda's territorial site.

I first thought the game will have its pit stop at the Toronto Zoo where the two giant pandas are rehabilitated however that's not the case they have to pass the test of being able to know all the Canadian provinces and territories including their corresponding floral emblem.

THE AMAZING RACE always have that "twist and turns" and a little bit really twisted that it's almost like a "real reality movie" or the making of a movie and stunt men and women are called to do the real job of actors and actresses. Lots of risk involved especially when they have to go down from the top of the skyscraper hoisted, hanging from a rope? That's scary and risky. If that's the only way to win $250,000 and a corvette will you do that stunt? It's totally weird.

Why somebody with Parkinson's will do such thing? Why people with disability will risk their lives? For what?

"Get your ass...." the winner said to whoever who wants to hear it. I could only laugh.

Some people will risk their lives to save some people they love. Some people will do it for money. Some people will do some stupid things like people climbing up the highest mountain, they got stranded, they died and let the rescue workers mostly volunteers suffered and let the government paid for all the rescue efforts amounting to sometimes 50 to 100 millions of dollars!!!!!!!Tax payers have the burden of all such effort to save lives!????????????????


A commercial followed after the winners are announced and on September 29 Amazing Race in the US will begin its first season's race.

While the winner of the MASTERCHEF for Year 2013 is LUCA!
-----------------------------------------------------------
Other shows on TV are as boring as it could be because of its repetition, replays ... replays! RIP!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
X FACTOR starts early with its brand new gimmick and hopefully brand new top 10 and brand new winner that is worth deserving
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE VOICE? Christina Aguilera and Silo joined the two judges Maroon 5 lead singer Adam and I can't remember the name of the other judge but he reminds me of the guy who shopped at Superstore.
What's his name? He looks like the hubby of Faith Hill. Ah whatever!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course we still enjoy watching VICTORIOUS , BTR , iCarly and POWER RANGERS MEgaforce and lots of cartoons esp. Timmy TURNER's Fairly Odd Parents.

Wishing no more replays because paying TV connection per month is already a sucker!
