adrian and colin

[keilu]

only caught the last part.
i knew adrian and colin won - they already have a commercial with sony 
anyways, it was a better season than the first one 

[AICRAG]

Double D.  Depressing and Dissapointing for me and my wife.  hehehe.

considering may mga "malas" sina adrian.  eg. hindi pinaiwan taxi and they had to flag for one after getting the clue, bumaliktad yung quadbike and muntik ma injure, stuck wheels ng quadbike.

I wanted Mark and Rovillson to win cause I enjoy seeing the grimacing host whenever they do. 

Inis na inis siya everytime first sa isang leg yung 2. So this time ang saya niya.

[frootloops]

Dumb *ss Rovilson, he blew it.

[indie boi]

oo nga. It takes the award for "stupid move of the season". I don't know why the two decided that Rovilson do it. They should've taken a cue from the final task of the last few seasons of TAR. Marc is obviously the brains between the two so he really should've taken that challenge.

[tonedeaf]

i watched the finale with my friends. it was such a letdown after  marc must be having nightmares about letting rovilson do the detour. the thing is, those two always seemed the most prepared - for example, they had gloves and nose clips when they had to shovel s***. couldn't believe they didn't think of noting down the flags of the countries they went to. i've seen at least one amazing race season with that as one of the final tasks.

nakarma yata sila dahil sa deception nila sa sand dune. anyway, oks lang, nakapanalo naman si rovilson ng pretty babe! adrian and colin have zero personality

[dobler]

couldn't believe they didn't think of noting down the flags of the countries they went to.

Too bad Rovilson didn't play Carmen Sandiego when he was younger.

[Phobos]

I don't know why the two decided that Rovilson do it.

I think they decided before the race to do road blocks alternatively so as not to waste time arguing about who should do it. I just wish they ignored this rule for this leg of the race. But I'm pretty sure that Rovilson is now an expert in flags.

Then what would you have done if you found out that the team behind you was only following your tracks?

[blitzkrieg]

   I saw the dismal ending of this show. It would have been a lovely sight seeing Marc and Rovilson arriving first with the Philippine flag  in tow. I guess that's how the cookie crumbles.

BUT if you add up the value of the entire prizes the two got everytime they finish 1st, which includes a US$5,000 visa credit each, a Sony HD vidcam, an all expense paid trip/accomodation to Capetown, South Africa and I forgot the rest, their finishing 3rd doesn't look bad at all.  WAGI PA RIN!!

Plus 1 year free fuel from caltex yeah being first is just an icing on the cake sana Good thing about them is they are so cool under pressure

[Mo®pHeOu$]

Sayang talaga!  Nagkamali sila ng decision for Rovilson to play the flag game.

Well, atleast they still had the composure to run with the Philippine flag in their hands.  So patriotic! 

[krets pulpol]

this is a freakin' disappointment when i watched it.    they had the momentum but rovilson blew it!
but this is a great episode to end the season, we've expected they're too good to finish first but in the end they were last  i had to give it to adrian and colin because if there's a more deserving team that would be them.

did you hear what pamela and vanessa said when they went second? they did better than the PH boys even if they didn't get 1st! mwehehe

somebody please give rovilson a poster of different flags like the ones in national bookstore or quiapo!!! 

[jm33_babe]

and the frustrating thing was marc majored in geography

... makes me wonder what made them decide for rovilson to do the task.

during the finale party of TARA2 at singapore... flags jokes were thrown to rovilson. and the bday cake given to marc were decorated with ..... what else flags...

allan wu keep saying that they were "good sport"

[runner10]

Just goes to show........ brain > brawn   

[Clondalkin]

Well most of the tasks were so much easy compared to getting there.   At least I have to give credit to Marc and Rovilson for being so good in moving from place to place using whatever help and resources they can find along the way (and their charm I guess).  That's not mere brawn IMO.   That's the problem with the other Philippine team.　I remember the husband mentioning in an interview that they tried doing things on their own instead of seeking assistance from others.

Anyway, just tough luck in the end though for M&R.

Haven't watched the original Amazing Race yet but are there really that much bunching up?  It would have been more interesting if the producers can find ways to give the contestants many options of getting from one point to another.   The struggle to find the earliest flight from Singapore to Frankfurt was a good example.   Contestants could have been given the choice to drive from Frankfurt to Prague instead of waiting hours for the overnight train.

[blitzkrieg]

  What's this I hear that for the next Amazing Race Asia, the Philippines will have as reps:

NENE TAMAYO and RICO BARRERA?

I have no doubts on Nene's power to conquer. Rico? I don't know..

[indie boi]

Really? Maybe they just applied. The application period for TARA 3 has been extended so I don't think teams have been shortlisted yet. Many "celebrities" are applying for the show though. Just last season, I saw the audition video of Joaquin Valdes.

[sardaukar]

The way things are going in TAR Asia, it seems the next race will have to start and end in the Philippines for a Philippine team to win.
