As usual there is a little too much (actually a lot too much) screaming and yelling from the teams; even the adults in the room.
I thought the scramble was an interesting move, although it was confusing about which team was ahead of which team.
I am disappointed about the elimination of the non-elimination leg, although I think there were too many in past seasons. Have always wished they would not make the first leg an elimination leg since you hardly get to meet the teams before one of them is gone.
Having just watched the first episode I don't have any favorite team, or hope a certain team is eliminated (although the excitable woman in the introductions is my first choice to see leave unless she calms down a little along the way.)
