Inviso 12/13/18 6:08:42 PM #171:	Enter TAR30. Its wonderful and amazing to me that, after Paul made their lives hell and treated them like absolute shit all season long, it took them about a month to WIN as much money as Paul LOST over the course of two summers. But more than that, they were extremely interesting characters on The Amazing Race. See, with their backs up against the wall in BB19, we never REALLY got a feel for their personalities beyond their underdog status. For me, I kinda expected a villainous, mean girl attitude from Jess, in a situation where she didnt have Paul asserting his dominance over the rest of the house. Lo and behold, thats exactly what she brought to TAR30, and I loved it. See, Jess had this one-sided rivalry with Lucas & Brittany that included her not telling Brittany about a forgotten gnome, or faking a wrong answer to get a slight advantage leaving a roadblock. And all this did was infuriate the lifeguards, while ultimately not benefitting Jody that much. In fact, they got U-Turned as a result, during a crucial F6 leg where they started out way behind. It didnt help that Jess spent most of the season serving as her teams incompetent partner (a lot of the teams in the final four had that dynamic, now that I think about it), which led to some struggles in the mid-to-late portion of the season. Meanwhile, Cody proved why he was a feared comp beast in BB19. Every time he got to do a roadblock, he absolutely beasted it (and some non-roadblocks as well.) The only time he had any real sense of failure was during the final 6 dance task, which was just comedy gold if you know Codys personality at all. Hes very stiff and stoic, so whoever though to put his race on the line via a lively, African dance deserves a fucking raise, thats for sure. In the end though, it was JESS who won the season for her team though. In a massive turnaround, she managed to piece together her puzzle before the Skibots or Yale, and I bet that million dollars feels great when combined with Codys proposal soon after. I just loved their two-season story arc, ALMOST enough to give them the top spot for TAR30but not quite. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier. Inviso <cite>Inviso posted [p:914076311] in Darkx and ...
