I could have sworn my DVR missed half the episode, what with that first elimination happening so soon and no physical challenge. Then it clicked that they were spanning two weeks, but I was pissed at first, lol! Not sure I like it, hope they only do one elimination per episode, like they normally do, from now on.
shareI'm with you. I was confused as well.
shareWell I'm pretty sure the reason is most of the season is going to be hour-long episodes but they just put two episodes into one this week because they're waiting for another show to start up that will fill one of those hours. Remember most shows are on break until late January. Some later.
If you don't want to be spoiled, you shouldn't be here in the first place.
I wrote a post before the season started about how much I hate the looooong eliminations. I said that I get bored when they spend 20+ minutes on the weight ins and that I would quit watching if that continued.
So...second episode, weigh in starts. I look at the timer on the DVR and see that we are not even halfway in...45+ minutes to go and I switch of and quit. I expected the weigh in would fill the entire rest of the episode. I came to this board to vent and saw how people were praising the shorter weigh ins...went back to the episode.
So, yeah, I was confused and it almost got me to quit the show in a way.
