Six weeks away my foot


Do they really expect the audience to believe they wait a whole week between each each taping? The whole thing probably took less than two weeks to film.

The whole thing took 2 months to film which is about six weeks. I watched an interview with Jeff and he said they started filming in March and wrapped up in May

So what did they do with all that downtime? The actual competition couldn't have taken that long. They certainly didn't send them back to their hotel or whatever for a week at a time to do nothing. I know on most of these reality shows they do the interviews "after the fact" and make it seem like it's happening right then but even with all that there's no way it could have taken nearly 2 months. The Amazing Race lasts 12 episodes and it only takes 30 something days to film. Anyway, if it had really been six weeks, Brian would have been out of that cast.

This season was comprised of 7 episodes. I'm assuming each episode took one week to film. You know how they have 3 challenges in each episode? It's possible they are spread out throughout the week to fill the void (e.g. signature bake one day, tomorrow is technical, and showstopper the next).

And I think a lot of them practice and plan what they will be doing for their signature and showstopper for each of the specialty bakes. I'm quite sure they stay busy.

There would have been a lot of changes from start to stop as far as how the contestants changed their appearance -- I just don't agree that seven weeks was how long they were at the Georgia location -- maybe there had been some pre-Show prompting of the group to discover what kinds of videotaped interview background footage to put together about Who they were and Where the Contestants had come to this part of their Life Experience. . .

People's appearances do not change all that drastically in 2 months period. How different could they look from start to stop??

Hair can noticeably grow in 2 months, especially if it's short to begin with.
