Am I the only one that likes Suhki + Jinder


I don't understand all the hate for them from the other racers or the viewers. In the beginning they clearly had little confidence as they were quick to ask for help without even attempting the task but as time went on they begin to gain confidence and have done fairly well in the tasks and unlike many of the other teams they've done it on their own.

They aren't the best with directions but in terms of executing tasks they're actually one of the stronger teams(I.e. When Suhki shot at the targets I think she go them all on the first try, they were the last to arrive at the flag challenge but finished quicker than the other teams, Jinder figured out the formula quickly, he also did the race car task quickly, Suki braided the horse hair faster than anyone else, etc) they can be a little annoying but they seem like genuinely nice people so I just don't know why everyone hates them. Oh and I can't be mad at them u-turning Rob & Ryan, at least that was strategic as opposed to Pierre & Michelle who did it just for the sake of doing it.

That being said I don't want them to win as I think Natalie and Meaghan ran a much stronger race and would like forthright to take the title.

I like them too. I don't understand the hate either. Maybe because they're Indian?

Some people claim they've only got by on luck, but that's a load of crap. They may have asked other teams for help, but they never actually received any help. All the other teams except Natalie & Meaghan have treated them like crap.

I want Natalie & Meaghan to win too. I have a bad feeling Rob & Ryan will win though. And they deserve it the least, being saved twice by non elimination legs.

If any team has had any luck this season it's Ryan & Rob. Suhki & Jinder have gotten zero help from any other teams a claim no team(not even Natalie and Meaghan) can make this season. Also as I have said before they actually execute the tasks pretty well. Sidebar, they even got the pucks in the goals in less attempts than our hockey Olympians...haha.

They're annoying and for the first half of the game they begged other teams for help in every. single. challenge. They were fighting for last with another team and still had the gall to ask them for help! That's plenty of reason not to like them.

They asked for help for the first few episodes but got none and yes it was annoying to watch but like I said they have gotten this far on their own. Yes they did ask Audrey for help during that casino challenge when they were the last two teams there and it was incredibly stupid but once they settled down Jinder figured it out in a short time.

They no longer ask others for help and bust through the challenges on their own so why not judge them on the racers they are now because they've grown tremendously. Hell I'll take them over Pierre & Michelle any day who intentionally tried to mislead other teams for the sheer pleasure of it.

I agree with you.

No one should ask for help in a game like this, but it's not like another team actually did help them. And since when is asking for help cause for disliking someone?

They've done a better/faster job than other teams on many of the tasks.

I'm really just happy that Pierre & Michel have no shot at winning. They were the most unlikable team this season.

Probably

I like them too, or at least don't dislike them. Even though they play dirty sometimes in the other racers' minds to me it comes off more like they've seen a lot of the Amazing Race before and are just wiser to playing the game. They seem like smart and nice enough people, not mean spirited, so I have nothing against them.

Sukhi and Jinder deserve some credit for doing well in a lot of challenges especially in this week's episode. I also hope like the original poster that Natalie and Meaghan win in the final because they've performed even better on average but Sukhi and Jinder are a respectable team as far as TAR goes.

I hated them before but they grew on me. At first they were whiny and I could picture their dad being some CEO or VP of Ford Canada or some big company where they haven't had to work a day in their lives. I really hated it when Jinder got off on U-Turning the other 2 like it was something to be proud of.

HOWEVER,

The last few episodes changed my mind, mainly Sukhi. She was pretty kick ass at the end, like that founding fathers challenge was like dammmmmnnnnnn seeing her go you are YOU and you are YOU and YOU YOU DONE. What I was kind of hoping for would be that they got the flag challenge first try, then helped the girls for giving them the clue. That would have been great redemption.
