Amazing Race Asia 3 - Early season prediction

Amazing Race Asia Season 3, otherwise known as TARA, started airing last month with much anticipation and is now into Episode 4. With 10 brand new teams, this season has been dubbed "The Toughest Race Ever". This makes me wonder....if Season 3 is the toughest race ever, does that make Season 4 and beyond cupcakes then?

As predicted, there are more models, actresses, beauty queens , TV personalities in TARA than the average Joes. For entertainment purposes, this isn't all that bad. It boosts ratings, no? Sure, we all want the "normal" people to win the race but let's face it, deep down in our hearts, we like the existence of these celebrities in this show, even though we bitched about it. Bear in mind, if you are not from this elite group, don't bother applying to be in this race. Really. Don't waste your time.

My top 3 this season - Henry & Bernie (Team M'sia), Sam & Vince (Team HK), Ida & Tania (Team M'sia). I think these 3 teams are very competitive, strategise well and don't bitch at each other. Key ingredients to winning.

Early season awards (drum roll please):

Most Likely to Win it all - Sam & Vince (Team Honkies).

Most Likely to Win the most legs - Henry & Bernie (Team Bolehland).

Most Dramatic - Niroo and Kapil (Team Capati), thank god they were eliminated in the last leg. How much more drama can we take?

Most Laidback - A.D. & Fuzzie (Team Kiasu)

Most Annoying - Ida & Tania (Team Bolehland), but hey, still one of my favorites.

Most Dumbest - Natalie (Team Tomyam). Sorry Natalie, you are alone in this one.

Most Misunderstood - Geoff & Tisha (Team Pinoys), I see nothing wrong with Geoff.

Most Untrustable - Oliver & Mai (Team Tomyam). Karma bites, dude.

Teams that have already been eliminated thru Episode 4:

Leg 1 - Neena & Amit (Team Capati) - dunno much about them.

Leg 2 - William & Isaac (Team Kimchi) - So much hopes for this duo.

Leg 3 - Natalie & Pailin (Team Tomyam) - Quitter. (singular)

Leg 4 - Niroo & Kapil (Team Capati) - Quitters.

For the last 3 legs, Team Bolehland Malaysia has been first at the pitstops so congrats...Malaysia Boleh! Woohoo! Tune in to Amazing Race Asia 3, which airs on AXN, Thursdays @ 9pm. For more details, log on to http://amazing-race-asia.axn-asia.com/index.php.
