TAR episode 14.2 polls

TARbloob's polls for "The Amazing Race" episode 14.2 are up. Aside from the usual "grade the episode" poll, we also have one up on which team you hoped would be eliminated as the episode ended. Marrieds Steve & Linda, brothers Mark & Michael and flight attendants Christie & Jodi all verged on the brink of elimination.

The more interesting question to me though is really a meta one, whether CBS should have waited a few more weeks to start airing the show in the first place. The first two weeks of "The Amazing Race 14" have been among the lowest rated of the show's run, either because of the show's possible declining popularity or because of conflicts with the Presidents' Day weekend and the Academy Awards.

In retrospect, I want your opinions on whether the show premiere should have been delayed till next Sunday to avoid these conflicts or not. In fairness, waiting would have created its own problems as the TAR14 broadcasts could have then extended beyond May sweeps into the television off-season.


TARbloob poll

Yes, the show should have waited to avoid the holiday and Academy Award conflicts.
No, a delay would have pushed the finale outside the spring TV season.
