SHE'S CLEARLY ONE OF THE CAMBODIAN PEOPLE: I'm with our friend Dan Fienberg about last night's episode of TAR. Disappointing as the outcome of the leg itself was, the leg's structure was equally disappointing--big airport bunch, navigation that was almost entirely dependent on the luck of the draw of how knowledgeable your taxi driver was, a boring (and not terribly telegenic) detour choice that seemed unbalanced, especially given that all but one team opted for "wrap," and yet another Roadblock that seemed to be unclearly judged as to whether teams met the "requirements." And then there's the heartbreaking ending, about which I think there's an opening for discussion--more disappointing--the team eliminated due to their screwup or the team saved from elimination by virtue of the screwup?
