If you’re looking for something to do in the hours before The Amazing Race 5 starts tonight, then check out the recap of last week’s episode at TWoP. To start…

Previously on Ryan Seacrest May Have His Own Show, But Does He Have A Statue With Wings? No, I Didn’t THINK So: The drama. The comedy. The heartbreak. The schadenfreude. The flora. The fauna. The falling. (emphasis mine - heh) The locals. The music. The agony. The ecstasy. The Emmy.

A quote to tide you over until you get there yourself:

Phil next explains that adorable little “lifeguard transport vehicles,” evidently manufactured by Fisher-Price for its Li’l Beachcomber series, are taking the teams to the starting line at the Santa Monica Pier. Indeed, look, a pier! There’s even a Ferris wheel, and as you know, a Ferris wheel always says Good Family Fun, except when it says Meet Your Stomach Contents or Haven’t You Always Wanted To Learn About Joint and Several Liability?

To no one’s surprise, Phil explains that each team has “an existing relationship.” My brain fills in the inadvertently omitted words, “For now.”

OK, RUN now to read the rest.
