Lightbulb Who's your favorite family?

Mine is the the Gaghan family from Connecticut. Little 9 yr old Carissa is adorable. The whole family are runners. Even Carissa and 12 yr old brother Billy run 5Ks! They edged out several adult teams on the premiere! Hope they make it a long way! They're a very supportive family...very positive and always cheering each other on!

So totally opposite from the Paolo family from NY, whose husband and 2 sons make fun of the mother till she cries, and they all talk down to each other, griping and cursing their way through every leg of the race. It's a shame the father allows this from his sons, but he is just as guilty himself! No one in this family shows an ounce of respect for each other, and the parents are to blame for this.

It's quite uncomfortable to watch the Paolo family put each other down, especially the sons yelling at their mom, but I'm sure deep down inside they all love each other.

Yes, my fav right now would be the 3 bros and 1 sis team, the Linz family.

The Paolo family is a little unbelievable, and the Dad doesn't say anything. Did you see how happy Dad was when he found out he was not in 10th place, (they were in 9th place,) very emotional. I hope the mom and kids don't kill each other!!!

Wow the Weaver family is really kicking it into gear. Came first place, and won a trip. I got to say that the top contenders right now are definitely the Weaver family and the Godlewski family (the pink ladies). The Linz and the Bransen family also top contenders. The Paolo family just made it to the end eliminating the Rogers family.

I think the Paolo family is so comical. They should have their own sitcom.

My favorites are the Gaghans!

I can't stand the Paolos (well the dad's ok) and now the Weavers are bugging me for some reason.

Carissa and Billy Gaghan should be in the movies. She is adorable! Another Dakota Fanning?

I'm sorry TAR fans, but this season is just not kickin it for me. Ya, if there's nothing else on I'll watch it, but there's just not enough excitement. I loved TAR's previous seasons, but I don't know the whole family thing really makes it G-rated. Anyone else feel the same way, I think they should have stepped it up a notch. Maybe things will turn around... who knows.

It's still one of my favorite shows this season. I love the family idea! It works for me!
