I am so baffled with Jonathan and how he treats Victoria! I don't know who I am angriest with, him for treating her like a piece of dog poop on his shoe, or her for putting up with it. He has come so close to hitting her at times during the show, I seriously was hoping someone would put the hurt on him. Next week it looks like she has a major injury and he gets mad at her for hurting herself. What a colossal jerk he is. If they win, I am going to write a letter of protest- not that it will help but it might make me feel better. I hate men who bully women.

I didn't even watch TAR this time after having to stomach Colin and Christie the last time! He was abusive too, IMO. Of course later she showed herself to be a selfish little so-and-so, and a bit racist to boot.

My happiest time of that show is when they got "Philiminated"!

I hate him too. I thought Phil was going to tell him off that one time - but Phil just said that he ought to go to talk with his wife. Ack!

I truly hope that this is an act - I just can't beleive someone would be stupid enough to do that on camera and not be an act.

The thing is I think it's more than bullying...he's raised a hand at her at least once on the show, and she flinches from him. I am ex. surprised they made it past all the testing I'm sure they do before choosing contestants.

MA, I will write a letter in protest along with you, I love the show, but I get SO angry when he is around.

He has raised a hand to her on the show, I thought it was twice though, not just once, its so pathetic~

Better to cut them off...it's one of the most demoralizing thing you can do to a man...but given the nature of his actions, a punishment fitting of the crime.

I saw them on an entertainment show and they both stated they were "acting" up for the cameras, even though they had been told repeatedly not to. I don't believe it was acting - I now tape the show so I can fast forward them if they really irritate me.

I've only watched the show a few times but I think I know who you're talkign about (is the the guy who was yelling ENGLISH!!!! SPEAK ENGLISH! to the people in Senegal?)

The older couple were my favourite by far. Not only did they encourage, rather than threaten, they didn't seem to mind taking a little extra time to look around. It's like the other teams are so desperate to win they don't even realise that the show itself is a dream trip around the world!
