I feel like this show doesn’t even need the game show component… just show them trying to navigate getting lost then meeting their families

I don't think there should be penalties, only advantages. Like, winning extra time tacked on or a reduction in your challenge task or something or 20 minutes with a GPS or whatever. I really dislike the disadvantages.

Imagine if Team Black hadn't had to combat snow and fog with zero experience driving in it. They would have kicked butt.

[godisloveireland]

I agree the penalties should be for all the other teams not just one

[sandiross]

I don't think there should be any penalties.

I love how all of JTs brothers are not afraid to show emotion.

[lindas.patton]

Thank you for these reviews. Si happy you can do this again.

[cmick]

I wish that there was a show like this here in the UK.

[mrvera]

Just found this omg Steve’s story has got me crying to find his mums pic only to be told she’s died . Thank you for reviewing this so I can see his story unfold here in the uk 🇬🇧 🙏

I’m pulling for Team Blue this season after watching episodes 4 and 5 but I appreciate your enthusiasm for Team Green because they are my other favorite!

[TravelingBibliophile]

I agree a penalty for all other teams or a bonus for just the winning team I.e. they have a a taxi or Uber driver drive for them.

[BeeMillah]

Season 5 was good vibes all around. No penalties all season.

You need to react to the DNA results of YouTuber Artofkickz. His mother (now deceased) told him he wasn’t black. He is obviously black, just very light skinned. He is so funny. “ How does spit tell them I am bald with a hairy back?” He could use some explanation about the results.

[stevelknievel]

Is it just me that hoped that there would be footage of Team Green singing 'Is This the Way to Amarillo?'

[cosmicslice]

Canada no longer has access to BYU so I'm glad you're doing this! :). I think I'm rooting for blue again.

[saraschneider]

I'm guessing the ones not using kinship terminology are not Mormon lol.

[laporschelabelle]

Omg please do the whole season because for some reason I can’t access it. 🥺🥺🥺

[sroblem]

Sometimes I don't like the tone how they say that the adoptive family "Is not the same thing"... I get the yearning for knowing your roots, but that doesn't make the adoptive family any lesser. Makes me feel bad for the adoptive family

[marysueper]

I absolutely hate the penalties. These folks have been penalized by the circumstances in their lives and lack of family - just give extra hints or souvenirs or something to the “winners”

[krcmaine]

I'm back, I wasn't sure I'd watch another ep. because I don't like the compitition aspect of the show, but all the couples have such compelling stories that I want to see them find their familes.

That writing for the host is annoying. If this show was truly about family, they wouldn't have a cash prize to fight over.

Yeah, no penilties.
