Hopefully they don't make Phnom Penh look as ghetto as Cai be and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. LoL
The episode airs this Sunday on CBS at 7:00/8:00c. Should be interesting to watch. Here's a clip:

I saw the show last Sunday and it was lame. I even hated how everyone on the show pronounced the word Phnom Penh the way it is spelled. They should change it to Phnoom Peynh.

All the teams pretty much get the destination right but we are then treated to the ignorance of the racers. The American educational system will likely not be using this episode as a mark of its merits. Only three people recognize the woman in the photo as Jackie Kennedy Onassis: Gary (who is old enough to remember JFK), Zev and Lance (who likely just pulled the ol' "I was just about to say it was her", when a local identified her as Kennedy). Flight said it was one of the queens from Cambodia. Sam and Dan declare her a queen or princess but they likely make that conclusion because the name of the hotel is Hotel Royal and the clue says that a suite is named after the person. We can cut them a little slack but not Mika and Canaan.
They get to give the state of Tennessee a bad name. First, Canaan says that it was Queen Elizabeth and then Mika counters with "this is definitely someone of Cambodian descent. She looks like the people of Cambodia." With Canaan's agreeing nods to Mika's statements that means Canaan believes that Queen Elizabeth is Cambodian. I am sorry for any Tennessean who may be judged by these fools.

Just downloaded and watched it. I felt sorry for the guys that came first but lost the passport and got eliminated. But it's their karma for pronouncing Phnom Penh way off. (they were talking about karma with the Cambodian taxi driver about too).
I'm surprised they didn't go to the Royal Palace, the Museum and Phsar Thmey. What surprised me the most though is how some of them didn't know Jackie Kennedy, some said she's Queen Elizabeth (LOL) and said she's Cambodian (OMG). Haha... even some Cambodian Taxi/Tuk Tuk drivers knew who she is.
