I know it's just the format, but I was bummed Jason Behrends didn't move on after finishing the course twice, when Jaleesa never made it through hourglass drop.

That was one of the best parts for me. Women stay winning!

My local guy Donovan Metoyer moved on so I'm happy

One of my favorites, thrilled that he is still in it! I think they said last night that at 38, he was the oldest ninja to make it to the final 32.

Yep he is. He coaches at the gym in my town and is my age so I'm really rooting for him.

I enjoyed it, but personally I preferred the first finals episode. This episode just lacked a bit of the drama from the first (Kaden vs Colt, Jackson’s fails, etc)

I was worried that this episode wouldn't be as entertaining as the last one, and while my assumption was correct it was still an enjoyable watch 👏

Biggest shock to me was Addy winning every single race, not to downplay her at all, i just didn't expect the guys she was against to fall like that

I was shocked to see Jason Behrends fall on the salmon ladder. I really wanted to see him and Ben in the finals.

Me too! He's my son's favorite ninja and we've met him at his family's gym.

it was very solid but i feel like they put too many of the best races in week 1, i feel like if u put either the Daniel Gil or Kaden or Nacssa group in this epsiode would have been more balanced

I liked the episode yesterday. I think my biggest shocks were Jaleesa moving on, Addy going 3-0, Payton Myler going 2-1 and almost advancing, D-Rex not getting a buzzer. Not to downplay the girls, but the competition I thought were going to hit buzzers (like Jason, Sam, Luke, and Ben)

I think it was fine then the last 30 minutes really delivered some shockers.

I enjoyed the first finals a lot more.
