New Guy with a Question RE: TAR Casting Habits
Competitor:
Hey guys,
I'm a huge TAR fan who just stumbled upon the board yesterday. I have a question about the producers' casting habits. Do you think that the cast demographics are pretty much in proportion to the teams that apply. IE: A whole lot of couples and sporadic others indicates that overwhelmingly large numbers of couples apply as opposed to all girls teams or all male teams.
I have read about three pages of posts and love the boards! Look forward to great conversations about TAR.

I'm a male and I plan on applying the next go around and I'm debating between trying to take my fiance or a very good friend. I'm 24 and my fiance is 22. My friend is 35. Do they shy away from the younger all male teams that are more athletic? I might not have a choice between the two depending on work schedules and availability.

The producers care about teams that will be able to bring in the ratings. Are you good at making alliances and enemies? That seems to be the gold standard nowadays :snicker:
Seriously, though, the most important thing is that your team needs to have a compelling story arc. How is your relationship with your fiancée vs. that with your friend? Lifelong relationships are always good.
Competitor:
Appreciate it.
