TAR 23 East Coast EP 1 SHOW updates and commentary **Please read the rules**
guacamole300:
I don't get the people who say it was so amazing... IMO, there was nothing special. It was pretty middle of the road... the tasks, the location, the cast... I mean, somebody said that last season's was pretty unmemorable, but the sky diving in Bora Bora was spectacular! One of the most scenic premieres in the history of the show.
This one was like... okay so I guess the paragliding with the dunes and the ocean is kinda nice... the rowing task was just ok, decent in the sense that some teams could make a mistake by the wording of the clue, but not exciting for a premiere... the teams were just ok, the Afghanimals are pretty annoying, thought I would like Tim/Marie but they had no real spark yet, I usually like the F/F teams, but these are pretty generic. WAY too many M/M teams. but I guess Chester/Ephraim are kinda nice, as are the Oklahoma boys. I THINK I might root for Jason/Amy, but I really dont know. Nobody really stood out for me...they were all just sort of there, or annoying.
I don't know, I was like very underwhelmed for my favorite tv show... hopefully it picks up and the cast begins to deliver.
Edited because I forgot to mention about the new intro, also I don't get why so many people hate it. I really like it, and the new music is great as well. Love the new instruments.
Also, forgot about this. i really felt for Naina. She seemed really excited for this and the only thing she did was ride in a cab. The design of the double roadblock was crappy, because she didn't do any real task.

This times trillions.
Out of all the Races, this one takes the cake as the most disappointing. From the cast to the starting line to Hoskote's unapologetic elimination, it was a downhill spiral that landed like a stick in wet sand. I'd say it was very unmemorable and felt more like a *gulp* video travel log than a race. :P
Iquique has a bright and old-classy casino, good surf sights at the beaches, and a historic part of town called Paseo Baquedano fit for a Chilean traditional task, and out of all places, they feature a boat marina and its fish? This is telling me the producers either need to fire the current route creators and rehire the old ones, or retrain them to know what quality control for task creating is since the second Roadblock was not appealing and the paragliding was another skydiving from TAR20.
Just had to lay it out there.
Air:
TAR21's premiere was better than this garbage.
(Fallopian tubes and abacus lady <3 and NaNa fighting all the time <3 )
stekay:
And super disappointed with 4th place :funny:

When the front of the pack were paragliding from Alto Hospicio, they landed on PLAYA BRAVA, that is why the clue said "Find your partner, they will be paragliding to one of Iquique's beaches and you'll have to be brave to get there" Playa Brava would be something like Brave Beach.
BUT when the back of the pack, Jason, Brandon, Hoskote and Tim landed, they did it on a different beach called PLAYA HUAIQUIQUE. It probably didn't affect the outcome of the race but is really bugging me, specially if the clue said something about Brave Beach.

The second batch of teams got a different clue which told them to go to Huaiquique beach.
