Changes Viewers Would Like To See *Are you reading, CBS?*
jetishidae:
More riddle based route info/clue maybe, so the next destination is solely based on a riddle. So we can see the possibility that some teams might go to the wrong destination? i can't stop imagining what happen if Jeff & Jordan actually flew to China instead of Chile and it's not even riddle based :groan:
but at the same time i think it's pretty easy to solve ;_;
i just like seeing teams trying to solve a riddle based clue
Instead of getting 2 express pass for the 1st place teams during the 1st leg. they got 1 express pass and a power to u-turn any teams in any legs, even the legs w/o uturn. so the advantages are solely for that team.

TAR Canada made that - I would really like to hear what teams have to say, which were their favourite places / tasksx..

Great idea! :tup:
Which reminds me of another thing I wanna see: On a starting line task, the 1st team to finish it will win 1 EP.

Always. Plan. A. GOOD. Finale. Memory. Challenge. We fans and viewers love and look forward to that. I don't care even if you repeat TAR 12's memory challenge a 100 times. That was hard and considering the amount of things they interacted with throughout the race.. this memory challenge could have been repeated for so many darn seasons!
I don't care if you love the Globetrotters or Cowboys. You can put them on the race and nothing we can do. But if you have to bring back, can you at least pick more decent choices like BQs, Charla and Mirna and Oswald and Danny? I mean, I don't even mind seeing Rob and Amber again! (But still, better them than Globetrotters)
And can you at least please spare a thought for the fans and put teams we actually LIKE? Not teams like John and Jess or Leo and Jamal who has more haters than fans, you know? I know they probably have some Unfinished Business, but it's NOT MY PROBLEM. I don't care if they didn't use their Express Pass and it was a sad story. Period.

--- Quote from: aryanisetiawan on November 27, 2013, 05:30:51 AM ----i think the music ( soundtrack ) of season before and season 18 are much more dramatic than season 19 until present. well some rare legs had it. however, i found it a somewhat significant problem. i didn't get the feeling of "these teams are so frustrated in a place they didn't know, and they have to finish this crazily difficult task", instead i only feel "you know, this teams are doing a not very difficult task, and they're having fun with it. " i lost the intense feeling that i used to have when watching the previous seasons.
-i love how phil narrates every single task and destinations. he hasn't really done since season 19. we only see some teams reading the clues while the cameras directly showing the destinations without phil telling them
-i really miss a pole next to the pitstop showing the location of the city and the country. i don't know, it looks really cool and gives you the sense that this is a serious race which features countries around the world.
these are the little changes that i wish could happen again in season 24, it probably would increase viewers. is it possible that we could express our opinion and give it directly to the amazing race production crews? i really wish there was

OMG I ranted the same two points in the BMS thread. :lol: I think they really really should focus on fixing this first. Even though TAR 15 and TAR 16 were not that much good, I'd take them over the TAR 19 to 23 just because they really made me feel like I'm part of the race too.
--- Quote from: Cocoa on November 23, 2013, 09:44:21 PM ---Anyways I rewatched clips (from my collection) of TAR 5, TAR 8, TAR 10, TAR 11, TAR 14, TAR 17, TAR 20, and TAR 23.
In terms of sound editing and Phil's spiels, I truly enjoyed the pre-TAR18 era (especially from TAR 14 to TAR 17). The music makes me excited and terrified and pumped at the same time. In today's era? I feel like I'm watching a soap opera. No more intense music? :|
Phil also used to narrate in his amazing "mysterious" voice, and in most tasks he described them which is actually good bcause we can learn a lot from that culture. His pre-TAR18 voice were so crisp and lovely that when he describes the tasks it makes it A LOT MORE INTERESTING. Now? He's annoyingly happy, which for me makes the tasks easier than expected.
For this all-star edition, I seriously do hope they return to what they have done before (especially during TAR14-17). With this cast and this boot order (yay for youtube for 3rd out hopefully lololol), having sounds and Phil's voice added makes me want to not watch it (but meh im still going to watch it for the sake of watching it :lol:)
... Or maybe I'm too old for TAR already... and that's a problem because I'm only just 20 years old. :lol3:
