Is there a chance for Iceland to be visited? Imagine racing beneath the northern lights! :hoot:

Hopefully! I mean, they could ANYWHERE in Europe this season IMO.

They might do a leg in Denmark and off to Iceland!

 :hello2: and :wel2 to RFF, BoxOfficeRevolutionary!

From what I know, TAR30's existence depends on the ratings of TAR29, but I'm not too sure about this. ???

I don't care about who are the racers. As long as there is season 30 and continue showing the amazing race.

Looks like we'll have another potential writers strike coming up for almost a decade.  :groan:


Will TAR30 get renewed on the writers strike?

One step closer to a strike. If they really can't get a new deal, the strike will begin May 1st.
CBS upfront is May 17. So the strike should at least last 3 weeks to be able to help TAR30 along.  :D

The last strike season was great so while this is a bad thing... :bunny

(granted they would likely be casting, like, now for a fall premiere so...)

Isn't a writer's strike a bad thing?

If so, how does it help TAR30? ???

Because this is a reality show and there are no writers which means a freer spot on the schedule :lol:

I'm sure CBS/WRP is taking this into account in their decisions. :)

A possible writer's strike will have little effect on whether a TAR 30 happens or not. It didn't last time either as the decision for TAR 12 scheduling was made before the strike. Even if a strike lasts 3 months like in 2007, the scripted shows will still be on the air by October 2017 (delaying new seasons by only a few weeks).

The last writers strike effect did help TAR13 got renewed instead to fill the schedule gap.

I disagree....

Are we still looking at 1 or 2 seasons a year?
Or is it now 0? And only 1 if there's a strike.s

That's not true at all...the strike was from Nov. '07 - Feb. 08 and TAR13 (filmed in March 2008) aired in Fall 2008.

The date was wrong. TAR 13 was filmed in April to May 2008. Applications were available on that season from November 2007 to February 2008, final casting selection was selected in around March to April 2008.

My point still stands that TAR13 was never intended to fill a gap in the '07-08 tv schedule.

Is shooting taking place anywhere soon? Is it something already known or just spec?

Could be wrong here, but isn't it that TAR can't shoot before CBS confirms the show's renewal?
