I follow LaToya Jackson from her stint on the Celebrity Apprentice and I follow Corbin Bleu as a fan of High School Musical and I noticed the two tweeted during the finale (with Corbin following the TAR Twitter) o.O

I know it is an ENORMOUS reach, but is a Celebrity Edition possible?

I know this is not a wishlist thread, but I hope TAR is not planning on Celebrity Edition. What are the chances of this happening? ??? Meanwhile, I'm still speculating on a regular season because it is quite overdue.

THE CASTING SITE HAS FINALLY BEEN UPDATED!!

Quote
We are looking for a Teams of two ! You must have a pre-existing relationship with the person. If you are not familiar with the show, please go to CBS.com and become familiar with the show. Typically we choose teams that have known eachother a minimum of one year. We choose relationships that are "relatable". For your best chance of getting on the show, please refer to past seasons 1-28.

We are casting now for a race that travels sometime between September 2017 and January 2018, 
for approximately 25-30 days.

So we will only see TAR30 next year, around the same time S29 aired? :(

Well there we go, filming sometime in the fall more likely.

December, January, that would probably mean mostly southern hemisphere countries.

I could see a Season 20 or 22 type of route, with southern hemisphere summer legs like in S20 Argentina or S22 Bora Bora, as well as northern hemisphere "Winter Wonderland" type of legs like S20 Germany and S22 Switzerland

I think they will film ASAP once they have a cast ready. They will want to have one in the can. ;)

Why do you say that?  ???  That is def not what this says. Y'all are jumping to a lot of inaccurate conclusions.

If we film SOON, then we can be a mid season anytime Nov-onwards.

The only conflict I see right now for filming  is the Emmy's. Feel sure they want to be around for that.

The route could be a hybrid mix of S18 and S22 that I like for October filming. What about the Scandinavia "Winter Wonderland" theme type filming in fall like will be having a Northern Lights location, for example S10 Finland (which was indeed occured in summer) and a southern hemisphere spring legs like S18 Australia or S7 South Africa?

Am i the only one concerned for the fall filming? I'm worried that if we get TAR30 done by the end of September or October, and we end up premiering earlier in November ala TAR12, that our season will be EXTREMELY rushed :(

WRP has been doing this for 30 seasons. Have a little faith that they know how to do this?

Not too concerned about a tight timeframe, if TARC can go from filming to premiere in just over 1 month, surely the US editors can, too.

Just my thought but maybe because TARC raced mainly within Canada, they might can start preparing the episode even when the race was still on. So after the leg 1 finished filming, they can directly send the footage for editing. But TARUS can't do that because it's a race around the world.

MAYBE IF TARUS create a season of racing within US territory only, similar like TAR 8, it may happen. :)

I am fine with October filming schedule, Daylight Saving Time in Australia (most parts) starts in first Sunday of October.

They said the word "relatable" which means they're going back to basics I presume.  Fall filming means more opportunity for Southern hemisphere countries to be visited.

Due to filming being scheduled between September and January, I thought there's no possibility of the show airing any time before February, or at least late January. Of course this assumption might be wrong, they could theoretically film in September and air mid-October or whatever, but this thought isn't so stupid I think? :P

It's just that if they give such a wide time frame (4-5 months), they must be pretty certain CBS won't want TAR to air during that time. Or that's just what I think.

True Marionnette, this might be their chance to get back to February premiere and September premiere since the last season screwed all that up :)

Nope, Can be done pretty quick. 1-2 months. Airing depends on when they need us.

Why would it take much longer than TAR Canada? The internet is everywhere. Or if they use 1-2 day shipping, that's not a big deal or an overly significant expense.

I think we're completely fine tbh, 'cause if our baseline for "rushed season" is TAR12 then it can only mean good things
I'm baaaaaack!

I mean, if other international franchises have no problems with short turnaround time between filming and airing (and with, I assume, less people available in production to do the work than TARUS will have), then it should be no problem for TAR30, if it comes to that.
