No LA after 19 seasons, I'm okay with that even if they're still in California. Ironic that the last time this situation happened was TAR 11, which also had a finale in San Francisco.

Just want to say to all the detectives that the work you do every season is incredible. I've been reading this site for a couple of years, so it was so much fun to join and to watch the season play out.

I gotta say, from my perspective on the ground, it looks like it'll be a good finale

Variety of tasks (physical challenge with kayaks, scary element with some type of base jumping in the Bay, riddles for clues, final memory (maybe?) task), cool venues and vistas, it seemed that team placement was shifting around quite a bit throughout the leg, and the craziness with the unpaid taxi drivers at the final destination!

Should be fun to see how things shake out on the show!

The way u put it sounds way better than what I thought. I hope the taxi payment is like a team goes to the finish line and Phil tells them they have to go pay their taxi, then the 2nd team comes and he says the same thing then the third team comes and wins by default LOL

San Francisco did serve as the finish in TAR 16. However, TAR 16 started in LA, so this is the first time since season 11 that LA and southern CA are neither the start nor the finish.

Thank you TexasLady.

It's kinda sad that TAR filming has stopped for another season...

Let's have fun watching it however, when it comes to air!  :conf:

I hope we go back to filming to the 2-season per year... I hope the viewership is so monumental that we get renewed for more seasons.

That would be awesome.  The past few seasons, real life has kept me from playing along with you all during the filimg.  It would be nice to have a chance to do it again.

Hoping to wait for renewal next May if we could get back to two season(s) per year if any of new reality show flops.

It would be historic for TAR to go back to the 2-season fliming per year. I agree with you Marionete, tracking the Race unfold twice a year has been a joy to do and having it once only per year means there's something lacking.

It might not be a shared opinion.. This season has casted big names, popular names, semi-famous names, if I was in casting I would have completely casted full notable people. I would haved dropped the Lifeguards, Twins, Debaters and Ring Girls in lieu of more popular people. Surprised they got Indy, Skiers, NBA Players to do this and so did Team Jody who just finished BB 19. They could have casted Celebrity Chefs, Former Survivor Contestants preferably fan favorites, Talk Show Hosts, Singers, Olympic Athletes, Actors/Actresses, Writers and Astronauts We are in dire need of viewers to save TAR.

This mix gives me a similar vibe to Season 23's cast. 3 1/2 teams connected to pro sports (the half being Tim. He was a baseball player, but I'd guess because his backstory was his ex, we never heard about it).

Yup. I loved tracking teams 3 times a year. I love the thrill of it even though I'm not great at the US seasons.

It's fall/autumn right now in Europe. Winter doesn't officially start in December.

Regarding time of year, is this the first time they have filmed in October?

My recollection is that the Spring season was usually filmed between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and the Fall season was filmed in June/July.

Well, there goes the dream of visiting Australia, New Zealand or Fiji.  :groan: They can reserve that continent for next season if ever that happens which I do really hope we get another season. On the bright side a Thailand visit not limited to Bankok or Phuket is great, happy for Chiang Mai to be visited. Hong Kong again, why? it could have been Taiwan but if it means a night leg, I will have no problem. Night legs on Asian cities are  :conf: Here's to hoping the Pro Skiers & Indy 500 make the Final 3 and don't end up like Tiffany & Krista and Matt & Redmond.

That one thing Hong Kong is not on the original route for this season. Australia was included for the original route, but Hong Kong was a last-minute replacement as an alternate penultimate leg.

As the original route that could include Australia, there is no direct flights between Melbourne and San Francisco.
