I remember Phil saying somewhere that they didn't like one of those African countries from 10, can't remember if it was Mauritius or Madagascar. The leg turned into a nightmare for production.

So whichever it was will probably never be visited again.

Ahead of Thursday’s 29th season finale (10 p.m. on CBS), Keoghan and “Amazing Race” executive producers/co-creators Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri reveal the one country they said no to visiting (Qatar, the government was too disorganized), the one Keoghan wouldn’t want to go back to (Madagascar, the crew got sick with a stomach bug) and other tales from behind the scenes.

10's leg there sucked so much that it would be better to visit Comoros instead.

As much as I love TAR 10, I do agree that the Mauritius leg there was weak, I don't want another visit to Mauritius. The one visit was enough.
I find the Madagascar leg weaker

You have to give the Madagascar leg credit for hosting the first ever Intersection, and where the first MFE took place. I would not want a visit to Madagascar again as well.

I'm wondering what took out Border Patrol??? Did not expect them to be 1st boots.

I don't like them but not only were the statistically the strongest out of the 5 returning teams in terms of average placement (2.25) in their previous season (even over Colin & Christie!), they were tied for 5th in average leg placement for ALL TARUS teams over 30 seasons! I didn't even realise how high their average was in season 20 (probably because Rachel & Dave overshadowed them)

Not to stray too far off topic, but I have to say...
The Madagascar Leg might have been weak, but I thought the episode itself was amazing. The editing during the ep was so good as we kept flipping back and forth between the hilarious bed cushions Detour and the face eating Fast Forward. The tension and hilarity was so fun. lol And then the drama at the Pit Stop from the MFE to the FF teams not placing first.

Phil didn’t like Madagascar.

I don’t think TAR will EVER return there

Well, it looks like what they said to Brendon & Rachel in Tanzania came back to bite them. "You couldn't follow your shadow on a bright sunny day."

It'd be hilarious if Art/JJ lost ten rounds of the Head-to-Head to each of the other teams.

I like this route so far, like Laos 🇱🇦 is good, but please go to more places that are unvisited like Bucharest, Israel... I feel like this route is going bad and I hope it doesn't cause I really loved last season

Better to have Asia at the start of the route, because when it's at the end they tend to repeat the same few countries all the time...China.

Must be a budget thing somehow.

I'm wondering which European countries get visits this time around. They have a trend of visiting undervisited European countries in the last 2 Seasons. We've had Greece in S.29, Iceland, Belgium, Czech Republic in S.30

Will Finland finally get a Pit Stop? I hope so.
Hungary (Just imagine the Hungarian Spicy Soup Roadblock, it could be a Switchback) 
Ireland, (a task with animals involved similar to S.12, for sure Colin will bust a fuse)
Sweden (Has not had a full visit since S.17, S.25 does not count)
Romania
Lithuania
Croatia (Really nice place, homage to Game of Thrones)

New countries to visit, Latvia, Bulgaria, Bosnia & Herzegovina

Yes, it was Leg 3, the one where Tammy & Victor meltdown happens, which placed them in 8th.

Ya but another  leg.. Coffins aren’t the only thing In Romania lol. If we have to deal with multiple Tokyo legs why can’t we deal with a couple more Romanian legs. And they don’t even need to go to Bucharest, there are many other cities they can visit

Well they didn’t spend the whole leg in Bucharest- just the gymnastics Roadblock, before taking the train to Brasov

Except the original post said "unvisited like Bucharest", which is factually untrue.
