Well, out of all the teams, they're most likely to play the "villain" and you do need a team like that. Though I wonder if they're one of the alternates/not high up on the wishlist.

They can easily get Justin to do, or even Jim or Max. :duno:
Art and JJ are just not that memorable to me  :groan:

I think that the Extreme Roadblock is like a Roadblock U-Turn thingy, forcing the other member of another team to do that Roadblock.

I would definitely prefer Justin & Diana, Jim & Misti and Max & Katie over Art & JJ, no question. But I think each of them have a likeability factor Art & JJ don't have. (I love Max & Katie, I like Jim & Misti and I don't mind Justin & Diana lol) So, easier to paint Art & JJ as the villains. But yes, I do think they're the most random, unexpected choice of the TAR alums.

I would hope they didn't cast Art & JJ just because they think they will clash with Rachel. Because I really doubt that will happen.

Not really excited with the TAR teams (well except Colin & Christie, but I haven't watched them in their original season :P)

But I'm excited to see how the teams from Survivor and BB perform... Will add more impressions after seeing how they race :cheer:

westward route  :luvya: (unless they do a great circle loosely based around the Pacific Rim which would also be cool?)

I choose not to comment on this twist or cast. I thought the worst for TAR 26 and 29 and they turned out to be decent to great so...that.

Spec for the extreme roadblock:

Maybe like some said was a roadblock that both member have to do
OR
Maybe it's kind of like a U-Turn, in which after you open your clue and know what the task is, you can force one member of another team to complete that specific task. Exemple: If the task is very physical, a team got use the extreme roadblock on another and force the weaker member to do it. That would create trouble for teams that are not well balance.

Occam's Razor:

So that "new" Extreme-RB twist sounds like the Norwegian edition's Handicap, a.k.a. the "Speed Bump" for Tanner/Josh.

Overall I'm pleased with the teams. We got some interesting ones that I don't know how to feel about (Brett and Chris mainly), but no one I'm really disappointed about being cast.

Rupert/Laura are someone I wanted to see on TAR for a very long time. Realistically I don't see them going too far at all but I'm just glad they're actually on.

They brought art and jj back to fight with Rachel again.

Instead of Brendan fighting back with them, they will have to deal with Elissa.  :hfive:

Why Rupert is always wearing tie dye shirt everywhere he goes? 😅 😅

In Rupert's season of Survivor they only had 1 pair of clothes. The producers chose a tie dye shirt for him because they wanted to portray his character as a hippy. He became famous for his tie dye so he was forced to wear tie dye in every season, reunion and interviews. They're also forced to wear tie dye in TAR. If you met Rupert he would unlikely be wearing much tie dye in real life except at reality events.

Its one of the most iconic pieces of clothing in Survivor history, might as well wear it on TAR :)

Only commenting on the Survivor teams because I don't really watch Big Brother (and only did a few seasons of TAR, I'm sorry!)

I've never liked Corinne at all. Her meanness never comes off as entertaining or clever, the way that you'd get from people like Parvati or Courtney Yates, but it's just sort of "I'll choose the lowest blow possible and pass that off as a personality trait." The less screen time we get from her, the better. Eliza is a good enough tradeoff that I'll probably still root for them, unless she winds up being terrible and whiny, in which case I'll probably just be disappointed.

Rupert and Laura... egh. I understand the people that hate them, but I also understand the people that love them. Rupert can come off as overly sanctimonious or full of himself, but I think he's a genuine guy that just doesn't have the social skills to understand how he's being perceived sometimes - and the same definitely goes for Laura to a much more extreme degree. I think they're great people in real life, but I definitely see them being targeted and outmatched here, and they'll probably get a lot of negative attention that they don't deserve. It might also go the opposite way and they get a ton of positive attention that they don't necessarily deserve, which will only tick the haters off more. It's really hard to say, but all in all I hope for the best for them.

Bret and Chris would be a really interesting dynamic, I think. The two of them didn't appear super close on the show, but I really liked both of them separately (which is saying something, since the older males almost always tend to be my least favorite contestants after the way-overplayed "hag" archetype) and I'll be interested to see how well they can work together. Chris at least was a pretty solid athlete, and I don't remember Bret winning much, but he wasn't a slouch, either. I could see them either going really far or going out early.

They were in fact the dominant team in season 5 until the Ox roadblock in the second Philippines leg made them the last eliminated team. It is a season not to be missed. It is available via Amazon Prime, CBS All Access and on DVD through the Amazon on demand platform.
