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

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.

"The last eliminated team" is wrong. They came in 2nd overall, after winning six legs.

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'd be curious about these teams skill set for racing on TAR. I'm just not sure that their strengths on Survivor fit well on TAR.
Similarly, two BB teams, but not all of them have done well. So there must be something that carries over. But Rachel becomes the third or fifth Racer to return with a different team mate, only one of which worked well. (Season 11 All - Stars Eric and Danielle.)

I was thinking in terms of the 12 leg format and not their 13 leg format. I just remember they were way behind the other remaining legs and  the late arrival in Manila; and not thinking about the leg(s) in Canada and the tactic of checking their backpacks in on the final flight and leaving them at the airport.
Which makes this season a redemption race for them.

Well, I am surprised that they didn't cast Charla & Mirna, Brook & Claire, Kym & Alli, or Dustin & Kandice.

Tried on Amazon Prime, but it's only available in US. :(
Maybe someone can give an alternative for non-US viewers? :)

am I only one who love Extreme Roadblock? I mean, that makes all teams to play smart in first rew legs. For example : don't make themselves to be threat or strong so they can avoid that new twist

So my thoughts on the teams representing the Amazing Race. Colin & Christie are a very welcome surprise, Tyler & Korey as well as Becca & Floyd fit well here. Art & JJ I mean if they wanted a villainous MM team are fine I guess though I would of preferred an FF team. Leo & Jamal while I liked in their last season I'm not overly happy to have them as a threepeat team.

I hope Colin & Christie do really well same with Becca & Floyd.

Colin & Christie. Pre-TAR 11 Racers. What a great move by the casting department.  :cheer:

They should have threw in Charla and Mirna to confront Colin and Christie, if they cast Art and JJ because of Rachel  :groan:

I would much rather see Brook & Claire and Kym & Alli back in a true All-Stars season.

As for Dustin & Kandice, I loved them so much and thought that they were badly robbed in TAR11, but I'd rather see them back ONLY on a season completely comprised of three-peaters.

For the record, “Plow” was one side of a detour, not a roadblock. Part of the problem was that Christie wasn’t helping.

I don't think anyone was 'cut' per se.  .



Pretty sure some were.

Wait, I actually do vaguely remember Eliza because I did watch Vanuatu.

Natalie & Nadiya would've definitely made sense because of the Survivor connection esp since we have Rachel bridging TAR and BB.

Now, the consensus seems to be that this is a pretty solid cast. So I wonder what kinds of cuts were made (as were rumored here the last couple of days).

I wonder who was cut


I don't think anyone was 'cut' per se.  Several of these teams seem like last minute calls to players waiting by the phone (Leo/Jamal, Rupert/Laurel).  Production is always scrambling at the last minute to fill slots for these 'allstar theme' seasons.  For a recent example, look at Survivor Game Changers.

Dan and Jessie and Ian and Frank and Day and Bridgette (who?) and James and Corey (lol) and Paul and Josh and and Caleb and Tai were never seriously considered.  And the teams of Jan/Brit and Cor/Eliza just seem to be slapped together randomly.

Hey all!

Caleb/Tai were definitely considered. More than considered even. They were told they were on until the Thursday before sequester started. They were cut very last minute. Keith and Wes from Survivor were also cut.

Would have taken Keith/Wes rather than Chris/Bret. :'(
