TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Hooky:
For me, the main wish I have is for more unpredictability - I can usually tell when watching a given new episode which team will be last - even when I don't spoil myself!
Also, fewer "staged" tasks - tasks where production has to set up a huge carnival-like thing with tents and costumes and all. (Sorry, that's just the best way I can think of to describe it. An example would be TAR 16 Leg 5 - the whole leg took place in an empty field where a big battle scene was just set up! It wasn't even really there in the first place!) There has been way too much of this since TAR 14 in my view. I want to see real places and tasks, not fake ones that could just be set up in Los Angeles! We don't need to go all the way to China to set up a fake Chinatown! :lol:
(Note: I am only assuming that this has continued from TAR 17 to the present as I haven't watched those ones.)

RaceUntilWeDie:
Didn't know where to post this, but since it's some "wish" of mine, I guess it fits in here:
TAR should have more night legs, and stop purposely making HoO to have teams race in the daylight.
I don't know, seems like back then legs were tougher (obviously…), tough enough to have teams race until dusk. It's also an interesting feat to see whatever location they're at in both day and night. (Imagine they didn't make TAR20 racers wait until sunrise for their clue in Japan, that leg would've been beautiful.)
Just a fan of night legs :-[
