The Amazing Race Asia 3 Spoilers/Speculation
topaz:
my speculation was right! According to the intro clips shown on TARA 3, they'd went to Africa alright after they'd raced from Asia, probably we're gonna see it on the last 2 legs on this season. As shown on the clips itself as I closely looked at it, they're probably going to the countries of Kenya and Tanzania in East Africa where I'd saw a dhow boat and jumping Massai guy there, and then surely the 3 remaining teams will go back to Asia to race for the grand price (I'm guessing going back to Thailand).
And also, they'd even went to Middle East, most probably they went to either in Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain or Oman because I'd saw an Arab man holding his camel while traveling in the middle of an Arabian desert on that intro clip as well.
So, this is what I'd knew for now and please post your comments and evidence on it. :waves:
georgiapeach:
well, most of us haven't seen the episode yet so can't comment...but we have the first promo clips pretty well dissected
here: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,16845.0.html and in the spoilers upstream, so you might want to look there first? I have to say that that sounds like the TAR 13 clip though...
Alan:
Thanks for posting! About intros, not too sure because they reused some old clips. But apparently an article did say they did go to Europe, the HK article.
Anyways from Allan Wu at the start line, 11 legs, 7 elimination legs. 3 NELS.

Hmm actually he didn't say how many NELS, but since the last leg is NEL, there should be 3.
I'm thinking TBCs are counted as 1 leg itself? :duno:

'Amazing Race Asia' Season 3 on AXN
Localization the way forward for the Sony-owned network

HONG KONG -- AXN on Friday launched the third season of "Amazing Race Asia" in Hong Kong, counting on local relevance to compel Asian viewers to watch, said Jack Lim, vp advertising sales and marketing at parent Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Shot in Asia and Europe, the series featured contestants from Hong Kong, Thailand, India, Korea, Singapore and the Philippines. The Asian promotional tour of Season 3 began in Hong Kong, after Bangkok, the original starting point, was ruled out because of political turmoil in the Thai capital.
"The performance of (boxing reality series) 'Contender Asia' and previous seasons of 'Amazing Race Asia' has surpassed expectations," Lim told The Hollywood Reporter.
Ratings in Asian markets for these two shows were higher than the ratings for the original U.S. versions when they were shown in Asia, "proving that original programming is the way forward for the network," he said.
In addition to running on AXN, the two previous seasons of "Amazing Race Asia" were syndicated to China, Malaysia and New Zealand. "Contender Asia" also has a broad appeal outside Asia in Sweden and Australia, Lim said.
Apart from adapting for Asia "Contender" and "Amazing Race" for AXN, SPE has been producing local content, including the animated TV movie "LaMB" for Animax.
