"filler" season because of the Writer's Strike and thus, does not really count to what the producers consider "canonical" and thus, ignored the season... the tasks seemed "stale" and "recycled" and they seemed to quickly fill the cast, with no balance.

The way I understand it...the feeling was that Season 13 was just too "nice". Not enough drama... :lol:
Oh please. :groan:

Really? Well, I can understand the lack of drama in terms of the fact that Nick & Starr tended to dominate the Race, but I actually thought Season 17 had a lot of nicer teams than Seaon 13.

I thought Kelly & Christy provided the drama. :lol:

Honestly, the teams on TAR 13 are dull and boring. The only interesting few personas i can remember was Tina and Kelly and Christy. The rest of the teams were forgettable. And i do remember Terence and Sarah being ultra competitive too.

I have to disagree with you about All Stars Dustin & Kandice, D&K didn't run a great leg during the final leg. Eric & Danielle ran a stronger leg in Hawaii in every aspect (which in fact was the bulk of the episode) and even if they had a bad cab (which is true) they failed the task (which frankly I hated that they let teams progress even if they didn't complete the task), sure they ran several legs better then Eric & Danielle (legs 5, 7,8,9, 10 and 12), and Eric & Danielle ran better legs in eps 1,2,3,4,11, 13). Leg 6 its truly impossible to judge how teams fast teams actually performed that days task, thinks to the long boat ride. If the boat ride took the same period of time for each trip, Eric & Danielle actually finished the days tasks faster then any team, but since I am sure that isn't the case its hard to judge, we do know that Dustin & Kandice took more then 35 minutes longer to complete then their boat partners.

I hope Toni & Dallas haunt you for the rest of your natural life....
But in all seriousness there is very little I like about this season. I found the Kelly & Christy and Nick & Starr feud childish. Terrance just annoyed me to no end, seriously he just bothered me, and not in anyway that is entertaining. Dandrew while entertaining were clearly clueless and I hate to see clueless people make it far in the race (but them in Russia was a hoot). I liked Nick & Starr, Ken & Tina, and Toni & Dallas, and really only one of those teams did I really love. I also have a special hatred for this season being the season with the least amount of driving for teams to do. And all of it in English speaking countries. Hatred for this. If it wasn't for the never ending equalizations of the Family Edition this would be in my opinion the worst seasons of TAR.
