If you look at the stats page, she is huge compared to everyone else!
Anyway...
I totally agree with Neobie, if you watch the first season you see so many cultural and intersting clues.  It doesn't have the standard clue or cluebox.  However, in my opinion The Amazing Race is getting better once again.  We got a fresh new start, and it is a lot more entertaining than our past "Microseasons".  We also have the great more cultural sounding theme song.  But we do need to have better cultural tasks.  And I really love saying cultural! 
 
I do not think TAR got ridiculous until Season 12 and 13.  It has forever bothered me that they would even consider 11 legs, unless they have 2 double legs!  In all stars Joe and Bill and Eric and Danielle were behind for 3 legs or so.  So it wasn't too controlled yet in my opinion!  The one thing I do want to see in this season is for it to be less bunched.  Season thirteen was so bunched that it always seemed like a footrace or a taxi race.  Not a self-driving race because there was hardly any self-driving at all in that season.  It just so happens that leg 4 was my favorite because it had self-driving!

We could also have long distance train, car, and bus rides that are 300 miles long.  Or say train rides that were 1,000 miles long.  Wasn't there a drive in season 4 that was 500 miles long?

But after all of this, I do think that the race is improving after two very annoying seasons of crazy Americans that are being dragged around the world.

I must say I have always keenly followed the race and each one brought something to the table. I must say I agree with puddin the fire stopped at 7. 8,9 sucked 10 was ok but predictable. 11 was much better. 12 I thought we were on the right track. 13 bummed me out. 14 has started lighting a fire for me?

Does anyone else feel these teams for 14 are better than the past few seasons?

I dont agree with peach on the season 1 thing ! haha It wasnt that early. I want a season with everything on the table who gives a crap about money. THEY DO! But there are ways to do things and look into the culture of each place and make great legs around it.

GOOD TEAMS
HARDER CLUES (SEASON 1)
GOOD LOCATIONS
GOOD TASKS
MORE PHIL...

LOL

In my opinion "Go to the smoke that thunders to recieve the next clue is really cool

Instead of "Drive to Niagra Falls to get the next clue"
