Here's hoping they shake things up with the Race at least one more time before the franchise dies.

I thought Seasons 13 & 14 were worse. Is that bad? :duno:

ETA: I am really not being sarcastic. I don't really see how TAR 15 is any worse than TAR 13/14.

puddin:
TAR14's Cheese Hill and the Bungee off the Verzasca Dam rocked! I loved Tina and Kens Fast Forward ( TAR13) in New Zealand, it was a lot better than the racecar by far.  I admit the challenges are not all that this season but to me its about the contestants not really the challenges although it was sort of sucky that they used the tallest building in the world to get a clue? no rappelling no jumping?   ... :wtf:  ?

michael:
To me the only season that I felt had none of the "amazing" feeling of the Amazing Race was season 13. I just didn't like it and found it extremely boring.

puddin:
We all see it different, I thought season 12 was boring. I've said it before and I'll sa it again, TAR has not had the same feel since season 7 but I really liked the cast of season 9, I never understood the season 9 hate?

This I agree with. Season 7 was when something felt amiss. Even if I hated the TAR 6 outcome, it still had that good ol' TAR feel to it. Or maybe it's cause I used to watch not knowing 'spoilers' existed and ever since, the thrill of watching was more of, "Will the spoiler come true or not?". :funny:
