TAR 16 Start Date?
michael:
I wish that it would start filming soon and I hope that when it does we get a spoiled final three of three F/F teams. One of each major hair colour, red heads, blondes, and brunettes.
puddin:
thanks to TheCinera, even more confirmation that TAR16 is a GO!
--- Quote from: TheCinera on November 03, 2009, 12:37:27 PM ---CBS Consumer Products announced that six TV shows will get video game treatment within the next year: "Survivor," "The Amazing Race," "Criminal Minds," "Diagnosis Murder," "Ghost Whisperer" and "Hollywood Squares."
"Diagnosis Murder" ... really? It's been off the air since 2001. Is this for retirement-home-based PC gamers, perhaps? Why not "Murder She Wrote" on Wii? Or an edition of "Rock Band" with "Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman"?
There's been plenty of fine videogames based on movies ("Star Wars," "GoldenEye," "LOTR"...). But has their ever been a great one based off a TV show? I'm not saying their has not been. I just can't think of one and I'm honestly curious. Because it seems to me that since TV shows are less male-teen targeted and have less costly action than their more expensive Hollywood counterparts that the finances and creative would combine to inherently make it a low-end product. So why ever buy one?
Details from the release:
The Amazing Race (Ludia Inc.)
Get ready for around-the-world competition with the video game based on the eight-time Emmy® award-winning television series The Amazing Race where team players split up in pairs for a remarkable journey across exotic locations in a race against time. Players will face frantic challenges and tasks as they navigate through detours, roadblocks and other unpredictable game elements from the show. Working together strategically throughout the game is essential as each team tries to discover hidden clues that are crucial to getting them to the Pit Stop first -- and one step closer to ultimate victory at the check-in mat. This video game will be launched throughout North America across multiple platforms in tandem with the show's 16th season.

A TAR game? I wonder how they'll pull it off. *waits for the excitement from other posters*
:yess: TAR 16! 13 episodes / 2 hour premiere would be nice. And PLEASE go to Africa. ;D
apskip:
If I were a betting person, I would come to the conclusion that AR16 should be finished before Christmas in order to be available to telecast in March through May after the Winter Olympics finish. So, let's work backward from there.
If the race finished on Dec. 23 and were 21 or 22 days long, it would be starting Dec. 1 or 2. That means that it should leave sometime in the next 4 weeks. Let's have a watch on where Phil is and is scheduled to be, as that is one of the few reliable indicators on when an Amazing Race could start.

I'm thinking filming would start either before November 15th, or soon after December 6th; otherwise early January (TAR 2; TAR 4).
