TAR 16 - EP 10 "I Feel Like I’m in, Like, Sicily" (Shanghai 1)
Dånooky:
This has been a very crazy season both team and task-wise xD
chill_sd:
I just realized, with the episode still 13 days away, we might not see as many previews this week.
DrRox:
Leg 10 has TWO roadblocks........making noodles and making that dragon puzzle on DEC 18th.
Leg 10 11 has a speedbump (counting the golden buddhas), a detour (pork chops or dumplings) and one roadblock (fashion)...on Dec 19th according to the local insider.
Racers CANNOT have flour on their hands at the fashion RB from doing the noodles RB. They are on different days.......so the flour on the hands must come from doing the fashion RB AFTER the detour which is either pork chops or dumplings on the second Shanghai leg, Leg 11.
I think that CBS is mixing up events from both legs in the preview. There is the possibility that the local insider lied to us......but seems doubtful to me now.
Roadblock counts are Jet/Cord 4/4, Brent/Caitie 5/3, Louie/Michael 4/4, and Dan/Jordan 4/3.
Edited to correct a typo. Thanks uycocoa.

Does this help? BTW..Is this a NEL episode???

YES. Thank you. I'm coming out of my self-imposed posting exile from RFF on weekdays to agree with this. If TAR wants to save money, reducing the number of detours is a good option (especially if there's only one person last leg). That said, I still think there should be at least one roadblock each leg. Perhaps a 7-7 split next season? (It could allow for the introduction of a U-turn like device that forces the other team member to complete the roadblock.)
everbloom:
I don't think the extra RB is needed because there was no detour in Leg 1. So that more or less compensates.
