Joe & Avi would've been a fun polarizing team. They were way too many couples on the season. It's for good reason that no team was picked for the real All-Stars (S11).

Kendra wasn't even that awful aside from her Africa comments... she was just either really boring or annoying.
And Jonathan & Victoria's consistently disgusting edit felt VERY VERY REWARDING with their elim.
Avi & Joe were so irrelevant lol, wtf @ them being potentially fun? All I remember is "New York Jews in Iceland" and then they went and got eliminated.
Also Kris & Jon were supposed to return but Eric & Danielle got cast instead apparently so yeah.

I think the most cringing part of that season apart from Jonathan & Victoria and Kendra's insensitive comments was the Budapest portion of leg 6. I don't think I have ever had a negative personal feeling about an episode until that aired. Easily one of the grossest episodes I have ever seen and scared me enough to avoid eating Hungarian food or any red soups (tomato soup :barf) because of that, not to mention the blood drinking Fast Forward.
gamerfan09:
The Hungary double-episode was actually one of the best of the season???
My Leg/Episode Rank would be:
Amazing:
1. Leg 8 (France → Ethiopia)
2. Leg 2 (Iceland → Norway)
3. Leg 6 (Germany → Hungary)
4. Leg 5 (Senegal → Germany)
5. Leg 10 (Sri Lanka → China) [TAR6 probably has some of my favorite China legs and idek why]
6. Leg 11 (China)
Great:
7. Leg 7 (Hungary → France) [Wine RB <3]
8. Leg 4 (Sweden → Senegal) [Liked the tasks but the fishing Detour was boring tbh]
Good:
9. Leg 9 (Ethiopia → Sri Lanka) [Swimming Pool and DT aside, the RB was so out of place and meh]
Meh:
10. Leg 3 (Norway → Sweden) [Hay Bales and Shots aside IKEA is not a good place to do a Detour in]
Bad:
11. Leg 1 (USA → Iceland)
12. Leg 12 (China → USA)

The Spicy Soup RB was absolutely disgusting, but also one of the most hilarious moments ever on TAR.
Most especially when Freddy vomited back into his soup and still had to eat it much to the horror of a crying Kendra.
Jonathan & Victoria are interesting. While the shoving is certainly, actually, disgusting, they would otherwise be a hilarious bickering couple. They both dished out as much as they got. Then you couple that with Jonathan being randomly nice to African kids and talking about the "President of Synagogue." They'd be All-Star material if it weren't for that horrible moment at the Pit Stop. Oh well.

I have never had tomato soup or any soup of that color ever since. I nearly vomited when I saw that borscht Detour in season 13. And yeah, Jonathan & Victoria made for a roller coast ride, but I simply wasn't a fan of that ride. The shoving, the yelling at each other, and Victoria looking like Jonathan's monkey sidekick than wife - those were moments I wish I could un-see from that season.
Keepcopz:
Watch the first four episodes of Season 3 and lol it's really delivered.
I can't decide whether the twin hunt was meant to be funny or pathetic, but it mostly SOOO over the top. :lol: Aaron & Arriane (or whatever her name is :lol:) is PSYCHOTIC and them bitching about Derek & Drew the entire leg is so freaking... umm... Weird? :lol: :lol: Like, the twin aren't doing anything to them so I kind of get confused that they were really this vindictive. (Also noted that the twin actually placed 11th on the first leg so lol at all the teams targetting them. <33) :lol:
Gotta say the cast is really impressive and each elimination is like a loss of gem. I also like Derek & Drew for handling the situation so classy. (Unlike *cough*accidentalalliance*cough*) And Flo is starting to show her potential with her bitching at Zach for forgetting her on the boat. LOL. I WANT MORE OF THIS. Teri & Ian is also amazing on this 10x more than 11. So this is a really thrill ride so far!
PS. OMG at Heather & Eve's dramatic penalty exit. LOL. Kind of sad that they have to go since I think they have potential to go really far. (Good at navigation, very manipulative and always place on the front of the pack) </3
