Given the cast that resulted in, I hope different criteria get used this time around.

Haha, that's a pretty good sum up of season 11. :lol:

This is my list of teams that MIGHT be on...
TAR 12
Ronald and Christina (Strong, competitive team with a great story)
Kynt and Vyxsin (Very consistent and not to mention unique racers)
TAR 13
Ken and Tina (Strong team who worked out their marriage problems on the race. It'd be nice to see them race with their "new" marriage.)
Toni and Dallas (Consistent team, out due to a stupid mistake and deserve another chance.)
TAR 14
Margie and Luke (Competitive, popular team that came pretty close to winning)
Mel and Mike (Strong team that will bring humour to the show)
TAR 15
Brian and Ericka (Zebra love! They'll bring some life to the show.)
Maria and Tiffany (Liar poker players that did pretty well and might have another chance at this)
TAR 16
Jet and Cord (Super strong team that came so close to the million)
Carol and Brandy (Drama, drama)
TAR 17
Brook and Claire (Strong, consistent team with loads of positive energy)
Gary and Mallory (Energizer bunny!!!)
Other possible teams
Azaria and Hendekea (Strong team that got out too early) - TAR 12
Terence and Sarah (Consistent team with interesting personalities) - TAR 13
Nick and Starr or Meghan and Cheyne (Winners of many legs and the whole race, but I believe they'll cast one or the other, IF they do cast them. I kinda hope that they won't cast any winners.) - TAR 13, TAR 15
Connor and Jonathan (Generally strong and super funny guys, they didn't have a good placing at the end but I hope that placings will not be the main factor in deciding the teams.) - TAR 17

I think Azaria & Hendekea don't have interesting enough stories but I wouldn't mind seeing them if they get in the Race again.
I wouldn't mind Mel & Mike being on instead of Amanda & Kris. But if they put in a funny team, I think they'll put in Team Glee (Connor & Jonathan), whom I did consider as a possible team for the All-Stars edition.
I'd like to see Maria & Tiffany get another shot but I put Zev & Justin in because I wanted them in more than the poker players. I doubt they'll put in Nick & Starr or even Megan & Cheyne, although I liked the latter team.

I agree with almost all of these choices. Props to you for remembering Azaria and Hendekea. :tup:
I would put in Amanda and Kris instead of Mel and Mike though, I do not consider them a strong team. This would leave us with only one MM team but nobody seems to care about those.
I do kind of share the sentiment that they should not cast any winners as it would be king of boring to have a team win twice. I tend to think that Meghan and Cheyne would win if they came back, although it may be that the other teams that year were so strong that they made them look better.
I would not be surprised if Connor and Jonathan come back especially if Brooke and Claire win.
