Jumba
Cowboys
Globetrotters
Gary/Mal????
Amanda/Kris
Jaime/Cara
Mel/Mike

Mike White was not recruited:
--- Quote ---So where did the idea to do the show come from?
I'm a not-so-closeted reality TV fan, a traitor to my own. I think I've watched probably every Survivor and Amazing Race—I'm a weird reality fanatic, I guess. During the strike I was watching my usual shows because I couldn't work, and at some point I was like, "What the crap! I should just go on The Amazing Race." I actually just made a video, I didn't try to pull any strings, I just made a video with somebody besides my dad and sent it in.

Though in fairness we do all need to remember that some teams have turned down offers, it is possible that some from season 13 (or other teams that have mentioned) choose not to do it, or had reasons they couldn't.
mswood:
^^ No but the team was recruited as the producers didn't want the original team that applied. Most people consider that recruited, when production puts its input into what teams are there.

Hey guys I'm new to RFF and I decided to start an account because of all this All-Star talk after lurking for a while. I'll just break down what I think of each individual supposedlly selected 'All star' teams or whatever they are being called.
Kynt and Vyxsin- I very much like this choice. I really like them in TAR12 and I'll be rooting for them to go far this time! Go Goths, I love you :) :jumpy:
Amanda and Kris- I don't know why this team was chosen really. They didn't seem to have much personality and while they looked like a strong team they got eliminated by the U-Turn. There are at least 10 teams I'd want back over them!
Jamie and Cara- Excellent choice! I liked Cara and didn't like Jamie in their season. TAR14 was my first season and these 2 made ir very memorable for me. :wohoo:
Kisha and Jen- The first major meltdown I remember involved these 2. I didn't like them near the start of the race really but really liked them in their later legs. I was rooting for them in the Luke and Margie vs Kisha and Jen feuds. Good choice.
Margie and Luke- I knew they would be selected because they made good Tv. Plain excellent choice to return! :colors
Mark and Micheal- God knows why this horrible team was chosen to return. They were boring, cheated and they were just plain boring. Get off my TV!
Mel and Mike- I thought they were okay but really they don't deserbe to return over some other previous teams in my opinion. Think of it, we could have had Nate and Jen!
Steve and Linda- They were the second team out in TAR14. Why have themo ver Ken and Tina, Nate and Jen, Terrence and Sarah, Toni and Dallas, Nick and Starr, Meghan and Cheyne, Sam and Dan... the list gores on and on..
The Globetrotters- Made the dumbest move in TAR IMO... I don't like them and would rather see Meghan and Cheyne or Sam and Dan back.
Zev and Justin- I like them and think they could go far this timez! Look out for this team!
Jet and Cord- I can understand why they were brought back. They were one of the highlights of AR16 for me. I personally didn't really like them but many did. Good choice to return.
Gary and Mallory- I liked them but would much rather Brook and Claire to reutrn. I can like Gary and Mallory though so I don't really have an issue with them being brought back.
Micheal and Kevin- I think they brought the wrong sort of fans to TAR. I like Micheal an lot but my hatred of Kevin is more than my love of Micheal. Okay to come back but I want them to get the boot early.
I really think that TAR should have included teams from TAR13 like Ken and Tina, Toni and Dallas and Terreence and Sarah over teams like Mel and Mike, Mark and Micheal and Steve and Linda....
calibound234:
Can the teams that were asked but then denied, reveal themselves? Even if its not until the teams are officialy revealed by CBS..
There are some teams that I want to make sure they got asked, because if they didnt it makes me wonder..why these other teams.. ha
Steve and Linda were a fighting couple...
Kris and Amanda only lasted like 4 episodes X_X so they might have ended up being a fighting couple
