The Amazing Race International Versions > TAR Australia
Anyone else surprised that leg 1 had an almost identical route to TAR Asia 4?

I am also at a loss that you can't seem to understand figurative phrase. I meant they were painted with a different picture (with different people). And you don't have to enumerate things to me. :tup:
Genius:

It just upset me. I would think that they wouldn't have to copy exact routes. I hope the rest of the season doesn't follow along this pattern.

Thanks. I knew that I had seen some of that stuff before. I don't really mind that they nearly copied a leg of TARA, I just wish they had nearly copied a better leg. I still don't know what counting money from a suitcase has to do culturally with Indonesia.
The good news is that I enjoyed most of the cast and the host did a good job.
Also, since Australia has only 2/3 the population of Canada, it still gives me hope of a TAR Canada someday.

And now, 8 years later, in 2019, TARCAN has more seasons than TARAus.
I have just started to watch TARAus1, almost right after TARA4, and I was quite stunned by the blatant copying and pasting of TARA4. However, considering the logistics involved, I can understand why the producers would do that.
toanglobal:
BUT TAR Australia have more international legs than Canadian's one
TAR AU 3 (ANZ) have less recycled tasks because it was home production by TV7 channel.
And don't forget the fact:UK with about 2.5 more inhabitants than Australia also should have our version despite the chance is slim because British viewers don't like taped program(s), as Survivor UK ended only after 2 seasons.
