TAR 19 Locations/Destinations **Spoilers**
knomad:
I'm also a long time lurker, but first time poster. Just registered to say this:
I got my issue of TV guide in the mail yesterday, and the quote from TV Guide is correct. It is the Sept. 19 - 25 "special issue" with Simon Cowell on the cover. It's previewing the new fall shows. I just looked for the article quoted, and it is there. The (short) article about TAR is on page 91 (no page number on that page, but the next page is numbered 92). It is in the weekend highlights section, on the opposite page from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition with a big picture of Ty Pennington and Michelle Obama.
The TAR article has a picture of Ethan and Jenna at the top.
The paragraph quoted is the second paragraph, and yes, it says TUNISIA!
"These 11 teams - which include Survivor alums Ethan Zohn and Jenna Morasca, a pair of professional snowboarders and two male flight attendants - all had at least one thing in common: Nobody could handle the heat and humidity they encountered in Tunisia."
TV Guide may have got it wrong, but the quote is correct. Hope this helps.

I was half dead last night and did not fully absorb this...
But that cinches it....we know that the ONLY places that had all 11 teams were the start, Taiwan and Yogyakarta. After that we are down to 9 ...
SO some one clearly confused INDONESIA with TUNISIA, and there is no missing leg.
Thanks for sharing this with us Tullfan, GREAT find!! And thanks to knomad as well! :jam:
tullfan:
Thanks peach!
The TV Guide could certainly be wrong even though it is accurate about all the other countries that it mentions. It certainly is humid and hot in Indonesia. It is hot in Tunisia but I don't know about it being humid. For the second leg in Tunisia, the TAR 1 racers were racing in the middle of nowhere in the Sahara desert, LOL!
