TARAus 1 Episode 12 Episode Discussion (Singapore/Australia) *SPOILERS*
Kamineko:
Congratulations to Tyler & Nathan for winning the race!!! :hearts:
And congratulations to Sam & Renae for breaking the "Express Pass" curse!! :hearts:
Jeff & Luke, great job for making it to the end! :tup:
By the way, do you all realize that the standing in the finale looks like in TARA 4? :lol:
1st Place: All-male team
2nd Place: All-female team
3rd Place: Parent-child team
Telepek:
Well, Tyler&Nathan won. Congratulations.
But about the finale:
Best. Finale. Ever. Exactly what i thought the perfect finale should be - not based on physical strengh or knowing the terrain, but also luck have something to tell here. Basically one more mistake on the flyer, one more door at the prison, one more durian may cost one team the 1st place.
The detour was also good - because it wasn't obvious which tasks could be easier and quicker to do, it depended from the physical form from the teams. And the roadblock - I laughed so hard when every team had mistaken the polish flag with indonesian. And every team were suprised because ther was not enough flag poles :D! And again, perfect montage with the race to the pit stop! My heart was beating so fast during that :D. Damn i'm sensitive...
But after all, it was a good season. Better that american 17 and 18 [18 season was good only because of the stars]. It had some great moments, but also some things need's to be improved [like more fast forwards, yields or u-turn's]. And i want Grant Bowler to stay.
That's all, i'm out.

I couldn't disagree more. Luck challenges have NO, absolutely NO business being in a final leg.
Find the right fruit.
Pick the right flyer.
Find the right prison cell.
All of these were luck challenges, and the surfers lucked out the most on every single one. Let Nathan & Tyler "switch luck" with the girls at the Ferris wheel, and suddenly they're the ones on the second flight. Suddenly they lose one hour by switching places, purely due to luck.
I don't mind that the surfers won, because out of the three teams they ran the best race. But I still hate the luck challenges.
Best Loser:
Two finish lines from Amazing Race Asia were visited in this one episode. I was hoping that someone would be like Adrian with the flags, but nope.
One Amazing Race curse that hasn't been broken is that no team I've been rooting for in the finale has won. Not once. :(
Polaroid:
That was an awesome finale. I'm happy for Tyler & Nathan. They deserved to win this leg and ultimately the race. :js: The editing in this leg was great. The airtime of each of the teams felt pretty even.
I didn't think that Singapore Flyer task was fair... or the jail task. Teams could have been stuck there for ages. :nut: The final roadblock was super difficult. I'm surprised everybody got it. :lol:
Congrats to all teams! :conf:
