Worst Season
Jobby:
Season 5 revived TAR franchise. One of the best seasons ever. Brought back memorable teams like Colin and Christie, Bowling Moms and Charla and Schmirna.. great rivalry, AWESOME locations (72,000 MILES??) and really great suspense... how Allison and Donny won the first leg and got eliminated, loads of airport drama (Charla and Mirna VS everyone else) and Kami and Karli ultimate underdogs survival until Leg 9.. God knows how they did it till today. :lol:
Worst Season for me would be TAR 9. It was so bad I was not looking forward to even watching it every leg thanks to the cast. The locations were great... but the cast... BJ and Tyler... <///////////////////3
EDIT: TAR 16 gave me the same feeling too. And this time, the locations were boring. It's like Singapore's visited but I'm totalleh unexcited about it. Really really bad cast, Carol and Brandy.. Mike and Louie... Brent and Caite.. Ewww.

Wow. I'm not alone saying that seasons 15/16 were the worst ever.
15 was just boring. Boring contestants, tasks, and locations (some were interesting (Prague) but not well used in my opinion).
But 16. It was worst that boring. I wasen't even able to watch legs after the Seychelles (except the finale). I couldn't stand Brent & Caite :eww, Louie & Michael :eww, Jordan & Jeff :eww and (particularly) Jet & Cord :eww (if only the first leg of 18 was an elimination :groan:). Dan & Jordan, Carol & Brandy and Steve & Allie were OK, but not more. The locations were one of the worst in all TAR history. Tasks were sooo easy.
A chance that season 17 came after 16 because TAR was starting to loose a fan.
No wonder they didnt won the Emmy that year.
And I'm with Peach for season 13. Beside Nick & Starr winning 7/11 legs, it's one of my favourites. Interesting contestants, locations and the tasks were REALLY hard.
For best routes, I would vote for TAR 6 - Iceland, Budapest, Ethiopia, Corsica, Sri Lanka, Mount Hua (personally, it saved that race because, in my opinion, the contestants were boring-all of the final 6 were couples!) - and TAR 10 - China's Great Wall, Mongolia, Halong Bay, Kuwait, Mauritius, Madagascar, Morocco, Spain (in addition to an interesting relationship between different contestants - backbacks, D/K)
kiki:
Season 13 was boring. Seasons 15 and 16 was so and so. Season 4 I hated the winners.
As for seasons 6 and 9 I actually liked them a lot especially the locations in 6, some of the best in the history of TAR, who can forget Lalibella in Ethiopia?
inomu:
I must say season 11. Teams were quite boring and Dustin & Kandice didn't win :'( Also South American legs were quite uninteresting.
Season 6 and 9 are my favourites, does that make me weird? :lol: Also I loved the locations of season 16 but Caite and Dan/Jordan win made that season stupid.
Prophet:
I like 6 and 9! But that might still make you weird. :lol:
