Do you agree with the choices?

The list:
BEST LOL MOMENT: Swiss Cheese Task in First Leg of TAR14 - I agree that it was incredibly funny, but I prefer Charla and Mirna funny moments
BEST OVERACHIEVING MOMENT: Charla Carries 55 lbs of Beef on her back, TAR5 - good choice
BEST DISPLAY OF KARMA: Uchenna & Joyce shave their heads for Fast Forward... then win TAR7 - perfection
BEST FINISH: Chris & Alex Pass Tara & Wil to win TAR2 - I would have picked TAR3, but whatever
BEST NSFW MOMENT: Underwear Running Road Block in Russia, TAR14 - great choice
BEST BREAKDOWN: Mika is Afraid of a Water Slide in Dubai, TAR15 (I'd have chosen Flo in the Vietnam.) - absolutelyBEST COMEBACK: Jet & Cord Last to First - like this choice
BEST OMG MOMENT: Claire's Watermelon Smash, TAR17 - again, perfection
MOST HEART WRENCHING MOMENT: Luke Loses the Million Dollars - WTF? I can think of a thousand better choices, Like Millie in India, the orphanage in South Africa.
BEST HISTORY MAKING MOMENT: Nat & Kat Are the First All-Female Team to Win TAR, TAR17 - there's not a lot of "history making" moments, so I guess it's a good choice

Dom:
Not sure I'd agree with most of these. Here would be my list:

Best LOL Moment (appealing to the kids with this category?!): Either Dandrew attempting the marching detour in S13 or Adam stuck floating in a diving suit in Corsica, S6!

Best Overachieving Moment: Maybe Margie and Luke winning Leg 1 Season 14. Nobody expected it at the time but we now know they were always a very very strong team!

Best Display of Karma: I'd go with Brandy & Carol being U-turned and eliminated after their constant awful treatment of Caite in S17.

Best Finish: CBS got this one right

Best NSFW Moment: Either CBSs suggestion or the beach of Rio in S18 where seemingly everyone had to have their rear ends blurred out!

Best Breakdown: Either Mika or Victoria running to the pit stop in Berlin, S6. But this might be a sensitive one what with the tyrannical husband and clearly neither of them being quite right in the head..

Best Comeback: Yeah probably Jet and Cord in Penang, S17. Although the detours were severely imbalanced so they got lucky there!

Best OMG Moment: Hands down, Brian and Greg flipping their car in S7 and injuring the sound guy. I think thats the only time they've broken the fourth wall, maybe also when Margie fainted in S14.But CBS has to choose the watermelon, any opportunity to milk their first viral video!

Most Heartwrenching Moment: Only time I've ever shed a tear watching the race: Gus trying to hold it together at the slave prison in Senegal.

Historical Moment: I guess Nat & Kat, theres not really anything else to choose from is there?

dryedmangoez:
BEST LOL MOMENT: Swiss Cheese Task in First Leg of TAR14 - That was definitely hilarious, but there's also the Basket Bikes in TAR3 Vietnam for one.

BEST OVERACHIEVING MOMENT: Charla Carries 55 lbs of Beef on her back, TAR5 - Excellent choice.

BEST DISPLAY OF KARMA: Uchenna & Joyce shave their heads for Fast Forward... then win TAR7 - I don't know that this was even good karma per se.  The best displays of karma on TAR are when teams eventually get screwed over by their own foolishness/bitchiness. lol

BEST FINISH: Chris & Alex Pass Tara & Wil to win TAR2 - Definitely, there hasn't been a closer finish yet, save for TAR6.

BEST NSFW MOMENT: Underwear Running Road Block in Russia, TAR14 - The only real NSFW moment had to be Jon doing the final Road Block nude in TAR4. lol

BEST BREAKDOWN: Mika is Afraid of a Water Slide in Dubai, TAR15 - Like I said, I'd have chosen Flo. Any Flo moment really.  There's also the hilarious Weaver breakdown when they go crazy in the middle of the night in TAR8.

BEST COMEBACK: Jet & Cord Last to First, TAR16 - I guess.  But with the uselessness of the Speed Bump, and the poor leg designs in the more recent seasons, maybe a pre-TARAS last to first? If any?

BEST OMG MOMENT: Claire's Watermelon Smash, TAR17 - Good choice. Brian & Greg's jeep flipping over is another one too domel.  And staying with TAR7, Gretchen busting her head open underground is one too. 

Thinking about Meredith and Gretchen, that's actually a much better Best Comeback choice.  She busted her head open AND they were handed the first non-elim penality but survived all the way to Final 4.

MOST HEART WRENCHING MOMENT: Luke Loses the Million Dollars, TAR14 - Definitely not heart wrenching for me! lol Gus at the Door of No Return in TAR6, Charla & Mirna or the Gaghan's eliminations for me.

BEST HISTORY MAKING MOMENT: Nat & Kat Are the First All-Female Team to Win TAR, TAR17 - I guess, sorry to Chip & Kim being the first African-American team and first married couple to win TAR. lol

Best Loser:
BEST LOL MOMENT: Swiss Cheese Task in First Leg of TAR14 Ken & Gerard... I don't know, punting.
BEST OVERACHIEVING MOMENT: Charla Carries 55 lbs of Beef on her back, TAR5 I can't think of anything right now
BEST DISPLAY OF KARMA: Uchenna & Joyce shave their heads for Fast Forward... then win TAR7 I can't think of anything else, I'm tired
BEST FINISH: Chris & Alex Pass Tara & Wil to win TAR2 Yes
BEST NSFW MOMENT: Underwear Running Road Block in Russia, TAR14 Yeah, Jon from season 4
BEST BREAKDOWN: Mika is Afraid of a Water Slide in Dubai, TAR15 It should've been Colin. There're plenty of things to choose from: oxen, jail, bricks...
BEST COMEBACK: Jet & Cord Last to First, TAR16 Brian & Greg flip their car and then beat the least liked team in a footrace?
BEST OMG MOMENT: Claire's Watermelon Smash, TAR17 But the car flipping can't be on the list twice. I guess I'm just listing options
MOST HEART WRENCHING MOMENT: Luke Loses the Million Dollars, TAR14 I've got to take someone else's answer again and say the House of Slaves in season 6
BEST HISTORY MAKING MOMENT: Nat & Kat Are the First All-Female Team to Win TAR, TAR17 Why not Rob & Brennan being the first winners?
