Most underrated season?

(1/6) > >>

starrynight:
I was looking at season 19 over the last few days and I can't believe how underrated it is.  Good route, some variety of interesting locations, interesting tasks both mental and physical, a varied cast with some good characters and not many who I would say are truly annoying, a finale with tasks that were far better than the previous season, also drama mainly through mistakes people made (losing things, mental mistakes, bad navigation) rather than too many tedious arguments.  Also plenty of self-driving which put the race in the racers own hands much of the time.

Declive:
Yeah , i still think Season 19 sucks... we're having less teams winning legs and that sucks...

starrynight:
I don't think it's just about who finally wins the legs though, there was still some competition in many to the legs, it wasn't just processional among all the racers.  Most of the drama tends to be about who gets eliminated in this show anyway, not who wins legs.

As the intro phrase goes "who will be eliminated.....NEXT?"  :D

This so much. Another thing that's annoying is when people say Andy & Tommy winning so many legs made the season predictable. Except half the time they weren't the first team to arrive and they were also eliminated.



I think the most underrated season is Season 1. Based on the first couple episodes, yes it's not too great, but after that it picks up.
Another one I think is underrated is Season 13. I don't really have a reason other than it isn't a horrible season.

I enjoyed season 19 mainly because of Marcus.  :lol:
It visited good countries, but the fact It stayed 2 legs in 90% of them, turns me off.
Season 13 is indeed underrated. The race in general wasn't bad. And Sarah was hilarious. People were only hating it because of Nick & Star's first winnings.
