Things TAR shouldn't have done

I think TAR shouldn't cast 'wacky' and 'good TV' teams over likeable teams. I think Season 15 was the last time I actually liked more than 2 or 3 teams.

I think Phil shouldn't have changed his narration voice.

Apart from that, I don't have any complaints at all, so they must be doing most stuff right!

Season 17 had SO MANY LIKABLE TEAMS! :lol3:

Zack.:
Tasks that require teams to wear silly, non-culturally relevant costumes (e.g. Panto cow in Kazakhstan, naked running in Novosibirsk, kangaroos in Broken Hill). There are far easier ways to elicit cheap thrills (most of which I hate anyway, but I digress).

The pizza in TAR6  :gaah:.

I find those great! Along with the Caviar TAR5, and the soup in TAR6 too.

I think TAR should have never left lots of legs with no self-driving. Teams have to be prepared to read maps and navigate by themselves. That is a BASIC tool for racing, I think, and there's some times when teams don't drive for legs and legs... That's not good. I want more dramma!

SoYoung:
bunching after a hard roadblock.

one of it is during Leg 2 (I'm not sure) of All Stars. D/K got the roadblock fast and some were left behind and they end up bunching in the airport.

starrynight:
Another one, when they've put stupid stereotypical greeters to represent places instead of people who just look more normal.  As a British person I was cringing at the guy in the bowler hat, or the one in armour.  It's just silly.
