TAR 21 Premiere Discussion! Hosted by TAR 19's Cindy and Ernie!

We didn't talk about the 2 roadblock set-up yet! This season started with just 2 roadblocks, no detours. Usually each episode has 1 roadblock and 1 detour. On our season, we had 1 roadblock but then a task (the dragon boat racing). I guess with so many teams, it's better to focus on introducing us to the teams rather than having to explain the detour. The last time they offered a detour on leg 1 was Season 18, but everyone picked the same task. Only Amanda & Kris had to do the other detour since they automatically were given a u-turn because they completed the 1st task last.
Do you like this 2 Roadblock format better than the Roadblock-Detour combo? At least for the first episode...

I loved it! I think we shouldn't have a Detour on the first leg , really. But it shouldn't be ONLY 1 roadblock too! So it was perfect to get the race started!!

I wonder if a Detour-RB was just too time consuming to show? I like the RB-RB format, I just wish that we had more time to see everything.
What do you all think about eating tasks in general?? Even culturally semi-relevant ones?
Polaroid:
I don't mind the 2 roadblocks instead of 1 roadblock and 1 detour. I just thought the episode should have been longer because everything felt rushed, even more than usual for first episodes. I guess the editing was building up to the exciting pit stop finish.

Hi Ernie & Cindy! :waves:
I just LOVE how you guys are still involved in the TAR community. I always love reading your tweets and opinions on the current race! Always nice to see fans of the show win it and still enjoy their experience even after the show has aired!! Thank you guys for sharing your experience of being on the race with us all! Ernie and Cindy love :hrt:
My question for you guys: With multiple teams walking straight past the lady with the abacus this leg, I wondered if it's actually quite difficult to see and find the clueboxes/Phil/cluegivers as they make it appear really obvious on TV. I know when you're racing hard you're tired and hungry etc, so does that come into play a lot when you're paying attention to detail? On your season, did you see very many markers around the locations and clues?? :) Sorry to bombard you guys with so much, but I just adore you two! :lol:
