It feels more like another second and third chances season than an all-stars. One thing we have missing in the recent HD seasons that the '00 all-stars had are fully-developed characters. That is what made the first all-stars a memorable hit. I don't feel the same way with the '10 all-stars. Some of them have reached the final 4 and I still don't understand their team dynamic. The editors didn't let us get more in-depth with them. Yet, some of those teams don't even deserve a spot in all-stars... *cough*JessicaJohn*cough*

Because they are threatening to sue CBS, they confuse Express Pass with Magic charms. :funny:

Sarcasm on the first part or no? :(

The comment is sarcasm. To be honest, I don't really know why. If they wanted a controversial team, they could have their picks from last season's final four.

That's why we have The A$$animals in this season. :lol:
What confuses me more is why Jessica & John are in this season. The only thing they are known for is making a fool out of themselves with the Express Pass. Even Chuck & Wynona could replace these two.

This confuses me too. Maybe CBS didn't tell us the whole title in the preview.
It should be "The Amazing Race All Stars vs All Star Idiots".
They wanted to use "The Amazing Race - Idiots Abroad" - but it was taken.

With all the threepeaters (except Mallory <3), I'm actually rooting for Jessica and John.
I rewatched TAR 22 recently and they weren't rly that bad tbh

For me it's not how were dumb and didn't use their Express Pass, it's how John was so arrogant that I really didn't like and it was shown through the Express Pass.

But you do have to remember this is a so-called ALL-STARS season which means bringing back monumental competitors, not just likable teams. Likability of teams seems to be the ONLY thing most viewers care about of TAR these days which saddens me.
The '00 All-Stars featured a cast who did anything to get ahead (Uchenna begging to pay the taxi fare in Ft. Lauderdale, Mirna's airport antics, Rob & Amber's notoriousness throughout TAR7), mixed with competitive drives (BQ's beating the FF Intersection, David & Mary being the only team to nullify the last place 30-min penalty, JVJ's bionic sprinting throughout their time), and memorable surprises from some teams (Joe & Bill surviving a day behind until Alaska, Oswald & Danny going shopping :funny:, Teri & Ian coming in weak, but a fire under their bellies).
The only word that comes to mind for the '10 "all-stars" is 'fan base'. What is Caroline & Jennifer best known for during TAR22? Being unmemorable country band singers who have a FAN BASE.......... What is Brenchel best known for during TAR20? The arguing and whining, and their Big Brother FAN BASE........... What is Joey & Meghan best known for during TAR22? Their YouTube and sometimes ignorant FAN BASE.......... Now what is Jessica & John best known for during TAR22? Making a fool out of themselves by not using the Express Pass and teaming up with the YouTubers that triggered their FAN BASE because of Joey & Meghan. :groan:
To me, this "all-stars" is basically a popularity contest, not a competitive contest.
