Would another Family Edition ever work?
RaceUntilWeDie:
I think another Family Edition could work if they used returning teams? :colors
Returning teams as in siblings/father-daughter/mother-daughter/etc. but with 2 more family members. That way each family could be likable as they have 2 family members we have already come to love!
Mandoli:
I'm kind of late to the party, but I could see it working if they tweaked the format a little bit.
Instead of four-player teams, keep it to two-player. And while I liked the idea of the younger kids racing, perhaps the age limit could still be lowered. Not to pre-teen years, but 16/17 at the least. That way they could still do some of the challenges and could do a little more. It seemed as though the later challenges in the season weren't child-friendly.
And make it so that they go around the world, too. Other than that... Summer filming.
georgiapeach:
I love the idea of a sorta "Family Edition" again with some tweaks.
Stick to the basic TAR format, teams of two.
There are tons of family combos we have not/or only rarely seen.
InLaw variations
Aunts Or Uncles +Nieces or Nephews
Parent/Child (always good)
Adoptive Siblings
Cousins
Married Couples w/some sort of interesting story
The variations are endless, so a season made of family members would be fine by me!

I wouldn't mind teams like these. Gives things a little flavor, and it's as stale as your usual "parent/sibling" or "married couple" teams. No offense to them, obviously...
APABLD:
Just bumping this old thread to see if anyone has any new opinions.
I still think a Family Edition would work, either the regular format with 11 pairs of racers, or a revised version of the 8th season: teams of 3 so that we don't have such a large cast, and an age limit of 13-15+ for more difficult challenges and possibly more international travel.
