Would another Family Edition ever work?
BourkieBoy:
I'd think to see another Family Edition! Here are my reqiurements:
10 teams of four (2 parent racer and 2 child racers)
Age limit of 13+
Harder tasks
and...
INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL!
dryedmangoez:
Cast six families of 4, make them think it's the same format as TAR8. But then at the Starting Line, shock the families by forcing them to split up into teams of 2, a total of 12 teams.
Yes? No?
But during the Race, use voting U-Turns or Intersections and Double Battles/Face Offs to try and break up possible family alliances that may form and to ensure that final 4 or 3 are all different families. It'll be bad if two of the final 3 spots are one family, worse if the final 4 are only two families, you know? lol

I'm sorry, but sounds like a TERRIBLE idea! If u have kids in the families, how r u going to going to split them up? I don't think this would work and if it did, It wouldn't be received well by the home viewers.
TARUSAFan:
It would work if only there were 2 racers.

That was the problem. Having kids as young as 8 kinda forced them to water down the tasks and destinations.
Something like, say, flying 10 hours to carry heavy things through the streets of Bangladesh (theoretical scenario., not an actual reference) would take too much of a physical toll on them - hence the confinement to North America. Most tasks on The Amazing Race aren't for kids.
