Penultimate legs

<< < (6/10) > >>

Marionete:
Looking solely at the leg design, TAR17's was amazing IMO. Of course it wasn't interesting to watch at all due to Nick/Vicki being so far behind, but the leg itself was great.

--- Quote from: SamualDude on January 16, 2014, 12:04:45 AM ---The two absolute best penultimate legs in my opinion are TAR 5 and TAR 6.

TAR 5 had a simply amazing leg with everyone afraid that Colin & Christie would catch up to them. The showdown at the Roadblock was amazing and it was so heartbreaking seeing Linda & Karen be eliminated on the edge of making Amazing Race history.

TAR 6 was also amazing, A pretty good detour, Some great locations in the Terra Cotta Warriors Museum and Mount Hua which was the simply amazing roadblock and was one of those tasks that truly deserves a switchback ending the leg with a really strong team in Hayden & Aaron being eliminated.

^ What he said. I agree on BOTH instances, where the intensity of TAR 5's El Nido in the Philippines caused teams to literally fight for their lives. This was especially tiring on the amazing Bowling Mums, and Colin & Christie who fell far behind. I literally had tears in my eyes when I knew that Linda & Karen were not going to make Amazing Race history. All teams honestly deserved to be in the final leg because I loved them all so much, especially Colin & Christie and the Bowling Mums.

As for TAR 6 however, well... I will be honest, whether anyone likes it or not. This eleventh leg WAS and IS my favourite leg of the entire show, EVER. Everything was right with this leg, the scenery (I was surprised that the best episode could feature in China and not Europe), the battles between the teams to get into the finals, but mainly because of the tasks - like that Roadblock at Mt Hua which I hope gets a 'Switchback' one day. The visit to the Terra Cotta Warriors Museum simplifies why I love this season so god damn much, and watching Adam & Rebecca sneak from last to first was intense. I was very upset when Hayden & Aaron were eliminated as I wanted them to win, but what the hell. I was rooting for Kris & Jon at that point.

No other season since has done it this well since.

My favourite L11, would have 22's. (Well, I loved the season, how couldn't love Leg 11  :funny:). The big task and Titantic tasks, made it!

I actually enjoyed TAR5's! Yes, The Bowling Mons elimination made me sad, but I LOVED the flags searching task!

My least favoriute finale, would have to be TAR4's. Yes, it was Australia, but it was so BORING!
