Championship Series--Wish List

<< < (2/9) > >>

Ryan:
I'm not a Freddy/Kendra fan at. all. Chip and Kim were sweet, didn't mind them winning over freaking Colin/Christie, but would much rather have seen Kami/Karli (such a hot mess, loved them), or the bowling moms take that season.

Uchenna/Joyce? Nice people, happy they beat Rob/Amber, not particularly exciting. Not to mention how pissed I was when the boring hybrid team of Eric/Danielle beat out the hilarious ChaChaChas and Beauties in first All-Stars.


--- Quote from: gamerfan09 on January 30, 2014, 01:04:13 AM ---IMO, a lot of the winners for me are bland and/or annoying and boring.
I wouldn't really be excited to see all of them race again tbh :P

Loved the teams you mentioned, I agree, a lot of winners I wouldn't want to see back, which is why I would rather see this kind of show as a "Summer Series" in between regular TAR seasons (hard logistically, but they have no shortage of money for this show nowadays to have a backup host/camera crew travel with the winners during an off-month for the rest.) That way it isn't groan inducing to waste a regular season on them and just kind of an "oh, this is fun to watch while I wait for the next season.."

If I had to choose, I'd go with...

Tammy/Victor
Meghan/Cheyne
Ernie/Cindy (one of my FAVORITE champs, such a funny couple)
Kisha/Jen
Nick/Starr
Rachel/Dave (just to see how they'd do against the past champs/easily the villains of the season)
Jason/Amy
TK/Rachel (Still together?)
Chris/Alex (Older dudes by now surely, but I feel like if any real early team would do it, they would.)
Nat/Kat (love these ladies!)
And as a last team/fun twist, two of the 4 Linz family kids? But if not, I'd go with Dan/Jordan, I didn't like them in the beginning, but they got more likeable.

NMC:
Although this is a fantastic idea on paper, I can't see it being all that great on screen, simply due to most of the winners were by far the least unique teams among their respective competitors. 
Don't get me wrong, there have been some great teams to have won but that's only around 5 or 6 teams out of 22 seasons! (Excluding S8)

Here's my list, the first group are the teams I really liked, and the second are those that I disliked but would probably return.

BJ & Tyler - Loved these guys, and they should have been back for the first All Stars.
Uchenna & Joyce - Again loved these two.
Chip & Kim - Really liked this couple as well and would love to see them return.
Nat & Kat - Great F/F winners, though Brook & Claire deserved it more.
Kisha & Jen - Proved EVERYONE wrong when put in a season with Cowboys, Margie & Luke & Globes.
Josh & Brent - Underdogs that should have a 2nd chance to show they're not a one trick pony, although they probably are! Lol

Dave & Rachel - Just to see if they're still as good as first time around.
Meghan & Cheyne - Same reason as above.
Tammy & Victor
Dan & Jordan
TK & Rachel

Very true on the screen factor - I suppose these types of topics are more for fun speculation than getting anyone's realistic expectations up. But since other reality shows have had champs return or square off, this made sense to have a bit of fun with :)

I liked BJ and Tyler too, far more than Eric/Jeremy - they had a ton of fun on the race, which is the most important part.

I think champion teams would target Dave/Rachel as much as possible just out of "fear", but might soon realize that every Amazing Race is different and even champs like that are prone to make mistakes.

I would rather see a 2nd/3rd place redemption season (that way we can have Brook & Clare back

Belle Book:
I actually did a Winner's Edition fanfic!  I had Rob & Brennan from Season 1, Chris & Alex from Season 2, Uchenna & Joyce from Season 7, B.J. & Tyler from Season 9, Tyler & James from Season 10, T.K. & Rachel from Season 12, Nick & Starr from Season 13, Tammy & Victor from Season 14, Megan & Cheyne from Season 15, Nat & Kat from Season 17 and Kisha & Jen from Season 18 (this was before Ernie & Cindy won their season).  So if I had to do it over again, I'd probably get rid of Rob & Brennan and Tyler & James and replace them with Ernie & Cindy and Jason & Amy.  Incidentally, in the fanfic I wrote, Nat & Kat won for the second time.
