Ok I made a list of the type of teams that have won all the seasons if anyone is interested
I really feel like an all dating season wouldn't be such a good idea
The first thought that comes in my mind is how I didn't like TAR6 which had a bunch of terrible and/or boring couples lasting in my opinion. Even TAR7 that also had 5 couples lasting in the end I didn't like so much, even though some of them were okay
Also, TAR19 had a final 3 with only couples and I didn't like any of them
I find it more appropriate that they just make a regular season with balanced gender and a lot of variation in team relationships - they also need to make sure to cast people with personality and attitute

Father/Son, Siblings, Twins... I tend to more supportive to each other while adding a bit of tough love to be competitive... I think the idea of "in-law" teams is quite interesting in the mix, in a "family season" they could add another kind of relationship... or teams that don't have a solid relationship and are looking the race as a way to reconect to each other like Jeff&Luke from Aus1 and Andie&Jenna from TAR17... those were relationship interesting to watch.

I agree. Family doesn't necessarily have to be blood-related.

I agree with you guys, especially when they are classified as "Married Parents"... it adds a bit more than young married couples...

Well I don't. Not every married couple have that stable parents relationship, and not every dating couple have that bickering relationship. Also separated couples/parents' central storyline is their romance.
Anyway. An easy casting trick for a season of the Race would have each combination of MM/MF/FF and Friends/Family/Couple, and with 2 teams left over. And if they relegate those 2 teams to FF teams, they'd have 2 new records: most no. of FF teams in a season (5), and least no. of MF/Couples in one season (1).
Honestly, I do want to see a team of strangers (not a season of them, just one). Maybe they could meet naturally at a casting, or the producers could make them meet. I could totally see a MM/Friends team of strangers.

I believe Mark & Mallory are strangers to each other. ??? :knuckles:
georgiapeach:
They had at least met, done some charitable stuff I think. We all know just how well that turned out. "Strangers" goes against EVERYTHING that TAR has said about casting thru the years.....that this is a RELATIONSHIP show first and foremost.
