The consolation is we won't ever need to see Dave & Connor on the Race ever again. :lol: The bad thing, legitimate All-Stars who were on TAR24 were wasted on the worst season ever.

Not that there were even that many. :groan:

I agree. That's why TAR24 really shouldn't have been called All-Stars and instead "Redemption" or some other gimmick like that.
If TARUB didn't exist, I think the legitimate All-Stars of those who were cast on either TAR18 or TAR24 would be:
Gary & Mallory
Flight Time & Big Easy
Kent & Vyxsin
Jet & Cord
Ron & Christina
Margie & Luke
Brendon & Rachel
Natalie & Nadiya
Leo & Jamal
Dave & Connor
Bopper & Mark
+ Jamie & Cara or Kisha & Jen
And of course there are still plenty of All-Star worthy teams post-TAR18 who could've easily filled TAR24's cast.
Which is why I think TAR11 is still the only REAL All-Star season :yess:
There were definitely some omissions, but it was still a great cast full of great choices.
pre-TAR11 All-Stars > post-TAR11 All-Stars.
The Amazing Race: Ultimate should have more pre-TAR12 teams than post-TAR12, if ever that were to happen. :hoot:
Bookworm:
^ The only teams that were robbed that I can think of were Tim & Marie, Brook & Claire (but they would both probably decline), and Zev & Justin.
dryedmangoez:
For a 3-peat, I think Kent & Vyxsin would be a better choice than Zev & Justin though, especially as an 'All-Star'
Zev & Justin are the perfect "Unfinished Business" team
Jobby:
Not a Kent and Vyxsin fan but I honestly think they've got more business than the Globbies in TAR 24. God knows why the producers love them so much too. Just like how I never know why James get to play Survivor thrice. -_-
