Your Biggest TAR Pet Peeves?
Platrium:
I just remembered something. :umn:
Remember back in the earlier seasons when the NELs were on the latter half of the season? I just hate those! :gaah: They're annoying. :groan: They eliminate the first 5 to 6 teams in a row, and then they have a final 5 NEL, final 4 NEL, and a final 3 NEL. :wall: :hammer :crazy: A final 3 NEL. :ahat:
I like TAR18's pre-determined elimination points. It's spread out in a way that the first half of the season had 2 non-elimination points, then they reserve the last NEL on the F6. :conf: :colors :trampb: It's not like the usual season's F5 or F4 where there's a 50-50 chance of guessing where the NEL is. :whoop: #SuspenseKiller
Marionete:
^ OMG I was always so annoyed by that watching older seasons!! They would ALWAYS have a F4 or F5 NEL, if not both. Like, it was always so predictable and not interesting at all, was it done to lower budget?.. Because that's the only logical reason I can think of and it's still pretty dumb. :umn:
Those F3 NELs (IIRC they had those 2 or 3 times) were just out of this world :furious: How can they expect the racers and viewers NOT to guess that? And what's the point, to have another (fake) finale leg? Sometimes these weren't even done in the US (TAR9), so the NEL was so obvious..
It's just so :tantrum

So I'm guessing TAR15 ticked you off. :iok

In a way... there was an F11 NEL though. :umn: I was only able to watch TAR15 a few years after it first aired, so since I had spoilers, I think there was a different feeling compared to watching TAR on time.
