Promoting the show is almost non-existent especially dissappointing with this stellar cast.

Reminds me of how CBS is treating TAR US as of late :( They've lost two of their big sponsors, Air Canada and Petro Canada, but it doesn't seem like the leg design has suffered so far.
Next week is the Canada leg I was most excited for, but the one after that I expect could be the weakest link of the domestic legs. Been there many times growing up and it's going to have to be a solid episode to impress me.

I know ;_____;
It sucks because this cast is easily the best TAR cast in years. Not just TAR Canada, but TAR as a whole. Best cast since TAR25 honestly, because there's no duds at all.

I do kinda wonder how this version would have stacked up against the others if it had been fully international. They would have had to start from the 1st season, though, then we would never have had these "This is Amazing Race CANADA. It has to stay in our beautiful country!" people.
If you ever listen to production talk about the international legs, it's clear they put a lot of heart and care into designing them. Whereas some US legs in the last few years I feel are just legs for the sake of having 12 legs (one example, 26 Amsterdam. A couple of tasks stereotypical of that city, Pit Stop).
I could say similar about the casting, too.

I agree it would have had to been International right from the start. I think they cornered themselves in S1 by promoting it as a LOVE LETTER to CANADA. If I remember correctly, there were far more people complaining about it not leaving Canada. Now it looks like they're stuck and can't go back on it.
