The Amazing Race International Versions > TAR Canada

TARCanada 3 - Episode 12 LIVE FINALE Discussion September 23th!

<< < (6/9) > >>

NMC:
This is the first time since I started watching TAR, back when Season 14 was airing, that I'm actually not bothered whether I watch the episode or not.   ???

It just seemed like a lame, predictable Leg, and having to endure actually watching Gino & Jesse win would destroy me.  :'(  (:;)  So I think I'll just leave it, and look forward to TAR 27 tomorrow.  :hoot:

This Season went from being one I thought could compete with the best of the US Seasons, into one that I don't care if I ever watch again, which is such a shame because it has such an AMAZING cast!  :hearts:  (Gino & Jesse excluded of course)

naejae91:
Haven't watch the finale yet. But now review the final leg writeup, I can imagine that the finale was giving me the vibe of meh TAR26 finale, so maybe I'll just leave it and looking forward to TAR27.  :umn: :iok  Congratulations to Gino & Jesse anyway although I found them pretty boring and bland in general.

It's sad to see this season has so many potential at the start, but lost it's spark pretty quickly at the end of the race. I can say that TARCAN3 is the weakest season of the Canadian version.

Maanca:
Canada's equivalent to All-Stars 2014, I felt. Definitely not our best casting with a few teams keen on penalty-taking.

But at least we're getting another season, so this won't be the one they end it with.

Vitoko:
Woah. I did not expect to read such a hard criticism from this board.
My two cents...

So this is the third time an All Male team wins The Amazing Race Canada... but is the first time that the most likely team to win actually wins the race. In Season 1 the winners were saved twice by a NEL and in Season 2 everyone expected the winner team to be the one that won most of the previous legs... But this time we saw this coming, Gino&Jesse would argue with each other, get lost on their way to the next challenge or made dumb mistakes with their clues BUT would usually come out on the top.

This was a season filled with a rivalry between Gino&Jesse and Nick&Mat and we saw that through out the race until the final moments of the last leg. They were neck and neck and it finally came down to who was gonna find the skies first.

I see everyone saying this was a predictable and linear leg... maybe but I could still feel like it wasn't a sure win for Gino&Jesse. I even thought that Jesse and Mat would get stuck in the skies making way for Brent&Sean to pull ahead. Because the editing made it seem THAT close. I would even argue that Nick&Mat could've won if they were the ones to catch the green light at the beginning of the race.

I've been hoping for Gino&Jesse and Brent&Sean elimination from the beginning of the race. I would've prefered to see teams like Dana&Amanda or Hamilton&Michaela or Neil&Kristin. It baffles me that Simi&Ope or Brian&Cynthia made it as far as they did.

I just wish this race didn't have the amount of self inflicted penalties that it has. Or the cab stealing that made me go from "man, how in the world is Simi&Ope still in it" to hate everyone still in it except for Simi&Ope. Or the face off I'm a huge believer that the amazing race is a challenge against yourself and your own capabilities and it should never put two teams against each other. Sad part is that id didn't only happen twice during this season but it's probably gonna happen in the future considering that now has a name "FACE OFF" that is not even a road sign analogy but is also a terrible movie.

I think this was a great Race with really long feeling legs where half the time I would expect the Pitstop 3 clues earlier and the only thing hurting it is the boot order which is something you can't really complain when you still have someone to root for or against because that means at least one team made you feel something and that is a huge part of the enjoyment of The Amazing Race.

I agree with Vitoko...

At least I feel like they deserved it, unlike the Tims who got saved twice... Mickey and Pete were okay as the underdogs (I was actually happy because a hockey girls win would have been to predictable...)

I don't really like Gino and Jesse, they came off douchy and full of themselves, but they were the overall best team to win. I would have been happy with a nick and Matt win but heh... what ever I guess :P

Overall a good season, better than season 1, but worste than season 2

I'm happy for a season 4!!! Wonder what destination they will go
