Seems to me the editors focused on #team green's unlucky choice to go for the fast forward. It llokd to me they used the same location as TAR 2 did for the same tasks, and a team would have landed at Copacabana Beach.

There is only one hang gliding place in Rio. That is Sao Conrado. The take-off place is on the NE side of Pedra de Gavea and the landing place is on the beach at Sao Conrado. It is way to far to fly to Copacabana....4-5 miles. In TAR 2 teams landed in front of the condos in Sao Conrado. I would think on this one, they might have landed in front of the Sheraton/Intercontinental Hotel, just to get close to the taxi stand. Then the FF winner would have taken a taxi to Arporador to the pit stpp.

Negatives:
- Phil not introducing the Teams at the Start. This was the thing I hated most about S26, but excused it due to the format, with half the Teams being Blind Dates. There is absolutely NO REASON for this to carry over to a normal Season.  :groan:
- Phil once again NOT announcing all Team Placements at the Pitstop.  :gaah:
- A Fast Forward on the 1st Leg, when there's an EP at stake?  :groan:
- ENOUGH WITH THE HASHTAGS.  Or a least make them meaningful to the Team. E.g #MotherSon rather then #TeamAlabama.  Like someone else already said, it's not a gimmick Season.
- Spreading out the Helicopter departure times. I mean we could have had at least two Teams depart at a time. It really killed the suspense. I LOVE when all the teams are bunched together, and if this Leg had have had a RB, and then the Detour, with ALL teams bunched together for the whole, (or most of), the Leg, it would have been Amazing.  (TAR 18 Leg 2 Perfected this with all 11 Teams at the Detour at the same time) Stupid Helicopter sign up.  (:;)
- Once again a predictable Leg Winner.  :groan:  And I could almost predict that they'll give the EP too one of the F/F teams, most likely the Cheerleaders. (Providing they survive that long) - This is solely based on my imagination of them forming an alliance.  :lol:
- Kelly & Shevonnes Elimination. This team could have been great. They really need another NEL on Leg 1. Its been 8 Seasons since the last one.  :'(
- Finally the whole Leg design was disastrous.  Like I said earlier, there should've been a RB AND a Detour.  Producers need to take a good long look at TAR Aus, and Canada's first Legs.  They're able to throw in loads of tasks in Leg 1. I know it's all down to the Budget, and this and that, but come on, if other Versions can do it, WHY CAN'T CBS DO THE SAME!!!!

THIS..!!!  )-**

Before the race started, i don't really like the TMZ team, but after watching the premiere, they are nicer than i expected. I wish it was NEL because they seem fun & could be our trainwreck team this season lol..


fossil-racer:
I wish the Active Route Marker was harder like how tall was Christ the Redeemer.
Detour was great.
They could have brought some elements over from the Season 26 premiere like Uturn and 90 minutes.

The Hang gliding jump ramp is located on Pedra Bonita.

Everything about this episode feels rushed. I have no opinion about most of the teams rn. :lol:

Same here... all I know is that Justin cries a lot. Tiffany&Krista's backpacks look really heavy. Is hard for me to understand chacattack and that Tmz girls get bully at work.

--- End quote ---

I don't think it's that the girls get bullied at work.  It's more getting teased and picked on in a friendly manner rather than getting bullied or picked on maliciously.  It might be hard to understand if you've never worked at a place where this happens, but it's fairly common in places I've worked.  When people are liked by others, they get friendly ribbing.  (For example, if they were in my office they would have come back to work to find slide puzzles all over their desks.)  When people are not liked, they get ignored.  I don't watch TMZ, but I've caught episodes from time to time and it seems like that type of work place.
