Updating this while it's fresh.
Leg 4: B+
The 3 B+'s could've been A's or A-'s.
Leg 1 had a messy editing at the beginning, while also looking crammed.
Leg 3 had a boring start.
Leg 4 had a dull end.
They were still great episodes though, which is why B+ is what I think of those episodes. :hrt:
Marionete:
Leg 4 is like a C- for me.

I wasn't ever going to do this because I didn't wanna do it without some sort of grading system. I'll just think about how much I liked the tasks and if the teams provided enough entertainment/drama :lol:
TAR 28
Leg 01: B+ Show contentCool Detour and Roadblock in the same first leg boosts this episode by a LOT. And somehow the teams were well-developed--I think that's because of the short opening scene--which dragged this episode down a bit for me.
Leg 02: A- Show contentBetter Detour but the Roadblock was pretty straightforward. Thankfully, there was enough entertainment from the teams and suspense provided by Marty & Hagan and Darius & Cameron. Only a LITTLE better than Leg 1.
Leg 03: B+ Show contentOK Detour and I actually really loved the Roadblock. The first half of this episode is a flat B or even B-, but the second half of the episode helped boost it to a B+ :hearts: Favorite race to the finish in a while between Zach & Rachel and Darius & Cameron.
Leg 04: B- Show contentThe most balanced Detour so far and a Roadblock that requires both mental and physical strength. That's good--but the teams really messed it up for me with the ridiculous helping :( Annnd then production had to stick that train ride to France at the end
Leg 05: C Show contentThis leg was so boring. I don't think I watched the entirety of it yet because it was so boring.
Leg 06: C+ Show contentAwesome theater task that wasn't finished in 2 minutes by every single team. OK Detour, boring Roadblock.
Leg 07: A Show contentReally good Detour with relevant tasks--balanced as a bonus! I don't usually like dance challenges but this one was fun--way better than dancing on the wall like in Season 27 :res: Teams delivered and I can't find anything to complain about, other than the elimination.
Leg 08: B Show contentOK Detour, cool Roadblock, Poseidon's Revenge was a nice touch. Speaking of nice touches--self driving! Added a lot of drama which boosted the episode overall.
Leg 09: B Show contentOK Route Info task, both Roadblocks were actually good! Rowing to the Pit Stop was a good touch as well. Overall a pretty physical leg. Despite some good tasks, the teams actually didn't deliver too much, which was a shame.

This is just for recency purposes! :tup:
TAR28:
Leg 1: A- (I really loved it! The worst part was honestly the first ten minutes with the dumb home start and the OTT-ness of these teams about their social media following but then other than that it was easily the best premiere in a long long time. Easy A+ had it not been for the start.)
Leg 2: B- (I thought it was just alright. I had a hard time following things at the Detour though and I wasn't a fan of the linearity of the leg =/ )
Leg 3: B+ (Meh start, AMAZING second half. The teams right after Sheri & Cole finished the task all delivered and it was such an entertaining episode. Transformed a C- episode to a B+.)
Leg 4: D- (It felt like a TAR24 remake and the only thing saving this episode was the tasks =/ )
Leg 5: F (lol.)
Leg 6: A- (Aside from a meh Roadblock, forced #Blodie, and Tyler finally being insufferable, easily the best of the season!)
Leg 7: A (It just got better lol. Amazing leg, excellent tasks, crappy boot =/)
Leg 8: B (I wasn't a big fan of the leg, but it was pretty tense, self-driving was good, and Dana's meltdowns saved it.)
Leg 9: B- (It was ok!)
Leg 10: D+ (It sucked!)
Leg 11: A- (It was great!)

TAR 28:
leg 1: A- ( yeah first 10 Minutes was not too fun but afterward <333333333, detour and roadblock on first leg <333 scott <33 Teams except Tyler/Korey and Darius Cameron <33 mess at detour <333 )
leg 2: A- (roadblock and detour is worth to watch, Blair glamness <333 )
leg 3: B ( the last half of TAR is just <3333 the task was yeah good, just good, but last 30 minutes was that why we miss so much of old TAR ... really intense and suspenful. .. <3333 )
leg 4: B- (the task was great but too bad the intense was gone in last minutes since we had already known who was eliminated... i like the idea of having pit stop in another country. .. just dislike the result )
leg 5: B- ( actually this leg was decent in term of extremely tasks and great scenery from Mt. Blanc itself. but yeah had this leg was a self-driving leg and not-too-linear leg, it would have been stepped up into a great one)
leg 6: B ( a good debut, Armenia! this leg was suprisingly fun (and heartwrenching :( ) leg... the ARI was suprisingly hillarious, detour was really solid... the RB was under my expectation (i though it would have been a great draining task but...) but Sheri's :( ... glad it was a TBC leg... like the idea of rewarding the express pass in this leg rather than first leg which tend to be borimg actually....
leg 7: A ( another great debut!!! really intense from start of the leg<333 highly applause for RB and Detour and their cultural relevance <333 zach and Rachel's first win <333 Georgia itseof it amazing!! intense fighting-for-last editing but surely a dissapointing result </3 really worthful to re-watch )
leg 8: B
Leg 9: A (as a Indonesian, i'm very happy and enjoyed this leg... best Indonesian leg so far and a top-tier leg (tied with Gerogian leg ) so far this season)
Leg 10: B (am I only one who did enjoy this leg? :lol: actually the detour was good, the RB was linear but I think it's fine... the u-turn drama :lol: <3 )
Leg 11:A- ( really good penultimate leg <3 altough all the tasks were culturally irrelevant, but still presented Shenzen and its daily life as well. the RB was great with geographical challenge + frantic run <333 detour was good, I really like the unicycle task but painting was boring though, but it somehow balanced and challenging too... the last 15 minutes editing <333333 )
