Season 5
Leg 1 : B- (Meh
All I can remember is Charla & Mirna gambling)
Leg 2 : B+ (The Twins VS Chip & Kim)
Leg 3 : A- (Mirna airport's moment and Charla got electrocuted
)
Leg 4 : A (Who can forget the disgusting Caviar and Charla & Mirna in the ice hockey gear
)
Leg 5 : A (Crazy flight drama
Charla & Mirna sneaking off from everyone else at Midnight
)
Leg 6 : B+ (Mirna dealing with the Goats
)
Leg 7 : A- (Colin & Christie VS Charla & Mirna
, sad elimination of Charla & Mirna
)
Leg 8 : B (boring episode in this season, but still way better than the recent TAR epsidoes
)
Leg 9 : B+ (I don't like overcrowding India, the moments when bowling moms & Twins thinking they are last are hilarious
)
Leg 10 : A (extreme sports in New Zealand, the flight drama and Chip & Kim VS Twins again at the yield is so dramatic
)
Leg 11 : A- (My ox is broken by Colin
)
Leg 12 : A (Colin passing Karen at the roadblock, marking the stop of history making moment
)
Leg 13 : B+ (The Canada part is a bit boring)
Overall : A
Mostly because of Charla & Mirna. These two truly own the title of "drama queens" for the TAR history.
The dozen amount of flight drama also makes this season outstanding
Furthermore, the race course is finely designed to introduce the Money stripping penalty for being NEL
Every leg following a NEL is designed to minimize the need of money by either
(1) Being a self - driving leg / Transportation provided leg (Leg 10 New Zealand, Leg 12 El Nido)
(2) Being in a country with very low living standard (Leg 6 Egypt / Leg 9 India)
This will lower the adverse impact of having no money for the last place team, ensuring a more fair competition between teams
To conclude, I truly understand why everyone thinks Season 5 is the top of TAR history
