--- Quote from: RealityDaddy on June 04, 2022, 12:32:51 AM ---Why has TAR US never been to Israel when TAR AUS was there in their first season?
Is it security concerns, or thoughts that it would be too controversial in some way for US audiences?
The TAR AUS Israel segments were impressive (Tel Aviv, Masada).

Been waiting for this for a LONG time!
Maanca:
Some tasks Australia did, like the Detour of carrying the cross through old Jerusalem, that won't fly well with a politically-charged American audience (see: TAR22 Hanoi)
ye2000:
My personal wishlist:
Indonesia:
Jakarta (my home city)
Mount Bromo
Danau Toba
Padang (Nasi Padang Switchback from TAR21, this time they have to eat 3 dishes :conf:)
Labuan Bajo
Singkawang
Semarang
Raja Ampat (Hope visiting Papua isn’t controversial)
(Would love a task that would involve Indonesia and the Netherlands, something similar to TAR18 Leg 6 Tea Challenge)
Australia:
Melbourne (my 2nd home city)
Hobart
Launceston
Bendigo
Ballarat
Malaysia:
Malacca (How to get there)
Another Penang leg!
China:
Xinjiang (hope not too controversial but the landscape there is beautiful!)
Lanzhou
Tianjin
(I hope they would ride the bullet train for once!)
Others:
Bhutan (hope it’s not too expensive), Brunei (not too controversial), Qatar (hope Elise stops hating the country)
Parasparopagraho:
Although TARCAN will survive on CTV after its latest season's COVID outbreak, the fate of TARAUS on Channel Ten is up in the air - between these two scenarios, which seems more likely for the American flagship based on the newest episode preview?
G.B.:
The Fast Forward is kinda bunk these days. On the rare times it does show up, it's usually just whoever is in 1st place goes right for it and wins it right away, which is incredibly lame. I had a random thought for how to make the Fast Forward more competitive aside from returning it to the cost-ineffective format of one-per-leg
Teams all receive the Fast Forward clue at the very start of the leg. However, the Fast Forward has a time lock. It's not available until a specific time in the day. So say teams start the leg around 8am, the Fast Forward doesn't "unlock" until 12 noon, at which point anyone can go try to take it. That way any team, be they far ahead or far behind, has a fairly equal chance of winning it, and it would bring back that "will they, won't they" drama from the early seasons.
