Loved the 26.

cbacbacba1:
TAR 26 's premier is probably the worst episode / leg ever
A 90-minute episode for just a detour and a W-turn, plus the repeating dancing detour made the episode boring

I would say the best first leg we have got is probably TAR22. The skydiving roadblock provides great scenery for a world-travelling show, and then the sandcastle roadblocks caused massive placement change, plus the episode ended in an intense 3-way canoe race! What can we ask for more? :hfive:

I think for the same reasons 25 was great. I think CBS realized how successful the 22 premiere was and kind of did the same format — island scenery (seaplane and rock climbing) and a hot really difficult beach task.

Marionete:
I'm surprised everyone liked S25's premiere so much.
It may not be among the worst premieres, but I generally think it was a bad leg that tainted an otherwise great season.

nrh2110:
I think 23 and 26 weren’t as bad as people think they were. Sure they weren’t the greatest, but they weren’t bad. Especially 26; in recent seasons they’ve had issues creating hard tasks and I think the damage detour was pretty difficult. I actually personally liked the U Turn in the first leg, I just wish it had been more unexpected in that they didn’t know there would be one until right before.
