Topic: TAR 32: Bitch, Moan, Squeal Here! (Filming and pre show Spoilers)

[elthemagnifico]

It is interesting how phil would explain yield after 21 seasons... I wonder if they put the twist on the yield hmmm

Also does it mean that there wouldnt be any uturn point (unaired/unavailable) for this season? Havent seen any uturn sighting on timeline thrrad or i did miss something

[TARUSAFan]

The only thing I am going to moan about right now are the locations of the new season, which seem very been there, done that or just not interesting compared with past seasons.

Most of the seasons since TAR18 have had at least great destinations but I just felt disappointed when I saw the spoiler list. A part of it for me is the fact that TAR still haven't visited most of Eastern Europe (Slovenia, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Albania) and Australia and New Zealand are barely touched, most likely due to budgeting.

How do you mean? T&T, Bogotá, Manaus, Hyderabad, & New Orleans are getting visited for the first time. Plus, we’ve only been to Paraguay & Kazakhstan once and Cambodia and Philippines twice!

Too much South America, same European countries as always and not enough and too much Asia. The only saving grace for me is Kazakhstan in all honesty.

How is there too much South America? There’s only 3 legs. Same as Seasons 5, 13, 16, 20, & 27.

My only qualm here is France & Germany. Paris again?? France is way too overused. They could have gone elsewhere like Ireland, Finland, Latvia, Hungary. While I like Germany, it's one of my favorites, but Berlin again? They could have gone to Cologne, Frankfurt, Hamburg or Leipzig etc..

1 New Country, 4 New Cities & 3 revisits to underused Cities. That's good for me overall.


CAN THIS SEASON AIR ALREADY!!!

[elthemagnifico]

it does hit me with curiosity that Philippines never get visited outside the last two/penultimate leg in its respective seasons yet... any idea why?

Both Philippines and South Korea, no more than 4 teams have ever raced in either country at the same time.

Though it was rumored the Philippines was on the TAR24 (westward) route but was cancelled because of Typhoon Haiyan that happened a week before scheduled filming.

TAR Asia and Australia both had early Philippine Legs, so it's not like it's a difficult effort.

But it definitely feels like this TAR32 Manila Leg was a replacement for something else.

[NELs]

I'm kinda looking forward to this route more that 31

[elthemagnifico]

Months later and I just realized that Manila leg has possibly a pit start and a pit stop on the same place  That is actually... Really interesting twist tbh, and most likely the reason why the four teams got a direct announcement from Phil at the start of the leg (well at least it's not H2H in penultimate leg tho  )

And I kinda having sense that probably they would do Bahrain-leg-style (No RB and Detour at all)...

I was really hoping to watch the premiere. Sucks that it got delayed.

Disappointing but WAY better for TAR as a whole to nab a prime Fall spot~~

Now we need to hope the promotions team at CBS takes this seriously and nabs a lot of viewers for this comeback season when time comes (4 weeks prior instead of 2 ideally). The new logo gives me promise.

[I ♥ TAR]

It's embrassing that canadian channel gave us TAR32 promo sooner than CBS. CBS has nothing new to air this fall except of TAR but instead of promoting it they continue to threat it as ****. Casuals probably have no idea season will be airing in 3 weeks.

The Race NEEDS the decent amount of promo that Love Island has been getting.

Its embarrassing that CTV screwed up and released a promo before the cast reveal. Clearly this was an error.

Please lets not attack CBS unless there is a real issue.

They generally don't do a reveal until 3 weeks ish before.  My guess is the publicity starts soon.

[gamerfan09]

If they can air nonstop ads for TV shows that premiere much later than TAR as "coming this Fall", then certainly something as simple as a 10 second promo saying "New Amazing Race premieres October" with a generic logo can be aired.

Do you guys have the video? I would llke to see it.

[Maanca]

That would be the second time CTV's made this error this year. There was no TAR Canada because they couldn't film one, but CTV's social media still posted a weird ad in the early summer sounding like it was.

Someone's drunk there

[dryedmangoez]

They should be running incessant 15 second promos during Big Brother and Love Island right about now, tbh.  And obviously during NFL games on Sundays.

[ZBC Company]

i really love this cast, very divserty and the race course.

[RachelLeVega]

I really hope the editing for this season is at least adrenaline-pumping. I immediately lost hope in that with the clips of Starting Line banter between teams. Glad they showed this in the preview instead of leaving it all for the premiere. I dislike the unneeded conversations when teams are lined up and ready to go. The premiere for last season was so dragged out because of this.

Yes, I hope that wasn't an actual clip from the episode and that they released it now because it will NOT be in the actual premiere.

I just realized, how weird would it have been if Ford, for example, were still a sponsor and they were to promote a brand new 2019 Ford model on the show only for it to air in 2020 now when there's 2021 models already!

Or a new Snapple flavor that would be released to coincide with the show's airing, but it ending up getting delayed two years! Crazy!lol

Even Travelocity would be a bit strange right now. I wonder if teams have been patiently waiting for 2 years to take their trips to COVID hot spots around the world.

[Declive]

At first sight i loved the cast. Let's hope they can deliver.

At least the trips would win by the teams to be impacted by the pandemic as international travel is restricted to tourists until 2021 with the first trimester of 2021 could be the earliest.

Ooo! True!

I wonder if the start of the premiere will include a short message from Phil maybe talking about this being filmed before COVID and everything about the current world we're all living in now. I know TAR Israel did that for their recent premiere episode.

Maybe the second delay was caused by Travelocity saying no to airing their brand during peak COVID numbers... something to think about. They got multiple prizes lined up throughout the season and TAR and Travelocity benefit off of each other. If one says no, the other can't go.
