Finally.. Amazing Race on my screen after a long hiatus, I wish the premiere was 1,5 hours.
i like how their navigation skill tested in this leg, but hate they did Japanese game show task again in Japan, like there was nothing else to do. Funny to see comments from non-TAR teams like "It's harder than it looks" or "we'd rather be on the island" :D

Interesting, Art & JJ are serving the penalty at the RoadBlock location, not the Pit Stop? ???

What a major letdown for their fans lol

Considering they were one of the most purely disliked teams from season 20.... :duno: Not going to say karma told them so, but...
(Heck, I have no clue why they were brought back. The most defining events they had for me was call out the "kindergarten teachers", give Bopper & Mark their prize money in the Turin leg, and JJ injuring his hand from scrap metal in Cochin.)
And side note: We didn't have a repeat married hippie couple elimination! The walking Anita & Arthur curse has been broken! :clap2:

Not that different from Flight Time and Big Easy, Franz Kafka RB penalty in Czech Republic, when they got eliminated in TAR15. If I remembering that correctly they served the penalty on the RB spot, before they were allowed to continue racing.

TAR 7 also had teams wait out the penalty at the Roadblock. TAR 22 & 25 were unique cases in that they were that last 3 teams, so there was no point in having them wait 4 hours before going to the Pit Stop. They also couldn't wait on site during TAR 6 during to the gondola closing. In this case, the Pit Stop close to the Roadblock, so it didn't make a difference where they waited.

I actually thought it was all pretty fine, I got to understand how any team fell behind unlike S30 premiere.
There are 11 teams, and this is the premiere with introductions and all that. You're not gonna get as good editing as for a F6 or even a F10, because the episode is packed by default. This was good.

I think editing in terms of actual content and just stylistically/visually, editing feels basic/cheap/not slick. But that's nothing new.
