TAR 33 ORIGINAL PRE-RACE Speculation (dates/cast/routes)

The newer variants, some with two major mutations, are going to continue to be a concern for the coming months. It would be difficult and risky to assume international air travel will be safe in all instances, when flight have to connect through areas less well vaccinated. To fully cover the planet, we might need 15 billion doses. At the moment, Africa, South America, Asia and much of Europe just aren’t safe for travel without a significant risk of COVID-19 exposure. Filming in tha autumn just doesn’t seem feasible rto me. For Survivor, they had to agree to a rigid quarantine and testing protocol just to get production back in Fiji to film seasons 41 and 42.
I think CBS wants TAR back in production, but they want things to be safe as possible first. That’s not the case now.

cerealking:
The Seychelles and Bhutan are two other countries to keep an eye on since they've quickly caught up with the UAE and Israel on vaccinations.Bhutan might be considered a bit too hard to get in and out of but the Seychelles deserves another visit imo. If they can get it up and going sometime in Q4, it'd be a change of pace from the other rich countries in Europe and North East Asia they're likely to visit weather wise.

Neobie:
Don't get your hopes up for Australia and New Zealand; the two (especially New Zealand) are adopting an extremely cautious approach to all arrivals, and may not be lifting restrictions for even vaccinated travellers anytime soon. Australia may have been considering opening up to some other countries (e.g. Singapore, Japan), but New Zealand has implicitly threatened to burst the Trans-Tasman air travel bubble if Australia does that.

georgiapeach:
Smart countries are taking notice of the many new very worrisome Varients and are tightening restrictions accordingly.

UNLIKE the many US states going the other way and lossening restrictions.

Medically speaking we are clearly NOT out of the woods yet.

My GUESS is no TAR in 2021. Not so sure Survivor is going to make it unscathed either.

I should note the AMA was mostly to deal with Tough As Nails. I was unaware it was still going on until most of the Qs he was answering was about Tough As Nails.

The most relevant bit was he answered a question about his upcoming projects or what's on the schedule for 2021. He says he has TWO seasons of Tough As Nails coming up (seasons 3 and 4) to film and a screenplay he is trying to write and complete with a buddy. There wasn't a single mention of TAR 33.

Given the record high number of COVID cases in many countries around the planet and the lack of referencing TAR 33 in the "What's Next For You, Phil?" Question, I'm willing to bet money we don't get TAR 33 filmed before the end of the year (or at least until very very close until the end of the year if it does happen).
