TAR Vietnam Season 6: SHOW Discussion
dryedmangoez:
That's very interesting! I think that's a fresh take on the Express Pass. I wonder how teams can win one. Whether a Leg prize or randomly finding one or having an extra task or requirement to existing task.
Looking forward to the premiere tonight! Hope they will still upload the full episodes to their official YT.

According to the episode, the Express Pass can also be used to save another team. So I guess the number of Express Passes will approximately be equal to the number of NEL. And the second leg might be an another NEL.
Some impression with the first episode:
- Even though every tasks are Route Info in the first leg, these is actually a "modified" detour (teams are forced to do one task from four tasks based on luck), and a double Roadblock.
- Both members of the gray team do not know how to read. (However, I appreciate that they speak completely in Vietnamese, unlike some other teams).
- The time penalty for the first task is 20 minutes.
- One member of yellow team is an environmentalist, and she tried to cut the grass in the right way.
- The black team broke the machine in the "modified" detour and needed to do the task by hand :O
- One girl in team white gave up the last task and decided to receive the time penalty. Seeing the team might finish in last place, she decided to give up the penalty and complete the task :lol:
- The first leg is a NEL.
- Since the two bottom teams decide to check in at the same time, they are both marked for elimination in the next leg. They will not have any money for the next leg.

Two teams taking a NEL penalty. Is that a first?

Probably since most other franchises don't have ties. This leg was already playing a little loose with task structure, so why not end the leg with an NEL tie. :lol:

Haven't watched the ep yet. So is the Express Pass basically the Salvage Pass now?
