TAR 32 EP 9 LIVE SHOW UPDATES AND COMMENTARY 11/25/20 9-10PM

<< < (20/22) > >>

TARUSAFan:
This Mega Leg (8/9) was one of the best Indian Legs I've seen on TAR. I cannot fault it. Very cultural and really centered on what India is.
The first-half of the Mega Leg, centered on India's tech-savviness and it's technology infrastructure from the Swiggy Food Delivery Task, augmented reality, motion detectors. Roadside smog test was a task that brought some chaos, loved how this additional task brought some spice. New Indian city!

The second-half mainly focused on daily Indian culture like the bangles task, dentures and Indian high-society.
Wow! the Taj Falaknuma Palace atop a hill with views of the city.

Not a fan of the 2 Yields. It gave the team that received it absolutely no chance to recover.
Poor Kaylynn & Haley getting slapped with 40 minutes.

I was put-off by DeAngelo & Eswar's unnecessary comments/bullying towards the sisters more so from Eswar labelling them "cockroaches" and how they managed to get saved by luck and get stronger. DeAngelo, you and Gary were carried by most of your alliance and did not give back much. Leeches. The Blonde Bandits were on their own for the entire Race and only got a helping in Bogota and they were dumped in Berlin by Leo & Alana.

Have to commend Kaylynn & Haley, while not as interesting as they are, I found them bland to be honest. But I do appreciate and admire their tenacity and determination to finish and keep on racing despite the obstacles thrown at them from bad cabs, other teams ganging up on them. Luck wasn't on their side this time. I was rooting for them much like Amy & Maya from S.25 as they were underdogs.

I find the alliance just more than annoying to watch. Hooray that the Mine Five is broken/dead but progressing further to the "3" with
Will & James, Riley & Maddisson, Hung & Chee. It's still NOT OVER 

:whoop: :furious:

Will & James + Riley & Maddisson don't get me started on these 2 teams. I hate these 2 with a passion.
They have been obnoxious with the helping. You've got the pot-stirrers and the suck-up Beard Bros as henchmen to assist in the execution of their grand masterplan. Will & James completely railroaded their agenda and it paid-off. This is a bad precedent for future seasons.


While it was logical to Yield the Blondes because they were far behind and they did not want bad blood with the other teams within the alliance if they Yielded someone else. I still don't get why would you take stronger teams towards the end?!?!
It was mentioned here by another user, Will & James possibly have the mentality "I need to compete with the best, and if I lose, I lost to the best."  If this is their mentality, then this is a STUPID mentality to bring on the Race especially with 1 Million US Dollars on the line.
Aligning yourself with stronger teams to avoid being targeted by them is strategic, taking them towards the last stages of the Race, I'm just not sure. It is a double-edged sword. It's just a huge gamble.

I just feel that with this Season, the competitive spirit of the Amazing Race is gone.
They brought back the Season to its core roots only to launch a new era for succeeding Seasons, the effectivity of the alliance.
An alliance with half the cast.

Brilliant isn't it? Phil must have been baffled with the amount of crap these teams had to make explaining to him the alliance. Phil just looks confused. They still wouldn't get it after Phil's comments.

It's like The Amazing Call-A-Friend Race or The Amazing Helping Race. If I was a producer, I would be annoyed because the tasks specifically designed are just amazing. It was properly thought of and with the existence of the "Mine Five" I feel as the efforts of the producers, designers, partners in the countries they visited in were wasted.

Also, speaking on behalf of my sister, a superfan friend and friends & relatives whom  are new to the show
I told them to watch the show as they are avid travellers. They miss the travelling with all the pandemic and all.
They were put-off by the alliance. They love the concept of the Race but they asked me "Is this is a Race?
I just told them to continue watching to support the show as they were not pleased with it turned out.
I had to explain to the new viewers that this is a unique case and not applicable on all the other seasons.

There is no one left for me to fully root for. Hung & Chee maybe? If someone has to win. It has to be them.
My winners pick was Michelle & Victoria but they're gone

As gamerfan09 said. "No wonder this season took 2 years to air."
I bet the editors had a hard time editing because of this alliance. Ugh.

stunami:
The only time i was realllllllly annoyed with the Alliance was the Berlin roadblock. I feel it's probably the only time it really changed the race.

Sure they help/get help other times, but in the end I think it wouldn't really change anything. (I'm thinking of James getting help in the roadblock in Paraguay, and in the first roadblock on the mega leg).

HavaDrPepper:
This season is definitely not in my top 10 of seasons.  Probably in the bottom 5. The alliance ruined what could have been a good season.

The travel has been interesting because I will probably never see any of these places in my life.

However, I am thoroughly disgusted by the denture task.  It was truly horrendous for me to watch since I had dental implant surgery 2 weeks ago and have been struggling with trying to wear dentures for 2 freakin' years!  It is horrible to have someone trained putting their hands in your mouth let alone some random person doing a task on a race.

At this point, guessing that the NFL guys and the brother/sister go home in the next 2 places, I would be OK with Hung and Chee winning.  In all reality, I don't want any of the Mine 5 to win.  Hung and Chee are the least objectionable of those 3 teams.

Nuku:
Not really getting all the hate on the alliance and the comments towards kaylynn and hayelye honestly?? like said above, the berlin roadblock was the onyl thing i found a bit annoying but at the end of the day it is for a million dollars and you have to do what u have to do to make it far! no other racers have pulled off a strong alliance in race history and so what they do it now! survivor and big brother its an individual game but guess what alliances gurantee you get a lottttt further in the game! for the comments towards the sisters: it would have to be annoying to you if you were on a race if a team kept kicking butt and surviving like its a competition!! and far nastier things have been said on survivor and big brother!! these r all reality shows for money!! its a competition!!! i was super frusturated with the committe in bb22 but guess what? it hands down is the tsrongest alliance in bb history!! part of comeptitions is to work with other people to further your self!! lets relax and enjoy this good strategy and next episode they have to turn on one another!!! this route has been fantastic so far so lets see what else the season has to offer!

Xoruz:
The alliance is getting over hated considering it hasn't done much. It's really just cemented the inevitable. Overedited, yes. The Berlin Roadblock was annoying but there was answer sharing outside the alliance.
