georgiapeach:
Teams were also held back at the airport. There was a several hour period from their arrival to their release.

Sucks that first taxi/navigation played such a role.

I too was expecting a BIG memory challenge here. The beads was okay...required attention to color and size. And from being right there there was also an element of getting the crowd involved so they wuld toss the beads to YOU. You really had to WORK the crowd which I don't think came across on TV.The find the baby eating challenge was local color but essentially a random luck based task. I do not want LUCK on the final leg. I want SKILL--in using transportation/memory challenges (hard!) and expect the finalle to incorporate a truly challenging course.   

The non-memory Globe was a waste. Had it incorpotrated adding a flad to the exact locations or or SOMETHING memory related it could have been better.

Having said all that...I anm VERY happy with our winners. Having true fans who actually APPPLIED  (Hung and Chee fit this as well!) is far preferable to be that having recruited teams win.

James and WIll will do us proud! Very happy with the outcome.

Congratulations to the whole cast for an entertaining season!

It's so frustrating to have teams so well-rested that they have enough strength to run everywhere, finish the tasks and planning their winning speech before hand. It's tough feel emotional when the winner's reaction is highly compromised. It took the fun out of it.

They have been doing this fr years. I LIKE having the final 3 rested and on their best game play. Makes it more fun for me to watch!

I understand that you want to be nice to the finalists but don't you want them to test their limit? Under normal circumstances, I bet a lot of people would find the tasks to be piece of cake and the team would blow by those tasks quickly. There's not much joy in doing (or watching someone doing) something you know you can do without problems hence why it's looked like Will & James only got excited about winning the race & not about finishing the tasks. We come on the race beside winning the money, to accomplish something, isn't it? That's why in the past a lot of team never quit even when they knew they were dead last and at their breaking point & that's when the fun comes in for me. They had been racing without first class flight every legs, why stopped there?

Marionete:
I very much like what was in said in the above TWO posts. Agree with most everything said there.

It was 100% mostly the alliance that made the race boring. Production was great for most of the legs this season – imo the only poorly designed legs were 2 & 12. We had the alliance ruin multiple tasks like the Berlin RB.

They have been flying business or 1st on the home leg for years. I agree with making the tasks challenging.

SuzieTampa:
I worked at the New Orleans Times-Picayune almost 6 years. I was shocked that Will couldn't eat 6 beignets. Mardi Gras World is fascinating and can be eerie, especially at night. I wished they had had to run around more in there. I was disappointed the Boyfriends won. It seemed like they were always performing, unlike Hung & Chee who seemed sincere.
