TARCAN 10 Speculation and Discussion of the LIVE Spoilers

<< < (10/20) > >>

Maanca:
Well, US started the no Non-Eliminations with season 34, after Arun & Natalia were saved three times. Canada had a similar thing last year with Jermaine & Justin, who were a frustratingly underperforming team :P

From a production standpoint, I could see how they might be inspired to try it.

I lived in New Brunswick for a couple of years, but never made it up to Miramichi. I don't know much about the city itself but its right next to Kouchibouguac National Park, which is probably the second most famous park in the province outside of the Bay of Fundy. Besides that there's also probably a lot of Acadian stuff to be done.

The city’s also called Canada's Irish Capital.

Regarding when the QC leg was filmed, it seems Jon was spotted at a restaurant in Cornwall on Tuesday night...
We know the Guelph leg was filmed on Sunday.

2 options:

- The Quebec leg was filmed on Tuesday, Jon was done with the pitstop and headed right away to Cornwall, but had 2 full days of rest and to film the b-roll. The only problem with this is that it seems from the Radio-Canada article that they filmed on that ranch on Wednesday-Thursday.
- Jon stoppped on his was to film the leg in Quebec city to eat in Cornwall but left, that night only to return on Thursday?

Joberio:

So, between Richmond, Penticton, Regina + Russell, Elora, and Mauricie (5 distinct locations), three teams - Sam & Brad (Father/Daughter),  Olivia & Julia (Married F/F), and John & Connor - were eliminated. Unless they were all single-length leg, we burned the two NELS, and the race is returning to an eleven-leg format, I think Maanca's spec. below is onto something. It also means that we didn't miss a leg between Elora on Sunday the 5th and Mauricie on Wednesday-Thursday the 8th & 9th.



--- Quote from: Maanca on May 03, 2024, 02:36:38 PM ---With them adding an 11th team back in for the first time since Season 3, I'm thinking they might be leaning into TARUS' "no Non-Eliminations" thing.

TAR Canada has a propensity to repeat twists that worked for them before. For budget's sake, they might do a leg like Toronto last year, not a true "Megaleg" by US definition but enough to fill two episodes. That plus one KOR.

Given the back-to-back sightings in Richmond and Penticton, I'm going to relinquish my former position and assume that they were one leg - but two episodes. It would be fitting, from an editing perspective, to have Leg 3A in Richmond with 2 tasks and a U-Turn vote, teams fly to Penticton for a Roadblock and Detour, and Episode 3 ends with a cliffhanger before the results of the U-Turn are revealed.

That would then make:
* Regina-Russell Leg 4 (Episode 5)
* Elora Leg 5 (Episode 6)
* Mauricie Leg 6 (Episode 7), and
* Cornwall-Maxville Leg 7 (Episode 8) with 6 teams remaining
Seeing as teams finished Leg 6 on Thursday and raced Leg 7 on Friday, I'm going to suggest that Quebec is our best bet for a KOR, assuming the "no non-eliminations" logic (and continuing the tradition of Quebec nearly always resulting in a NEL or KOR :funny:).

Of these teams left, are any of them women's teams?
