--- Quote ---A comment on TAR Family: I noticed on another thread that someone mentioned actually having a clue envelope from the final leg. This would be a dead giveaway that this was a decoy, I think, because decoy teams our season were told to drop the false clues they'd been given so they would end up on the internet. Meredith and Gretchen's detour took them to the famous Book Depository in Texas where no one seemed to care about what they were doing. When they intentionally dropped a clue envelope once, someone ran up and told Gretchen, "You dropped this!!!" and gave it back. I'm just saying, if it looks like too obvious, it probably is.

You trying to say people in Texas do not care about Amazing race?? Probably too hot to stand around and watch.
Good information about dropping the clues. Because the teams get penalties if they do not have their clue at the pit stop.

not a spoiler just an article I read ~
If you haven't been following the early reports on the new season, here's the bottom line: According to online reports and some published stories, the cycle of "Amazing Race'' that begins Sept. 27 is, at best, disappointing and, at worse, a mess. The producers decided to do something different with the show in its eighth go-round and came up with "Amazing Race: Family Edition'' which features teams with four members of the same family.
Biggest problem: With younger kids involved, the race was limited in terms of how far and where it could go. As a result, "Amazing Race'' apparently never wandered outside the Americas, spending much of its time in the U.S.
and Canada. (Huntsville, Ala. and Niagara Falls, N.Y. are perfectly nice places but they don't compete in appeal with Kenya and Singapore.)
I don't know how much stock to put in some of the reports but I fear the worse. When I recently asked two CBS executives about the coming ""Race'' season, they both rolled their eyes and quickly changed the subject
