Mark & Michael being on that list already makes it dubious and suspect, to say the least (though the others are fine enough).

Sorry my bad, I have deleted that comment.

Another All-Stars should not only bring back teams from TAR 12 and onwards, but should also give some teams from the skipped seasons (4 and 6), as well as some who proved they could have gone further, a chance this time. Winners should not be selected. Here's the cast I would love to see:
1. Jon & Al (4)
2. Colin & Christie (5)
3. Lena & Kristy (6)
4. Kris & Jon (6)
5. Ronald & Christina (12)
6. Azaria & Hendekea (12)
7. Ken & Tina (13)
8. Toni & Dallas (13)
9. Margie & Luke (14)
10. Zev & Justin (15)
11. Jet & Cord (16)
12. Steve & Allie (16)
-
If I were doing a "recent" All-Stars then I would have the following:
Carol and Brandy (16): Such lightning rods that if they do bring back teams, I don't know how these two aren't amongst them.
Kisha and Jen (14): One potty break kept them out of the final three. Well, that and Jen having a complete meltdown at the pool.
Kelly and Christie (13): Good racers. Need another female-female team.
Globetrotters (15): Enjoyed watching them race. Had fun, stayed competitive.
Ken and Tina (13): One of the more touching moments was when they were on the mat at the conclusion of their season.
Dallas and Toni (13): Unfortunate passport episode kept them from possibly winning the race. They were getting stronger as the race neared completion. I think that a final three with them, Nick and Starr and Ken and Tina is unbelievably close.
Azaria and Hendekea (12): Brother-Sister team who seemed very strong but just hit that leg where nothing goes right.
Kynt and Vixsin (12): One of the more memorable teams in TAR history. Just like with Carol and Brandy, I can't imagine an All-Stars race that doesn't include them.
Mark and Bill (13): They were two guys that you wanted to see do well. Sadly, they misread or ignored the clue and it cost them. Hate to see a team eliminated like that.
Margie and Luke (14): Proved the doubters wrong week after week.
Amanda and Kris (14): Strong team who struggled with a detour and then fell victim to a U-Turn.
Eric and Lisa (15): Only because TAR did them wrong with that starting line elimination. Give them a chance to run the race.
Zev and Justin: Who wasn't pulling for these guys before the passport mishap?
That's 13 teams. Probably subtract one of the male-male teams to make 12, and do what you want from there, but that's just how I see it...
I think this would present an unbelievably strong group of teams. Eric and Lisa are the only team that one wouldn't really know what to expect and that's because we haven't really seen them race. Among the other 11 teams, you could make the case that any of them could be the first ones eliminated or be in the final three.
How many of my teams were recruits? Carol and Brandy, Eric and Lisa, Amanda and Kris (?), Globetrotters (?)
-
It has to have stand-outs e.g
Kynt and Vyxsin
Ken and Tina
Carol and Brandy
Azaria and Hendekea
Toni and Dallas
Margie and Luke
Jamie and Cara
Colin and Christie
Jon and Al
Linda and Karen
Ken and Gerard
Dave and Lori
Ron and Christina
Meghan and Cheyne
Meredith and Gretchen (age problem = 72,69)
BJ and Tyler
Chip and Kim
and if 3 timers were allowed I'm sure:
Rob and Amber
Charla and Mirna
Dustin and Kandice
Joe and Bill
-
My wish?
No AllStars EVER again.
And I think CBS would have to drag Eric and Lisa screaming to the start line...they would be highly unlikely to want to try this again.
-
I liked All-Stars the first time, did you not Peach? Just the bootlist killed it right (:;)
I would love a big-returning players Season 20 of TAR because it will be (should be) around 10 years since the beginning of the show we love and it just seems right!
But I would only ask for 1 more and never again, not like Survivor, having possibly 4 in 22 seasons :lol: and more to come...
But BVM said no to another A-S, so maybe it wont happen :duno:
-
As long as there are no more lame Eric and Danielle combi team.
And 11 teams who are really really memorable and doesn't include teams in the first all-star because they've had their chance.
Flo and Zach
Linda and Karen
Colin and Christy
Kris and Jon
Maybe Carissa and one of her family members when she grows up
BJ and Tyler (hated them at all cost, but they are seriously memorable)
Lyn and Karlyn
Ronald and Christina
Tammy and Victor
Margie and Luke
Kisha and Jen/Cara and Jaime
Meghan and Cheyne/Brian and Ericka
Carol and Brandy
Jet and Cord

I agree. The list I posted was what I would like to see if they do decide to go All-Stars.
The thing that was so bad about TAR11 was that all of the teams had developed since the race and gone onto semi-celebrity status. Reality TV and TAR does that to everyone, particularly those who stay longer in the race and/or are memorable. Teams were much more conscious of the cameras and the initial excitement was not there because they had done it before.

Well, if it is an all-stars including new seasons, then my wishlist is:
1.Kynt & Vyxsin (TAR 12)
2.Azaria & Hendekea (TAR 12)
3.Marisa & Brooke (TAR 13)
4.Kelly & Christy (TAR 13)
5.Terence & Sarah (TAR 13)
6.Jaime & Cara (TAR 14)
7.Kisha & Jen (TAR 14)
8.Sam & Dan (TAR 15)
9.Maria & Tiffany (TAR 15)
10.Jordan & Jeff (TAR 16)
11.Carol & Brandy (TAR 16)
12. TAR 17
and if i can include teams from older seasons, i would add Charla & Mirna, Lena & Kristy and Dustin & Kandice.
-
This is my wishlist... I didn't pick any teams from seasons 9-13 because I haven't watched those yet!
1. Nancy & Emily (TAR 1)
2. Blake & Paige (TAR 2)
3. Kelly & Jon (TAR 4)
4. Lena & Kristy (TAR 6)
5. Meredith & Gretchen (TAR 7)
6. Bill & Tammy Gaghan (TAR 8 )
7. Margie & Luke (TAR 14)
8. Jaime & Cara (TAR 14)
9. Eric & Lisa (TAR 15)

11. Steve & Allie (TAR 16)
12. Jet & Cord (TAR 16)

Well my two cents (well probably 40 cents).
The real problem with All Stars (especially for people who are diehard fans, is that with us religiously going over every single aspect of the race that we can before it airs, one of the few real surprises for us is team interactions (with each other, with locals and with other teams).
With the previous all stars we had (i think its safe to say) one of the most spoiled seasons we have ever experienced. And since we already new the teams to a far greater degree then any new team, it really, really didn't hold much in the way of surprises.
Really the big surprises were the flight issues in several episodes, and that well for myself at least isn't interesting.
If they do another All Stars, I will probably be very careful to avoid spoilers, so that more of the episodes are new to me.
As to selections for myself I have always been (unless you are a complete and total ass (Hi jonathug, Hi Will, Oh look the Weavers!!!) I want all stars to be the best racers. So that limits me.
That then puts me under one or two options.
1. The best overall teams (personal opinion of course as each individual season has different strengths and weaknesses) regardless of team makeup. THis option will, never, ever, ever happen. But its one I actually would really love to watch.
2. Try and create normal mix of racers (gay team, african american team, 2 all male teams, an older team, sibling or parent/child team, one or two all female teams, an every man team, two couples, one fighting couple team, one humor team ect), and then find what I find are the best racing teams that fit that criteria.
For example, on female teams I would look at all the female teams and then think which are do I think are the best racing (others might pick most entertaining, I almost never would) and use that to fill those roles. I also would not consider any team that didn't make it half the race (so teams that I liked like Brad & Victoria, Amanda & Kris, Mark & Bill, Zev & Justin sorry but I wouldn't pick you and I really like all of those teams).
So here would be my list. 11 teams.
1. Colin & Christie (I don't love them, but seriously...)
2. Kris & Jon (Again a no brainer)
3. Any of these Alpha Male team (because they absolutely should have been considered for season 11 and were not just due to being fit all male teams, which is utter crap in my opinion). Rob & Brennan (Season 1), Derek & Drew (season 3), Eric & Jeremy (season 9), or Tyler & James (season 10). Out of these four I would pick either Eric & Jeremy or Rob & Brennan as I find them to be the superior racing teams.
That none of those three sets made it for the first all stars is really unbelievable.
Now to newer teams.
>>>>>>>>>
4. Nick & Starr or Meghan & Cheyne (both have earned it) or even Tammy & Victor
5. Toni & Dallas or Margie & Luke (Love both teams so either would please me greatly).
6. Nicholas & Donald (Mainly due to no true older team doing well in many, many a season). Or Ken & Tina (I don't really think of them as older) but they did quite well.
7. Jaime & Cara (after all cab drivers need someone to hate)
8. Sam & Dan
9. Kisha & Jen (or if another female team is good this coming season)
10. Jet & Cord (really season 16 raced across the board so awful so often, but if I had to pick one team).
11. Off beat humor team would be happy with any of these three teams. Jon & Al, Ken & Gerard or Kynt & Vyxzin.

mswood, Amen to your thoughts on AllStars season. I am on record as not wanting to ever see an AllStars season again, but if there is one, then what you said is so close to the way I see it that there are only a few minor points of difference:
Ken was age 51 and Tina age 48 when they competed in Amazing Race 13. Was that too old to win? No way, but they are older!
I would pick Jon and Al over Kynt and Vyxsin just because I think Jon and Al were robbed on what could have been final victory by some fog and ineptness by Korean Airlines. They deserve the chance to go all the way and would provide great entertainment throughout doing so.
-
I would rather see a race of the fourth outs...or maybe the robbed teams like Brad/Vic, Zev/Justin, and a few unlucky first outs.
But I stand by loving NEW teams of ordinary people...not recruited, just wonderful applicants. There are thousands of them, we know it is possible. Look at the joy of season one.
-
To make it fair if we're talking about teams after the first allstars I would pick
1. Kynt & Vyxsin (TAR12) (Awesome team in my opinion, just unlucky)
2. Ronald & Christina (TAR12)
3. Ken & Tina (TAR13) (Good team, deserves another chance)
4. Toni & Dallas (TAR13) (Very strong team, could of won TAR13 imo)
5. Margie & Luke (TAR 14) (Good team, love the mother/son side of TAR, could of won TAR14, just unlucky I guess)
6. Amanda & Kris (TAR 14) (Good team, picked because they got the UTURN, would make the race interesting)
7. Jaime & Cara (TAR 14) (I want an all female team to win TAR, they would stand a good chance)
8. Zev & Justin (TAR 15) (Speaks for itself, great team)
9. Jordan & Jeff (TAR 16) (They have potential)
10. Carol & Brandy (TAR 16) (I like this team)
11. Jet & Cord (TAR 16) (Awesomeness)
If there's a 12th team, reserved for *Winners*
12. TK & Rachel (TAR 12) Or Dan & Jordan (TAR 16) (I found these 2 teams the most likable of all the winners since TAR 11)
I like this team choice, all of them have made a huge impact in each race they've been in, all of them have personality and are decent racers. If anything if CBS picked these il'd be like OMG I wonder who will win. It'd be so hard to tell lol
These are my 13 favourite teams.

I had thought that Ken & Tina were both in their forties when they raced. Knowing they are older then I had assumed I would certainly use them as the token older team.
As for Jon and Al, I was very surprised they weren't really even considered for the first all stars. I would love to see them or Ken & Gerard again. Both far more then Kynt & Vyxzin.
I also would ideally prefer their not be an all stars. But I am getting more and more curious as we have had no solid news on casting for a cycle 18.

I really wouldn't call Brad & Victoria or Zev and Justin robbed as their own errors caused their eliminations.
But one of the pluses for a Season of Early outs is that in many cases we never really got to see a lot of these teams. The problem with this is (besides of course events outside your own control) it's really difficult to judge how well teams that went out early actually race. As most of the racers who had completed or nearly completed the race will attest that the further along you get the harder the race is as you are suffering from fatigue, hunger, more stress, ect.

I believe there will be another all stars to feed the hunger of all diehard fans? Survivor couldn't resist and did many allstars or half or part allstars season. I know the prouducers of TAR said Allstars was a bad idea.. but i think if they are to do it again, there will be much more careful planning and selection of teams.
And oh i forgot all about Kynt and Vyxsin.. definitely a memorable team. And it would be good to get some of the family edition teams to race as a team of two. Mama Paolo and Papa Paolo will be fun to watch, i believe.. except that they probably will have no chance of winning if they are up against the all-stars.
Hence my stand is that the teams chosen have to be BOTH MEMORABLE and COMPETITIVE. Very competitive in fact. The reason why the first allstar wasn't even that exciting because some of the teams chosen were not even competitive at all. (Teri and Ian, Charla and Mirna wants to be.. but they're not, Danielle, Mary and David, Kevin and Drew..)
And up till now only a few teams fit the criteria and i agree with mswood, you need to have token alpha male teams in the race, but only TWO.
-
It is getting suspicious because of no auditions for Season 18, was this kinda how things went after TAR10 for 11 casting process?
-
I really don't think anyone ousted before F6 should be considered an "All-Star," so I'd cut Zev & Justin and Jordan & Jeff out of any possibility.
-

No. TAR11 actually did have auditions. But all chosen teams were dropped when they decided to do an All-Star season.

Exactly, here's my 12 teams for a Post-ARAS (After Season 11):
- Kynt and Vyxsin
- Ronald and Christina
- Nathan and Jennifer (are they still together)
- Nick and Starr (if Nathan and Jennifer aren't together only)
- Ken and Tina
- Toni and Dallas
- Jamie and Cara
- Margie and Luke
- Kisha and Jen
- Meghan and Cheyne
- Flight Time and Big Easy
- Jet and Cord
- Carol and Brandy

"The reason why the first allstar wasn't even that exciting because some of the teams chosen were not even competitive at all. " - Joab, you have hit it out of the park here. I remember Phil Keoghan talking about the All-Stars teams before the broadcast season for AR11, and maybe even before the actual race was run, that they were chosen as a sort of popularity contest. He did not say it, but it was obvious that alpha males past winners had been excluded. Popular teams like John Vito and Jill(out 1st), Kevin and Drew (out 2nd) and David and Mary (out 3rd) took precedence over high performing teams. So why would anyone believe that it would be different for an All-Stars 2 Amazing Race?
-
:hides Let me get under here now.
If it's personalities they want, and maybe ratings, too, the best team to cast might be Rob Mariano and Russell Hantz. Totally a gimmick and certainly not "ordinary people doing extraordinary things", but think of the intra-team dynamic. :snicker:
I'm not advocating this, just sayin'.
(I know there is a rumor that we'll see these two on Survivor 22. Early boots, I would imagine hope.)
-
If they have another season with returning racers, don't even try to call it All-Stars. If we ignore all the winners and everybody that participated in TAR 11, you'd be unable to get a cast of 11 truly exciting AND competitive teams. At least the last Survivor Season was just HvV (but even then, I don't think they got the distributions correct).
-

No. TAR11 actually did have auditions. But all chosen teams were dropped when they decided to do an All-Star season.
Oh wow. [This upcoming season is only my second season here (including lurking) for TAR spoilers (and even then, I only wanted to see the cast pictures for TAR16 when they were first posted), so this is the first I've heard of that.] What ever happened to those teams that were originally selected for TAR11? Did they just become the TAR12 cast? Or did the producers just scrap them all and never bring them back for their real shot at racing?

Did they just become the TAR12 cast? Or did the producers just scrap them all and never bring them back for their real shot at racing?
I don't know. I think some did. Half of two other teams were directed over to Survivor to be on its Fiji season. (Earl Cole and Michelle Yi were the two who were.)

This is my wishlist for TAR AS2 - and it will include primarily TAR 4, 6, 8 and 12-16, deliberately excluding any winners or anyone who appeared in TAR11 and is designed to include certain teams who are popular/fairly strong/noteworthy/unlucky a second chance.
Ronald & Christina (TAR12)
Kynt & Vyxsin (TAR12)
Jon & Al (TAR4)
Kris & Jon (TAR6)
Mark & Bill (TAR13)
Mel & Mike (TAR14)
Toni & Dallas (TAR13)
Bill & Tammy of the Gaghan family (TAR8/FE)
Gary & Matt (TAR15)
Jet & Cord (TAR16)
Steve & Allie (TAR16)
12th team is one of the alternates or a TAR17 team
An earlier list I created somewhere else had five other teams, but since TAR15 and TAR16, I removed those and moved them to alternates and those are in bold.
Possible alternates...
Dennis & Andrew (TAR3), Colin & Christie (TAR5), Gus & Hera (TAR6), Lena & Kristy (TAR6), Don & Mary Jean (TAR6), Lake & Michelle (TAR9), Erwin & Godwin (TAR10), Bilal & Saeed (TAR10), Vipul & Arti (TAR10), Joseph & Monica (TAR9), Nicolas & Donald (TAR12), Margie & Luke (TAR14), Kisha & Jen (TAR14), Brad & Victoria (TAR14), Jodi & Christie (TAR14), Zev & Justin (TAR15), Flight Time & Big Easy (TAR15), Eric & Lisa (TAR15), Jody & Shannon (TAR16), Monique & Shawne (TAR16)
If I removed (or bent) the rule about no previous winners - I may be okay with adding Starr & Dallas (TAR13) as a hybrid team presuming they are still together in place of Toni & Dallas (TAR13).

1. Dustin & Kandice
2. Nathan & Jennifer
3. Kynt & Vyxsin
4. Toni & Dallas
5. Terrence & Sarah
6. Jamie & Cara
7. Kisha & Jenn
8. Flight Time & Big Easy
9. Jet & Cord
10. Some Team From Season 17

My route would be:

Leg 3 - Barcelona, Spain to Nairobi, Kenya
Leg 4 - Nairobi, Kenya
Leg 5 - Nairobi, Kenya to Harare, Zimbabwe

Other possible :Nat & Kat Jaime & Cara Nick & Starr

A few memorable teams that must definitely have another go since TAR Allstars, whether or not they're well-like or not.. but the presence of these teams will make TAR 18 one hell of a race -
Those in red are those whom i think has a huge chance of being invited back to race..
TAR 12 -
Ronald and Christina
Kynt and Vyxsin
TAR 13 -
Ken and Tina
Terence and Sarah
TAR 14 -
Margie and Luke
Tammy and Victor
Cara and Jaime
Kisha and Jen
TAR 15 -
Brian and Ericka
TAR 16 -
Carol and Brandy
Jet and Cord
TAR 17 -
Nat and Kat (based on popularity so far)
Brooke and Claire (based on popularity so far)
And so if they're including a few of the teams before Allstars, here's who i'll like to see make it -
1. Flo and Zach
2. Colin and Christie
3. Linda and Karen
4. Kris and Jon
5. Two of the Gaghans :tup:
And there's really no one else that are really memorable from the previous seasons that didn't make it on Allstars. Come to think of it, the producers did a really good job in casting for Allstars actually... :hearts:
Just that it didn't turn out well... :groan:
-
I really want to see some Pre-ARAS 1, teams on this race...
-
How far along is Claire in terms of her pregnancy?
-
about 6 months
-
about 6 months
Now that would be a challenge. To race in that condition:-)
-
Hmmm, i guess Brooke and Claire are out of the running. :(
-
If Brook and Claire happen to be our first all-female team to win, but can't do the allstar season after that will kill me!!!!
-
I really hope the next season is NOT an All-Star season.
The last one was okay, but it left a sour taste in my mouth, when a team that ends up winning it all, basically faked their relationship to get in the race in the first place.
But if they are going to have one, I'd say a representative from seasons 4, 6, and 8 should be included, since they were not in the 1st All-stars, with the season 8 team being reduced to 2 team members. And no previous winners or hybrid teams.
-
My top All stars would be
( all seasons 1 -17)
1.Blake/Paige- Season 2
2. David/Jeff- Season 4
3. Colin/Christie- Season 5
4. Linda/Karen- Season 5
5.Kris/Jon- Season 6
6. Nick/Alex (Linz) - Season 8
7.Tyler/James- Season 10
8. Ken/Tina -Season 13
9.Margie/Luke- Season 14
10. Jaime/Cara- Season 14
11.Meghan/Cheyne- Season 15
12. Sam/Dan- Season 15
13. Jet/Cord- Season 16
14. Steve/Allie- Season 16
15. Carol/Brandy- Season 16
16. Brook/Claire- Season 17
17.Gary/Mallory- Season 17
18. Nat/Kat- Season 17
It would be nice if they had 18 teams with 20 legs!
BUT It is probably not in the budget!
-
My personal All Stars from 12-17 only.
Season 12
Ronald & Christina
Kynt & Vyxsin
Azaria & Hendekeea
Season 13
Ken & Tina
Toni & Dallas
Season 14
Jaime & Cara
Kisha & Jen
Season 15
Brian & Ericka
Season 16
Carol & Brandy
Season 17
Gary & Mallory
Brook & Claire/Nat & Kat - Whichever one doesn't win. If neither win then both and drop Carol & Brandy.
If winners are eligible, which they don't seem to be "officially," then I'd have both Brook & Claire and Nat & Kat (assuming one wins) and drop Carol & Brandy. I'd also add Dan & Jordan instead of Jaime & Cara, and perhaps TK & Rachel instead of Azaria & Hendekeea. The rest of the winners can stay away.
-
If I was production, this is the teams and route I would pick.
Lorena & Jason/Azaria & Hendekea (TAR12)
Kynt & Vyxsin (TAR12)
Kelly & Christy (TAR13)
Terence & Sarah (TAR13)
LaKisha & Jennifer (TAR14)
Jaime & Cara (TAr14)
Lance & Keri (TAR15)
Maria & Tiffany (TAR15)
Flight Time & Big Easy (TAR15)
Brian & Ericka (TAR15)
Gary & Mallory (TAR17)
Nat & Kat/Brook & Claire (TAR17) - depending on which of them wins or doesn't win
I would just leave TAR16 out.
As for the route:
Leg 1: USA (not LA) - somewhere in New Zealand
Leg 2: New Zealand - Australia
Leg 3: Australia - Mongolia
Leg 4: Mongolia - Kazakhstan
Leg 5: Kazakhstan - Oman
Leg 6: Oman - United Arab Emirates
Leg 7: United Arab Emirates - Armenia
Leg 8: Armenia - Latvia
Leg 9: Latvia - Denmark
Leg 10: Denmark - Cote d'Ivoire
Leg 11: Cote d'Ivoire - Togo
Leg 12: Togo - USA (not LA - we've had too much of LA since All-Stars 1)
Clearly I don't like staying in one country for more than 1 leg! :mas25
