This thread is the WORKZONE of our spoilers.
This is where ALL the spoiler speculation/discussion of the TAR 32 race goes, NOT in the LIVE thread. It is where we try to thrash out what the LIVE sightings mean.
(If the start is LIVE, then we will use that thread for all sightings Start to Airport Departure.)
ALL Discussion of the LIVE Sightings and comments on them go here!
As always, per RFF's practices, we do not spoil the start location (if known) or any teams until it is believed that the teams are safely underway. We would never want to put a team in jeopardy or cause them distress or interfere with the actual running of the race. Info on future legs may also occasionally be protected for those reasons. But if you have info to share beforehand, we would love to know, so please feel free to PM or email me! Spoilers are treasured!
This thread will be opened once the race is beginning. (not quite yet! :0328:)
-
Teams are at LAX at 3 AM? They must have started the race at midnight! Now that's a sneaky twist. It'll probably be a couple of hours before they leave.
-
Wow. Well I guess they're off.
From the one pic it shows they're hanging out around Gate 72A.
Upcoming departures from 72A or 72B:
Denver - 5:15am
Houston - 6am
Honolulu - 8:24am
Kahului - 8:30am
-
Based on the teams we spotted so far, it looks like another "champions" season.

Excited to see maybe at least an Asian-American lady in one of the pics?
Also, no sign of any BB HGs? *knockonwood*

i was going to stay spoiler free this year but oh well maybe after the next 2 elimnations :lol:
-
Yayy :cheer: :conf: :woohoo: :bump:
There are some more instagram pictures from LA airport but nothing really new
And an instagram account that published a story about an amazing race challenge happening today and looks like its and instagram of a restaurant in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

Maybe its lsrael 7 fiming cause they were just in south africa? or maybe it is TAR us after all :cheer:
-
I see 3MF, 3MM, 2 FF so far.
-
I talked with one of the instagram users that published photos of the teams in LAX, he told me that he believe teams are going to Detroit.
...determined to be incorrect
-
A FEW THINGS:
All photos and Vids by others must be credited. If you can , please mark the photo with the owners name.
There is NO NEED FOR SPOILER TAGS HERE.
Thank you all, you are AMAZING!!

Perhaps they'll use Hawaii to connect to Survivor's favourite filming location.
-
Conversely, Dallas is also a strong possibility as it connects well to Latin America
-
Phil went to Nicaragua for the NatGeo Explore or whatever that thing is, so there's a possiblity that they go there as a new location now that they already know the country.
-
It could be a non-stop flight instead of a transfer flight.
If they show up in the states again in the next few hours, its transfer. If not, it's more likely to be non-stop.
-
United terminal
-
As to the night start, not knowing as of yet where that start line may have been, there are current two or more wildfires in the areas of Malibu, Thousand Oaks, and I just saw a social media post about a wildfire being spotted in Griffiths Park.
I can conceive the start being moved up from daytime Saturday to avoid wildfire impacts. That could explain the overnight start.
-
Loving everyone' excitement! But for easy reading let's keep this to spoiler discussion please.
-
Leafs will have more info soon.
But Phil did a standup we think at the Hollywood Sign, Mount Lee, Griffith Park.

One interesting departure from gate 72A but departs on 12:50 is departing to Shanghai

So, this flight?
-
Doubt they would have hung around in LAX for 14-15 hours. More likely to hang in Houston. Let's see what Oval has first.
-
Is Trinidad "confirmed"?
-
I think Venezuela or Guyana could be our 2nd destination then, which would be amazing start of the season. Just speculation ofc.

Venezuela is facing a serious crisis, I do not think it would be a possibility now,

They could then fit Suriname in for Leg 3 before going to Europe.

Was thinking the same thing, from Suriname there are flights to Amsterdam.
-
It'd be insanely cool if they took a ferry to Cayenne, flew to Nancy via Paris, and then drove into Luxembourg for the fourth leg.
-
So, this flight?
I found these?.
Now I AM seriously wondering if the fires made them advance the timeline? The could have moved up the start time and then hidden them in a lounge in LAX until the flights. The three PM would have worked for Phil maybe.

Griffith Park fire for later reference:
https://heavy.com/news/2018/11/griffith-park-fire-la-zoo-size-map/
-
Venezuela is almost to zero possibilities
Not only they have crisis, but also the safety of the racers
Either way, the racers can still go upwards for some Carribean countries such as Dominican republic
Or downwards such as Guyana,Suriname
Or even Europe
-
Here are the countries that Trinidad airport has flights to
Canada (Toronto)
UK (London-Gatwick)
Antigua
Barbados
Venezuela
USA (Fort lauderdale,JFK,Miami,Orlando,...)
Guyana
Suriname
French Guyana
Bahamas
St Lucia
Panama
Grenada
Out of all the destinations, I still think teams can still make connections in USA after they finish the Trinidad leg
If they go southern, they definitely make connection in Panama
London is also possible but less likely
As I see S32 route resembles S29 one
-
It's way more like 25 than 29 - so never-visited Dublin would make for an awesome second leg.

It can be
Especially Trinidad airport has only one flight to Europe
(It can be the teams make connection in US, who knows)
-
I expect this season go to some places where has warmer temperature, which means if they go to Asia, some places such as Cambodia/Malaysia are having a high possibility
-
They can even skip Southeast Asia because Taiwan has yet to have a cold-weather visit and its autumn is still milder than the rest of East Asia's.
-

I agree
Out of all Asia countries (The last visit season)
Japan (31)
Thailand (30)
Vietnam (31)
South Korea (29)
Hong Kong (30)
Taiwan (19)
Cambodia (15)
India (27)
Malaysia (24)
Sri Lanka (24)
Singapore (25)
Laos (31)
Oman (17)
Bangladesh (21)
Indonesia (28)
Due to the trend of revisiting the country in the recent seasons, I think Taiwan/Cambodia can have a real high possibility
-
A friend of mine who works at an axe-throwing place got an email from TAR people where they were specifically trying to cast lumberjack types. Makes me wonder if the yellow team is representing an axe throwing establishment.

I don't really know TAR will have a visit to some new countries
In East Asia, we have only 3 left (Myanmar,Timor-Leste, Brunei)
In Central/Souther Asia, we have a lot (Uzbekistan,Kyrgyzstan,Tajikistan,Turkmenistan,Maldives,Nepal,...)
In last season they made the first visit to Laos and Uganda so I think there should be 2-3 new countries in this season
Edit: I think Mongolia and Kazakhstan is way too overdue. Mongolia and Kazakhstan were visited 20 seasons ago. Can I see a Almaty/Ulan Bator/Vladivostok combo
-
There’s a fine line between speculating and discussion of spoilers and just plain speculation.
-
There's also a lack of wishlists because these speculations are based on previous races' patterns rather than pulled out of thin air.
But this thread is for speculation and discussion of live spoilers.
-
Except for the fact that Trinidad and Tobago is already confirmed as a location.
-
For all we know, it too may be a connection point. It wouldn’t be confirmed until they’re spotted on the ground.
-
Not when teams have been seen passing through Houston.
-
Trinidad and Tobago is located EXTERMLY close to the South American mainland!
Venezuela is most likely out of the question. Lot of political stuff going on there.
Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana come into play for Leg 2.
Of course, they can always back up north and head to Barbados, St Lucia or the Dominican Republic!
And, they can always head back to the United States, to cities such as Orlando, Dallas and New York City and connect at these cities. From these cities, they go to anywhere in the world!
-
Guys!! This is NOT a thread to discuss what places you want to see! We have other places for that and you are derailing the topic.
NO WISHLISTS HERE. Take it to the wishlist thread.
Intelligent spec on the NEXT location based on transportation etc is welcome.
Lists of places you want to see are not.
We say this every season, today we are all excited, so you are getting a one shot pass. I deleted your posts instead of temporarily "deleting" you.
Be wise!! :tup:
-

Connections don't work that way...
-
It's worth pointing out that we should be on the lookout for any info regarding the Extreme Roadblock twist introduced in TAR31, I don't think we heard much about it beyond the start. May or may not return for 32, but might be worth to keep an eye out for :spy:
-
The flight arrived in Port of Spain about 90 minutes ago. It's almost midnight there. I expect there's an Hours of Operation and there won't be much happening for the next 7-8 hours.
-
kinda OT sorry but TARUSAFan who is that in your avatar? I've been starring at it and I'm so curious lol
-

-
Apparently, from th images just linked in the live sightings thread at the airport in Trinidad, the teams and Phil are headed to Tobago.
-
Phil is boarding a plane, teams might be taking a ferry to Tobago.
-

thanks I thought that may be who it was! :ghug:
-
The latest sighting shows teams at the airport in Trinidad, but also shows Phil with the message that Phil is going to Tobago. I'm confused. Could this leg be starting in Trinidad and ending in Tobago? How will Phil do his stand ups in Trinidad if he's already in Tobago? Maybe Phil arrived in Trinidad early enough today to do them before sundown. It shouldn't be a problem for the teams to go to Tobago as there appear to be flights every hour or two.
Update: Upthread I see that Peach posted some flights to Port of Spain, one of which arrived at around 3:15 PM - 3:30 PM. If Phil was on that, it would have allowed enough time for Phil to get his filming done in Trinidad and fly on to Tobago tonight if the leg actually does go there. The reference of Phil going to Tobago could be an error too, but it doesn't seem like one a local would make.
-
Trinidad is the bigger island out of Trinidad and Tobago!
I would imagine teams would spend over half of the leg on Trinidad and then the rest on Tobago? ???
-
So I saw this video on Snapchat posted about 3 hours ago. Looks to be the same celebration in the same place (maybe?) I also attached the area on Snapmaps where the screenshot was taken from.
-
You got it!

-
They are at the Republic Bank Exodus Panyard.
-
Look for bandanas or a tag, teams MAY very well have a color coded one. I see blue on the MM Africa American team.
TAR production will be there with their packs as well. I THINK that new this season they may be having an extra "runner" with each team to handle fans/NDA's etc. That may vary from leg to leg. (go back and look at the 29 Venice leg where they were running in the Plaza for example) So a cute blonde with a small pack for example could also be a "runner" not a racer until we have the teams confirmed.
But y'all are AMAZING!! Will open the contestant thread in a bit and move some of this over there.
-
But why did they start in LA instead of Houston? They had to go there anyway to connect right? And we would have had another starting city instead of overused LA.
I hope this is a 12 team season, but not with an elimination like TAR10, it was so damn sad...
And I love that we maybe have a lot of FF teams, specially an asian and an African-american FF, because it was a long time ago since we had one of them.
-
Do you think there were HoO or ist 1st leg over already?
-
In the highly implausible event of a twelve-team cast, at least it doesn't seem to be a Starting Line Elimination a la 15.
-
Do you think there were HoO or ist 1st leg over already?
Clearly the latter because of the Carnival task on a Saturday night.
-
Catching up. Was Carnival in Trinidad or Tobago? Would be nice to confirm that with a schedule or tourist info?
Not thinking there are 12 teams.....
-

It was in Trinidad, specifically Tunapuna

Please let it be 11 Teams.

No, it's not Carnival in Trinidad & Tobago. Carnival is always the Monday and Tuesday before Ash Wednesday of every year there. They seem to have organized a special event with the panyard/ carnival costume models.
Does anyone know where they went after the panyard event?
-
Leg 2 should start today, right?
-
Not necessarily if it's a rest day.
-
So, how likely is it that teams are in Tobago do we reckon.
-
Ohhh, thanks, TARUSAFan.
So I think we have 12 teams this season then. I wonder if there will be some kind of TAR10 elimination?
Or, that dreaded double elimination, such as in TAR19....
-
I'm leaning more towards them finishing the first leg in Tobago earlier this morning. Phil appears to have been seen going through security, apparently on his way to Tobago. That sounds like he had been on the ground in Port of Spain already, and I don't see him heading there for leg 2 when leg 1 was just starting.
Monday seems more likely for a leg 2 start, though I don't really like the options out of Piarco tomorrow- it seems a bit sparse.
I'm wondering if they'll do a second leg in T&T or have an extended pit stop to get to better flight options on Tuesday?
My best guess is either connecting through Panama City to South America, or a visit to Barbados or Suriname before moving to Europe. Most other locations (esp. Guyana) are kind of dead ends in terms of moving onward to other regions.
I'm skeptical of them spending more than a leg or two in the Caribbean, so I'm not sure how likely Barbados actually is, but it does have descent connections onward to Europe.
I'm also doubtful they'd double back to the U.S. to connect onward.

Been going through Instagram stories, mostly people partying. Did find one of Phil doing a task description for the Carnival around 10 PM local time.
Based on this information and the fact that Phil was going thorough airport security around 12:15, I'm lean towards Carnival at night, HOO with staggered departures, and the leg ending in Tobago similar to TAR 28. Leg 1 should be over now.

There are daily flights from Trinidad to London Gatwick on British Air via St Lucia where they can connect to some European destinations.
-
Prior legs on the Caribbean have involved doubling back through the US as in Cancun to Scotland via Miami, or using connections to move onwards, i.e., Jamaica to San Juan to Miami for a final leg. Need to think beyond direct flights; oftentimes connections will be necessary to get from country to country. Using Miami, for instance, opens up flights to Europe, Africa and South America.
-
My thoughts are leaning west.. but ???
-
Maybe we had an HOO after the carnival task and a pit stop at Buccoo Reef?
-
My thoughts are leaning west.. but ???
I would like to see them go west.
If any route after Trinidad & Tobago needs to go through the US anyway, I would think anywhere is possible. Same level of cost and logistics for them to go westward or eastward? :duno: South America is also very possible before they again have the option to go west or east.
-
I think they might be doing something they did a lot in the earlier seasons. Probably they went to Trinidad, went to the carnival to look for departure times for ferries to Tobago, then completed a task in Tobago. Then they checked in at Buccoo Reef, the Pit Stop
-
At least there are having chartered flights to Tobago in the morning, which could have been faster. In the other hand, the ferry service takes exactly four hours and its slower.
I wonder a half a task in Trinidad at night, and the remainder of the tasks in Tobago by morning. It is OK to post here that remains a pure speculation.

They flew to Tobago.. or at least Phil did. You don't need a chartered flight. Caribbean Air has multiple flights all day.
-
There were three ferries from Trinidad to Tobago on Sunday the 11th. And only one of them arrived during daylight hours (dep 06:00 arr 10:00). So either all teams did that one or they flew.

Actually, there are two flights to Tobago within the same hour in the morning:
BW1500 POS-TAB 0544 (11/11) - 0611 (11/11) (scheduled 0545-0610)
BW1502 POS-TAB 0613 (11/11) - 0637 (11/11) (scheduled 0615-0640)
Those are the two flights provided.

3.9 isn't too bad...hopefully they slept thru it!
-
3.9!!!
I hope this race isn't cursed! :funny:
-
Out of Port of Spain, possible next destinations could be Buenos Aires or Mendoza Argentina, or Montevideo Uruguay. All have great one-connection flights on Copa Airlines, changing plane in Panama City en route.
-
Thanks TJ!
And reports are that the earthquake did not affect our leg area. Grateful :2hearts: :2hearts: :2hearts: !
-
And believe that the Argentina eating task has long been wanted for a second go!
Although my fave is Charla and the side of beef...such good memories.
-
There is so much more to see in Uruguay, they can do Colonia if they don't want to repeat Montevideo and Punta Del Este. That being said, it has been 27 seasons since they were there.
-
Since we know there was an elimination, do we know who it was by any chance?
-
Guys!! If we know we share. :groan:
Maybe help search for the next location instead? :kuss:
-
We should also look at Tobago Airport. and London Gatwick. Because if they're traveling to Europe there is a likelihood they'll connect here either on BA flights from POS or Tobago or a Virgin flight from Tobago.
-
Exodus Panyard (https://goo.gl/maps/xXuspxZT8xq). A small task there? A disjointed start (like Mexico City)? Seems like a lot of money to spend on a greeting party, even if it is a yearly event.

Seems they have a task as well:
The task at the Carnival was to play the Banana Song on the steelpan.
Was this the ACTUAL annual event...or solely for us?? ???

Did Leg 2 already happened and we missed it? It would be sign of no Europe in 2nd leg, I think.
-

Not sure. My Facebook is broken and nothing is popping on Instagram.
If they went to Argentina or S. America, we need to be really lucky to get sightings or have someone there to catch them!
-
Did Leg 2 already happened and we missed it? It would be sign of no Europe in 2nd leg, I think.
I have been looking into the hashtags #AmazingRace in Instagram
There are no sightings so far
I suspect the teams may go to the country or region which has low social media users in there
-
Extended Pit Stop?
-
All we know is that a team was eliminated,A team won a leg and we don't know them and we don't know the count and the country state of affairs :groan:
-
Did Leg 2 already happened and we missed it? It would be sign of no Europe in 2nd leg, I think.
Apparently, there are no sightings at least since last Sunday, as they could be likely in Europe for Leg 2.
-
or stay in the same country
-
I think if teams are going to Argentina, then maybe a city or region with low social media users would be the option. perhaps near Gran Chaco plain or near Andes?
-
proof
-
proof
I haven't any proof about that yet. It's just a guess.
-
Extended Pit Stop?
That's very possible. A late Friday evening start is nearly unprecedented. I suspect it's possible they meant to start Saturday or even Sunday but decided to start early due to the wildfires and heavy smoke in the LA area. The evening start would hide the smoke from the cameras and they can probably edit out comments about smoke or coughing. Presumably they could arrange to run the first leg in Trinidad & Tobago early too and are now taking an extended pit stop to get back to their intended schedule.
-
Interesting they start this season with drums when they ended last season with drums!
-
Also the flights to T&T are not daily, so that could have factored in as well.
-
Well I mean if there was an earthquake that could have effected flights. I think they are either still in T&T or a country with low social media activity.
-
3 Days of no sightings and no trace whatsover, really intriguing. Hopefully they turn out today.
-
this must be in Africa :groan:
Africa might be a far away from T&T.
-
Perhaps they’re in Guyana or Suriname? That might explain a lack of sightings. Plus, both Georgetown and Paramaribo have direct flights to Port-of-Spain
-
This is crazy. Tar33 is scheduled to start shooting in July even before tar32 and Tar31 have air dates according to reddit..But the real tea is, where are they now? :duno:
-
Where were there crews spotted in Säo Paulo? I'm not seeing anything on social media about it besides that one tweet. Also, are we sure it's even TAR crew?
-
Right, Varsha ShenShen333 has outright lied before ("spoiling" that the Skiers won, Jody got 2nd, and Yale 3rd).
-
I tried looking around as well (to no avail), but the tweeter has been a reliable source with regards to locations before, so I believe they simply found something we misses.
-
All I'm saying is that during S30 and S31 filming, Shen's twitter was a pretty reliable with locations, and there were times I saw something new there first.
This is just a lead that we could choose to follow and look around for anything we might have missed.
-
It's feasible- especially if it was an extended pit stop for leg 1.
Remember that we had thought we lost teams for like a day and half last season, only for them to pop up on what turned out to be leg 2- much later than we initially expected it to be running.
I would keep an eye out on Uruguay/Argentina for the next few hours, just in case it's an accurate lead.
-
There are to be NO personal attacks HERE on ANYONE please.
We are all in this together, we all interested in the same info.
Let's focus on TAR please, not the posters. ALL INFO IS VERY WELCOME.
-
TAR has wanted to redo the meat eating task Season 7 in Argentina for awhile. Switchback time? ???
(don't know why-- I hated that one, who wants to see barf??) :funny:
My thought is we have missed a leg. They rarely do an extended PitStop on leg 1 that I can recall.
But def possible to get from Trinidad to GRU this morning OR from a missed location in Panama, Suriname or Brazil.
SO KEEP LOOKING EVERYONE! :waves:
-
So based on that tweet it looks like at least 3 legs in South America.
-
I don't believe it says any such thing?
-
I assumed they spent 1st leg in TaT, 2nd leg (which we missed) somewhere else in SA (or still in TaT) and now they connected to Sao Paolo for 3rd leg in SA.
-
My thinking is that there may have been an extended pit stop in order to get Phil and production ahead of the teams.
Wasn’t there this exact same scenario for TAR 31 filming?
That ought to suggest a destination that requires connecting flights (plural) or a long distance. So to me, a leg 2 starting today also remains feasible, even if teams arrived somewhere late at night and had to wait for daylight.
This is just speculation of a possible sequence of events to this point.
-
I am just hoping we can all try to be as factual as possible. I know I try to use possible, unknown, etc when I am unsure.
There is so much we do not know...and some we do.
*Trinidad and Tobago are considered CARIBBEAN, even though they are geographically so close to SA, so that rules out 3 SA legs right there.
*Could Trinidad and Tobago be separate legs? Cannot be 100% ruled out although I would think not. ??? Even so, not SA.
*Is Sao Paulo us??
*If so, is it transit only?
* Where is next leg?
GRU has probably the best flights worldwide, it is a huge hub with flights everywhere. The world is open from there.
However, I do agree that we should be keeping a close eye on ARGENTINA and then possibly Uruguay. :tup:
As of this moment we have NO confirmed legs in So AM :funny:
-
When is Leg 1 supposedly ended?
Is it on Monday?
-
So, Sao Paulo is NOT confirmed as of yet? ???
-
Read the thread please. It is a possible TRANSIT.
-
There's a possibility our missing leg is in Manaus, Brazil. Can't be 100% sure, but good reason to think so.
Given it's the "Heart of the Amazon", it might mean we see the teams race through the rainforest :)x
I thought about this too! Although I still think we can’t rule out Guyana and/or Suriname
-
Oval and Peach if you need anything in portuguese to be translated, PM me
-
Just some possibilities!
Since we can assume that Manaus was leg two, and there is speculation of transit in Sao Paolo as well as Argentina and Uruguay as possible destinations.
Here are the direct flights from Sao Paolo to Argentina and Uruguay:
Argentina
Buenos Aires
Mendoza (where the TAR 7 meat eating task occured)
Córdoba
Rosario
San Miguel de Tucumán
Uruguay
Montevideo
Punta Del Este
-
Yes but if camera crews were seen in Sao Paulo yesterday, they were unlikely to be us, since teams (probably) were in still (probably) in Manaus.
We need to focus on where flights from Manaus go....
But if they left Manaus yesterday all bets are off. (thought to be unlikely)

Sounds like the tweet was talking about Gary/De’Angelo because they are the only mixed team.
-
Just a thought. If this season’s filming timeline is similar to TAR 31, then my speculation is that there is going to br two or three legs with extended pit stops to allow Phil and production to get ahead and then get teams headed to the next destination.
If camera crews were seen in San Paulo, we can’t be sure if they were coming or going, as some camera and production crews leap frog ahead, i.e., some are/were headed to leg 2 while others are/were headed to the leg 3 locations. And as to where things are headed geographically, it could be south to the southern tip of the Andes, last seen in TAR 11, or east to Africa especially Southern Africa, South Africa, Namibia, Angola, or west towards Oceania, New Zealand, or Australia. And being literally near the Equator in the center of the continent would make it hard to rule much out. (There’s an advantage of sorts to 31 routes to not overlooking alternative choices.)
If teams were filming a leg on Wednesday, and production needed a day’s head start to get to the next location, then not seeing teams travel by air until Friday makes sense. There is also a possibility of two legs being filmed in the Amazon. I’m opening to multiple possibilities.
-
So DeAngelo and Gary are not the first boots according that tweet from live sightings thread.
-
As best I can tell from this Twitter account (https://twitter.com/dejesusmarcelo (https://twitter.com/dejesusmarcelo)), there were/are events at Teatro Amazonas in Manaus each day from yesterday through Sunday, but not on the 14th (Wednesday). So, they could have gone there and it does look spectacular.
-
ShenShen seems to think Paraguay was leg2! and Brazil leg 3!
-
ShenShen seems to think Paraguay was leg2! and Brazil leg 3!
Production was at GRU on Wednesday and the Manaus sightings were yesterday. Paraguay on Tuesday would fit. They may still be in Manaus.
-
That route posted by Shen Shen seems unlikely as hell!
Trinidad & Tobago to Paraguay, than to Manaus, than to Bogota?
I find that very hard to believe.
-
What Declive said. Something's wrong with this picture =/
-
That route posted by Shen Shen seems unlikely as hell!
Trinidad & Tobago to Paraguay, than to Manaus, than to Bogota?
I find that very hard to believe.
Copa has a Monday night flight from Trinidad to Asunción via Panama City that arrives Tuesday morning. Then, there are flights via São Paulo to Manaus. These two are likely.
From what I see, flying from Manaus to Bogotá isn't as easy.
-
That's a back and forth route. TAR hasn't done that in years!
-
Is it possible they could of gone from Bogota-Manaus instead?
-
Logically what makes more sense to me (map-wise) is: Trinidad -> Manaus -> Asunsión, and than Bogota (which is not 100% confirmed) to be a connection for another destination.
-
Key Phrase: Not 100%
Please be Patient and don't jump to conclusions right away! :carryon:
-
I'm not sure Paraguay can work, I had them in Manaus as early as the 14th...
-
I'm not sure Paraguay can work, I had them in Manaus as early as the 14th...
This is what Shen listed:
-
FWIW, Bogata could make sense after that especially if the Race is headed to Oceania, New Zealand, or Australia, or a combination of them.
What’s interesting so far is the near complete lack of photos since teams left LAX.
Not clear to me whether Paraguay was before or after Brazil. That may come down to viable transportation options, and leaving room for production to stay ahead of teams, when possible.
-

I think with a bit of effort on Phil's / production's part it works out. Flying out of Trinidad first requires getting to Port of Spain somehow (teams on 11/12, Phil on 11/11 after finishing filming leg 1), then taking
CM 365 POS PTY 1736 1951
CM 291 PTY ASU 2116 0531 (+1)
for a morning leg in Paraguay. An extended Pit Stop allows teams to start in the morning of 11/14 (Phil on 11/13), where they can take
G3 7481 ASU GRU 1335 1635
G3 1646 GRU MAO 2110 2310
which allows for the sighting of production in GRU (they must have missed teams) and the reports of action in Manaus on Wednesday. Hours of operation allow for the leg to run on 11/15.

I agree with the first sentence.
About the lack of photos, it's perfectly normal. In South America, people hardly understand english or would even care to something happening like RIGHT IN FRONT of their eyes.
Also, TAR is not very known here in South America. In Brazil there are 209 million people, and the TAR fan base is like 1000 people only. Unfortunatly, the whole american culture is not very known in here :(
-
The destination would also be similar to S13 as it goes downward and all the way to the west.
-
But if they were headed to Oceania, wouldn't they be flying through Santiago/Buenos Aires? I think those are the only to airports in South America with flights to Sydney and/or Auckland
-
But if they were headed to Oceania, wouldn't they be flying through Santiago/Buenos Aires? I think those are the only to airports in South America with flights to Sydney and/or Auckland
No clue. We have to hope we get sightings tomorrow and hunt down the 16 to 18 individuals left (8 to 9 teams) if there were 3 legs already.
-

Those can be connecting flights from Columbia.

That’s not quite true. There had been Latin American and Brazilian versions in the past, as recently as four years ago.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Amazing_Race_(Latin_America). And I have no way of checking satellite streaming or cable accessibility.
-
Yes, we had a version of the show. Also not very popular.

Would production really fly from South America to Oceania? ???
That would cost a lot of dollars...

Plus, production buys 30 plus seats on international flights, with at least twelve and up to twenty flights per season. I don't think money is an issue.

In the trinadad Tobago article, it says 11 teams. Who is the 11th team guys? https://newsday.co.tt/2018/11/16/amazing-boost-for-tourism/#.W-8ZO5PffRI.facebook
-
Can someone explain why you think that Oceania could be next destination? Isn't that little difficult logistically? Flying to Europe is more easy, faster and cheaper, I think, but I am not flight expert. They flied to Switzerland after Columbian legs in TAR28 too.
-
1 week since Ar32 started and we have nothing ,no sighting of anybody. Production has won :clap2:

They haven’t been in Oceania, Australia or New Zealand in a while. Like South America, they’re due. Secondly, these areas are in springtime, which is also a factor. And they’ve been to Europe a lot.
-

They indeed won. They went on stealth mode. The route is interesting so far. Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago; Manaus, Brazil and if the speculated Ascuncion, Paraguay & Bogota, Colombia are correct, wow.

Except for the fact that 13 visited NZ during its autumn (as well as South America's last visit being only three seasons ago and Europe never getting skipped besides the exception in 2).
Also agree that something like Ireland's more likely for Leg 5 (in case 4 really is Colombia) and that if Australia does get a revisit, then it will be either during the midgame or late in the race.

New update from @ShenShen333 on Twitter that the Asunción leg is happening today! This makes a lot more sense route wise.
Leg 1: Trinidad and Tobago
Leg 2: Manaus
Leg 3: Asunción
Have the day off so will definitely be stalking all of the social media posts from Asunción :tup:
If they connect through Sao Paolo, flights get in to Asunción at: 7:25am, 9:35am, 12:55pm, and 11:45pm
-
I am really confused now, so Asuncion leg which is supposedly happening today is only Leg 3? We missed a one leg for sure, right?
-

You’re right, I shouldn’t have put leg numbers because we definitely could be missing one

It's only been a week and last season's first 3 legs also happened in a week's time so it's very much possible that we're only on leg 3.

Shen also posted a photo of Plaza de la Libertad as a possible location.
(https://cdn3.gbot.me/photos/z9/co/1511268334/-_Plaza_de_la_Libertad_in_-20000000016180866-500x375.jpg)

Phil posted a couple minutes ago. Wonder if there is leg going on or rest day or he's waiting for teams..............
I thinking he's taunting or throwing us off :funny:

That looks to be the beach in Tobago.

This plaza is a few blocks from Plaza Uruguaya and I have seen a few Instagram stories in the past two hours from plaza uruguaya of women in traditional clothing dancing to traditional live music. Definitely seemed TAR-esque and something to keep an eye on

It's from Tobago.

Nobody know right now...
Hang tight and hope for sightings!!
-
Switchbacks are usually ARI, right? So we should spotted all remaining teams, I guess.
-
So it’s probably safe to assume this is leg four right? Maybe we had two Brazil legs
-
Are Gary & DeAngelo just way ahead or do we think this is a Detour like the original watermelon stacking task?
-

Switchbacks are usually something that everyone has to do, except for the head shaving in India, so it’s likely ARI since it’s clearly not a Roadblock. It
-
If there is only 8 stations then it has to be leg 4 because that means 3 teams have already been eliminated. Unless it’s a side of a detour with a limited number of stations which just seems unlikely to me.
I would guess that there was two Manaus legs, maybe one in city and one out in the Amazon :duno:

Maybe it's a Switchback Detour (Watermelons or Harp) or a ARI (most probably)

Around a 45 minute lead on everyone (if task is ARI and not detour) for Gary and De’Angelo!!! Impressive

Do we think Gary & DeAngelo just got a really good flight or was there a task before this that they just CRUSHED.

I am curious about this too. They had 2 hour lead to 5 other teams right now.
-
Switchbacks are usually ARI, right? So we should spotted all remaining teams, I guess.
All the switchbacks I remember are 2 RBs, 1 FF and 1 ARI. So they can be different for sure.

Switchbacks from Detour tasks have been turned into mandatory tasks. Broken ox became an ARI. Gorge swing and basket bikes were turned into Roadblocks. Watermelons are probably an ARI.
-

All the switchbacks I remember are 2 RBs, 1 FF and 1 ARI. So they can be different for sure.
For Switchbacks there have been 6 Roadblocks (hay bales, pole vaulting, free falling at Batoka Gorge, bungee jumping in Greece, the shrimp bikes, & the phone), 4 ARI (the cheese, the spy briefcases, the broken ox, & the water slide), and 1 Fast Forward (the head shaving). They can definitely change things up though!
-
We can't be 100% certain it's an ARI tho considering its been 2 hours since Gary & DeAngelo arrived and only 2 other teams have come after them.
-
Based on the Asunción sighting by ShenShen:
3 teams are confirmed working with watermelon pyramid task
Asian M/F
Black M/M Footballers
Bearded M/M Axe Throwers
-
I have a feeling we might be seeing a lot of teams switch over from the bottle dance considering how hard it is lol
-
"The Roadblock is an elaborate dance that must be performed by one team member while balancing a bottle on his or her head. In what might be a first for The Amazing Race, there is an automatic two-hour time penalty built into the task should the participant break all of the allotted bottles without completing the dance." from a season 12(?) recap)
So this time it becomes a switchback Detour!
-
Ha! Told ya a switchback can be anything!
I already really like this leg.
-

GP can you tell us which teams were seen doing dance task if you know? Thanks
-
Only 8 Watermelon workstations. Which means 3 Teams are gone? We know Trinidad & Tobago was an elim, in the article Peach posted in the Media Thread, the Tourism Secretary said it herself. Manaus Brazil had 2 Legs? There is also a possibility that there are less workstations that the total teams running the leg. I suddenly remember S.27 Argentina Leg 2, where there are only a number of carts in the Cartoneros Detour and the Track Stars flustered when the Cousins got the last cart.
-
Looks like we have four confirmed teams so far (DeAngelo & Gary, bearded guys, and both red teams). I’m so glad we finally have some action!!
Also, it’s cool we finally have an Indian team make more than just one leg
-

LEAVING BOTTLE TASK
(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb140/ga--peach/TAR%2032/Ascuncion/12%20Red%20team.jpg)
I would describe them as south Asian, which could encompass Pakistani, Sri Lankan, Indian and Bengali, at a minimum,

The indian team is the one checking in, isn't? Hope they weren't last.
-
Was Docal by any chance close enough to hear the their placement?
-

It was definitely them and not the other ones. You can see the girl’s braid and pink tank top in the first photo. Even if they are last, I wouldn’t be surprised if this was a NEL
-
I just was looking at flights from Asunción!
Most flights are to South American countries...
However, they DO have flights to Madrid and Dubai, so keep an eye out for these destinations for the next leg! :tup:

So this time it becomes a switchback Detour!
This was happened in S20 as I remembered that the last two teams struggling with the task before heading to the nearest pitstop. Vanessa & Ralph vs. Elliot & Andrew, right?

The Roadblock was before the Detour, right?
-
The Roadblock was before the Detour, right?
Possibly.........

Teams who checked in pit stop and made it to 5th leg:
Indian MF
Asian MF
James & Will
Bearded MM
2 not seen teams
Teams who still didn't check in Pit Stop and are in danger this leg:
Deangelo & Gary
1 not seen team
Right? Now watch this supposedly epic leg to be killed by NEL.
-
For somehow, Paraguay is confirmed in Leg 4 according to Peach. I do really think Manaus would have 2 legs there.
-
Peach mentioned landfill/garbage. This is a task related to something seen in the documentary Landfill Harmonic. I've only seen clips, but it's so cool. Check it out! A school with instruments built out of recycled materials.
-
We are missing leg 3 could be second leg in manus or colmbia
-
I have a bad feeling if all F/F teams would be knocked down again earlier just like what happened in S28: Social Media Stars where Marty & Hagan, Brit & Jessica, and Erin & Joslyn were eliminated earlier in the first 5 legs. Hope there's one F/F team or two survived the first 3 legs.
-
Just wait guys, lots more coming!
-
Hopefully the video of the dance Detour will reveal some more teams!!!
-
Just wait guys, lots more coming!
:bow:
I'm biting my nails
-
Looks like we found the eleventh team!
-
With 6 teams spotted, at least 1 FF has been eliminated already.
-
Hey, Peach. It's Will & James. Jarnell is Will's last name!
-
Very Young FF team in Black (brunettes)
This is the asian FF team, right?
-
Educated guess that the Yellow MM was in the top 4 because I remember Peach posting they finished the detour.
I think the Indian MF checked in before the Asian MF. Asian MF picture looks darker.
-
Hey, Peach. It's Will & James. Jarnell is Will's last name!
Will Jardell had previously participated in ANTM Cycle 21: Guys & Girls. He was placed 1st runner-up.
-
How do we know the last team was FF team when nobody saw them?
-
How do we know the last team was FF team when nobody saw them?
Maybe whoever Peach’s contact is heard their names being used but we don’t know any of their names (i.e. Phil said ‘And Brenda & Karen are STILL at the Roadblock!’ But who are Brenda & Karen)
Just speculation on my behalf though :duno:
-
So we've lost the orange M/M, african american M/M and a F/F prior to this fourth leg.
-
Sad news from these sightings: looks like there’s only 1 F/F left
Good news from these sightings: 2 M/M got knocked out (and not the beard boys, my preface favorites :lol: )
And did we discover our mystery team?

Speculation:
What if this leg is planned NEL, but FF team was so far behind, so instead of waiting for them at mat for a long time, Phill leaved to take break for food or something?

Possible but remember, they have a schedule they want to keep up with to make sure filming goes as smooth as possible

I expect that food would be brought to Phil rather than take a chance that the team would show up while Phil wasn't there.

I can't believe the yield is back. They must have seen TARAsia Season 5. I am so excited to see the yield and U-Turn in the same season. I am so happy. :conf: :cheer:
-
^^ There hasn't been a U-Turn sighting yet. It may appear, or they may just be using the Yield.
-
I expect that food would be brought to Phil rather than take a chance that the team would show up while Phil wasn't there.
I mean Phil & production at Pit Stop have idea where the teams are for sure. (They knew that one team didn't leave roadblock yet this leg.) This could be the case where one team is just soooo behind in NEL (Nick & Vicky, Bopper & Mark comes to my mind).
-
^^ There hasn't been a U-Turn sighting yet. It may appear, or they may just be using the Yield.
Ok
-
As far as I can recall, Phil has never gone to a last place team for an NEL. If he’s gone to an team that hasn’t checked in, there’s every reason to think it’s an elimination.
-
Nick & Vicki, Bopper & Mark.
-
Nick & Vicki, Bopper & Mark.
They all checked into the Pit Stop. Phil has never told a team outside the Pit Stop that the leg was a NEL.

There it is our 11th Team. A M/F Team. ovalorange can now update our Timeline. :tup:

So it is safe to assume that there were 2 Legs in Brazil??

Personally,I think it is always best to not "ASS"ume anything without a sighting.
But oval is pretty sure about Manuas ...and that is good enough for me
-
So it is safe to assume that there were 2 Legs in Brazil??
I think that’s very safe to assume, despite us not having 100% confirmation. It couldn’t have been a second Trinidad and Tobago leg because I’m sure we would’ve got more sightings.
-

Couldn’t team 8 (African-American girls in turquoise) have been eliminated prior since we only know that the Asian girls were present this leg?
-
Past experiences tell that there is no way 4 teams have been eliminated in week 1 ,either the 1st team is not the 1st team in most cases.But if Phil went off the mat, it means it will be an elimination for a team that were late. Look for the number 1 team please :welcome: :welcome: :welcome: :duno:

There is No way 4 teams were eliminated in 4 legs, No way...The first team may have come way before all and we may have missed them.Clearyy will n James ain't celebrating imo :bow:

No NEL before F7 happened only twice in last 17 seasons - TAR21 & TAR29.
This was EL, we need to admit it. There was Yield so EL make sense.

TAR29 did it in recent history

Another thought... Are we 100% sure that this leg was raced by 8 teams and not 9? We are assuming it based on 8 stations at watermelons detour, right?
-
Looks like Mid-Race NEL's again. Like TAR 21 & TAR 29.
-
Another thought... Are we 100% sure that this leg was raced by 8 teams and not 9? We are assuming it based on 8 stations at watermelons detour, right?
The task with the 8 stations set up was one half of a detour, and for those types of tasks, historically, the set up is in case all teams chose to do the same side of a detour. And with that leg being the fourth leg f the Race, it would fit that the three prior legs were elimination legs.
And as far as I can recall Phil has never gone out onto the Race course to the last team when all other teams has checked in, except for an elimination. Otherwise, Phil and production would just wait for that last team to check in. (That has happened a few times, but I would have to search out when.)
-
Well Phil was GONE and no further team was seen checking in. Unless they let them finish and it was HOURS later...but remember Phil has to get moving to the next location generally, so sometimes he cant wait around.
ALSO HUGE storm there RIGHT now...we may run into airport delays (unless this was planned as an extended stop anyway??)

Any thoughts on where we are heading after Asuncion?

Zambia!
I prefer teams going to South Africa, Botswana, or Namibia would be the choices since Zambia was visited since S27 and Zimbabwe twice on both S27 & S30. If teams should head to Europe, my guesses would be Germany, Spain, or Portugal then.
-
Any thoughts on where we are heading after Asuncion?
Zambia!
Its just a guess. Sao Paulo is definitely a connecting point for a flights to Africa if teams should stay southward into eastbound. South African Airways has a direct flight from Sao Paulo to Johannesburg.
-
There’s also flights to Australia and New Zealand through Santiago and Buenos Aires- they could be going anywhere.
I’d keep an eye on those South American airports, though:
São Paulo
Buenos Aires
Santiago
They have to go through one of those to move on

extended pit-stop seems to be likely after finishing loads of SA legs, and waiting for long trans-continental flying
Asuncion airport has only one trans-continental flight, that is Madrid, Spain. If for connection, they may probably use Santiago or Buenos Aires as connection, and head off west to Australia

Could have TAR13-esqe route, where teams fly from South America to Oceania? ???
-

It's possible. Asusncion has flights to Santiago, which has flights to both Sydney and Auckland.

How long extended pit stop usually take? Should we expecting some sightings tomorow?
-

There hasn’t been a standard length for pit stops for a long time. So we don’t know. It depends on where the teams are headed, and the needs of production that are traveling with or ahead of the teams.
-
And perfectly possible they were leaving tonight as well.

I am putting this in the discussion thread because it’s not new information but I responded to the guy that spotted Gary and De’Angelo at the Port of Manaus on twitter and asked him if he saw any other teams and when he saw them and this was his response:
“Los vi el jueves 15, y fueron los únicos que vi en el momento, pero en la noche de ese mismo dñia me encontraba en el mismo hotel donde se alojaban y vi a todos los equipos.”
Translation: “I saw them on Thursday the 15th, and they were the only ones I saw at the time, but on the night of that same day I was in the same hotel where they were staying and I saw all the teams.”
I responded to him with pictures of the 4 teams not seen in Asunción so we could possibly get more clarity on the boot order, so we will see if he responds :tup:

From LS thread
Phil was constanly operateing a cellphone, and you could clearly hear what he was saying. In some point he goes: one team hasn’t left the roadblock yet (it was the F/F team i will further refer to) and one tea mis really struggling at the watermelon task (DeAngelo & Friend).
Team barded, indian and asian were resting in the tends when DeAngelo and his friend arrived. They were soo static and frantic about still being on the race as team number 7.
We then sat and wait for over an hour and overheard some guy saying: “The ladies are still somewhere on the route, we are just waiting for them”
All of sudden, Phil is gone….but the mat and everyone else stayed. I had to come back home for some health issues i told Peach about, so i couldn’t confirm it it was indeed a F/F the one team missing. I have no idea if they came to the pitstop or Phil went to them.
So maybe Phil really just needed to go to toilet or something (and then came back)? This gives me hope.
-
i waited a lot for him....he was nowhere to be seen
-
The fact that production travelled to Sao Paolo makes me think that it’s an eastward route. Santiago would have been a more logical connection point IMO for a westward route. Just spec of course!
-
i waited a lot for him....he was nowhere to be seen
Did cameramans and production still wait at mat after Phill left or not?
-
So it can't be confirmed that there was a Yield? Just that there is a possibility there is one?
-
i CAN'T confirm 100 % that my ears heard in the right way..... :duno:
but i remember paying close attention and i think the word that came out of Phil's mouth were: "what were your thoughts when you saw that yield sign"
back to the final team.....cameramen and production STAYED....so did i, but Phil was gone! i have no idea what happened....maybe Phil went to eliminate them or they came later on.! it was over 9 PM by the time i left....for that las team, it was more than 7 hours of racing and they were dead LAST :'(
-
What would be considered a eastward route ?
-
Leaving São Paulo tonight there are also flights to Lisbon, Milan and Frankfurt. Let's not disconsider those.

I guess maybe Phil left to visit that unknown team's place since they were in last and didn't finish the task and maybe had a time penalty? With a time penalty like that automatically eliminate that team.
-

One that goes towards the east? In an easterly direction?
-
Well, I guess there's still at least a tiny chance that this was a NEL, so keep holding out hope :cmaslol

Asuncion has direct flights to Santiago. If they truly wanted to go west at this point, why go from Asuncion to Sao Paulo and then to Santiago? It seems out of the way.

That being said, i have a strong feeling about Lisbon. Madrid would be my 2nd big feel as well.

I don’t know that one can assume Europe at all. They’ve travelled due east to Africa and west to Oceania, New Zealand or Australia in the past, and westward has been less recent than eastward. Just my $.02.

Madrid hasn't been visited yet ever on the Race so I'm keeping a lookout for this. I'm also looking at Germany, the country hasn't been visited in a while. I'm speculating on Ireland, Finland, Hungary and Romania as potential visits given the trend in recent seasons of visiting undervisited countries. They could visit Slovakia, Latvia, Luxembourg, Andorra which are good choices for the Autumn season, new countries.

Frankfurt, Lisbon & Madrid are my guesses too.

Come to think of it. It might be the case as well. We might have 7 teams in the running to lessen the costs should they fly westward to Oceania. The flights in from SA to Oceania are expensive. There's even a flight from Santiago, Chile to Papeete, Tahiti, French Polynesia.
-
Its just a guess. Sao Paulo is definitely a connecting point for a flights to Africa if teams should stay southward into eastbound. South African Airways has a direct flight from Sao Paulo to Johannesburg.
Even though the flight(s) to Africa is a way lot cheaper than expensive flights to Europe or Oceania.
-

I doubt that.
-
Lots of speculation here.
But remember that some production leapfrog legs.
So one guy headed to Sao Paulo just means he could be picking up a flight to the leg after next.
So lets just ALL plan on helping with searching for sightings tonight/tomorrow and we'll see what happens!!
-
There is flights from Santiago to Cape Town and Johannesburg!
There's also, ahem, a flight to Mauritius...
There's also flights to Melbourne and Auckland, but would production pay $1,500 a person? ???
But, if teams are leaving from Sao Paulo, then Europe would be the most logical option...

It makes more sense if this connecting flight from Saõ Paulo would let production go to Africa or Europe. But if they wanted to connect to Santiago, and get to Oceania, that's another different story.

There second leg in Paraguay
-
Not that it's out of the question, but I'd guess that since that last tweet was in past tense, that the person may have referred to the leg the other day, not that they're currently filming. (But maybe they are?)
-
That last tweet, or at least the supplied translation from Spanish is quite ambiguous. “Another” can be taken to refer to another leg in Paraguay or just another leg for the show that was the one leg there.
-
4 legs in SA? unlikely for nowadays race, especially it is leg 5 already.
-
Maybe they are filming the departure for Leg 5 (Teams leaving Paraguay).
-
As Docol posted at the live sightings thread, the teams are filmed in Asuncion on leaving Paraguay.
NOT what that says.
-

NO Claude!! That is NOT what that says...just some guy saying TAR was filmed in Asuncion. NOT A SIGHTING.
-
I also doubt a second leg in Paraguay. The only feasible thing I could see them doing is an Iguazu Leg
-
If they were headed anywhere in Western/Central Europe, there would surely be sightings galore. Hence, if after a certain amount of time there are still no sightings, maybe we can expect Africa? They disappear for a while in parts there.
-
Or Australia, simply due to the travel time and time change - they loose almost 2 days just getting there. It's possible?
-
Again, I’m doubtful of Australia. São Paulo has no flights to Sydney or Auckland. I think we’re beating a dead horse here.
-

Plenty of flights via Santiago. :tup:
At this time we have NO evidence for teams in Sao Paulo. Only one crew who could be leap frogging or heading home for all we know.
Y'all know what happens when you ASSUME too much right? Let's keep ALL options open.

There is some social trouble in France since Saturday. Thousands of people who are against tax, oïl price and the politics of our president blocks some roads. There is no syndicate so it's not a strike and there is a few organisation (at this time, 2 are dead and around 600 injuries, there is also some racist and homophobic acts). So, maybe that TAR will avoid France for this season.

Thanks for the update freds!

From those pics at the beginning of leg 4 posted by Shen on twitter the blonde f/f are pictured, so that means they were the f/f team so far behind in Asunción, and the orange m/m, African-American turquoise f/f, and African-American blue m/m were first three boots.

Not entirely knowing enough about the teams yet, I'm figuring the blonde in that photo is with the manbun guy...
-
Shoes are match for blonde FF. Not sure about manbun guy.
-
Pure spec, but it’s completely feasible that they go to Luxembourg by train from CDG
-
Manbun guy looks like a bystander at the airport or he might be a passenger. He's holding what it seems to me a cellphone?? Teams aren't allowed to bring phones unless provided by production. I would speculate that teams might have asked him for help. The cameraman is filiming on the lower right side of the photo.
On second look, it looks like a deck of cards. Manbun guy is showing card tricks to the teams?? They all seem to have fun.
-
He is a professional Magician. He's the one who posted the photos.
Looks like he decided to entertain them!

Paris Pit Stop on Pont des Arts.

Is the Paris photo showcasing a pit-stop?
I think I saw a mat in the photo
-
Yea, and it looks like the Bearded dudes checked in.
-
It is, here's another view.
-
So Leg 5 is in Paris, France. Yellow M/M team spotted checking-in pitstop mat with Phil.
-
An update about the weather in Paris. Today in the morning, a little rain and a really small snow. Tomorrow in the morning, around 32-38 degrees Fahrenheit. If they goes to South East France (Lyon, Nice), there will be rain. The social trouble decrease in France.
-
Question for Peach and the detectives. How fast can production respond to changing conditions in a country, such as social unrest? With a route planned in advance, can they move a leg on short notice such as a day? How would they print up all the clues, ste up tasks, etc.?
-
Legs have been cancelled on short notice before. Am sure our amazing producers have it al figured out, but sadly can't help with any details.
So far as we know, all legs so far have been planned.

Beards could potentially be team 1.
Looks like the sighter saw everything be set up and saw a team check-in also!

Refreshing , :zz:

For those of you here looking for updates:
Are you helping?? :gman:
Here are some ways YOU can bring us the next sighting!
Search IG and Twitter and FB and any other social media you use. Compulsively. :d025:
Pick key words ("Amazing Race", possible departure airport, current city, any team name known, Cameras, filming, Phil....you get the idea!) Be creative!
Then come share! :cheerleader: Do remember that ALL posts and pictures should be credited to the poster.
IF you find something about a FUTURE location, do NOT post until you ask one of the mods or experienced posters here.
We never want to endanger the Race by telling the world exactly where and when they might be ahead of time.
Which is the same reason we share here in a closed forum and NOT in public on twitter or FB.
But go....search...have FUN...and then come be an RFF star!! :grupo:

All my initial first impression teams, team 🍊mm, AA-MM, AA-FF haven't been seen since Day 1...still having hope that 1 of them is still there.but not all 3 are in :amen: :amen:

Let't say Kazakhstan really is our 6th leg destination.
What would be next? I think Africa might be out of this season because of logistical reasons? 6 legs in Asia? Or Asia and then endgame in Australia/New Zealand/Oceania?
-
I may be looking too much into it, but Shen put 3 different train emojis on their most recent tweet so maybe we should be looking to see if anyone posted anything about the race at a train station or on a train in Kazakhstan .

2-3 legs in Asia, then 2-3 legs in Oceania?
If so, would it be the first season with only 1 leg in Europe?
-
Now Shen added a stadium emoji to their new tweet. Any popular stadiums in Kazakhstan?

TAR5 already did that.

Racing on Thanksgiving Day also happened during the Blind Date and Social Media Editions, eh?

Just a wild speculation and probably totally wrong but Phil has posted on instagram a picture with his dad saying "Who remembers “Hi I’m Phil’s Dad ... welcome to New Zealand” #AmazingRace #TAR13 listen to my chat with Dad on my #buckitwithphilkeoghan podcast #thanksgiving @buckit
So this might be nothing more than a podcast but I wish it was a clue that they are going back to New Zealand and maybe meeting his dad again!!!

I was thinking the same thing. Especially with the visit to Kazakhstan.

Watching that video, there's a tall guy dressed in black in the background just standing on a platform amid all the fighting. I don't think it's a racer, but it could be someone with production. I could be wrong though. I don't think I see any racers in that video. Anyone have any thoughts?

Maybe that is a production person and they’re filming the task for Phil’s explanation

Some popular stadiums in Kazakhstan are: Astana Arena and Central Stadium.

It'd be bizarre for them to revisit without also going to Australia as the two have alternated appearances since forever:
Both - 2
AU - 4
NZ - 5
AU - 9
NZ - 13
AU - 18
NZ - 22
-
So after Kazakhstan, I think we can rule out the train option to go to Urumqi (The XinJiang Region in China)
Because there are re-education for the Uyghurs that Chinese government wants the local government to do
And some UN representatives have been talking about this situation
======================
I can only see them use plane option after Kazakhstan
- The possible connection can be in Europe/Asia like S13 did
Frankfurt
Moscow
Dubai
Kiev
Beijing
Istanbul
Seoul
St Petersburg
Delhi
Bangkok
Kuala Lumpur
Hong Kong
So I advise we can look out for HK/Beijing/Bangkok/Kuala Lumpur/Moscow sightings in airport
Just a spec, I think they will head to Malaysia/Singapore/Thailand
-
A Turkey visit would be really cool.
It would make sense in both upping the number of European legs, and could act as the hub before heading to East Asia.
-
If Oceania is next, we can almost lock on to search them in Kuala Lumpur or Hong Kong airport. :duno:

Singapore is also another good connection point for Australia! :tup:

On the contrary, Cambodia's way more overdue.

Guys, I revisited some of the old live sightings threads for fun, and this is what I found in TAR19 thread (1st leg).
Team 9: F-F with dark hair 1110
Team 10: Blonde girls 1132
Team 11: Older couple Not seen from airport onwards, not arrived! >> very lost? Phil leaves the MAT and goes to Dept store ~12 noon ( Phil seen walking down the upwards escalator, shooting a stand up) Phil came back to Mat much later, still no team
Conflicting info...did Phil do an onsite elim at the Dept Store?? (spec=ish) OR *new info* one observer says older couple arrived at MAT about 4 PM and were NOT eliminated!
I just wanted to say by this that it's possible that Phil leaved mat because blonde girls were so far behind in 4th leg, and then he just came back to NELed them like he did with Bill & Cathy. I am still keeping my hopes up for girls, lol.
-
Nice, keep hope alive for blondies' F8 NEL.
-
Then it's possible it was a NEL, because it was reported that the Mat and the people at the pitstop didn't leave.. Maybe the girls were so far behind that Phil knew he had 2-3 hours to wait before they would check in. If he left to eliminate them, then the pitstop and mat people would have packed, no?
-
I think this is optimistic, esp since they were not seen
after.
on the mat.
Bat as always: NOT seen does not mean NOT there!

The only team which was seen after Paraguay leg was bearded MM team, no? Or did I miss something?

I changed my wording. A better way to word it would have been "on the mat".

https://twitter.com/fearlessandfar/status/1052133485110915072?s=19 the last time I saw khazkstan was on a BBC documentary by Mike Corey.i hope Tar tops this with its visit to khazkstan
-
That would be a fun task!!
-
In fact it would be a switch back to tar26 :welcome: :funny:
-
Not exactly though...that one was Namibia!
-
So the Instagram account that Xoruz posted about posted another video on her story talking to some dude and you can hear him say "Americans" over and over again.
-
Berlin & Paris! I love them both! That's why I'm guessing it's in Berlin. It's been so long since S22. :2hearts:

Where was Berlin confirmed? Am I missing something?

Berlin was visited since S22. I like the RB task with the labyrinth beneath the nightclub.
-
Did Kazakhstan leg happen yet or not? I am confused...
-
That video yesterday could have been a rehearsal. Which means the racers should pop up today if there.
-
In Berlin, it would be neat to have a task related to the Ampelmännchen (the figure used on the pedestrian street crossings and now a symbol of Berlin) or the Berlin Buddy Bears. No evidence for either of these... but I was just there in the summer and am just brainstorming some cultural things they might mine. (Also currywurst...)
-
Kazakhstan is 13 hours ahead of EST.
We saw videos that looked like the real deal.
The current time in Kaz is now almost 8PM on the 24th. The leg would be done.
Not sure of a second leg. We have some evidence that Northern India is (or WAS) possible. But not ruling it out either.
-

God I hope that's true. A visit to Srinagar would be awesome! If the Indian team makes it there, it'll be quite a treat.

That wouldn't be possible. Albeit Srinagar is safe and frequently visited by tourists, there's way too much violence and hostility at the Indo-Pak border. They can't risk going there tbf. But believe me, if they do get to go to Kashmir, I'd be over the moon

Not this time.

Like I said guys, this was just a possibility. But be alert!
And we are not yet sure of a second leg in Kazakhstan either so be aware of that.
The leg could have been expanded if India was cancelled but do not know for sure.
-
The only interesting thing now in India is Nick Jonas. Lol :bump: maybe they could tap in to that 😂
-
Champions' Edition and Reality Clash each had just two countries with a double-leg (France/Zimbabwe and Vietnam/Switzerland), so Kazakhstan may be the only other one besides Brazil.
-
Dang, this season is dry as hell in spoilage. :cmaslol
It feels like most of what we're following is Shen's twitter, and I can find absolutely nothing using the usual search methods that used to be successful.

The fence in the photo with the Indian couple being interviewed matches a fence at the Park of the First President in Almaty. Possible pit stop for this leg?

Thank you!
I think the pitstop should be nearby. Looked at the instagram stories and there is a lot of beautiful scenery. No other teams as of now.
-
This was from an IG story at Park of the First President about 7 hours ago. It's hard to tell, but in the very back it looks like there's a big white lighting kit either for a pit stop or for another interview. You can see two people standing there like they're being interviewed. :duno: Really hard to see though, especially because I had to lower the pic's quality in order to post to RFF.
I wonder if this "wedding" had anything to do with the show.

Reverse of the Russian Bride task? :lol:

You can see 3 different brides at that photo, so this is not normal wedding for sure. I think it's TAR related.

If there's a slight chance that Leg 4 was a NEL, then maybe the Light Pink F/F team should be safe. However the case of EL if it weren't for Phil to leave the mat while the Light Pink F/F still working hard and also came in dead last place. :'(

They could still be stuck at the detour :funny:

-
How could Leg 3 be NEL when there were only 8 teams on leg 4 and 11 teams to start?
-
Do we know for sure that there exactly eight teams left on Leg 4? No chance someone's gone out of sight for a leg or two and might show up later, as is sometimes the case?
-
There were 8 stations at both detours.
-
I only saw 8 working stations at the watermelon task. I assume there were 8 working stations at the bottle dance challenge.
The fact that the mat stayed makes me think that leg 4 was a NEL, considering the first 3 eliminations

Joberio,
Please review the Timeline.
This sighting is unequivocal. Please stop.

Speaking of that season, either its NEL-TBC sequence or 29's will be reused a la 16 for 23.

Long time lurker here :) Did an image search and that looks to be in Hyderabad. First time visiting that place then on the Amazing Race!

Correct, I believe the picture was taken from the viewing platform atop Charminar Gate in Hyderabad, India. A first time visit for The Amazing Race, with this country not being seen since Season 27 in 2015.
Hope everyone is looking on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook for photos in Hyderabad.

Perhaps leg 10 will be somewhere tropical (Brunei?) before a penultimate finish in Australia. Fingers crossed!

Right! Leg three! Forgot about that! Then again, any season in which a boring alpha-male team won I try to forget.:-P
-
If New Orleans is indeed the finale, I find it doubtful they would fly straight from, say, east Asia to New Orleans. Maybe leg 11 will be in Canada?
-
ShenShen speculates (pure spec.) the 11th leg will be in Seoul, South Korea.
I agree with her in the sense that they must go to a big city in Leg 11.
-

I agree with you too. Shenshen's predictions are quite true. so Leg 10 must be somewhere in Mainland Southeast Asia or East Asia maybe Cambodia or Taiwan then head to South Korea for a penultimate leg?
-
I'm thinking the 10th leg takes place in India again, than the 11th leg goes to Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo or Seoul. My guess only.
-
N'awlins would make an awesome finale. But as we just had a finish in Detroit, in the recent trend of alternating seasons, I'm more likely expecting it to be LA-vicinity or maybe NYC again.
-
Usually a start in LAX means a final leg elsewhere. And an east coast or gulf coast in that context would make some sense, given TAR 30 in San Francisco and 31 in Detroit.

Vancouver finally appearing on the American edition as a penultimate leg with an actual Canadian Pit-Stop and Jon Montgomery as the greeter sounds like the best thing ever!

May 22, 2019, I think 31 will air. They announced Amazing Race will air May 22, 2019. Probability 31 because they announced that it would be Amazing Race vs. Survivor vs. Big Brother
-
I'm thinking the 10th leg takes place in India again, than the 11th leg goes to Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo or Seoul. My guess only.
Yeah leg 10 would most likely be on the same city or taking train to somewhere else in India (maybe Chennai or undervisited southern part of India idk) and penultimate leg would likely in South Korea like ShenShen speculation given SK visit in 29 have little to almost no sightings. lol
-
They may just skip the capital city and go to either Busan or Jeju Island.
-
If the finale really is New-Orleans (and I doubt they would cancel it because some twitter profile spoiled it, let's remember that the S31 finale was spoiled weeks in advance and they still filmed there), there really isn't that many international connections there (no Asia, only Canada, Panama, and some places in Europe and in central America)...
My question is: As it happen before that they don't fly directly from the Leg 11 destination to the finale? Like a layover in another American City, or in another country?
Like last season, London to Detroit was direct? Hong-Kong to San-Francisco in S30, etc.
If no, then we may have a Leg 11 in Canada?
-
It’s just as likely there would be a connection to the final city if no convenient direct flight; one example that comes to mind is season 5 where teams connected from the Philippines to Dallas via Calgary.
-
TAR25 also had teams fly from Manila to LA via Tokyo instead of taking a direct Philippine Airlines flight (which would've likely been fully booked already anyway) that arrives around 9am.

Did they? I know there are direct flights from Manila to LAX, so they could very well have taken a direct flight. Unless of course you know for sure, as I do not.
In my mind, the last time they made a connection was in 26 (Trujillo to Lima to Dallas) and before that 23 (Tokyo to Seattle to Juneau). Before that my memory isn't so great. Definitely 5. But the rest? I think had direct flights.

Yes. I think Phil or someone else posted an IG pic of him at Narita during that time (between Manila and LA). But also, teams specifically flew out of Terminal 1 in Manila. All international Philippine Airlines flights (the only direct to LAX) fly out of Terminal 2.
-
If the finale really is New-Orleans (and I doubt they would cancel it because some twitter profile spoiled it, let's remember that the S31 finale was spoiled weeks in advance and they still filmed there), there really isn't that many international connections there (no Asia, only Canada, Panama, and some places in Europe and in central America)...
My question is: As it happen before that they don't fly directly from the Leg 11 destination to the finale? Like a layover in another American City, or in another country?
Like last season, London to Detroit was direct? Hong-Kong to San-Francisco in S30, etc.
If no, then we may have a Leg 11 in Canada?
TAR 30 had the teams took the flight from Hong Kong to San Francisco via Taipei which they could've booked a Cathay Pacific nonstop to San Francisco.
-
All interesting but back to 32 please.
Chateau pointed out that the ONLY international flight into New Orleans is from Panama.
All others would likely require a change in LAX or Dallas or Atlanta or elsewhere. Strange indeed!

Was that Will and DaAngelo & Gary in the photo?

Yes. Don't know about Will, but there's no doubt with those dreads about D'Angelo & Gary

Can somebody ask that lady to identify F5 teams for us, please? :luvya:
-
Our final six:
DeAngelo & Gary (F5)
James & Will (F5)
indian MF
mom & dad
beards MM
6th team - ??? (please be FF team!!!)
-
Whoop Will and James :D
-
The fact that we have 5 teams at leg 10 ,means we have the NELs all wrong and it also proves Leg 4 was Not a NEL which means Pink FF were toast..and I guess leg 7 wasn't a NEL :ghug:.someone needs to tell us what the order of NELs was, coz they don't add up...so if leg 10 is EL, they remain 4 ,and leg 11 could cater for the Last NEL. Means leg 12 will have a final 4 . That would be so obvious and production ain't that obvious.We have The N.E.Ls wrong. hope we get clarity :amen: :welcome: :dick
-
More like 29's NEL/TBC sequence got reused.

Occam's Razor: cheaper to send fourteen racers across the Atlantic than sixteen.

Wonder if they made the obligatory visit to Angkor Wat

As long as they avoid a situation like 27's misuse of the Taj Mahal.

So whose teams are still in?
-
The NFL guys DeAngelo/Gary and the BFs James/Will based on that Khmer-bound plane pic.

Am excited to see who comes out on top.Normally we never miss a sighting in the Final plane to USA.Fingers crossed. good luck guys :tup:

Trying to sort out the elimination
From the timeline, Leg 7 had a speedbump so Leg 6 is NEL and Leg 7 is an EL leg.
The only realistic elimination order is non - eliminations for top 8, 7 and 6 for a Leg 10 top 5. I don't think they would do back to back NELs. (Correct me if I'm wrong!)
Here's the scenarios:

Nevermind i just saw the Speedbump thing.
Are we sure the Speed bump was for the first Kazakstan leg (and not the second?)
-
Why I thought speedbumb was in Leg 8? It was in Leg 7, which is changing situation, lol.
So blondes NELed in Paraguay "confirmed", I think. :cheer:
-
So indian MF was last seen in Leg 7 (F7).
Mom and dad was last seen in Leg 8 (F6).
Beard MM was last seen in Leg 8 (F6).
Based on this, we cas assume:
F6 - 3 remaining MM teams, mom and dad, 2 other teams.
Was last NEL in Kazakhstan II or in India? What do you think?

Is back-to-back NELs like the last NEL legs of TAR 11?
-
Most likely we are having leg 4 (Paraguay), 6(Berlin) and 8(Kazakhstan 2) or 9(India) as NEL. Wonder the production will do consecutive NELs nowadays. Last time we had that were S11 already.
-
I bet it’s 5 (France), 7 (Kazakhstan part 1), and 9 (India).
-
I think Leg 11 is most likely in East Asia
Taiwan/Mainland china are the places to watch
-
I bet it’s 5 (France), 7 (Kazakhstan part 1), and 9 (India).
Precisely.

Could Cambodia be leg 10 instead of 11?

Five teams were reported flying to Siem Reap, so most likely Cambodia is leg 10. It can't be leg 11.

Based off the photos, it appears we have our Final 5:
East Asian M/F
South Asian M/F
Yellow M/M
D’Angelo and Gary
James and Will
It also sounds like ‘Mom and Dad’ came in 6th, since they were seen in Kazakhstan

Hello, first time poster but have been lurking for a while now. Just saw this on instagram.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BqrxTIYHWtK/
According to the post, they were filming the amazing race. Its the First Presidents Park in Almaty, which is where they were interviewing the Indian team. In the video on the post, you can also see those big white light panels in the background. The dresses also look like the ones which were shown in a picture (which I can't seem to find).
Check out this instagram post. It's a slideshow and the last video shows Phil doing a standup/presentation. You can't hear very well what he says. It's obvious that this girl was part of a group of dancers that they were there during the filming. Maybe they were the pitstop greeters.
-
So I guess there's no F/F team left then huh? It's frustrating tho to see most of the seasons where F/F teams got kicked out so early on the race.
Cheers to James & Will for making this far, I've known James from the AfterbuzzTV, so I'm rooting for them.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, please.
11th - afroamerican MM / afroamerican FF / orange MM (LEG 1)
10th - afroamerican MM / afroamerican FF / orange MM (LEG 2)
9th - afroamerican MM / afroamerican FF / orange MM (LEG 3)
8th - blonde FF / dark haired FF (LEG 5)
7th - blonde FF / dark haired FF (LEG 7)
6th - mom & dad MF (LEG 8 or LEG 9)
Final 5 - James & Will, DeAngelo & Gary, beards MM, indian MF, asian MF

Manila caught me off guard. Lol. Tar Israel was just in Philippines for a very recent leg which we confused for USA. But now it's really there lol :crybabe: :dance: :badhorse:

Might Cambodia to Phillipines be KOR? Seems like a short time between legs.

A 5 person penultimate leg? I don't think that's possible.

If TPTB chose to have F5 elimination at Leg 11 and the final elimination at a early point of Leg 12 as was done for a few seasons, then it could be possible. Hasn’t been done that way in the past, but definitely possible,

Task at the Post Office. Involves multiple tables/stations with food. Teams are going to be here in a few
Balut and/or Filipino street food task? :cmaslol

Marked jeepneys near Pitstop(?). There are five of them :o

-
Well, since they're in the Philippines at this time, considering the country has the "longest Christmas season" in the world, I wonder if they'll do something related to that as well. That would be great.
Plus it would fit in perfectly if TAR32 ends up airing Fall 2019 :cmas16

(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb140/ga--peach/TAR%2032/Manila/Dirk%201M.jpg)
This looks like the Lapu Lapu Statue in Rizal Park/Luneta which a little bit away from the Liwasang Bonifacio/Manila Post Office where the tables and kalesas & horses are set up.
Could they possibly ride the kalesa from Liwasang Bonifacio to the Lapu Lapu monument after the task?
-
Sent to Dirk! ^^
-
Yeah, it's very close to where the kalesas & horses are set up. You could easily walk between locations about 15-20 minutes even.
Would be interesting if teams head somewhere else in Manila after the horses and then come back to Rizal Park for the Pit Stop. Though I know there have been very close Route Markers like this before.
-

Fun fact that may or may not be relevant lol:
November 30 is Bonifacio Day, a national holiday in the Philippines honoring national hero Andres Bonifacio of whom that statue in front of the Manila Post Office is of.

Where is the M/F team the survived? They must be waaaayyyy behind!!!

Vloggers arrived
If Vloggers arrived after the Asian team, does that mean the Asian team is 1st?

In terms of the calendar date they’d lyose a day. If the IDL crossing was perfectly timed, they go could back two calendar days. :tup:

It appears the teams met with Phil at Lapu Lapu Monument BEFORE leaving in the jeepneys to wherever and then doing the tasks at Bonifacio Square and Mehan Garden.
-
From the video posted by Johanna Prepena Solatorio on FB which she has kindly made public with thanks to jpsucks @ Sucks, the four teams are meeting with Phil by the Lapu Lapu Monument/Statue of the Sentinel of Freedom.
It appears Phil is giving instructions then says "Alright, good luck" before pulling something (doesn't look like a clue envelope) from his back pocket.
-
That set up with the teams and Phil looks weird. Maybe a new twist?
Yes! Or a battle
-
I’m only surprised that the two teams that were ID’ed on the first day are still there.
As to Phil, is this a KOR situation? It’s otherwise is hard to figure out unless a 13th leg has returned and Manila is hosting two legs.
Probably should have put it here. Were there three or four teams with Phil at the monument? Because it would seem a leg 11 EL may not be this time.
-
We are also confused as to why teams met up with Phil here at the Lapu Lapu Shrine ("pitstop") and then have to go back here

Looks like four teams because there are 7 backpacks that can be seen.
I immediately thought partner swap, but then the purple team was seen racing together after so probably not. Though it would be shocking to do it on the Penultimate Leg lol
-
Is it possible for the last task of the leg to be happened right at the map, where Phil is giving out the instructions immediately when teams arrive at the mat? (i.e Like head-to-head but not a battle)
-

I believe that’s what happened with the final task of the penultimate leg in 31, so it’s possible. But there was a mat and a greeter in 31

Was there some sort of mid-elimination or another final four heading back to U.S.?

The video of Phil with the teams was before the Post Office though.
Also, if we are to believe the Final Leg is on Monday, teams would have to leave the Philippines tonight (Sunday night) to get back to the US on Sunday night as well, at the earliest. The direct options for that schedule are SF and LAX of course and then teams connect to anywhere else in the country.

I wonder who the guy in the track suit could be. He looks like PBA basketball player Greg Slaughter. Which would make sense with the height, but otherwise would be very random as a greeter lol

Didn't basketball was popular there as we have basketball task in TAR25 visit, and then there's much more random greeter in the past.

I don't think that's Slaughter though. He wasn't sporting a beard when he played for Gilas last Friday. Well, unless he grew them quickly.
-
Yes, basketball is very popular in the Philippines.
Cocoa said yes though. If it's him, (he's Filipino-American) I wonder if he had signed on for the gig before the roster for Monday's game was announced and now it would be awkward to wear his Gilas gear so instead he has to wear that plain tracksuit which makes him look very random as opposed to him wearing Philippine team gear hehe
-
that's not Greg...not with that receding hairline
seems to me more like EJ Feihl, retired bball player was very popular in the 90's

^^^ True!

Any pics of NFL team checking in?

That's definitely less random then hehe.
Great work Cocoa, dirk and friends!
I wonder what the task(s) between Mehan Garden and the Pit Stop could've been to have pushed DeAngelo and Gary an hour behind. That's always a rough way to get eliminated when they were all so close earlier?
-
Quick check on Wikipedia apparently he's the tallest basketball professional player in Philippines.

Maybe we missed a U-Turn somewhere? 1 hour behind is a lot of time!

Also, is the pit stop near the National Museum of Natural History?

could be a very difficult performance task...maybe tinikling dance? lol

Looks like right next to the statue of Lapu Lapu which I know is between the National Museum of Natural History and the National Museum of Anthropology/Filipino People and next to the Relief Map of the Philippines, iirc.
could be a very difficult performance task...maybe tinikling dance? lol
Possibly! Or Pandanggo which would be very similar to the Paraguay Switchback lol But it's about time they had a traditional cultural task in the Philippines :cmas22
-
this is what I saw from one of the locals (hired prod)
Airport
Lapu Lapu statue
Ocean Park
Seaside - walk in stilettos
Binondo - dancing cup(?)
Liwasang Bonifacio - feed the horse
Mehan Garden - marching band task
Museum of Natural History (right in front of Lapu Lapu statue) -pitstop
Ooo! Dancing cup = Pandanggo? hehe
Looks like they kept this Leg packed within and around historic Manila again instead of having teams brave the traffic farther out. Which would have been a task by itself lol
-
yes! pandanggo has cups
or maybe maglalatik dance, it also has coconut shell cups hahaha
-
All of them should be on the journey to the airport now that this leg is over. The flight back to New Orleans (if this spec is true) would be very long and need at least 2 connecting flights to do so.

IIRC flights out of the Philippines to North America usually have needed a Tokyo connection to the US. Whether that is still the case, I have no clue. I won’t speculate about where in the U.S. per Peach’s request a few days ago, but the first connection point would be a clue.

Team NFL *may* have encountered taxi/baggage problems. Not 100% sure though

Yeah their first connecting point would need big East Asia hub like Seoul, Tokyo, HK, Taipei or even Osaka (That 5 airport is my bet on their first connecting point) in order back to US. So we need to keep an eye out on that given late night Dec 2 GMT+8 flight out from Philippines is the best timing to arrive East Asia hub on early morning Dec 3 and catch US flight there. Hopefully we have several airport sightings in Manila later on to giving us speculation/hint on final destination.

that's not Greg...not with that receding hairline
seems to me more like EJ Feihl, retired bball player was very popular in the 90's
Interesting. Ivan Saldajeno, who's posted a picture of the Post Office in Manila and a selfie with Phil, says he's a basketball player on his instagram account. It does appear however that he works as a sportswriter and blogger.

Def an elim per the live sighters.

It's interesting that we've seen at least 3 M/M teams that consist of professional athletes eliminated at 4th place. First was Matt & Redmond on TAR 29, then followed by Alex & Conor on TAR 30, and then this time another professional athlete alpha male team was eliminated at 4th place. Is this the born of a new TAR curse?

Although I wouldve preferred not going to France, this route is amazing

I think 2 legs in Almaty is to Much. Beside that i love the Route. Can't wait to see the final city.

Yeah I agree, going again to France is not my favorite thing but overall the route is pretty good!
I was hoping for Oceania as Leg 11 but we will have to wait more.

Although I'm still bitter about no FF team at least in the Final 5 :groan:, I'm so happy for James for accomplishing his dream to compete on TAR. I'm rooting for him and Will all the way! It's nice to see a superfan wins the whole race cause we know James is the biggest TAR fan.
Also I'm rooting for the Asian M/F team cause I'm Asian LOL.
I can't wait for this season to air on TV.

Unpopular Opinion: I kinda wanted an all male Final 3.
Also, that Asian girl looks very short.

I wouldn't mind it that much this season tbh because there were 5 MM teams so it's not like TARCAN3 where all 3 MM teams casted made F3 in 12 teams race.
F3 without MF team really needs to happen. 32 seasons, lord.

Here's my two cents for NFL being an hour late at the penultimate mat:
After the purple team finished their task at Liwasan, we immediately followed them heading to Mehan Garden.
Purple went to Mehan first, then beards then NFL WITH NO backpacks.
At Mehan, while watching the teams fixing or arranging musical stuff when suddenly both NFL team went out of Mehan (there's only a specific gate where they enter and exit, we were outside of the gate) outside Mehan, I heard the braided guy said "This is not the city hall!"
I initially thought they were at a wrong place (not Mehan but somehwere else) or they were missing a place before getting to Mehan. It didnt make sense to me at all coz the other teams were doing the task
Later on, a friend who stayed at Liwasang Bonifacio when we ran to Mehan told me that the NFL were panicking searching for their cab.
They paid for the cab driver but still left their luggage in the taxi. And my friend heard the NFL saying "to the city hall!"
NFL went to Mehan Garden without their stuff.
My spec is that the NFL, directed their cab driver to the city hall so that they can run without their backpacks and later realized that the next location was not the city hall itself, but Mehan Garden near the city hall. I have a photo of the NFL without their backpacks running to Mehan.
It prolly took them an hour to search for that cab driver who got lost in their way
-
Wow yogibenj! That's great info!
Sad for the NFL guys to possibly have gotten eliminated because of that. But it will definitely make for a dramatic episode!
-
How strange, what a weird time to be concerned about your backpacks. Most teams would literally ditch them hours later at the start of leg 12. Guess they were worth a million dollars :)x
-

Probably left their passports in them. More risky in Manila than in Moscow though.

If that's the case then they should have used the TAR-sponsored fanny packs. One of the much needed things in the Amazing Race Club. I'd ditch the backpack as long as the passport is not there.
-
Here's NFL entering Mehan Garden. They don't have their backpacks or even fanny packs with them. Twas a 10-15 minute run from Liwasang Bonifacio to Mehan Garden. They left their stuff in the cab.
-
In red circle is an unconventional clue box. Only the Purple team found it right away. Beards already doing the task. NFL currently third. They didnt notice the clue box for like 5 minutes.
The truck in green circle is where they will get their musical instruments. We really can't see it from where we were.
After 15-20 minutes they went outside the gate searching for their cab then I heard the braided guy saying "THIS IS NOT THE CITY HALL!"
-
Are they in Pittsburgh?
-
Did teams land in final destination yet?
-
Are they in Pittsburgh?
No, that's what Peach asked me to write. The photos are of Jackson Square and the Crescent City Connection in New Orleans.

So excited we’re getting a New Orleans leg!! :conf: :conf:

Seriously... I'm in New Orleans. If y'all can give me a heads-up where they are heading (especially in the Central Business District/Warehouse District during working hours), (or where they might be headed after work hours) I might be able to chase them down.

You should send a message through here or an email to Peach. That sort of information won’t be posted before there is a live sightings of teams being actually there.

Looking at the videos of the teams catching beads, I'm thinking they have to catch a particular color string of beads, maybe their team color. Possibly red and yellow for TAR.

These were red and one yellow caught on the YT video. I would say they have to catch a certain number. Not clear if for example each teammate has to catch their own color as an ARI, or if this is a roadblock or detour.

Looks like one team member has to catch yellow beads and one member had to catch red. After catching a certain number of beads, teams got the Roadblock clue and have to travel to their next location via parade.

Just a quick speculation. The Saints Football stadium as a finish line or location. I have no information but the fact that it help protect people from the hurricane and it’s a popular football team I would not be super surprised if it was visited. Also no events there tonight.

Finish is NOT The stadium....
Adding this 12/6:
This was MY misunderstanding. I take full responsibility for any confusion.
I thought the "stadium" that was being discussed meant this location:
(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb140/ga--peach/TAR%2032/Finale/saints%20practice%20stadium.jpg)
(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb140/ga--peach/TAR%2032/Finale/Saints%20Stadium.jpg)
This "stadium" had been ruled out.
I had never heard the SuperDome referred to as the "stadium". In Atlanta, the "dome" and the "stadium" are two entirely different things.
Entirely my misunderstanding, and I apologize again for the confusion. :-[
-
Okay, so this is spec but...
ShenShen posted a video from inside the dome, where you can hear Phil (but can't really see) say the X number of countries, X miles to the winners, and he says:
11 countries... so I think we are missing one!
Options:
- Between Leg 1 and 3 (either close to Trinidad or only one leg in Brazil and another one in South America somewhere)
- Between Paris and Berlin (Luxembourg maybe?)
- Somewhere between/Kazakstan
- He's counting Trinidad and Tobago as 2 countries..
https://twitter.com/ShenShen333/status/1070344760341262336
-
Could the potential missing leg be Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan? (just speculation/wishfull thinking)
-
If not, then either Georgetown, Guyana or Paramaribo, Suriname.
-

I doubt there would be three legs in one country.
If there was an eleventh country, it would almost have to be on the way between two other countries for part of a leg, or we had 13 legs.
-
Kygyzstan is not Kazakhstan :funny:

Certainly those are the two countries lying in the same region into that same cultural background. Both are former Soviet republics. They shared Russian as their second language.

Sorry for my confusingly short comment, I just wanted to point out to theschnauzers and others who might have confused those two as being the same country. ;D

Yes, that's what I think too. We don't really have much for Brazil anyway, so I guess all the sightings were for the same leg (leg 3)
-
What we had I think, but we missed Leg 2.
-
Wait if we didn’t have two legs in Brazil, did we just have a season with one double leg ??????? When’s the last time that happened
-
I don’t think we ought to assume Brazil was one leg, if prior information suggested two legs. We had this same concern as to Laos and Vietnam for the season 31 filming, which also involved early legs in very similar circumstances.

Bogata is now confirmed for LEG 2.
If you have some way to make Brazil work as two legs with that info do let us know so we can all figure it out...
Remember we have ZERO sightings for the presumed first Brazil leg. I think Manaus is correct, just that we missed Bogata first.
And I now don't see anyway to have Bogata and THEN two legs in Brazil. Right?
I am going to rely on Oval to figure this one out myself. :luvu:

The distinction here is whether there are 12 legs or 13. I’m not making that assumption is all. Just like the uncertainty with last season with Laos and Vietnam. One option then was a partial leg in one country and the remainder in a second, which as far as I know, wasn’t ruled out in that situation and could also be in play.
-
Leg 2 is Bogata.
Pretty sure Leg 3 is Manaus. That's the only way I see it working?
Think we are likely still at 12 legs but will need oval to look.
Y'all do some looking for those dates please? Not to late to search FB/twitter/ IG

Yeah, the 3rd team is FF, but I have no idea which one. Both sisters teams wore really similiar backpacks and shoes, so I can't identify them based on that. Is that blonde hair under these black caps?

The key to this mystery is the backpack is the white thing hanging off the backpack.
There is a chance that this is the blonde team!
We don't have really good pictures of the FF teams backpacks but, in Trinidad, there was something white hanging off of one of the blondes backpack.

The video was approx. here (https://goo.gl/maps/YscFPFMo6AN2), along the East Side Gallery; teams seem to be jogging NW at a "pitstop" pace.

Great job, fossil-racer! I am also thinking this is the blonde FF team because we can see a little bit of blonde hair under their caps.
This means that Victoria & Michelle were eliminated at 8th in Paris and blondes were eliminated at 7th in Kazakhstan I.

I’m not seeing blonde hair...

Yeah, but per the timeline, there was speedbumb in Leg 7, which means Leg 6 was NEL.
So here are the options...
First NEL at Leg 6 with 6 teams - not very likely, it would mean only one EL and 3 NELs in 4 back to back Legs (6,7,8,9), based on the fact that we had 5 teams in Leg 10.
Back to Back NELs at Leg 5 & Leg 6 - I doubt it.
NEL at Leg 4 - most likely scenario. I personally believe this happened. Just because Phill didn't wait at mat like idiot for blondes who were so far behind and took a break instead, there was that field elimination rumour.
-
The point being there are still options. Leg 4 is not confirmed to be a NEL.
-
So in the TAR31 season preview, it seems Phil conducts the U-Turn vote himself with all teams present.
Remember in the Manila Leg when we had sightings of all teams meeting Phil at the start of the Leg? Perhaps there's a U-Turn vote on the (penultimate!) Leg in Manila as well?
It would explain why all the teams would be there with Phil.
-
Great thought! That makes sense.
-
Are you sure he's conducting the vote though?
He might just be announcing it with all teams present, like the partner swap, but they might get to strategise alone and vote later?
-
I think we had the top 3 checking in within minutes of each other that leg. So if that's right, it's likely NFL got the raw end of the deal... on top of their backpack issue :(
-
possible!
-
Could we have a final 4 voting Uturn in Philippines?
Thats why Phil was with the teams?
-
It would make sense if it was a U-Turn Vote. Based on the timing of the sightings, the bulk of the Leg, if not the entire Leg happened between the first sighting of teams at the monument all together with only Phil and the sightings of teams checking in with the greeter present.
Unless there's a new twist or something
-
The leaked reunion image contains most of the Final Eight, the missing racers being Patrick and his teammate a.k.a. the unknown East Asian woman, the McKibbin brothers, and Will.
So there's the chance that the volleyball boys and/or that co-ed couple burned enough bridges with the rest of the F8 that lingering animosity persists to this day.
-
Or they just had something else to do that day hahah
-
Phil has tweeted a cofirmation of sorts that next season will be a regular person season. It’s on his Twitter account.

I'm looking at the timeline,
Isn't there a video of Haley & Kaylynn Williams running in Berlin.
Was that in my head lol? Has it been confirmed?
If so, that would mean that they at least survive until Kazakstan 1 (because we heard Phil talk about a speedbumb in Kazakstan 1 WHICH means Berlin was a NEL)

Is this the first time they’ve filmed two consecutive seasons the same time of year? 32 is pretty South America/ SE Asia heavy bc of it being filmed in the US’s fall. They need to do something different. Afaik the only reason they didn’t film a season this spring/summer is that 32 was rough on the production team and they wanted a break. That may be wrong but I think Phil said it was three weeks in before they even slept in a bed.
I remember Phil saying 32 was one of the toughest season for them to film.
He said it was tied with 3 for toughest.
He did say that on his podcast when Rob & Brennan were guesting. I wonder why it was so taxing on the production crew...
I wonder if they had to do replacement Legs during the season. I'd think that could be taxing on the crew.
The Manila Leg screams replacement Leg, for example. And not even a long planned one lol You could literally walk to most of the Route Markers in an hour. Two hours if including Manila Ocean Park. lol And the tasks aren't very elaborate that need lots of planning.

And Paraguay leg was just copy paste of TAR20 Leg 3...

Is this the first time they’ve filmed two consecutive seasons the same time of year? 32 is pretty South America/ SE Asia heavy bc of it being filmed in the US’s fall. They need to do something different. Afaik the only reason they didn’t film a season this spring/summer is that 32 was rough on the production team and they wanted a break. That may be wrong but I think Phil said it was three weeks in before they even slept in a bed.
I remember Phil saying 32 was one of the toughest season for them to film.
He said it was tied with 3 for toughest.
He did say that on his podcast when Rob & Brennan were guesting. I wonder why it was so taxing on the production crew...
I wonder if they had to do replacement Legs during the season. I'd think that could be taxing on the crew.
The Manila Leg screams replacement Leg, for example. And not even a long planned one lol You could literally walk to most of the Route Markers in an hour. Two hours if including Manila Ocean Park. lol And the tasks aren't very elaborate that need lots of planning.
It was heavily rumored that they were going to Seoul for the penultimate leg so I bet something fell through with that and they had to go to Manila at the last minute
-
It might well be possible to semi-verify that by seeing whether there had been developments in the disputes between the United States (and the South Koreans) and North Korea in that time frame. That would be the sort of thing in that region that would triggered a shift to a secondary backup leg.
-
This cast is so friendly with each other on social media. They actually reunited several times after filming. I would assume this could be peacuful season ala TAR19 based on that. Hopefully I am wrong because I want drama, lol.
Feel bad for them for having to wait so long for their season to air though.

SPEC: Manila, Philippines was MIGHT HAVE BEEN a last-minute change (as an alternate country) after a speculated leg in Australia had cancelled and was replaced by the Philippines.
Seoul, South Korea was last visited in TAR 29 that was too risky to film in that area two years earlier.

One year ago today, The Amazing Race 32 was filmed here in my home country the Philippines where the future teams went to Manila, the mayor at that time was Joseph Estrada, a former Philippine President and a former actor.
A year has past since the filming, Manila has drastically changed a lot into an environmentally-friendly and clean city,
with street vendors and overcrowding places in Northern part of Pasig River as well as dirty scattering areas in the city's districts were completely wiped out thanks to the newly incumbent mayor, who is an actor himself like his predecessor.

Looks Like the Startingline is Hollywood Bowl.

The Amazing Race will premiere season 32 with a special 2-hour long episode on May 20.
My biggest question is; do we know how the format of the premiere is going to work? Meaning, is it going to just be the first two legs back-to-back as two 1-hour long episodes, or is it going to be the first leg but extended to fit a whole 2-hour long episode? I'm personally hoping for the latter.
Survivor often does "2-hour premieres" like in seasons 17, 28, 34, 36, and 40, but it's just the first two episodes shown back-to-back. But for The Amazing Race, they've only done that once, for TAR15, over a decade ago. The difference though is that was likely planned as that was for a special twist (12 teams, starting line elimination, first time the first Pit Stop was a non-elimination, then leg 2 elimination) so that 2-hour premiere actually flowed together well.
The one and ONLY time Survivor has had a true 2-hour premiere was for season 20. Meanwhile, the last time The Amazing Race had a true 2-hour premiere was back in TAR9. Though the most recent extended premiere was TAR26, which was a 90-minute premiere.
If the TAR32 2-hour premiere is just the first two legs back-to-back, and they are both elimination legs, then for the first time in the history of TAR, we will already be down to 9 teams by the end of the first night. That's never happened before and it seems unnecessarily rushed, especially when there are a lot of holes in CBS's Summer (and even Fall) schedules due to the Coronavirus.
But also, is TAR32 even worth a full 2-hour long first leg? I know the TAR26 90-minute premiere is heavily criticized because it felt unnecessarily dragged-on, but I also argue it's mostly due to poor race design. The Detour for that episode is notoriously known as one of the most uneven Detours' ever, with one side taking barely ten minutes, and the other, taking several hours. If the TAR32 first leg is actually well designed, then I think a 2-hour long premiere could work.
What do we know for sure? Could leg 1 be a non-elimination? Could leg 2 be a non-elimination? Or are they both elimination legs? If they are both elimination legs, I just find it hard to believe that CBS would want to burn off 2 episodes in one night that fast and already be down to the final 9 that early, especially with all the holes in their scheduling. But I also find it hard to imagine CBS giving TAR a straight-up 2-hour premiere since it hasn't happened since TAR9. So the only other thing I can think of is if there's some TAR15-esque twist where airing the first two legs back-to-back actually makes sense (a leg 1 or leg 2 non-elimination/Keep on Racing twist).
So, what do we think; 2-hours for just one leg, or two 1-hour long episodes for both leg 1 and leg 2? :duno:

If it's a 2-hour episode. I hope it is centered on 1 Leg only. The fact that Trinidad & Tobago is first leg and a new country.
They can dive deeper into the culture more. Is there a SLT Task, I hope so. Can we get airport shots/drama if any, I hope so.

Despite having only one double leg country, I think the route cannot suppress Season 26 which involved going across the Equator for 4 times?

This is a new management at CBS. They held off revealed the cast for Big Brother all starts until the live premiere. I have no idea.

The late BB cast reveal was because they weren’t sure if everyone would pass their COVID test so it was possible the cast could change in between the reveal and the premiere. The TAR32 cast has been established since 2018 so I don’t see why they would wait for the reveal

Still not a cast reveal in sight.

this season has a lot of miles.
I just did the measure distanced on Google Maps and it told me 31,000mi (this is rounded to the nearest thousand). We have to keep in mind that in the earlier seasons they really stretched how far they went. For example, they said S5 was 72,000mi it is more like 47,000mi. The newer seasons are more actually only having been a few thousand miles off.
-
Just some observations from the CTV promo:
-Lavonne and Hung are both seen wearing similar makeup. Possibly from the Carnival banana song task??
-Leo & Alana, Chee & Hung, and Will & James are all seen checking in
-Leo is shown doing some task that seems to involve building some sort of hut
-Victoria & Michelle are shown doing the goat racing task
-
CTV promo spoiled that LaVonne and Kellie made it to Leg 2 Bogota. However they looked very stressed and unhappy while running to pit stop, so I would assume it was before they were eliminated at 10th. Just speculation.

A lot of clips of T&T (the country). The cast definitely isn't back to basics as what Phil described earlier. There's still an underlying theme of brains vs. brawns, similar to how they let TAR27's cast of media officials and media-makers slip under the rug and the TAR20 alpha-duo teams.
-
Start sleuthing on the island of Trinidad. :spy: In the T&T Carnival scene, there is an unidentified arched sign in the background at 0:36. The Jab Jab (blue performer) fire-breathing scene later on also gives away a monumental seating space behind him. Could be unrelated. The clip with the women steelband drummers looks like they also performed inside an industrial-looking building at the same time.

Phil did say something in the cast reveal video that piqued my interest along the lines that the tasks this season will be much more indigenous this season than they have been. As this was part of going back to the basics. And for a season cast two years ago, it is remarkably diverse, even for TAR.
-
Agreed, is this the first time we've had half the cast be non-white?

Now that I look back on the timeline, I don't see any locations after Leg 3 that could thematically align with a prominent "indigenous" route. ??? When I think indigenous, I think really primitive, native, and lacking of complex machine technology like Easter Island or the Australian Outback. It appears to be all urbanscape and cities after that. Could they have traveled to a more niche region close to some of those plane arrival cities?
I feel like Phil has overexaggerated how return to basics this season truly is in terms of locations, tasks, and cast, because I really don't see it in the brains vs. brawns-type cast he was talking about and T&T promo from yesterday. Especially with the editing that they seemed to have stuck with the "Tough As Nails" feel and look.
-
Kazakhstan certain offers a more local than globalized perspective. There's potential in Hyderabad and visiting Angkor Wat certainly seems to me as aligning with a traditional/indigenous theme. While Almaty and Hyderabad are modern, developed cities, they aren't on the same international scale as Paris, Berlin, or Manila. Indigenous doesn't have to imply isolation imo.

I feel like he definitely meant another word like "rooted" since this seems like more of the case. His way of phrasing it on the preview is strange. I'm still confused on the back-to-basics concept since everything I've heard through the RFF grapevine is definitely not that. Teams are skewed a bit for a theme, Yield is returning, the tasks leading to the last hyped foot race (Vanessa & Ralph/Elliott & Andrew) is making a Switchback... it's not clicking to me.

I'm curious to know -- do we know the layout of how leg 1 goes?
From the promos, it looks like the starting line in LA is a nighttime start.
Then leg 1 in Trinidad & Tobago looks like it contains both daytime AND nighttime portions, but I'm not quite sure how it all ends up going.
Do we think this is going to be a TAR1-TAR14 + TAR28 approach where we finally go back having racing and tasks upon arrival in the first country, plus an Hours of Operation overnight rest, and then the next day, more racing/tasks? Or a straight streamline TAR15-TAR31 approach where the entire leg 1 takes place on day 1 with no overnight rest?
Also, from the promos, I feel like there seems to be a LOT of tasks taking place in Trinidad & Tobago. Unless there's actually 2 legs taking place there and not 1, plus if there truly is an Overnight Rest on leg 1, I'm starting to wonder how they'll be able to show ALL of that in just 43 minutes. Makes me think maybe the previously announced 2-hour premiere was what was originally supposed to happen, but due to the schedule shift, CBS doesn't have enough room to make it 2-hours and decided to just make it the regular 1-hour. So I'm a bit nervous that the premiere will either be very rushed, or have several tasks cut from the edit.
So do we have any clear idea of how the first leg goes, layout wise?
-
Rachel I think what was said was indigenous TASKS not indigenous ROUTE. IIRC....
-
I think the father and son team survives leg 1 (they seem to be happy on the beach, and that looks like the end of the leg, or close to it). If so, it would mean Cody/Nathan are out first.
If I remember well the live sighting, the night part of leg 1 comes first, right? on the Trinidad Island, then the next day in Tobago.
Also regarding the rest of the legs.
We know the first 3 legs are elimination legs (only 8 teams at the start of leg 4). Then there was speedbump mentioned by Phil during leg 7, which would mean Leg 6 was a NEL (in Berlin). I think leg 4 was a NEL (with a team being really far behind but being potentially safe). I guess the last NEL is either Leg 8 ou 9.

Just to be clear, as “indigenous” has multiple meanings. While it’s usually taken to refer to primitive or ancient, there’s a different meaning that has a meaning of “native” or cultural” and that is what I think Phil meant. And the scarcity of those kinds of tasks, was a complaint that was raised, especially if you look at the early seasons, I.e. the ostrich egg roadblock not shown in season one, except as a deleted scene, but used in an aired task in a subsequent season, or the cheese roll. The key here is culturally related. And not generic that could be anywhere.

It would actually suck if it's not a 2-hour or 1 & 1/2 hour premiere. I just hope that the premiere episode is not rushed...

From what it looks like from the timeline, it seems to be different from most other seasons where teams will arrive on the island of Trinidad (Port of Spain) first at night to do the Carnival task, then choose a time for a charter flight that they will fly off to Tobago in the next morning OR ride the car ferry out of Port of Spain to Scarborough, Tobago.
-
The way iit was filmed they have a perfect chance to make Trinidad and Tobago two legs. Guess we will see!

With night arrival for leg 1, I think the leg structure will be like TAR28 leg 1

I think he just meant that there are no casting gimmicks. Just because he described some teams as being brainier and others being brawnier doesn’t mean that’s a twist...and how is a Yield not back to basics?!

I'm positive that I've been mishearing what's been said on the preview, or maybe my mind is just too different. :funny:
A Yield definitely isn't basics because it was added on. It's more the nostalgic factor kicking in if I'm being honest.
-
Maybe Phil meant "cultural" tasks when he says indigenous?
-
Maybe Phil meant "cultural" tasks when he says indigenous?
Yeah. I feel like "traditional" would have been a better word choice.
-
Yeah, in the Manila Leg one of the tasks is a traditional Filipino folk dance I believe. Would be fun if cultural/traditional local tasks are the Final Task, if there is one.
-
What is it with Berlin and height tasks and neon letters.
-
:woohoo: :welcome:
What is it with Berlin and height tasks and neon letters.
They looked similar to TAR 22. They did tasks about carrying one of the neon letters to the mall and bungee jumping in a tall building at night time.

In Kaylynn & Haley's video, you can see one of them performing the Roadblock (I can't tell who, they could be twins) and them riding in a boat and later doing something in the water. I'm thinking that the water task is whatever the fishing task is at the Nylon Pool. You can also see Riley & Maddison doing it in their video and Leo & Alana running in swimsuits on the beach in the preview.
Maybe the leg is gonna go fly to Port of Spain and do the rolling barrels to the carnival task then draw times for charter flights to Tobago. Then they do the song Roadblock followed by a fishing/water task or goat racing detour? It'd be cool if we got three tasks in the opening leg!

Maybe the leg is gonna go fly to Port of Spain and do the rolling barrels to the carnival task then draw times for charter flights to Tobago. Then they do the song Roadblock followed by a fishing/water task or goat racing detour? It'd be cool if we got three tasks in the opening leg!
What are the chances for teams to take a boat from Port of Spain to Tobago in the following morning instead of going back to the airport? The timetable for the inter-island ferry: https://ttitferry.com/schedule.php?mid=3
Preview showed then running out of Tobago airport.

There’s an interesting shot of teams at what I’m assuming is the building musical instruments out of trash Roadblock in Paraguay (Spanish words + music notes on wall). The non Roadblock performers for every team except Hayley and Kaylynn are shown hugging. I wonder what happened to put the girls so far behind...
-
Got really bored, so I started analyzing the promos.
I believe this is in Berlin, Germany. Slowed down the latest promo, and found this. At the 0.20 mark,
I found a someone running behind Gary, the shoes, although blurry, kinda resemble Kaylynn & Haley's.
The built is that of a female
Kaylynn & Haley could have made it to Leg 6.
-
Yes and I think we can also see them in the live sighting video of teams running in Germany.
That would mean Leg 4 was a non-elimination (with the blond sisters being very far behind but saved)
Leg 5 in Paris means the other sisters are eliminated there.
And we know leg 6 is NEL. Means the girls are out in leg 7!

Interesting that Hung and Chee are shown doing goat racing AND the fish at the Nylon Pool. So that means either they end up switching Detours or it's not a Detour. But that would mean that there are four separate tasks (barrels, goats, steelpan, AND fish) in the first leg which would be a whole lot...
-
Is it still a 2 hour premier because if not that’s a lot to do in.
-
Just one hour...but we do not yet know if it is a Trinidad/Tobago episode or a Trinidad followed next week by Tobago episode.

No idea. At the moment we don't have a schedule so can't say... Would be a good 2 leg stop though.

Official CBS schedule:
https://www.viacomcbspressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/schedule/?type=grid
The premiere episode is called "One Million Miles". The following week's second episode is called "Red Lipstick is Not My Color" which matches the promo's of some teams wearing make-up at the Pitstop in Bogota. I think it's safe to assume then that episode 1 is truly just Trinidad & Tobago, and then episode 2 is just Colombia.
I will say though; with how many tasks/challenges/things there seem to be happening in Trinidad & Tobago just from the promos, I'm genuinely starting to feel like the previously announced 2-hour premiere was on purpose because this first leg had so much going on for it. I'm so nervous that because of the schedule change and now just getting a regular 1-hour premiere, it's going to feel so rushed edit-wise or even have multiple tasks/challenges/things that we see in the promos, edited completely out of the episode so it can all fit in just 43 minutes. I'm gonna be a bit annoyed if that's the case... I don't get why they didn't just keep the 2-hour premiere timeslot instead then? :groan:
-
Thanks for the titles!
It is HIGHLY unlikely that there would have been any re-editing done. If T&T was one episode (pretty much confirmed by the mat pics we see) then it always was. SO then the double would have been EP 1 & 2.
More likely...they need programming and decided to extend the run instead, OR the 10PM show needed the slot.
In any case>>>WE ARE BACK!! :conf:
-
I do hope the route spoilers are accurate and Kazakhstan is the only country they stay in for a second leg. They've never done that before, and I love the sound of it. They average 3-4 two-leg countries a season.

Well if Kazakhstan was only one leg, then that would mean one of the other countries was the double leg. It seems as if it’s pretty much guaranteed we’re just getting on double leg

During Big brother last night they aired a new preview. I saw this scene of Michelle and Victoria running on a deck. Do you guys think this is at the Nylon Pool or where they do the steelpan Roadblock? Because if it’s at the Nylon Pool then that means we’ve seen Chee and Hung AND Michelle and Victoria there and at goat racing which would make me question if it was a Detour or not

I believe that this screencap shows that Jerry & Frank are in Colombia, meaning that Cody & Nathan are our first boots. I underlined the logo on the door, circled Jerry & Frank, and included a picture of the El Dorado airport logo, which is in Bogota.

I agree with you, and that would match with Jerry and Frank's reaction at the beach (which looks like the Pitstop for the leg). Now we need to know which of J/F and L/K made it to Brazil!
-
From the press photos, it seems like the goat racing and the Nylon Pool are two separate tasks and not a Detour. Meaning there are four separate tasks! Hoping the episode doesn’t feel too bloated/rushed...
Regardless, it seems like a nice step up in difficulty from TAR31’s mess of an opening leg!
-
So from the new sneak peek of them in Trinidad, they must (from an unknown point) roll the bass steelpans to the carnaval, where the first 7 teams will be in the first plane, and the last 4 in the second.
We see the first 6 teams, in order:
1) DeAngelo & Gary
2) Frank & Jerry
3) Maddison & Riley
4) Chee & Hung
5) Cody & Nathan
6) Victoria & Michelle
and we see two teams arriving at the same time: James & Will and Haley & Kaylynn
From the preview clips of team running out of the Tobago airport, it seems James & Will will be our team #7 because we can see them in that group, consisting of all teams from the first flight.
Which means flight #2 is:
1) Haley & Kaylynn
2) LaVonne & Kellie
3) Leo & Alana
4) Aparna & Eswar
Obviously it doesn't mean much because the team suspected of being eliminated is from the first flight.
UNLESS....
Is there a possibility that leg 1 is NEL? We got this group picture of the Top 8, on the way from leg 3 to 4, but is it possible that one team was missing from that picture (like the Afghanimals were missing from the group picture on their way to leg 2 in TAR31).
I know we had 7 teams for leg 4 with apparently one team still on the field, but was it the possibility of having missed one?

There was a user from this site watching most of the teams check in at the mat live. There were definitely only eight teams in Paraguay
-
In on the sneak peak Peach just posted in the Ep 1 thread, we see six teams make the first charter flight. Further, one of the oft-repeated screencaps shows teams running out of the Tobago Airport. Thanks to that, we know which 7 teams are on the first charter flight and which four are on the second. The preview did not indicate how far apart the flights are.
Show content
Charter 1:
1. DeAngelo & Gary
2. Jerry & Frank
3. Riley & Maddison
4. Hung & Chee
5. Nathan & Cody
6. Victoria & Michelle
7. Will & James
Charter 2:
1. Hayley & Kaylynn
2. Lavonne & Kellie
3. Eswar & Aparna
4. Leo & Alana
-
So officially confirmed; for the first time since TAR28, they brought back the mid-leg 1 Overnight Rest that was prevalent from the older seasons of TAR1-TAR14! I love that. Wish we could have had an extended premiere just like the older seasons too though.
-
To add to Leg 1 speculation - you can infer that the difference is at least not significant enough that the team eliminated is from the first flight, which is good and definitely makes the otherwise imbalanced 7-4 team split feel fairer.
Also, if you checked footage of the first Roadblock from the team bios, and assume that the Roadblock is the task before the Pit Stop (I think it is - Leo & Alana are seen running off a beach area with a clue in their swimsuits when they did the goat racing in swimsuits as well), then we can have a potential fully spoiled placement slate.... going off promos alone and team bio footage, which is kind of funny to me.
My spec: (all built off like 3 seconds of flashing footage each and checking the background)
1st-4th: Any combination of Will & James/Riley & Maddison (seen together at the RB), Hung & Chee (only seen alone), and Victoria & Michelle (only seen alone)
5th: Eswar & Aparna (you can see them celebrating while seeing the other teams in the background, none of the first four)
6th-8th: Any combo of DeAngelo & Gary/Leo & Alana/Haley & Kaylynn
9th: Lavonne & Kellie (there's shots of them looking worried with only Cody & Nathan/Jerry & Frank seen)
10th: Jerry & Frank
Last: Cody & Nathan (Jerry & Frank are shown reading a Route Info clue post-RB and you can see a camera crew still filming a team behind them)
Should be an interesting premiere to watch. I'd be surprised if our Top 3 was also the Top 3 for Leg 1. Would be the third TARUS season in a row where that happened... and both the 2nd placers on Leg 1 (Cody & Jessica/Colin & Christie) ended up winning the Race, with the Leg 1 winners eventually finishing in 3rd and the 3rd placer on Leg 1 finishing 2nd.
-
Interesting that we don't see any U-Turn yet in the spoiler stuffs. Might be replaced by yield for this season?
-
The top 5 teams were all on the first flight so that helped. But the other two were the bottom two teams so they really messed up that roadblock lol
-
The Yield seems to be some new variation of the Yield. But no sense of any kind of U-Turn.
-
Is that shot of Frank saying 'damn it' on what looks like the Amazon River, not indicate he and Jerry make leg 3? And the shot of Kellie and Lavonne looking a bit tense running to the pitstop in Bogota with the lipstick on etc from the circus task, indicate they go next leg? Or is that river in Colombia?

One thing I'm curious about from the first episode that doesn't make much sense to me is the timeline between the starting line departure in Los Angeles and the arrival at night in Trinidad & Tobago.
According to the episode at least, all the teams arrived to Piarco International Airport at 9:00pm. But how is that possible when in Los Angeles it was a nighttime start too? The earliest the sun would be set during that time of year in LA is after 5:00pm. In the timezone Trinidad & Tobago is in, it would ALREADY be 8:00pm there by the time the race started, making it literally impossible to fly all the way there in under 1 hour.
So either two things are possible: the graphic in the episode of them arriving at 9:00pm is incorrect (and they instead arrived very late at night/very early in the morning). Or it literally took them 24 hours to arrive in Trindad & Tobago.
Does anyone have any insight into this or theories on what actually happened?
EDIT: Also a seperate question, in the spoiler summary timeline page, it says there were two flights the teams took from LAX to Trinidad and Tobago. UA1815 LAX-IAH 0557-1055 and UA1457 IAH-POS 1455-2207. Is that accurate because, if so, we also saw none of that in the episode?
-
We have the flights in the timeline. They started at night, flew out the following morning to Houston for a connection and then onto Trinidad arriving at night time.

This is so disappointing on CBS' behalf. Defs looks like Frank in Manaus
-
Per spoilers, which can be mentioned as episode has aired, the teams took connecting flights from LAX to Port of Spain. We don’t know what time they left the Hollywood Bowl, but all the teams had taxis. Flights left LAX at 6 am and connected with arrival after 8pm local time. That still leaves time for passport and customs before leaving the POS airport.
As far as I know, I’ve seen no reason to doubt there being two flights for each leg of the connecting flight. We might have to ask Racers after the finale airs.
-
Thanks for the replies! According to the timeline though, and now knowing leg 1 was a no-rest leg, that means it looks like they were racing for 5 days in a row with no "official" rest period!!
-
Press photos show two tasks - a Roadblock that involves rolling around in a spherical thing and balancing a wine bottle and glass while walking on a tightrope and an Active Route Info (or Detour where everyone chooses one side) that involves decorating the inside and outside of a truck.
Tasks seem underwhelming (especially Active Route Info - why are we going all the way to stunning Bogota to decorate a truck?!) and potentially having no Detour yet is disappointing...
Interesting that the episode description confirms a Yield. I guess that they really are going WAY back to TAR5 and having a Yield on every leg!
-
In their episode one recap on their YouTube channel, Will and James offered the following about getting from the Hollywood Bowl to Port of Spain airport.
Their taxi wouldn’t start they had to wait for a replacement.
Teams left the Hollywood Bowl after 11pm. All teams were on the same flights. There was a layover in Houston. (My guess is the second flight involved production.) Teams did socialize at the airports, both LAX, but mostly waiting for the flights to Tobago.
There’s other things, but you might just want to watch the video.
-
Remember too that night there tons of fires in the area. A very big deal..
Phil filmed earlier at the Hollywood Sign.
Lol. I was on standby by for a flight to LA and didn't get on. If I had, I would have headed right into trouble!
Someone upstairs was watching out for the stupid ones like me! :lol:
-
Anyone noticed how the first group of 5 was our final 5? :groan:
I hope this means that there won't be a big alliance with these 5 helping each other leading to the other 4 teams being eliminated one by one because of it. I guess we will see next week with the double U-Turn.
Also I loled when the blond sisters said: we love #8! Knowing they will most probably be last in Paraguay (be team #8), I hope they are team #8 again next week!
-
Woah, was leg 2 ALSO a Keep-on-Racing leg?? On the CBS press express website, they show Phil giving out clues to the teams while they're on the mat in Colombia. Was this edited out or what is that??

I did notice Phil looking like he was going to grab something from his pocket at one point during the episode (forgot which team’s pit stop) but I shrugged it off at the time.

So that's why Phil was wearing a jacket. :funny:

Dang, that's crazy. Two no-rest legs in a row? Have they ever done that before?
I wonder why they edited that out?
-
NO WAY!!! Wow 2 No-Rest Legs with eliminations in a row and in the first two legs!! Crazy! The only time I thought of having two No-Rest Legs in a row was for Season 10 of my Amazing Race. The first No-Rest Leg would be a non-eliminated then the second (which is the next leg after the first one) would be an elimination.

-
"Proof" that you can edit an episode to have the qualities of cohesive placement results for teams while still accounting for a Pit Nonstop. Not sure what happened with that for the premiere. I can definitely see this happening for the rest of the race though. Just continuous traveling.
-
How are they going to edit the beginning of next week's episode if it's a KOR and they didn't show it?
-

Leo & Alana
i did notice a team running away from the pitstop one of last 2-3 teams when one of the teams was coming in so i do think it's possible.
-
I think we will find out next week!
WHatever it is...I would find it hard to imagine TWO back to back KOR's!
-
As I found out posted at the media thread on the November 18 double episode in which there will be two India legs (in Hyderabad) and leaves Kazakhstan into a single leg.
-
i am wondering though if Alana's being so "tired and angry" in the promo means they got U-Turned??
Would seem an odd choice UNLESS the team right in front of them needed a buffer.
:duno:
-
If India is 2 legs, and Kazakhstan is just one, that means we have a final 6 in India, either Leo and Alana or the F/F teams (Most likely the blondes).
We have Leo/Alana as checking in the pitstop in Kazakhstan but I can't find it anywhere. Could they have been last?
Edit, I found it, it's this pic. Can we confirm it's their backpack?

[/quote]
Oh good! But then we still don't know who is the 6th team that made it to India, they could have been eliminated there at that pitstop in Kazakhstan.
Imagine if the blonde sisters are actually the ones hahah dead last on leg 4, we don't see them after (except perharps the shoes of one of them in Berlin but it's not 100% confirmed) and then they end up in India! I wished it was Michelle and Victoria, they are my fave!
-
I was going to say, what if it is Michelle and Victoria?
-
It's Kaylynn and Hayley for sure, the Berlin video is matching with clothes they are wearing (black jackets, backpacks).
This is just pure speculation... I wonder why we got only Leo and Alana sighting from Kazakhstan pitstop. I think it could be because whoever was lurking there came later when previous teams already checked and he/she saw only Leo and Alana being last and eliminated at 7th.
The question also is... Is 1st or 2nd India leg NEL? Cause blondes can possibly race 9 legs. Which is quite a achievement considering they were speculated to be out in 4th leg originally, lol.
-
The only thing that makes me hesitant on the theory that Haley & Kaylynn make it further than Paraguay is that a field non-elimination would be so weird. Unless Phil and crew walked away to wait a few hours for the girls to check in
-

They were not field non-eliminated. The last sentence is correct. They did same thing with Bill and Cathi in TAR19 as documented in TAR19's live sightings thread.
-

Not sure what happened but they were hours behind the other teams. I don't think they even made it to the detour by the time NFL left the challenge iirc.
We waited forever for them to show up and on the ground crew had to leave. LOL :funny:
-
Hum I would think India 1 would be the NEL, but you never know!
I wonder what would happen if they had planed a plane for all teams at a specific hour, and that one team is sooo behind that they miss that flight.
Like per exemple if the flight from Paraguay to France was planned to leave at 13h00 and every teams checked in for a 12h pit-stop before 9pm the previous evening (they would all be out before 9h00 am, giving them enough time to go to the airport) and that Haley and Kaylynn checked in at like 1 am.
Would they reduced the 12 hour pitstop for the girls? That wouldn't really be faire for the other 7 teams. Or would they have them do the 12h and take another plane.
I remember in Amazing race Canada 1, on leg 2 , the teams were on 2 or 3 flights from Kelowna to Vancouver , but the cowboy missed the last flight and were on their own flight (and they just never had the opportunity to make time). It must sucks sooo much to be on a leg where you don't see any teams at all because you are already 5-6 hours behind..
-
I would assume girls had some problem with taxi driver/got lost in Paraguy, based on the season preview.
-

Yeah, it seems like their taxi broke down or their driver got hopelessly lost. It would suck if that happened and they were eliminated because they would be the second team out due to a terrible production-arranged taxi (Kellie & LaVonne being the first)
-
It can either be Kaylynn & Haley or Michelle & Victoria. They both have black-colored attire and backpacks.
However, what if Michelle & Victoria brought an extra pair of shoes and we could have mistaken them for Kaylynn & Haley's shoes in the very short scene of the shot in Berlin.
:faint:
Either way, if one of them make F6, then great. Of the two though, I would like Michelle & Victoria to go further, they have so much to offer.
-
OMG, this is too much! Now y'all have me delusionally believing that one of Michelle & Victoria OR Kaylynn & Haley could possibly be making it all the way to final 6 AND even as far as episode NINE!! 😩
-

Well, Kaylynn posted a rather blurry photo on Instagram. This is most probably 2nd KOR Leg in a row?!?!?!!?

It’s very interesting to me that in the preview Riley & Maddison specifically name the top five as an alliance. It will be interesting to see if maybe this season ends up having a successful version of the Six Pack

Maybe a self-driving doomed them? Michelle was shown to be angry at her sister during a driving scene, suggesting Paris to be a self-driving leg?

There we go Hayley & Kaylynn made it to Berlin. But towards the end of the video, we see them jumping for joy with a clue. I wonder where it is, but it looked like India to me.
-
Is there really no possibility the awesome Asian Cajuns make it further than Leg 5? It looks like they're driving in the countryside in cold, rainy weather. Do they possibly drive outside of Paris before driving back in for the Pit Stop?
I want to delude myself into thinking the scene is actually from a self-driving Leg in wintery Kazakhstan. :'(

Is there a possibility that if we look back into the filming timeline that the entire race is going to be all Pit Nonstops/Keep on Racing legs?
-
Is there really no possibility the awesome Asian Cajuns make it further than Leg 5? It looks like they're driving in the countryside in cold, rainy weather. Do they possibly drive outside of Paris before driving back in for the Pit Stop?
I want to delude myself into thinking the scene is actually from a self-driving Leg in wintery Kazakhstan. :'(
Unfortunately no :(
Haley & Kaylynn are 100% seen in Berlin doing the Roadblock walking down the side of the hotel. Leo & Alana are 99.9% seen checking in at the Kazakhstan Pit Stop. Sadly our Cajun Asians will be out even earlier than we expected </3
-
We knew Hayle & Kaylynn made it to Berlin since 2018 so I really don't understand sudden "I am so sad that Michelle & Victoria are out 8th instead of blondes" posts, this is almost 2 years known info. The shocking info is that there was only 1 Kazakhstan leg which actually can shake a original boot order a little bit cause there is a chance that Leo & Alana and Hayle & Kaylynn switched 6th/7th place.

It wasn't known lol, the last sighting of Haley & Kaylynn in 2018 was they were "potentially field eliminated". The gaps between sightings led people to assume Michelle & Victoria were 7th and Leo & Alana were 6th. Way back then our big question mark gaps in the boot order were the first 3 boots.
Now there's some changes due to footage, and now the debated placement is 7th/6th.
-
Also figured out what a task is - we have a food delivery app task in one of the India legs.

Swiggy is the app on Hung & Chee's backs and you see them both with phones. You can also see a gnome with Hung & Chee in a rickshaw (wearing the same exact hats) so India 1 or 2 is probably our Travelocity Gnome leg.

Sorry for the triple post, but I also found this in that new promo. Could this be the finale?

There was video of Hayley & Kaylynn and some others teams running next to Berlin wall, so it was known. Check live sightings.

It wasn’t fully confirmed that it was Kaylynn & Haley running by the Berlin Wall as the sighted team was far enough to be determined. While it was of female built, we could not deduce if it was either Michelle & Victoria or Kaylynn & Haley.
-
Me and some other user(s) were analyzing that video back then and we were able to identify that team as Hayley & Kaylynn based on their backpacks and blonde hair. I was 99% positive it was them, but as I can see, there were doubters here.
-
There we go Hayley & Kaylynn made it to Berlin. But towards the end of the video, we see them jumping for joy with a clue. I wonder where it is, but it looked like India to me.
It looks like the inside of a train station, so either France or Germany no?
We know they made it to Kazakstan, so we have to find a pic of either The blondes or Leo and Alana in India! (to know who is 6 and 7)
-
I LOVE y'all. You are the BEST team ever! How y'all see all this is beyond me...but very thankful you do!

^^^ This. The consensus definitely wasn't that Kaylynn & Haley made it to Germany. And with the way that the rest of the spoilers ended up shaking out, a 7/6/5 NEL pattern with the blondes out at 8 made a lot of sense.

Manila just screams replacement leg to me. The lack of footage from the Manila leg from the official intro kinda bothers me. Is there a way to confirm this?
-
I don't think footage in the Intro or lack of Footage would mean anything?
All legs are not always represented in Intros....
-
I just had a flash about one of the pictures we saw in Manilla, of Phil with all the teams in the middle of the leg.
Do you think this means the U-turn vote is back? It was pretty similar setting like the one in Switzerland!
Edit: this pic!

I'm thinking they might try out a new leg format where they send out the teams to complete a list of tasks and then return to the same location. Whoever is the slowest is eliminated. ??? Purely spec.
If it is another case of the U-Turn, the hourglasses would be all for nothing, and this would be very upsetting. I was thinking the Yield would become the key component of this season.

It’s not just Manila but also Siem Reap. But agree with Peach’s comment, that legs are not always presented.

Before the start of the race, are teams given a list of countries they were about to race in?
Because in this clip, Alana mentions going to India, Finland and Australia. Does this mean that we were supposed to get Finland and Australia legs?

I hope Manila isn't a replacement for Melbourne. We had a terrorist attack the actual day the Race set off and maybe producers needed to avoid Melbourne, due to potential safety issues and as such, we got Manila instead? ???

Teams passports are stamped with visas of multiple countries including decoys, but the latter 2 I believe do not need visas. It looks like she is just listing of countries.
This is from her bio
What country and place would you most like to visit and why?
I spent eight hours alone in Helsinki when I was 20 and absolutely loved, loved, loved it. I felt
somehow connected to the city. Take me back, Phil!
-
The Manila Leg screams replacement because the tasks are all very simple, easy things that can get staged at the last minute. Obviously, replacement Legs are still planned out from the start of course.
But if they wanted to visit the Philippines again, I would like to think that they'd at least leave Metro Manila if they had a choice. It feels very much like a backup Leg like the Kuala Lumpur Leg from *shudder* TAR24. Though the tasks here are at least a little bit more cultural for the Philippines which the other four Legs in the country may have lacked.
I don't know if the huge jump from Manila to New Orleans also shows it's a replacement Leg because that's definitely not a simple series of flights.
-

If I remember correctly, this is the "start" of the Leg. So, first Route Marker in Manila. I remember someone suggested a U-Turn Vote before. And I cringe at the idea of a U-Turn on the penultimate Leg. But after seeing all four are part of this mega alliance, I kind of want to see them have to U-Turn each other lol
But it might be some new twist since they start and end in the same location.
-
From the promo pictures, the blonde sisters are are the roadblock at the same time as Eswar & Aparna (probably the last two teams).
Did the spoiler say that one team was still at the roadblock while everybody was finish?
My guess is that they get lost AFTER the roadblock!
Also, what are your prediction for the top 3 of the leg? Both Alana/Leo and Will/James looks very happy at the pitstop, so my guess is that they are the top 2.
Leg winner: Will and James
Leo/Alana: Just very happy to be 2th
Michelle/Victoria: 3rd
(Which would match the order of interview from the spoiler)
-
Why was the bit from the timeline about the blondes being field eliminated suddenly deleted? If it indeed pans out, then a reputable spoiler was removed.

Also, Eswar & Aparna were supposed to have been yielded.

A promo showed them in France and Germany. The person on location saw that they were last and at the time it seemed as if they were possibly field eliminated
-

The person on location must’ve misheard things
-
Wait, so I'm confused. Were Eswar and Aparna actually Yielded this episode and it was edited out? Or was that actually not what happened? I was looking forward to the Yield drama this episode... :groan:
-
I think what happened was Docal heard phil say:
How did you react when you saw the Yield?
Which we know now that this year's Yield works differently, so maybe he assumed Phil asked them because they were yield, but it was more of a : Did you think you were going to be Yield?
I find it crazy that this 'alliance' is helping each other this much, is this the most intense exemple of an alliance on Amazing race?
Knowing they finish top 5, I really feel like finishing in the top 5 of tha mine task in leg 2 shaped the whole race LOL

Correct, but I also didn't delete it! I like to have the historic look of what we thought vs what actually played out on the episode.
The fourth post (https://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,34947.msg1243266.html#msg1243266) has all the info retained at the time of filming, which I never edit once the cast has been released. The wording used was always "possibly" field eliminated, we had no confirmed info the blondes actually got booted there.
Once it became apparent the blondes survived, I updated the main post :tup: Hope that clears it up
-
Do we have any information on this unaired cluebox?
https://www.instagram.com/p/CHMHY56pWMg/
I wonder why they would edit that out? Do we think it was simply just a retrieve a clue and proceed to your next destination, or was there a task there? I also wonder where in the episode that would have taken place? :duno: Any information on that, and the supposed Eswar/Aparna Yield, would be really interesting!

I'm glad they cut out that Route Marker, because the episode would have been even more rushed toward the end.
-
My guess is that it was just use for the first location on the leg, that way teams can't plan too much advance... They wouldn't know where the location of the roadblock was...
-
This may be relevant, but in the race preview at the end of ep 1 there was a cap of a yield box (below); I can't find the same angle for a match but it shows similarities to the side of Palacio Lopez opposite from where the cluebox was photographed.

I don’t think it’s in Paraguay because the Yield for that leg was at the terrere task. Could it be at the National Museum of Natural History in Manila?

So I was rewatching episode 4 and noticed something interesting when they showed a zoom-in on the Yield board. It's only shown for about a second and it's hard to see unless you pause it at the right time, but you can clearly see that someone's picture is inside of the Yield board/pouch/thingy. Upon further inspection, the picture is sideways and clearly showing a team wearing red so it look very much like Eswar and Aparna's cast picture (though it could be Hung and Chee) to me. If you look sideways at Eswar and Aparna's cast picture on the CBS website, it matches; especially with showing Eswar's curly/wavy dark hair. You can also see the chyron of the team name in the picture and, to me at least, it looks like it ends with an -A.
It's also worth noting that this was the only time you could see this throughout the episode. So this isn't something where everybody's cast picture is in this board/pouch/thingy waiting to be used. Episode 2 and episode 4, both times the Yield has appeared, there weren't any other pictures waiting in the board/pouch/thingy. Just this one time where I am pointing out right here. Thoughts?
Go to about ~23:30 in the episode to see it yourself.

Nice attention!
But if you zoom in closer, you would see it is DeAngelo & Gary's photo. Gary's "ary" ever-so-slightly peaks out. Plus, I don't think I've ever seen single Yield photos that thick. It definitely looks like a stack of eight right there.

Have you noticed almost every leg's had something related to a circus, a carnival or a party? And knowing we're ending in the French Quarter of New Orleans (the capital of partying)...I smell a possible final memory task.

Actually, that’s a good point.something to watch for in the episodes to come.

I know they're doing that big gladiator thing in Kazakhstan, which keeps with the theme.

-
This seemed to me like a leg that got put together real last minute. Both Roadblocks were incredibly easy and boring to watch
I forgot, was it this season that Phil said was very difficult to film. And some here speculated that it was because they had to possibly do a few replacement Legs last minute?
In addition to Manila, maybe Paris was also a replacement Leg. :duno:

There was a lot of flying involved in this season. We have had connecting flights for teams for 5 consecutive legs already. I wonder if the long flying was the reason to keep teams & Phil so tired :duno:.

If the sneak preview they drive the little German cars to a teledisco so we could be onto something here. Especially since the fighting or whatever it is in Kazakhstan but Idk what leg 3 would be though.

Press photos are out! It looks like the Roadblock will be walking down the side of a building having to notice flashing letters spelling sauerkraut. The Detour seems to be a choice between doing beer yoga or performing a song.

Here are caps from the 2nd half-of-the-season preview that was supposed to air after Episode 6. (It aired in Canada is on the on demand episode.) I'll put it under a spoiler tag since it's a couple of caps: Can be removed from the tag if okay, I'm not sure.

Phil said 6 legs to go during the midseason preview after the Berlin episode. So still should be 12 legs, no idea how the superleg plays out though.
-
Does this megaleg mean 9 episodes of Kaylynn & Haley?
-
I think that there are 11 legs, the mega leg only being counted as one leg. I don't think that the amount of legs/locations speculated adds up since we know that we only have one Kazakhstan leg. The only thing I can think of that it will make it 12 legs is two legs in either: India, Cambodia, or Philippines. I don't think the Philippines as two legs. India could be two legs but having the amount of three legs in one city I don't think would happen. The only thing that is similar to this S14 China legs were their were two legs however the second leg being a double length leg making it have the amount of three legs, but the first China leg was in a city in southern China and the second leg (double length) being in Beijing. So, unless Cambodia is two legs, which i don't think, this makes us have 11 legs.
Leg 1: United States --> Trinidad & Tobago
Leg 2: Trinidad & Tobago --> Colombia
Leg 3: Colombia --> Brazil
Leg 4: Brazil --> Paraguay
Leg 5: Paraguay --> France
Leg 6: France --> Germany
Leg 7: Germany --> Kazakhstan
Leg 8: Kazakhstan --> India (megaleg)
Leg 9: India --> Cambodia
Leg 10: Cambodia --> Philippines
Leg 11: Philippines --> United States

Is there a possibility that this India megaleg will be one NEL leg and we somehow can end up with Eswar & Aparna eliminated in the next Cambodia leg and Kaylynn & Haley in F5?

If Kaylynn and Haley SOMEHOW make the final 5... that would be insane. From an editing perspective, I feel like I actually almost could see it? Eswar & Aparna are just soo under-edited for a team that makes the final five... so editing wise, I could see it. But realistically, I don't think it'll actually happen.

The two Legs that may fit the "Mega Leg" format, if it is what we think it is would be:
TAR8 Final Leg (2-hour episode, no clear midpoint)
TAR10 Leg 9 (2 episodes, midpoint after ARI task, no Mat)

This is the same show that usually acts like seasons 1-13 doesn't exist

"Mega Leg" sounds just like what we all expect it to be. :funny:
“Are You a Rickshaw?” – In the first ever “Mega Leg” in the show’s history, teams race through Hyderabad, India where they must complete double the detours and double the road blocks and travel double the distance, on THE AMAZING RACE, Wednesday, Nov. 25 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Phil Keoghan is the host.
“This is Not Payback, This is Karma” – The first ever “Mega Leg” in RACE history continues through Hyderabad, India where teams compete in double the detours and double the road blocks and travel double the distance, on THE AMAZING RACE, Wednesday, Nov. 25 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Phil Keoghan is the host.

So, just a Double-Length Leg without the virtual Pit Stop. WOW totally brand new never done before so original. I am not mad that mega legs are a thing; I am just mad that they are saying it is an original thing they came up with for S32.
Agreed. It's like TAR Canada saying they "invented" the Face Off and was "first and exclusive" to Canada :lol:
The two Legs that may fit the "Mega Leg" format, if it is what we think it is would be:
TAR8 Final Leg (2-hour episode, no clear midpoint)
TAR10 Leg 9 (2 episodes, midpoint after ARI task, no Mat)
The original Hungary leg also fits with this criteria.
-
This is the same show that usually acts like seasons 1-13 doesn't exist
Seasons 1-4, 6-13! Since, Colin & Christie came back they now know they S5 exist.
-
Just checked the TAR32 Wikipedia page and they are saying that the upcoming legs are Leg 8: Kazakhstan —> India, and Leg 9: India —> Cambodia. Also, there is a U-Turn icon in the bullets for Leg 9 so pretty sure the second U-Turn is going to be in Cambodia. So, I am pretty sure we are only having 11 legs.

Usually being the key term but yes
-
Except, there are 12 episodes. Sounds more and more there’s a way to Devine a midpoint between the two episodes. One thing this mega leg won’t be, the length of the season 9 leg from South America to Russia to Germany.
-
I hope there's a U-turn or a couple of yields in the mega leg. That would be awesome

So this "first ever Mega Leg" isn't even going to be the longest Leg ever since it's all happening in Hyderabad. lol
The first half of the Mega Leg will likely end with a To Be Continued with one or more teams struggling at some task or something, like they usually do with TBC episodes. Each episode/half of the Leg will have a Detour and Road Block.
-
I wonder if the Mega Leg will feature 1 or 2 Yields. At first thought, it seems obvious to only include 1, for it's just one leg, but seeing as the producers probably want the Mine Five to split to some degree or at least create drama, I wouldn't put it past them to include 2 Yields, especially if the Mega Leg is going to be treated as two legs (8 + 9).
That being said, watch Hayley & Kaylynn get Yielded twice :res:

Phil said there's only 2 yields left and that included Kazakhstan.

I thought the clue was saying ‘there are only 2 legs with yield than can be used’ in leg 7. Given we know that they double up the things for the mega leg, I will not be surprised if we are getting both u-turns and yields in this coming mega leg.
No matter what is coming up, the blondes are going to be hit at least once imo :'(

im curious as to what will come for the rest of the Race course??
8: Hyderabad, India
9: Siem Reap, Cambodia
10:
11:
12: New Orleans
And we know at least 1 of 8 and 9 are Manila! will we see 2 legs in philippines or did we miss a location? or is it just 11 legs?

It's seeming like it's gonna be just 11 legs because of the megaleg, at least from my perspective. It's kinda cool though if that happens because it's the first time every leg will have been in a different country!
-
Something big about the mega leg: most KOR legs have some spot where the teams can rest. This leg seems like 0 rest whatsoever
-
As if you don't recall, the last true mega-leg was in TAR 10.

A little different since teams had to find Phil at the Mat in the middle while for this Mega Leg, it might be just teams Racing all day with no Mat.
It may be similar though since in TAR14, they didn't have any rest and continued Racing all in Beijing.

That might be the distinction. Since both "halves" of the Leg will be in Hyderabad, it'll be a long day with no plane or train ride between the two halves (like TAR10) or the overnight rest in the stadium on TAR8.
All in all, the Mega Leg isn't necessarily something "new" or something we haven't seen before in various forms on the Race.
-

TAR14 Beijing also has no rest point. In fact, leg 7 and leg 8 of TAR30 also happened on the same morning, so it can also be kind of megaleg before
-
Just checked the TAR32 wikipedia page and on the results it is now showing two new things.
1. There is a note by the Leg 8 which reads, "Leg 8 was a mega leg, with two Detours and two Roadblocks, shown over two episodes."
2. Instead of showing 12 legs they are now showing 11.

Hello hello hello!
Quick question: Phil said double the roadblock, double the detour. but also double the distance..
Is it possible they don't just stay in Hyderabad? I mean why say double the distance if they stay in the same city?
I think (unless some things were kept in the DL) that we don't have any sightings for this leg no?
Maybe it's Hyperabad and another city 1h away from it by train
-
Wikipedia is not a valid source, anyone can edit it :groan:
Even though Wikipedia is not a reliable source, it usually is 98% reliable for TAR. I don't think I have ever seen anything that is not true however that doesn't mean that everything is true. This is a speculation thread and things that are said on here is not all confirmed/true. Only the cast, production of S32, and CBS know if this is true or not. I just wanted to put this in here because it is speculation, and I just think it is fun to update about stuff like this.

For 30 (and also legs 4 and 5 of 27), there was an overnight rest during the first leg. In Hyderabad, I'm assuming none of that. No overnight rest (arrive at the city and race right away), no keep on racing pit stop, just a normal pit stop after 2 detours and 2 roadblocks
-
Were two hours mega leg originally planned as double episodes schedule too or they would have been separated?

Wikipedia page of TAR29 has all the leg by leg placement of team being wrong. So don’t really rely on that as source of information.

Not a fan of 11 Legs. I want em 12 Legs. If they went with a Mega Leg (8th Leg), there should have been another country slotted in there after India (Leg 9). Not unless Mega Leg is entirely in Hyderabad and another in one (Leg 9) in a different Indian city.

Tbh it’s twelve legs for all intents and purposes and just a Keep On Racing/No Rest leg but they wanted to get ~fancy~ and not have a Pit Stop in the middle

Confirmed!! Figured Wikipedia is usually a place fans of Big Brother and Amazing Race updated that page with the information they know, especially Big Brother.

I think the 1st episode in India on the mega leg will end in a "to be continued" screen because originally it was scheduled to end the 2nd double episode of the season however due to the US presidential election it is now the 1st episode in the 2nd double episode of the season.
-
One other possible difference from a Mega Leg to previous KOR Legs: Since its two roadblocks in one leg, and since Season 16 it has become custom to have each roadblock in a double roadblock episode completed by a different team member, then I am assuming that it is required that each roadblock is done by a different person. If so, that would put Will and James and Riley and Maddison at a 5-3 count entering Cambodia (if they make it out of India.)

They should have followed S.9 Brazil - Russia - Germany or S.10 Madagascar - Finland - Ukraine.
I would have preferred this format.
-
The reference to “double the distance” could mean anything at the point, but my mind keeps making me think of TAR 10, leg 9, where there was no mat and no Phil at the halfway point, just a clue box outside of Helsinki Olympic Stadium. I’m able to visualize it in my mind without having gone back to watch. Same thing for TAR 9 in Moscow near Red Square, but Phil was there without a mat. But I do think the TAR 10 leg format is the closest fit.
-
I think the double the distance is just hyperbole to make the Mega Leg sound even more special
-
No wonder this season was hard to film & produce. Whew, they were flying to a new country each Leg minus France to Germany.

Mega Leg is just a rebranded double-length Leg. It's like homage to S.7 India where it happens on the 8th Leg as well.

What? new country? Only Trinidad & Tobago is the new country, the rest is no...

Do you think "Mega" might refer to one of the tasks or perhaps many tasks that are linked?

I doubt there will be voting U-Turn this season, especially for the f4 leg and if it is, then it will be a bad idea lol. My take for the twist in Manila is that the start of the race and the pit stop are in the same location merely

I'm still convinced on my original theory that Phil gives them a list of tasks they have to complete in any order before checking back in. Last team to arrive elimination protocol. Of course, me liking this idea is up in the air. I may abhor it. I may tolerate it.
-
That would be interesting and it makes sense to try such a potentially clusterfrak of an idea with only 4 teams instead of say 8 or 10 lol
-
Press photos are out...and they spoiled who gets U-Turned! They literally put up a picture of the completed U-Turn board. This happened last week too when a preview article had a picture of Will & James Yielding Kaylynn & Haley. I genuinely fathom why they would do this. :groan:
If anybody wants to know what happens regarding the U-Turn: Show content
Eswar & Aparna are U-Turned by DeAngelo & Gary and DeAngelo & Gary are U-Turned by Riley & Maddison. There's a picture of NFL and the Beards next to an empty U-Turn board so I'm thinking they used the Natalie & Nadiya strategy to get Eswar & Aparna out for some reason...
-
First, :groan:
Second, that was the most logical scenario as soon as it was revealed the second U-Turn on the promo after listening to the other three teams.

CBS really doesn't care about TAR to the point they'll blatantly spoil things like this -_-
-
I feel like casual fans won't even bother looking at these press photos, but it still kinda sucks that TAR revealed the U-turn results even tho we knew who's possibly elimd this leg.
Also, does it mean NFL finished the detour first? Or could it be H/C didn't use the U-Turn? Only W/J, R/M are likely to U-turn NFL.
-
Could the beards U-Turn NFL first?
Does the position of the U-Turn matter?
Would make sense for NFL to U-Turn the siblings is they themselves were U-turned.
But the position makes me believe that the brothers U-Turned the NFL AFTER NFL u-turned the siblings...
The other option, which now thinking about it i'm sure happened, to protect their 'real alliance', the brothers did the TAR21 U-Turn strategy, to make sure that the siblings couldn't U-Turn Hung/Chee and Will/James....
Again if this happened, it's like.... play your own game. Out of the 5 teams, the siblings have the worst track record
-
It's a predictable U-Turn considering all that's happened and the dynamics of the alliance.

Anyone else notice at the beginning of the promo for next week
Show content
that Phil is with all four teams about to start a task (the running one?). Unless maybe that's from during the pit stop in Cambodia before they leave, it seems weird for him to be interacting with them during the leg. It also indicates that there is probably some sort of bunching point.

my guess that the start of the race on Manila and the pit stop will be the same and they have to do series of ARIs before going to the pit stop, need more info about this twist tho

Based on the episode description, it's exactly this! lol
Though it does make it seem even more like a last minute Leg they cobbled together :lol:
-
Knowing that the Core Three all check in within a few minutes of each other and NFL checks in about an hour after, I’m guess that the group all collaborate at the memory task in order to get NFL out. Super annoying if true...are they all gonna help each other on the final leg?!

I might be totally wrong on this. Maybe the NFL was hopelessly struggling and getting lost somewhere or a ridiculous circumstances happen on them (or another teams) where they may stumbled to the wrong tasks settings for HaMerotz 8 by accident? IIRC HaMerotz 8 and TAR32 filmed their Manila leg on the same day, and their pitstop location was close vicinity with each other.
-
Yeah, the two races very nearly crossed paths in Manila blocks apart. That would be hilarious if they ran to the mat and met Ron Shahar instead of Phil Keoghan.
Like, who are you? :lol:

That is why avoided an international TAR crossover being filmed at the same time. The leg on this season has no roadblocks and detours, even two HaMerotz LaMillion seasons also have no RBs and detours.

I think it was just a mistake with dancing cop and not dancing cup.
Also what the heck happened to NFL's 2hr penalty? Spoilers had them checking in an hour after the F3 teams. I guess production just pulled the plug on the remaining time once it was clear NFL was last and to be eliminated?

That would be hilarious! That's probably it. Since it's the Philippines, "dancing cup" makes sense because of the traditional Filipino dance. So we just assumed that's what it was. (which could've been a great task on this City Sprint, tbh hehe)
If we misunderstood "dancing cop/cup" in another country, we'd be all like 'What are they talking about?!' lol

It seems like the final float task is putting together a map of the world on a giant globe. Definitely would’ve preferred a final memory challenge/logic puzzle akin to 12 and 30 where they had to decorate a float with items they encountered on the race while also fulfilling specific requirements.

Not sure about that. I can tell you this task was FAST! Teams were not there very long and pretty sure there was not enough room in there for 3 globes.

Oh, you’re right! My bad. I just assumed it was the float task. Looking at the press photos (https://www.viacomcbspressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/shows/the-amazing-race/photos) it seems like it takes place at the Erato Street Cruise Terminal which is near the Crescent City Connection
-
It is right between the float area and the spot where they have to go for the bridge task. An admin building. Most of my bridge pics were from right there.
That whole street was blocked off. There is a cruise terminal further down.
Its odd that they are running that way though. IF the water is on Chee's left then he is running TOWARDS the float place.
I have a zillion pics, will post later today but cannot right now.
