Topic: TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**

[QuizMan92]

Yeah, it is a bit hard to fit 12 teams (4 from each show) onto a race when I want to have gender diversity

Can’t wait to see where 36 ends up going, too

Proof or it didn't happen.

It's written right on the TAR31 Wikipedia page with a listed source.

Proof or it didn't happen.

Eric said it on my podcast when Michael and I interviewed him. He says it at 19:20 of the podcast (RTV Warriors).

[TARstorian]

^

Proof or it didn't happen.

G.B. is correct. Eric spoke about being invited back (along with Jeremy) on Justin Scheman's Amazing Race podcast. He was cut when it became a Reality Clash season.

- Kym and Alli also got the call but were cut when it became Reality Clash rather than a full TAR returnee season.
- Sheri and Cole were also called, but Cole declined to reappear.
- The two youngest Linz siblings were called (don't ask me why, I would be happy to never see anyone from that season again).
- Justin and Diana were called and began the process but Diana found out she was pregnant and could not compete.

I think that's all I know about for 31 - I recall hearing Brook and Claire had to decline again due to pregnancy (they've been asked for both 18 and 24 for sure, but the timing has never worked out). Personally I'd love to see Brook and Claire again!

As for 36 locations - I'm really hoping for:

AUSTRALIA
JAPAN
NEPAL
THAILAND
SOUTH AFRICA
MOROCCO (or any second African country!)
SWEDEN
IRELAND

RTV Warriors when I interviewed him, but close enough

[BritishTARFan]

My Wishlist/Prediction for Season 36...

1. Fraser Island, Australia 🇦🇺
2. Brisbane & Gold Coast, Australia 🇦🇺
3. Seoul, South Korea 🇰🇷
4. Sandakan & Sepilok, Malaysia 🇲🇾
5. Singapore, Singapore 🇸🇬
6. Pohkara, Nepal 🇳🇵
7. Kathmandu & Bhaktapur, Nepal 🇳🇵
8. Kandy & Nuwara Eliyah, Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
9. Istanbul, Turkey 🇹🇷
10. Helsinki & Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮
11. Killarney & Dingle Coast, Ireland 🇮🇪
12. Boston, Massachusetts 🇺🇸

Do agree with the western route and think they'll finally go down to Australia, to me Queensland makes the most sense, get the beauty of beaches and jungle as well as the cities and it hasn't been visited since S4. Queenstown NZ is defo somewhere else I see them going. Then to east Asia, im predicting Seoul but could well be Tokyo, Osaka or even Taipei. Another Malaysian borneo leg followed by Singapore (these could be replaced by Indonesia and Kuala Lumpur). I really think we're getting Nepal this season and I'd love to see this followed by Sri Lanka (reckon it could be the Middle East, maybe Oman). Then for Europe I think Turkey is overdue, maybe they'd do Cappadocia followed by the underloved but easily accessible Finland & Ireland, linking to a Boston finish.

Proof or it didn't happen.

G.B. is correct. Eric spoke about being invited back (along with Jeremy) on Justin Scheman's Amazing Race podcast. He was cut when it became a Reality Clash season.

- Kym and Alli also got the call but were cut when it became Reality Clash rather than a full TAR returnee season.
- Sheri and Cole were also called, but Cole declined to reappear.
- The two youngest Linz siblings were called (don't ask me why, I would be happy to never see anyone from that season again).
- Justin and Diana were called and began the process but Diana found out she was pregnant and could not compete.

I think that's all I know about for 31 - I recall hearing Brook and Claire had to decline again due to pregnancy (they've been asked for both 18 and 24 for sure, but the timing has never worked out). Personally I'd love to see Brook and Claire again!

As for 36 locations - I'm really hoping for:

AUSTRALIA
JAPAN
NEPAL
THAILAND
SOUTH AFRICA
MOROCCO (or any second African country!)
SWEDEN
IRELAND

This aged well and(SPOILER!)
