2. Any racers who broke up? or hooked up?
There's way too many dating/engaged/married teams for me to handle, but in general with fusioned racers...
DATED AFTER THE RACE: Brennan and Emily (TAR1), Tara and Alex (TAR2), Flo and Drew (TAR3), Eric and Danielle (TAR9) with obvious proof :lol:, Azaria and Christina (TAR12) as mentioned on Unfinished Business, and Dallas and Starr (TAR13).

Not only dated! Azaria and Christina are happily married and the parents of an adorable boy!

Would have been a good team to bring back. What if they were on TAR18? If Christina got to F7 with Ron, I think they might have won

In international TAR versions, where the eliminated teams go? Sequesterville?

Tim & Marie were originally invited, while this season was still airing, for The Amazing Race: All-Stars; however they declined and they were replaced by Leo & Jamal.

Yes, it is. As far as I know, Tim said OK but Marie declined. There're 2 explanations: one says that it is enough to play once on TAR; the other is that Marie disliked how she was edited on the show.

Yes. They were asked, they (Marie) did decline, Tim would have loved to race again.

Whether we can say they were "replaced" by Leo and Jamal is more problematic. It is possible that Leo and Jamal would have been  asked anyway, how the final cast teams would have worked out in that case is not clear.

I would think that JJ/ Margie & Luke replaced Tim & Marie. Alas, we'll never know for sure.

What other teams were invited for all of the "returning" seasons but declined, cut, alternate, etc? Survivor Wikia has a whole page on that, I am curious about TAR.
And they really should bring teams from old seasons or make a returning cast season after.. 10 seasons instead of 6

Hmmm...let's end this discussion. Who was asked or not remains private unless the teams involved have shared the info themselves.

Thanks!

This question has been circling my mind for a while now.

Does production require teams to color coordinate their race outfits or is it the teams' choice to do so? Since TAR20, I've noticed all teams have been dressing in the same t-shirts/activewear or the same hues during the race. It seems teams can't wear anything way mismatched like, for example, Ronald's personal "Who's Your Daddy?" clothes while Christina wears her handpicked outfits back in TAR12.

After watching TAR Canada's recent episode, on the last task before the Pit Stop (canoe to the Pit Stop), can a team use their Express Pass on it? If yes, who should they handed it to?

I think they can't use the express pass on those mandatory tasks. Like...you HAVE to canoe to the pit stop , there's no other way to go.

They are encouraged to do so for the first two or three legs. After that, they can do whatever they want.

Except on TAR Vietnam, where they are colour-coded for the entire thing.

Although this isn't specific to any particular Seasons, it is a question, and it's related to TAR, so I'll ask anyway.  :lol:

I'd like to say I'm a pretty big TAR fan, and have seen all the US, Canadian and Australian Seasons so far, but I want to start getting into other (International) seasons.  Has anyone any advise as too where to start, or which Seasons are really great that I'm missing out on?

Thanks in Advance Guys!  :kuss:

If you want to see TARLA, I strongly suggest you to see the first season. It still remains as the best of the five aired.
