I hope we'd be able to see the planned Lulea leg in Sweden in a future TAR season someday.

I almost kind of wonder why they didn't just go out and film that leg to get another episode in the can before the shutdown considering the shutdown happened in the early morning hours of February 28th and the teams could have flew over to Lulea and completed the leg before the day was over, especially if everything was already set up. But I guess they thought better safe than sorry?

Risk.  We knew transmission was happening across borders through air travel.  One person gets sick on the cast or crew, they face huge liability in the face of what was, then, a major unknown.  They made the only sensible call.

Out of every leg we know about for 33 I’d be much more excited for that Lulea leg than any of them :(

CBS couldn't even be bothered to have the cast bios up in time on the website.



Also not fixed even though it's been there for nearly a month now on their Twitter.

Other than that though, pleasantly surprised by this cast. The video bios we do have seem promising even though I wasn't huge on them on paper.

Thank God for the two-hour, two-leg premiere a la Season 15 because three legs in the UK to begin the route reeks.

Yuck @ Detours in a premiere, especially these low-budget tasks that look lifted from the Australian or Canadian versions.

The Australian and Canadian versions of the race actually had good tasks.

AUS2/CAN1/CAN2/CAN4 did have excellent challenges, but not more recent seasons such as AUS5/CAN7.

The commercial that celebrates 20 years of TAR blew me away! :luvya:
The barrel clanging task fitting into the theme song is just :funny:
Love that we get to finally see the teams in HD.

This drums up my excitement even more!

Based on the preview, I am VERY confused as to how the shutdown will be handled.  Are they skipping the three UK legs entirely?  Editing out the teams that didn’t return?  The starting line video vary much felt like they intend to use it in episode 1, not episode 4.

They started from home like on TAR28 before the shutdown. They don't start from home after resuming filming. The first three pre-COVID legs will be aired normally. If you watch RuPaul's Drag Race UK 2, it will be very similar.

I hope there will be small tribute for these two teams who were not able to continue racing in 2021 in episode 4. Zoom call with them or something, lol.

It would be funnier to memory-hole them, especially if they turned out to be antivaxxers.

Officially four days now and they're still not up and the CBS page isn't even updated with the new key art or the fact that we have a new season airing.  :didimiss:

I'm just curious how we had a 20,000-mile race when we all know that the race only visited Europe.

I always measure out the miles per race using Google Maps's "measure distance" tool and they have always been off. I mean season 5 is around 45,000 miles and season 32 was 31,000 not 33,000.

They could've counted flying back to the US then back to Europe again

Isn't the video footage in the preview of Phil saying that from episode 1...? Like as in before the shutdown when they were doing the original route?

I think the voiceover is likely ADR'ed in. With our current route and connections, no matter where you started the season, you finish over 20,000 miles.

So only a couple thousand miles fewer than Season 24.

Well that's disappointing. Is this only for TAR or also for all the other CBS reality shows?
