Topic: TAR CANADA 8 Speculation and Discussion of the LIVE SPOILERS

Hence why it might just be three episodes left including the finale; in other words, ending on the 13th rather than the 20th.

Either way, we saw 4 teams running the final leg. So they either used a decoy or Canada's going the 25/26 route.

[Parasparopagraho]

The latter looks more likely since neither the Dancers nor any of the "Sibling Syndicate" were wearing Twinnie-style sandals.

Bathurst, New Brunswick? Where'd that come from?

So it wasn't a 4-province route after all. At least NB isn't the semifinal leg for once

Episode press release. The surprises keep coming!

[Parasparopagraho]

Rather unexpected that it was somewhere in the province besides Moncton.

Leg 8 was really a non-elimination? With 6 teams and 3 legs left, guess that seals there actually being 4 teams in the finale. So Leg 10 will be another.

6th - Court & Ali
5th - Beverly & Veronica

Or it could be the other way around, sightings pretty much blanked between Montebello and Vancouver.

Nothing from Owen Sound, IIRC.

Curious who the midpoint final elimination will be. The only time we saw the 4 of them together was when they were running around the night market, so that'll be near the start of the leg.

If Franca & Nella win, the reception's sure to be controversial like Amy & Maya all over again (honestly, their winning never sat right with me either). Also, Catherine & Craig got a bit of a cheat by skipping two legs.

Are we sure there is a mid point elimination?
I figured the night market was the last task!

I don't get how it would be.  Amy & Maya got saved by a (perfectly legitimate) TBC.  Franca & Nella at least came in next-to-last on a normal elimination leg.

Every other task featured in the Finale Preview besides the Richmond Night Market challenge did look like they all took place during the daytime.

So would that mean the Richmond Night Market challenge is the last one? (unless they omitted to show a task)

From an anonymous source:

"Was at the night market last night. They were doing a food run challenge. First 2 teams was a Filipino team and 2 guys."

"I think the Filpino team was in the lead and finished first but, to be honest, I didn't really see them that much. They were tiny and hard to spot in the crowded market."

"The guys really struggled and were there for hours. I saw them walking around everywhere"

"There were 2 co-ed teams that showed up later. One of them was a neurotic mess. Guy was a control (bleep). They held up a line, asked people to wait for their order, asked someone to buy their order. They were really annoying."

Crossing my finger for a Franca & Nella victory

I expected Catherine and Craig to be the villains because of that remark, but it sounds like a lot of people love them.

True, now that I think about it, the market did take place at sunset. Maybe it's a final memory challenge somehow and they actually did have 4 teams cross the finish line (Vietnam 6 did it this way)

So based on the preview caps, a reverse Season 25 Finale scenario of taxis before self-drive instead of the other way around.
