That first episode was kinda...meh.

I guess that's what happens when you throw all sixteen players in at once and force them to strategize immediately for a house vote.

Did not get to watch BB live due to commitment but did finish up TAR 27.

5cTpXU8

Tiffany & Krista - So much fun, so much spirit, incredibly lovable underdogs, and the running joke of Krista getting hurt in like every single episode was tragically hilarious.

Logan & Chris - It's hilarious just how incompatible they were. Plenty of soundbites and moments that just had me roaring with laughter.

Ernest & Jin - Like Tiffany & Krista, they were such fun, lovable underdogs, but got eliminated too early; if they had lasted even a few legs longer they could have been a solid choice for #1. Plus they were running for a great reason. I remember being heartbroken to see them go when the season first aired and even this time knowing it was coming it was still gut-wrenching to see them go.

Denise & James Earl - They had their moments but overall they were a really likable team and it was great to watch them rekindle their relationship.

Tanner & Josh - Fell on their sword. Nice guys.

Kelsey & Joey - This just in! It's possible to be news anchors on a reality show, make an occasional reference to this, and NOT be overbearing jackasses!

Alex & Adam - More fun than I remembered, but just didn't last long enough to leave an impression.

Cindy & Rick - Not the total dud that I remembered them being, but were still just a mid-season boot of supporting characters.

Jazmine & Danielle - Actually probably the closest thing to a dud on the season. There were a couple of funny little "oops" moments that lasted like a second but other than that, eh.

Kelly & Shevonne - Were needlessly bitchy but whatever they failed hard.

Justin & Diana - So as I have already alluded to, they seem like all-around decent human beings, but Justin is just too obnoxious for me to not hate them. But what's worse is that the whole season revolved around them, especially at the end. Even when they themselves weren't getting screen time, everyone else's stories in the last few episodes basically boiled down to "who can beat them?" It's a black mark on an otherwise really exciting, really fun season.

TAR31 prediction...

1. Tyler/Korey
2. Colin/Christy
3. Nicole/Victor
4. Leo/Jamal

But if T/K and N/V swap, then all of the top 5 will have repeated a finish from a previous season (counting Nicole's win in BB18).

Obviously rooting hard for C/C though, and if not them then N/V.

Personally I like it when the finish line is literally a stone's throw from the last challenge (see last season). There's no fake suspense, as soon as the judge clears a team, you know who won and so do the other teams. You get really raw emotions, both good and bad.

You should get on that. With one bad season sadly in the mix, 25-30 might be the single best stretch in the show's history.

This season probable straddles the line of the bottom third for me. Not the worst by any means, but it was frustrating.

Yeah, at some point Id like to go back and see seasons I missed. My TAR watching has been super sporadic. I followed 1-7, then lost interest at 8. Watched 15-17, then fell off part way through 18, then watched 23 and fell off part way through 24.

I guess I dont like TAR all-star seasons.

Hey, good job on that Colin and Christie video! They ended up being my second favorite team behind Chris and Bret once I really got to see how they changed and grew since their first time on the race.

I did a little reading up on this season's spoilers to see exactly how/why it was so spoiled (even for an all-star season this was exceptionally-well spoiled for TAR) and found out why, and it even explains something kinda funky that happened in last night's episode.

The short answer is fans were extensively following the racecourse and keeping tabs on which teams appeared to still be around. Photos (both candid and even posed) were being posted online while the season was still filming. It took some time to compile notes (Leo and Jamal were initially believed to be an early boot) but the result was a 100% accurate boot list as early as last July.

No doubt production knew about this, which may explain why Phil whispered to the teams at the final pitstop.
