TheRabbi May 16 Share May 16 That episode moved at rocket speed condensing 2 legs into 90 minutes. Finale was fine, if a bit anticlimactic. Can't have a close finish every season I suppose. This season certainly had its faults, but I thought it was easily the best of the 3 covid seasons, mainly as the cast was very entertaining. Maybe it was the 90 minute episodes giving much more time for character moments, or just a fun group of teams to watch, but I'll look back on this season overall fondly. 14 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/147112-s36e10-the-longest-minute-of-your-life/page/3/#findComment-8370293

I agree. But that's why I was looking forward to it. There are unique elements about each country (other than flags, which has been overdone) that could have been used. Greeters, dialects, elements from challenges, etc. I just feel that the few times we've had non-memory challenge type final challenges the race designers are just taking the easy way out. For example, they could have combined a Philly icon with a memory challenge. Like have racers place pictures of challenges in order on the "Rocky" steps - making them go up and down the steps each time to get the next picture. Eh, I guess I'll chalk it up to covid issues, and give them a pass on this season. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/147112-s36e10-the-longest-minute-of-your-life/page/3/#findComment-8370298

Ah thanks for the explanation but it didn’t seem much of an advantage to me seeing as I had to ask why, lol. Juan and Yvonne were also fluent in Spanish and R&C probably applied because of their eclectic life experiences that suited the Race. And they ran it so well that they won most of the legs despite there being several more athletic teams. I thought they deserved every bit of it, so yeah sad if a lot of viewers disagree.

That season's winners weren't as dominant compared to Ricky & Cesar but they still were still a very strong team who happened to have done a lot of things required by the race. It felt like every leg one of them was talking about having done this or that. They did well even on challenges that should have benefited other teams. Didn't Leticia say she was a bartender? And yet, even doing an extra drink, Ricky & Cesar finished first even though they started after them. 40 minutes ago, mertensia said: I liked that they made the flag challenge a bit harder by making them listen to the recreators.

Lantern7 May 16 Share May 16 (edited) Good episode. I think the season suffers airing after the season that succeeded it. Ricky & Cesar were dominant, but it's hard to gauge how dominant given the stripped-down version of the Race. If TAR ever does a season with "the best of the best," I'd want to see those two in action on a far larger stage. Vinny proposed to Amber, and she said yes. Of course they did. I want them to be different people than what we've seen, because the alternative is a bit nauseating to contemplate. Juan & Shane and Rod & Leticia weren't bad themselves. The worst you can say was that Rod was hard-headed. Most teams would have melted down making the mistake that the Pilots made. They kept their humor and soldiered forth. Pretty admirable. It kinda sucks we didn't get TAR trivia, but we got some lessons in American history, guided by people too eager to don 18th-Century attire and chew scenery. Also: pirates. And a parrot. Because why not? What really sucks is that we'll have to wait a long time for TAR37, while CBS airs reality TV that doesn't reach TAR in the category of quality. Even a stripped-down version of the show can beat the likes of Survivor, and that's true if those players weren't the biggest collection of numbnuts ever assembled by Jeff Probst.

And Amber can join the security guard in the witness protection program. I did enjoy Vinnie and Amber going out on something Vinnie claimed played to his strengths. Also, I hadn't loved Leticia through most of this, but she did a great job windsurfing (and in all fairness Rod would have struggled equally with the flag task so I don't think the roadblock imbalance came back to bite them) Edited May 16 by kitkat343 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/147112-s36e10-the-longest-minute-of-your-life/page/3/#findComment-8370405
Haleth May 16 Share May 16 During a first half hour talking head interview Ricky and Cesar looked so sad I thought they were going to be eliminated. So glad Ricky prevailed on the surfboard then the two of them surfed to the finish line. Then when they were back in the US and (was it?) Cesar said he'd lived in Philly, I thought 'of course you did!' Congrats to them for running a superb race with very few mistakes. I only wish there had been a placard at the end saying they'd adopted a child, just like they did for Melissa & Yvonne. The pilots came back from a huge mistake. Loved how they didn't get angry with each other and they even managed to joke that the next clue would read "drive to NJ." Congrats to them for not relying on other teams for help and running their own race. I was surprised Leticia nailed the bartending and wind surfing challenges after being pretty useless for most of the race. Congrats for being such a loving, supportive couple. They win that race hands down. Amber and Vinnie can go home and never be heard from again. 11 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/147112-s36e10-the-longest-minute-of-your-life/page/3/#findComment-8370436
