TAR in the Media


Recommended Posts

Looks like the proposed March air date of S37 got right. Spring doesn't usually start till mid-March.

As for S38 that I mentioned a few months ago, casting is already open that had begun nearly three weeks ago, filming will be in the entire month of March shortly after the premiere of S37.

Thanks for the info - can't wait for it to come back!

I have been having withdrawals, and I was so underwhelmed by the last season that took place mostly in South America. I started watching Season 1 since all seasons are on Paramount+ and oh my gravy! Season 1 looks like a completely different show. It's wild how long this show has been on and how it's evolved. Phil looks like a baby (he doesn't even meet them at the mat in season 1!), production was not nearly as slick and the rudeness of the participants in foreign countries is beyond cringey and off the charts compared to more recent seasons. But oh how I miss those early years where they were largely left to their own devices to figure out travel arrangements!

'The Amazing Race'

The 36th season of the globe-trotting reality-competition show had two teams with Wisconsin connections: New Berlin firefighters and moms Sunny Pulver and Bizzy Smith, and former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Rod Gardner and his wife, Leticia Gardner.

Anna Leigh from TAR35 will be on the third season of The Floor, premiering after the Super Bowl. I don't remember her, but I figured some of you might. Word of warning: there will probably be 100 people on that show vying for big money. It might take several episodes before we see he

Does this jog your memory?

Per the season's Wikipedia page, the first episode of the coming season will be screened at the Savannah College of Art Design's TVFest in Atlanta this coming Wednesday; and there will be a panel with Phil amongst the guests there.

 

To hearing this news, I am curious if this means the racers for the season will be released earlier than is usually the case; or if those who are going to be attending the screening & panel will be sworn to total secrecy for everything that goes on as is the case with the racers before the season airs.

Given that the cast information for the next season of Survivor was released a few days ago, and that premieres the week before this season of TAR does, I would assume that they're going to be releasing the TAR cast information soon, and probably in conjunction with this event.

Interesting! I might try to attend if it's not during work hours...SCAD Atlanta is just a few miles away from me.

Looks like a good group.  No (obvious) mactors, influencers or pseudo-celebs.  Probably the largest number of people over 50 in any season (7).  A good mix of couples, friends, siblings and parent/kids.  Starting with 14 teams and a double elimination the first leg.  

(edited)

I like how MOST of the teams are simply labeled "married", "friends", "siblings", etc., and not Married Sword Swallowers, or Dating Social Media Influencers or whatever. I know some of them do have a descriptor like that, but it looks like hopefully they are finally moving away from making the teams' gig or schtick the main focus.

I feel like it's unusual to have the child in the parent/child teams be in their 30s, but here we have two of them. Usually it seems the child is early-mid 20s. But I could be mis-remembering.

Anyway, sadly I couldn't make the TV Fest mentioned above for the screening. I'll look forward to March 5 and hopefully a good season.
