So I have been thinking of this season because it is just so great on so many levels and well Colin & Christie are on this current season.
That being said. Does anyone feel like if Brandon & Nicole were eliminated earlier instead of making it to Final 3 would've made the boot order perfect?
In TAR5 Final 6, you have Charla & Mirna, Colin & Christie, the clueless blondes Kami & Karli, heroes in Chip & Kim, and the lovable underdogs Linda & Karen. Then there is Brandon and Nicole who are just there.
I love TAR5 but the one stinker later on for me is Brandon & Nicole lasting so long. Or am I sounding too harsh here?
On 5/29, TAR will now be on at 8pm ET.
If every single winning team from Amazing Race (US) history ran one mega race, so basically 31 teams of two, who would win?
My money’s on Rachel and Dave.

Molluscoids are my favorite race, so for that perhaps a sort of bonus while on a wet planet like gaining the ability to get more districts on wet planets since you can breathe underwater. Or something more akin to Illithids from D&D where your livestock pops also generate a small amount of society research to represent you learning from eating their brains and learning their memories.
Arthopoids can gain access to a special hive building that reduces pop home usage and acts like a mini ecumenopolis or gain special bonuses to collecting base resources like bees do.
Avians can fly which increases their base unity gain or happiness, or they can build super nests similar to the arthropoid hive idea to increase housing.
Humanoids get a bonus to faction happiness and emenities and a small bonus to opinion with other empires.
These are just ideas that I had, what do you guys have?
Edit: Also, perhaps a tiny bonus to empire opinion if you are the same race as them, like dragons would like you slightly more if you were a prikki-ti.
Has the show ever had any issues dealing w/ sexual misconduct or race issues / microaggressions in the show prior? Also if not how should CBS/Production handle this show if an issue does come up in later seasons? Does the nature of the game even make it so that issues like these would come up?
Hypothetical (though it’s on my bucket list)— for those who have seen the show or understand the concept (racing other couples around the world, completing different tasks, some physical, some mental) what would a training regiment look like for you if you only had, say, 2-3 months?
