Kelsey & Joey Dating News Anchors

Tiffany & Krista Former Jets Cheerleaders

That seems like fewer teams that usual?

My money's on the brothers Ernest & Jin.

Pretty sure it's always been eleven teams, at least for the past five or six years.

I wonder if the Dating Paparazzi and TMZ workers will be harassing/photographing the ex-Jets Cheerleaders throughout the Race?

Yep, always 11 teams. I think one year they had 12, but then eliminated a team in the first five minutes.

So, the Blind Date is out, at least for this season? Good.

TAR Canada has been very good this Summer, but it's not the same without Phil.

I think the blind date season turned out better than I expected.

yes, best 3 dollars I ever spent in on of these games. Rooting for/against Blair and Haley was gold.
I have always wanted to see a season where teams were matched up with no prior relationship. It was great watching the meltdowns.

Looks like a bunch of strong teams. Where's the old or fat cannon fodder?

Yeah, it might be hard to pick the Quack play.

No flamboyantly gay duo? That seems like a first.

Tanner & Josh "Best Friends"

I guess it'll be more of an ambiguously gay duo this time.

Once same sex marriage was legalized, gay people became mainstream and thus are just as boring and uninteresting as everyone else, so the casting directors don't feel like they have to go out of their way to represent them.

Ill be watchign for first time ever for Kelly & Shevonne

The TMZ girls. They can be pretty funny on TMZ. I hope their humor translates to TAR.

They'll discover love on their trip together.
