Huh? There were two "western" caucasian couples on TARA1. And one half team (Howard). Everyone else was Asian. And yes India and Sri Lanka are totally part of Asia. Indians and Sri Lankans are officially caucasian by race but they are also Asian as they live in Asia. And people from those countries were just as eligible as "oriental" Asians as far as TARA is concerned. And there are many caucasians not only living in Asia but being born there as well plus many...

Total BS indeed. Like it or not, the Caucasians MADE the show.

Andy/Laura was the best casting choice that season and was the center of all drama in almost every episode. (after they were eliminated, the entertainment factor of the series dropped significantly)
In addition, Howard/Sahran (as much as I hated them) provided something to the table - they were fun to laugh AT.
And Fransesca (and her mini-semi-meltdowns) was highly memorable.

casting has been one of the main problems of TARA. in Tara1, they casted a lot of Caucasians. Shouldn't it be all about Asians? Maybe they think those casted will prove to be more interesting. Based on how it went, it is a forgettable season.

they needed and wanted to redeem their selves for Tara2. Hence, they found applicants that will fit their scripts. Yes, they had a plot for the race that will make it really interesting.
1. they had a person with minor...

I'm two weeks late but I decided to watch the finale today and boy, was my prediction wrong. I was thinking that it's pointless for me to watch the inevitable Mactormanwhore win so why suffer watching the events unfold anyway? Thankfully, not only Colin and Adrian won but the sisters also beat the twats. Poetic justice.

At least we will not see these two apes again. Ever. (unless they get invited back for All-Stars)

The season has redeemed itself.
