Did you want them to go outside and do it? From my understanding, it was late fall/winter in Germany...

From my understanding, it was late fall/winter in Germany... It's just another example of the sorts of tasks that don't depend on the location at all - I think most people agree that the show is at its best when it throws the racers into a totally new environment. A leg where they spend most of it on a motorway, do some product placement in a field, then choose between two tasks with a bunch of actors doesn't really stand out in the way a trip to Langa Township did. Not that there's anything wrong with those sorts of tasks occasionally - it's more than Germany's easily been the most poorly used country every season it shows up.

No, that goes to Singapore for any TAR or TARA season.

There's the meat RB (TAR7) and also the chocolate RB (TAR5). I think all the detour options in the Argentinian legs of TAR5 were excellent. And I just found out from checking these Argentinian legs that I'm not entirely familiar with the 2nd TAR7 one. Eep.

At least it's had a fairly decent blend of adventure-sportsy tasks and culturally relevant mental challenges. Germany just gets this goofy America's Funniest Home video crap.

At least it's had a fairly decent blend of adventure-sportsy tasks and culturally relevant mental challenges. Germany just gets this goofy America's Funniest Home video crap. The tango is a poor mans version of the second most tragic roadblock ever. Dogs was good in retrospect ("MINE KEEP HAVING SEX!" <333) There were a lot of awesome tasks from Argentina.

Obsessive needle/haystack (combined with volume eating) is bad. Adventure sports are meh, considering they had the zipline in leg one and (depending on your sensibilities), the cattle whatever in leg two. [FWIW, I was about to say Tanzania.]

Normally, but the meatblock was one of the few interesting tasks in the whole of TAR7, in season where everything was "tie a stick to a car", "get in a boat" "go shopping" etc. Argentina > Chile > Brazil as far as the repeated South American countries go. The TAR11 Detours are easily better than anything they've ever done in Germany - famously the home of Jonathug's wife-shoving and the only country on a race route entirely bypassed by the winner
