That's the only annoying part, when they make you wait an EXTRA week. I don't mind the non-eliminations, and would prefer SOME of them to be in TBC format. Personally, if I were scheduling, the premiere and finale would be two-hour episodes (each with TBC/Non-Elims), with 12 teams, meaning only one non-elimination leg is required between Legs 2 and 11. Add a team, make a non-elim early... easy way to make it exciting later, and once that first team IS gone, then only two teams throughout the race ever get that "freebie." The other legs are all elimination.
But I like the TBC format because, as someone said above, it does make people more fatigued. But if the TBC takes place with a plane ride somewhere in there, the players can always rest while in transit.
