I might be a minority here but I absolutely LOVE couples that bicker and provide entertaining moments in doing so.
Nope, not the annoying and nerve-grating types like Jonathan/Victoria or Ray/Deana but rather the type of bickering where both parties are at each other's throat and there's not really a submissive or dominant one and it results in some drama or makes the race less monotonous.
Examples? Paul/Amie, Frank/Margarita, Tara/Will, Kelly/Jon, Amanda/Chris, Adam/Rebecca, Lori/Bolo, Hayden/Aaron, Lake/Michelle, Rob/Kimberly, Nate/Jenn ...etc etc
I felt that TAR13 & 14 severely lacked this element (except for Ken/Tina and even then, it was pretty one-sided with Tina dominating Ken and it only lasted half the race) and as a result, the seasons didn't feel complete cos' of this lack of drama and couple-y elements. So, I'm really hoping TAR15's many couples will provide such a "long-lost" element that I've thoroughly enjoyed in older races. I think Meghan/Cheyne, Garrett/Jessica and almost definitely Lance/Keri have the potential to be the bickering but entertainingly fun-to-watch characters.
