» Spoilers: Season 12 and earlier Options

[Miss Alli]

I am pinning this final warning to ensure that it can't possibly be missed.

If you can be shown to read this thread (that is, you post in it) and you are found going elsewhere on the boards and using spoiler information which you are trying to pass off as speculation, that is a warnable/bannable offense.

Seriously, it's really unfair to other posters, and it's also really lame, because it comes off like you're cheating and trying to make yourself look like you're just a very good guesser.

Please, please stop this. I have had more problems with this during this season than during any other, and I'm determined to get it stomped down as we get closer to the end. I don't want the show ruined for other people. Please don't continue to engage in this, if you're engaging in it now. Thanks very much to the great majority of you who are careful about this.

Another take-it-or-leave-it unverifable Wikipedia edit claims that part of Evil Dr. Will's appearence on Big Brother All Stars that he and Mike Malin would be a team in TAR12.

Wow, now there's something that would either a) make me never watch TAR again (because honestly, I'd rather be trapped in an elevator with Mirna and S6 Jonathan than have the BB goons on my TV screen for five minutes) or b) cause them to get the most satisfying, humiliating comeuppance in television history, which would make me love TAR all the more - I'll admit, I'm not a serious BB watcher, but it was really awesome when BB!Allison got Philiminated in, like, episode 2 of her season.

But I'm betting it's not true. No way.

But I'm betting it's not true. No way.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was true. My understanding is that Dr. Will would not appear on BB All-Stars unless Malin was included and CBS gave in. Also in BB8, apparently Jen is a friend of the two of them. So Dr. Will seems to have some influence.

I see now where Dr. Kirby is appearing on Dr. 90210 on the E channel this season. I think he's just a reality junkie and would appear on any show he could get on.

Please, God, NO! I luv Dr. Will, but Boogie makes me want to ralph. It was bad enough when Allison from BB was on TAR, but she was mercifully eliminated early enough to salvage the entire season. But I don't know if I could take this.

My first spoiler post! I usually lurk in this thread when the show is supposed to be actually filming because it is fun to see sightings here and there without spoilerage of the rankings. It was a good thing that I stopped visiting this thread when I did before All-Stars though(last thing I had seen was the Guido spotting in..Argentina, was it?)

Anyways, I'm surprised nobody had posted THIS before! It seems to be an Intersection taking place at Prague(confirms what flobbie33 said). The thing is..one of the crew with the teams is Asian, so I don't know if this TAR Asia 2 or TAR 12, though isn't TAR Asia supposed to be localised? So it seems unlikely for them to visit Prague. So apparently there is atleast one alpha male team featuring in TAR12. I can't see the other team properly though..does the person being blocked from sight by the guy on the right look like a woman?

That photo was first shared over here at RFF where it has been confirmed that this is indeed TAR Asia (TARA) in Prague, and not TAR 12. The team there is in contact with the photographer herself.

The man in the white shirt is Michael Mckay, the TARA executive producer and the women are production.

Judging by the sign though, it does seem to be TARA's first Intersection.

A second team was also described.

Since the location and dates do coincide with flobie33's original post, I think it is safe to say that the Prague sighting there was also TARA and not TAR 12.

I'm guessing that this spoiler is TARA2 as well, given the close proximity of the locations? I can't imagine TARA2 and TAR12 treading on each others' toes with filming...

[raceguy120390]

If it isn't TAR:A, could it be TAR:CE, which has been supposedly filiming for almost two years now?

I hope it is actual TAR. Imagine if we could get a crossover Intersection... intra-team conflict, fun accents, and enough teams to make it worthwhile at any point in the race (read: either late in it, or with an odd # of teams). TPTB would wet themselves with the possibilities. (Okay, they're PROBABLY more mature than that, but still...)

Is anyone else surprised we've had at least four leg locations for TAR:A spoiled, but nothing at all for TAR 12?

[auntieB]

Lots more information on the possibility of a Croatia spoiler HERE.

And the Central Europe franchise has been discussed for 2 years, but apparently is on no one's schedule--so there may be some doubt as to whether this will ever get off the ground.

[Eilan]

We were on holiday this summer and happened to see a leg being filmed. We spent the better part of the afternoon chatting with various crew members, and met and had a brief chat with one of the teams.

I promised the crew/producers I wouldn't say anything, but I think I can confirm the spoiler from RFF that auntieB linked to above without quite breaking that promise. And the team we met were definitely Americans.

[WAMgirl]

We were at LAX this July going on our honeymoon, and we met a team from the upcoming season. The team consisted of a younger guy and his grandfather. They were headed to Ireland and were looking for guidebooks and people to exchange dollars for euros on a one to one ratio.

[evil jesus]

The deal was that Will would get to meet the casting person who is a different person than the BB one. I don't think they would have any interest in Mike and Will because it is a year after they were on a barely relevant tv show.

BTW, is it true that there are more than 12 teams this time?

Yes - they've gotten rid of the NELs as well as 2 episodes, so there must be 13 teams if they were to keep the final 3 to finish (or else more uberlegs).

So if I'm not mistaken, we've got Ireland, Croatia, and Burkina Faso as definite locations. From RFF, there's confirmation for Alaska and maybe Malaysia and/or China (yes, again) as well as Bosnia.

[apskip]

WAMgirl, Can you provide any additional information on what/when for Ireland? Were there signs of any other teams or cameras? do you know if their destination was Shannon or Dublin?

Well, I guess that makes up for the lack of the NEL. Also, it gives hope that more could've gone in to support having so many people on a single season of TAR; I couldn't imagine CBS or TPTB ever being able to afford to have so many teams within one edition of TAR.

[evil jesus]

Are you sure the number of episodes has been reduced? I think there will be at least one TBC in there. They may also choose to double up the final leg (like on TAR:FE) so we could be back to the standard thirteen legs.
