When it was revealed that a Fast Forward claiming team would have their advantage wiped out because of event timing, I was a bit put off. I think if you're going to have a prize that big, it should be meaningful. Otherwise, why bother to set it up, have a camera crew there and other planning?
By and large, the good far far outweighs the bad. There are many teams to root for, and even the ones I didn't care for weren't awful. Plus there's Grant Bowler, who is the perfect understatement in everything he does and says. I will happily grab TARA2, warts and all.
