That being said, I did enjoy this 90 minute episode. Maybe they've finally figured out how to make them. Or maybe these guys being so bad about anything made it interesting because they were all over the place instead of just doing their tasks?
Staying in Europe is interesting. The family one, back in the day, that stayed (mostly) in the US was terrible. Europe will hopefully be better. I imagine, logistically, it's easier for the show to plan an all-Europe season. And lots of self-navigating should make things interesting.

I wonder if they did it this way due to the higher appearance fees that former Big Brother players might command?
I'm disappointed, though. As a Big Brother fan, I really wanted to see how Angela might react to being in places like Bangkok or India. Maybe they'll go to Naples, though. That might be chaotic/entertaining enough haha.
But in all seriousness, the one thing I hated about the family season (which I only got through about half of it before bailing) is that some of my favourite moments in Amazing Race are the airport flight jockeying, booking of tickets, etc. In general, the early seasons were so much better for that. Amazing Race All-Stars 11 was an all-timer.
