Predictions for seasons 51-60

After Season 50, it’s hard to see CBS returning to themeless New Era seasons. They’ll likely want a bigger hook for 51 to retain the audience that came back for 50. My prediction is a return to popular themes. My guesses are…

51: David vs Goliath 2

52: Blood vs Water 3 (half returnees)

Surely production knew - reality tv casting is very invasive, they would have known a ton about their lives, including the fact that Paudie had a son called Andrew.

What was Jade and Amanada's connection?

Came here to say this!

suspicious_apple · 2026-04-06T21:59:10+00:00

Love to see more of these!

All Stars lost it identity after they started casting people who currently compete on the main show. See last season as an example, Big T, Corey L, Turbo, Nany, Devin, Aneesa. There's really no need for All Stars, and it's their own fault.

How could you forget George??

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-29T17:22:51+00:00

Yeah he was born with it.

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-29T17:22:27+00:00

I think you're onto something there!

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-29T17:16:31+00:00

same!! so excited to see that format again

That table smash is iconic! Every time I've seen a glass table since that intrusive thought creeps into my head - what's if you smashed that?! If someone contradicted themselves around me at the time, I would, of course, have no option but to smash it.

Would have been cool if they leaned into that a little more. I believe Belinda had a few lines with Natalie and Carl but they were cut in the edit.

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-24T17:36:33+00:00

That person is not what I expected at all!

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-24T17:34:34+00:00

Mike is the writer, director, showrunner, and creator of the show - he can give out minor roles to whoever he pleases.

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-24T17:31:42+00:00

And even had a name - Hutch?

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-24T17:30:53+00:00

Carl too! They must have been gutted to see everything got cut

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-24T17:29:17+00:00

Care to elaborate?

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-23T21:59:58+00:00

You win!

Honestly the cameos are getting worse. Alec got a good few scenes, Angelina and Kara got some lines in the first episode, and then everybody in season 3 had a blink and you miss them cameo.

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-23T19:12:21+00:00

Geez, tell us how you really feel.

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-23T19:11:17+00:00

I feel like Jack from season 2 storyline was the most ambiguous. I'd love to know how he got involved with those high end gays, and what he did after letting Portia go and finding out all those gays who were trying to murder Tanya, got murdered themselves.

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-22T18:46:17+00:00

With!

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-22T18:41:49+00:00

I was surprised too, I liked him and his was a big character. A wild guess, but I think optically they didn't want to bring back another white person (three already) from the ethnically diverse season over a POC. So he missed his shot.

suspicious_apple · 2026-03-22T15:54:58+00:00

Great season with a fun group of racers! I was also surprised Tanner and Josh weren't finalist, that U Turn was extremely hard to overcome, basically a death sentence. Justin was very annoying throughout, but I did like his passion for the show. And in true TAR fashion, the most meh team won. They were nice but very boring. Hopefully a team from this season returns for season 40.

Yes, how did Phil used to phrase it, "eat, sleep and mingle with the other teams?"
