Great race, pathetic editing
Incredible feats of endurance by the contestants, 10 stars for that. But the editing is one of the worst and most biased I've seen in the already pathetic genre of reality TV. They focused on about 10 teams out of 66 for most of the race, who had some back story they could endlessly bring up for emotional effect. They never even showed some of the top teams or their finish at the crossing line. Extremely disappointing editing, not worthy of this great race and it's contestants.
It's Not Just American Teams
Hey guys, just as a heads up the first episode is very American-centric with the stories being told. However, toward the middle chunk of episodes we do hear from other teams a lot more. Spain. Estonia, New Zealand, Australia, Fiji and even Guatamala are given time on-screen and the perspective is a lot better balanced.
Early on though there's definitely a big American slant but seriously, stick it out, it's worth it!

Thrilling, heartfelt, and a must watch
I love Survivor, the Amazing Race, and Man v. Wild. In some ways I feel then this show was tailor made for me! Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, adventure focused reality TV shows have declined. In comes World's Toughest Race. If you enjoy any of the above shows, you'll find something to enjoy here. Exotic locations, high production value, unique teams and dynamics, and arduous tasks, this is a great show to satiate that reality TV show itch I've been craving these past few months.
It's more of a reality show than a sports show
It is still one of the best competitions but they focused a lot on few teams and put aside the sporting event. They never showed general leaderboards nor did they show 50% of the top 10 teams. I could never know in which position the Colombian team arrived because they never showed them even in a single shot
Worth the Effort
While it's a bit of overload on the inspirational stories, in the end it's worth the watch just to see who makes it and who doesn't. I have to say I was more surprised by the teams that DID finish as compared to those who failed.
