Hmm. This could be odd.

The more I go through my list of prospective teammates if I want to try out for TAR 9 and cross people out, the more I realize that you people may become my candidate pool. *eyes you all furtively*

You can be the "people who met on the internet and never met in real life before the show" team.

And don't look at me, I have bad feet and no patience. I'll just cheer you on from my couch.

Well, we'd have to meet for the application video, but still. :)

You could totally just have each person film where they are and edit it together -- maybe include footage of each of you at a computer chatting to the others as you plan your audition? It's such a good gimmick, it just might work.

OMG YES.

[storm_dancer]

Hey, that could be a neat angle, though. The First LiveJournal.com team!!

But you don't want me. I'm chubby and have blood sugar issues.

[miggy.livejournal.com]

Hee. I've thought about that angle, before.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Hey, they've certainly never done it before. ;)

My mom: "You and [ifritah] should pretend to be a lesbian couple and apply for Race! They've only had male gay couples before! She'd make out with you onscreen for half a million dollars!"
Me: "Uh."
My mom: *deep in thought* "We'd just have to make sure your grandma didn't watch..."

[laurelin-kit.livejournal.com]

That would be awesome if you got people online to do it with you.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Well, if I did do it, I'd want it to be somebody who's been on my friends list for a while and responds a lot. It wouldn't seem fair to just pick somebody I didn't already know pretty good at this point.

I'm game....and I already have a passport.... :) Misfit team? TAR-devotee and Never-watched-it team?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Oooo, could you imagine the damage two Misfits could cause on that show? *cackles maniacally*

You so have to watch the next season when it starts next week. 'Cause if you're still up for it after getting the gist of it, I'd be game. :)

Unfortunately

They're only accepting family teams of 4 this time around.

My best friend and I were going to apply...

Re: Unfortunately

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

That's for TAR 8. TAR 9 is couples again.

Re: Unfortunately

[aexia.livejournal.com]

Do you know when they'll start accepting applications for TAR 9?

Re: Unfortunately

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Considering the space between seasons, I'd guess about six to eight months. (Which gives all of us plenty of time to get passports, get in shape and get prepared. :))

[yueni]

But then how would you make snarky comments about all the TAR teams? Or maybe you would... Hold TAR tryouts. *g*

[yueni]

Oh! And can you imagine the kind of advantage you'd have? You have the entire internet at your fingertips! You could call people for help!

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

True. I'd have to go away for a couple months, and then I'd show up and I wouldn't be able to say a damn thing. That could be tricky. :)

[tinylegacies.livejournal.com]

Dude - I'd totally cheer you on - but you definitely wouldn't want me - I'm claustrophobic and afraid of heights!

[trishalynn.livejournal.com]

Don't have a passport, but I'd be totally cheering you on!

[illmantrim.livejournal.com]

*is scared*

[digitalmeowmix2.livejournal.com]

im in!
