No chance that we will see a summer air. No early spottings. Early fall at best. Please God. Early fall. This is a fan favorite.....but so few fans. You would think it needs a huge share to continue, but our normal shows can't pull anything so there is now a renewed hope! TAR is better then a hopeless sitcom. CBS Executive's, you are reading, right?

[quote=V1man;10918]Think Fall sweeps...[/quote] I hope that they do two installments this year. With the great ratings that they had late fall and early winter last time around, it would seem like a no brainer. With the gimmicky All-Star and Family editions securely in the past, things can only be looking up. Especially if they do HD! This show is made for HD if there ever was a reality show that begged to be filmed in the upgraded format. The Sunday time slot is perfect. I'd keep it right there after 60 minutes which is a "Big Dawg" lead in, although I hate the football delays. That being said, those delays always bleed over into the show and give a massive viewer injection to the bottom line each and every week.

Well I got this from wikipedia.org and I don't know if it is true, but they said there have been some spottings of Amazing Race teams. [quote] I found the real spoiler at realityfanforum website. It was actually started in Los Angeles last April 22nd, two teams were spotted (2 blondies in pink and a young male/male team). -- 07:51, April 25, 2008 (UTC) —Preceding [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signatures"]unsigned[/URL] comment added by [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/125.212.13.237"]125.212.13.237[/URL] ([URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:125.212.13.237&action=edit&redlink=1"]talk[/URL]) Another spoiler has surfaced in which a team has been photographed at Chicago's O-Hare airport on the night of April 22nd. Based on RFF (Reality Fan Forum)'s deductions based on flight combinations, it is very likely that The Amazing Race 13's first destination is Buenos Aires, Argentina. Additionally, travel books in an airport book store on Argentina in LAX were missing. You can head to RFF for this information in its actual context.

[quote=Pheonix12;11078]Well I got this from wikipedia.org and I don't know if it is true, but they said there have been some spottings of Amazing Race teams.[/quote] I read this as well. Sounds legit enough, but you never know. It was presumed that they were casting/location scouting the last few months so I would not be surprised if they were filming the first leg by now.

It is not really an around the world if you start in Memphis and end in say, Seattle. ;)

CBS posted their new fall schedule and Amazing Race is going to premiere in the fall in its now standard Sunday night time slot after 60 minutes.

Why don't you start a spoiler thread with map and all? ;)

There are still a few open casting calls for the next season of TAR. There is one this Saturday in Lancaster, PA and a few others around the country this month.
