I feel like they never put priority into the show like they do for survivor or big brother. It's always been like the ugly step sister which is sad because it's actually a good show. **** a lot of the times it's a better season than big brother and survivor.

 Still remember They gave it the terrible Sunday night timeslot and like every other week it would be delayed and air like 20 minutes late

 

Apparently they are using a chartered plane for the next season. I'm annoyed because it will probably cut the airport drama. I wish they would think of better ways to keep the entertaining but weak teams in the game outside of increased non-elimination legs and using equalizers. 

Maybe they'll have two charter planes per leg. I agree, the airport drama was amongst my favorite parts of the episode. It also eliminates teams figuring out connecting flights that'll get them to their destination sooner.

They killed the REAL airport drama a lot of seasons ago due to budget issues cause they went crazy spending money ****

Airports were not the same once they got rid of begging. Nothing like a couple of privileged blonde 20 something actress wannabes begging for money in a run down airport in a third-world country where the average annual income is a goat and two chickens.

is there a link to this episode lol

Charla & Mirna begging for First Class tickets cause they'll "miss doctor appointments" is a classic.

Didn't someone else pretend to be pregnant to get an earlier flight lol? Old AR was so good.

‘The Amazing Race’ returns to CBS with season 33 on January 5, 2022:  https://premieredate.news/tv-series/2986-the-amazing-race.html

I am confused... did they bring back the people to finish after they shut down production?? I am curious to see how that played out

It seems like they only filmed in Europe.

I'm gonna be miserable watching this seeing people travel while I'm stuck at home studying and working

Yes, the first 2 or 3 legs are pre covid, then all the teams (minus 1 that couldn't) come back. They went to countries like switerzland and such where it was easy to travel. Seems they also did Private plans and drove places over taxis

I used to love this show when I lived in Australia and there was the Australian version. I actually had dinner with the runner up on one season, I was her sisters manager and she invited me to dinner with them. I was severely star struck lol. I'd be interested in getting into the US one I've only seen a couple of seasons, any idea where I can watch as a UKer?

Hopefully this new season ends up being better than last. I'm curious how dynamics changed after having that gap in filming.

I thought only 7 out of 9 remaining teams came back. Not 8?

I didn't watch last season cause I got spoiled who won before it aired a million years after filming. However I think it was the season before with strangers coming together to make a team was the best season and my favorite winners ever. It was so funny and unexpected who won.

Jk that was 29

You liked Brooke and Scott? Lol

I remember hating the concept and refusing to watch but ended up eventually watching not too long ago and it was a low key good season.

1 team couldn't but I don’t know  if the team eliminated comes back. I can't remember.

I like this cast so far! Interested to see how the race after the return.

I just watched the premiere and it was certainly fun and every team seems nice enough. Loved seeing London because I grew up around there for a while and have been to most of the places they visited during the leg. The satirical use of English things e.g. the people dressed as phone booths and the queen and Bors Johnson impersonators were fun as well!

The tasks were fun but also kind of just there for the sake of it and not really that challenging and the roadblock took a few minutes at most. 

Lol at the 2 guys thinking the task was too easy and continuing to search even though they already found what they were supposed to find.

how does a generic joe blow apply to this show and get cast when they cast teams like akbar/sheri, anthony/spencer, ryan/dusty... 

I was annoyed when every teams story was "I went viral when..."

why did the cops break out into song when they lost **** 

Team Princess would be a lot of fun on this.

Production made them and it was so uncomfortable lol.

I thought the first episode was pretty boring (and I say that as a big TAR fan). The tasks were dumb (finding a piece of mail, navigating around London, etc) but I think the cast is good. Lulu and Lala fighting about one of their exes was funny and Ray and Caro arguing is some awkward foreshadowing. My favorite teams are the flight attendants (Raquel and Cayla) and Natalia and Arun. A little nervous that the boring teams like Ryan and Dusty and Anthony and Spencer will dominate the whole game and make it boring
