CBS has announced the identities of the 11 teams who will be competing on the twentieth season of The Amazing Race, which will premiere Sunday, February 19 at 8PM ET/PT. Like prior The Amazing Race editions, the members of the 11 teams competing on the show’s twentieth installment have a pre-existing relationship with one another. [...]

Jet and Cord did the unthinkable, so did Steve and Allie. And thank god for Tivo (I was watching the Boston vs. New York game. Go Sox!). But I digress. It was history in the making Sunday night on The Amazing Race. It was the first time ever that a last place team (Jet and [...]

On second thought… I actually had some time to rethink my The Amazing Race season 16 picks based on Sarah Kelber and BuzzSugar.com and my own two eyes. Thank you Sarah, BS and the gift of sight! 11. Adrian (40) & Dana (39) 10. Jody (71) & Shannon (22) 9. Brent (29) & Caite (20) [...]

I would first like to say that I have not seen what this season’s The Amazing Race participants look like, smell like, how tall or short they are, if they have a lazy eye or X-ray vision but here are my rankings (worst to first) sight unseen. I’m basing these rankings the same way George [...]

Meghan & Cheyne won Season 15 of The Amazing Race. Eh, I kinda figured that. They were a great team. I actually liked them and wanted them to win. I couldn’t get into this season of TAR. I think it’s because there wasn’t a Rob & Amber or Marge & Luke to route against. I [...]

The final 3 (Tammy & Victor, Jaime & Cara and Margie & Luke) made their way from Beijing to Maui…the final leg of the race! Tammy & Victor, Jaime & Cara got a little case of the H1N1 while trying to carry a traditional luau pig 200 yards along a sandy beach. ROAD BLOCK – [...]

Teams continued through the arctic in the 5th leg in a race around the world via the Trans-Siberian Railway! In this episode we find out a lot: 1. Victor is sneakier than we thought. He momentarily formed an alliance with Margie & Luke to find the a DETOUR task, but then got directions on his [...]

Teams left the land of Dracula and flying to Siberia where the must find the dam on the back of the 10 Russian Ruble bill. (Wow! Mark and Michael are really short! Especially when standing next to Kisha and Jen.) DETOUR Stack vs. Contruct (this task tested the wills of most of the teams) Stack [...]

Sadly to say there will be no weekly write-up, but I had the privilege to hang out with Amazing Race alumni Dallas and Toni Imbimbo along with Kynt and Vyxsin in San Francisco. Good news, Dallas has agreed to do our San Francisco urban adventure race on July 25th. He might do the San Diego [...]
