Maybe its time to have more & longer episodes per week, Maybe its time to have ONE leg of the race last longer than a VERY heavily edited 1h episode per week. & I dont mean they get to the pit stop & Phil hands them a clue & tells them they are still racing. I mean actual longer legs. Legs that last 2-4 episodes. I want to not complain about this version but with all the gimmicks (some just stupid beyond belief: Phil trying to be Matchmaker..s26) the short episodes, the short legs, and everything else in between. It makes it hard Not to complain. I think thats one of the main reasons why I prefer to watch HaMerotz LaMillion over this. & have since 2012. Also back in 2013 I had more fun watching Velyki perehony than I did while watching TAR22. The Ukrainian's version was basic. No gimmicks, no twists, no nothing, other than one continuing leg. So maybe Producers & CBS should think about things, instead of what just seems like bashing out series after series just to get another series on air.
Even though the race has been gradually dumbed down through the years and I am not a fan of the twists that have been added in more recent seasons, this is the only competitive reality show that I've stuck with since the beginning (I choose to believe that the family version doesn't exist).
They need to copy Israels version a little bit. At least with having more than 1 43min episode a week.
The amazing race is awesome
Best Season ever
Too expensive to make in UK with current product placement rules
Need a UK version
I get emotional about _The Amazing Race_ (better known simply as _TAR_) because while it's not the best reality show out there it is one of the most comforting and easy to watch. I watched the entire run of the series from Season 1 to Season 31 while recovering from a surgery and while I couldn't move out of my bed I was able to join a sometimes fun, frustrating and (sometimes) fucking stupid group of hundreds of people cross the globe together (I've included my top 10 seasons here and will rank each one in their respective season page). In addition, if you decided to do what I did I highly recommend checking out the reddit group associated with the show on which you can find reviews of each episode/season and discussions of the best/worst seasons/characters in the history of the show (r/theamazingrace). This community alone makes the journey much more enjoyable as everyone on there enjoys discussing old seasons. My top ten seasons were: 1. TAR5 2. TAR4 3. TAR All-Stars 4. TAR23 5. TAR10 6. TAR21 7. TAR: Unfinished Business 8. TAR9 9. TAR22 10. TAR1
