Amazing Race TV Show

First Aired: September 2001 on CBS

Starring: Phil Keoghan as the Host

Produced: Jerry Bruckheimer - Executive Producer, Bertram van Munster - Executive Producer, and Jonathan Littman - Executive Producer.

Amazing Race TV Show is one of the best primetime reality TV shows. It won the Emmy Award for best reality show for 2004. The show starts with about 11 teams who literally race around the world for a million dollar prize at the finish line. Each race consists of travel and challenges. Some challenges, called "road blocks," can only be performed by one team member. It is quite interesting to watch the racers support or cause problems as he or she sits and watches success or failure! Once you get to know the character and attitudes of each racer the show becomes alive, and you will find yourself watching until the finish line.

Reviews of the Amazing Race TV Show

Pop Matters Against a landscape of dating debauchery, cutthroat castaways, and other unscripted guilty pleasures, the relatively educational and undeniably stirring Race seems a notch above the riff-raff. The series sends everyday teams of two -- friends, lovers, exes, spouses, siblings, parent and kid -- on an obstacle course around the world. Along the way, they complete challenges (some together, some by one partner), meet locals both interfering and helpful, and endure the complications of getting along with traveling companions on a long, arduous journey.

Post Gazette CBS's "The Amazing Race" has always been the classiest, least objectionable of reality shows in that burgeoning genre, and despite the gimmickry inherent in casting "Survivor" stars in the show's seventh edition, "Race" remains in top form. Rob Owen

Tatoo After just one episode of frantic people rushing on planes, tearing open envelopes and the dreadful elimination, I’m hooked to The Amazing Race. Kaishi Lee
