Anybody watch The Amazing Race?

Boy the finale came down to the plane flight and Rob and Kim would have won if Tyler and James hadn't got one. I have to say that of the three left I am happy they won.
 
i knew he looked familiar!! Thanks for the confirmation :). The whole season I was thinking "I have seen them before somewhere...not CSI NY, not CSI, probably not Miami..." But it was.:lol:
 
So which model was on Miami? I don't know their names.

I just started watching the amazing race last year so I don't know how into the all-stars I will be but I still will probably catch it. ;)
 
Bumping Up!!

Amazing race All-Stars starts on Sun Feb 18 At 8pm eastern time.

All-Stars are:

Kevin & Drew (S1)
Oswald & Danny (S2)
John Vito & Jill (S3)
Uchenna & Joyce (S7)
David & Mary (S10)
Charla & Mirna (S5)
Rob & Amber (S7)
Teri & Ian (S3)
Eric & Danielle (S9)
Joe & Bill (S1)
Dustin & Candice (S10)


I am rooting for Uchenna & Joyce, Charla & Mirna, and David & Mary.
 
I'm rooting for Kevin and Drew, Charla and Mirna, and Joe and Bill :D.

I am extremely excited for the race to start! I'm hoping there will be cameos by other racers who didn't want to race in all stars :).

There are 2 teams that the first name end's with an A (Uchenna & Joyce, Charla & Mirna) so hopefully we'll get to hear Phil's accent slip when he says their names :p
 
Since I'm not a big Rob and Amber fan, I wish that could
have gotten another team. But I look forward watching it
dispite of them.
 
Just resurrecting a thread; feel free to discuss The Amazing Race here, which is now starting its 23rd season. :)


THE AMAZING RACE is a multi-Emmy Award-winning reality series hosted by Emmy Award- nominated host Phil Keoghan, which pits 11 teams, each comprised of two members, against each other on a trek around the world for approximately 25 days. At every destination, each team must compete in a series of challenges, some mental and some physical, and only when the tasks are completed will they learn of their next location. Teams who are the farthest behind will gradually be eliminated as the contest progresses, with the first team to arrive at the final destination winning THE AMAZING RACE.
