The Amazing Race

[just_me]

The Amazing Race is a reality television game show in which teams race around the world in competition with other teams. Contestants strive to arrive first at the end of each leg of the race to avoid the possibility of elimination. Teams are progressively eliminated until three teams are left; at that point, the team which arrives first in the final leg is awarded a large cash grand prize.

Contestants travel to and within multiple countries in a variety of transportation modes, including planes, taxis, rental cars, trains and boats. The clues in each leg point the teams to the next destination or direct them to perform a task, either together or by a single member. Each task showcases the geographic region or indigenous culture and customs it is held in. If a team is in last place at the end of a leg of the race, they may be forced to stop competing or have a significant disadvantage in the following leg.

Does anyone watch The Amazing Race? Would you ever consider going on the show?

think that would fun yea
I saw something in the UK which was similar where the contestants had to get from one country to another with only a limited (very) amount of money
so they had to beg for lifts and stuff
was pretty interesting but some of it seemed a bit staged to make a race to the finish line

it looks fairly interesting, perhaps more than fairly...perhaps...perhaps.

I think if I were ever to watch a reality show that might be the one that I would tune my rabbit ears into!

The Amazing Racist would be a more watched show I think.

And so, I rest my case.

I didn't know it was a real show!
I thought the whole thing was a hypothetical!
