Looks like they have another good crew. Glad to see a couple of ex- NFL cheerleaders back in the group, they never win but do attract attention around the world. A lot of good looking female partners too. This program does more for American prestige around the world than most stumblebum leftist Ambassadors.

All those good looking people, exotic by their standards, suddenly descending with all the film crew on a place like Bangladesh/Chile/Namibia/ etc., etc. You don't think that make an impression ?, and quite a change from their normal humdrum lives, as well as injecting $$ into the local economies.

Get ready to see 11 new teams embark on another race around the world for the $1 million grand prize when The Amazing Race premieres on September 25. Leading up to the new season, CBS has revealed all of the locations that those teams will be traveling to, including some places that the show has never stepped foot in before.

Also, a new video has been released giving a preview of what's to come.

The Amazing Race Nominated at 2015 Emmy Awards >>>

The 11 destinations viewers will get to see in season 27 are:

Agra, India
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Hong Kong/Macau, China
Krakow, Poland
Long Island, New York
Paris, France
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Rotterdam, Netherlands
San Antonio de Areco, Argentina
Victoria Falls, Zambia
Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

The Amazing Race always begins and ends the race in the United States. The starting line will be in Venice Beach, California, which means we can assume the finish line is in New York.

The show will be heading to the country of Zimbabwe for the very first time. And the city of Rotterdam, in the Netherlands, will be brand-new territory for The Amazing Race as well. (They've been to the Netherlands before, just not this particular city.)

Once the race begins, the teams will travel to Rio de Janeiro, where a Fast Forward could be a big game-changer. Other challenges they'll face around the world include doing the tango in Argentina, pairing up with a rapper in France, get involved with a high-flying water show in China, and even swimming with crocodiles and freefalling over 200 feet in Zimbabwe.

It sounds like this will be another exciting season to watch this fall. But don't take my word for it. Check out this preview video of what we can expect:


As you can see, these teams are being put in situations that will test them physically, mentally and emotionally; they'll even encounter lions and crocodiles that's sure to put them on edge. Host Phil Keoghan's voiceover says, "Emotions run high," which is always the case. In the above video, some teams get frustrated over trying to finish a challenge and others argue with each other. The final line that one of the women says is hilarious: "It's a million dollars; I'll buy you new feet. Come on, let's go!"


Are you excited for the new season of The Amazing Race? Which location are you looking forward to the most? And are there any challenges in the video that you can't wait to see?

The Amazing Race season 27 premieres Friday, September 25 at 8pm on CBS.

Tomorrow night !  Survivor and The Amazing Race help fill the holes in our psyches with the conclusion of Big Brother. This season's TAR doesn't have another Laura Pierson but then we can't expect that two seasons in a row. Of course they never had "her" in any other season either, so......

I wouldn't go so far as to say that this season is 'boring', rather, the other teams aren't as close to being as good as the front runners as they have been in past seasons. And Justin/Diana aren't very appealing compared to some past season winners and front runners.

He's probably right as to who will be the Final 3. All in all this season didn't have many, if any, appealing teams that we were rooting for, probably just the Cheerleaders.

Tonight is a second episode in India this season. They have been there in past seasons and I usually find it to be a boring episode. Some 3rd world countries are interesting to see and see how the local populace reacts to the crazy Americans coming through. (you can be sure that the producers hand out the big $, by local standards, to keep the 'audience' happy). In some countries there isn't one woman to be seen in the audience, this is almost the case in India but the mass of humanity just gets annoying, and why does such poverty and squalor exist at every turn in a country that is otherwise considered "progressive"...

A brutal leg...

I would like to see Tiffany and Krista win but they are up against some stiff competition.

http://www.buddytv.com/articles/the-amazing-race/the-amazing-race-predictions-w-58243.aspx

He's right that Justin and Diana are not in danger as the preview implies, but they would not be popular winners.

Well heck. Tiffany and Krista would have gotten 3rd place and be going to the final if the taxi driver hadn't screwed them up. Even Krista's inexplicably long time trying to find the golden fish wouldn't have sunk them because of Justin and Diana's 55 minute penalty .

He's probably right about the winners. This season is a far cry from last season with Laura Pierson's very popular win not to mention picking up a massive bevy of fan boys.

The pundits were wrong ! Everyone is glad that Justin and Diana didn't win. Kelsey and Joey weren't the most appealing winners, ever, but they deserve the million $.
