Amazing Race to have 'All-Star' version in 2007
by bootlegga on Thu Nov 23, 2006 5:26 pm
CBS has announced that its wildly popular reality TV show, "The Amazing Race" will have an all-star season next year, bringing back fan favourites for another chance at $1 million.
Whether this will be a disaster like Survivor's All-Star last year (from a ratings standpoint anyways) or very popular like Big Brother's recent foray into bringing back old competitors is yet to be seen.

CBS has confirmed that the upcoming 11th edition of the Emmy-winning reality series "The Amazing Race," produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Bertram van Munster, will feature cast members from previous seasons of the show. Production on "The Amazing Race: All-Stars" began last week in Miami and will premiere in first-quarter 2007.
"Race" becomes the third CBS unscripted series to go all-star. "Survivor" began the trend a few years ago, while "Big Brother" followed suit last summer.
A CBS spokesman confirmed the all-star nature of the next "Race" but declined comment on which past cast members will return.
Variety reports that Rob and Amber -- who appeared on "Race" after appearing on two editions of "Survivor" -- will be given another shot at the top prize.
They are expected to square off against Joyce and Uchenna, their two chief opponents in season seven of "Race." The latter team narrowly won that edition. Also lacing up again: Kentucky's David and Mary.

for some reason I watch this show, the only reality show I watch. I think it might be a neat season.

I have to admit I really liked Joyce/Uchenna and Mary/Dave, but I'm really sick of those two morons from Boston...they are so damned annoying.
