Seems like the usual fill every demographic, have only 3-4 teams that have a legit shot at winning cast.

Amani and marcus would be my pick to win but I don't see the wife pulling her weight so my pick goes to the obvious winning team. The snowboarders.

Laurence and Zac Sunderland could be an interesting team; "boating enthusiasts" is kind of an understatement. For non-link clickers, Zac sailed around the world, alone, when he was 17. His sister Abbey is more well-known, but only because she had to be rescued during her solo circumnavigation attempt when her boat was pretty much destroyed in the Indian Ocean.

Seems like the show would be a lot of fun to be on. Plus 16 million doesn't go as far as it used to.

I see why he would want to be on, but the producers picking someone that it a presumed millionaire is kinda meh.

semi spoilers about where they're going and new twists pulled from EW

Spoiler:
The duos will experience a few new twists this time around, including the show’s first ever double elimination, and something called the Hazard, which is a penalty that one team will incur right at the starting line. And for the first time ever, The Amazing Race will be visiting the countries of Belgium, Denmark, Malawi, and Indonesia.

Wooot, looking forward to this.

Btw, has anything yet topped the girl too scared to go down a ****ing waterslide being taunted by the Harlem Globetrotters?

Also, impromptu poll, how many push their girlfriend down the slide there in that spot?

I am READY for this!!
The only thing I have always hated about this time slot is how long football games are always screwing with the actual start time. If ya DVR gotta make sure to do the show after as well.

yes. but i recommend you watch a previous season to see whether or not you will like it. I recommend Season 5 for most people. 7 is widely available on DVD and also not bad.

I mean, I have to memorize lyrics fairly often. But even so, I can't see how this would take someone more than 5 times to get it right. You just chunk it out piece by piece and use your goddamn brain.
