It was most likely planned like that so Survivor could have its Finale the next Sunday.

One thing I like to think about is the Kisha and Jen are competitors. Their unfinished business was not winning the race.
Gary and Mallory really wanted the experience. They weren't ultra competitive. Their unfinished business was not FINISHING the race :)

so a very happy ending indeed!!  :hearts:

Yes, I am sure Kandace is right. CBS works backwards from the end of the May sweeps period and schedules the Survivor finale on the final Sunday. That leaves one Sunday prior for the Amazing Race finale. For AR18 this meant based on when it started (dictated to a large extent by editing time needed) that one Sunday would need a 2 hour double episode telecast.
