'The Amazing Race': Is UCF's Miss America taking part?
posted by halboedeker on Sep 8, 2009 8:16:20 AM

Is Orlando native Ericka Dunlap -- Miss America 2004 -- on "The Amazing Race" this season?

That's the hot rumor on the Internet. CBS won't announce the cast until tomorrow.

Dunlap earned a degree in advertising and public relations from the University of Central Florida. She was the first African-American to win the Miss Florida title. (Dunlap is pictured enjoying her victory after being crowned Miss America in 2003.)

According to Internet buzz, Dunlap and her husband, Brian Kleinschmidt, are taking part in the CBS show.

The 15th edition of "The Amazing Race" will have a two-hour premiere at 8 p.m. Sept. 27.

From The Orlando Sentinel

Glad to see it's revealed tomorrow. I was thinking they'd only reveal the cast on the episode itself.

No spoilers in the Discussion board please!

And good thing they won't (wait that long)!  Especially for those that need his or her pre-race opinions and for that need to know who's who for TAR seasonal games.  Although I'm sure that there are other options in case they actually did that.
Every reality star is someone's favorite

Winning isn't everything, but it isn't considered nothing either. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a tribal council, a pit-stop, a boardroom, dimming of the lights, and so on

Can't wait for the season to start. I don't want to start another folder, but if someone can PM me with a streaming site for TAR's season premiere, let me know. My TV went out during the summer and I have yet to replace it. I'm surviving watching TV shows and sports through various sites like Justin TV.

Do not put the site here. PM please. Thanks.

Well, yes that's the obvious answer, but right now, I'm in the midst of a home repair project so a new TV has to wait a while.

It's not exactly the news media, but Phil and TAR were used as the $12,500 question on tonight's episode of the syndicated "Who Wants to be a Millioniare" with Meredith Viera. The contestant had to call her brother for help, but she did get it right.

Basically, it was "Phil is the host of which popular reality show?" I think the other three choices were Survivor, Project Runway, and Dancing with the Stars, but I really didn't pay attention to those.  :funny:

President Obama being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize wasn't the only surprise for me this morning. I got a Google Alert about a former reality contestant who, as it turns out, worked in casting for TAR at the time TAR won its first Emmy in 2003. He's now a local news anchor starting in Orlando this coming week. And this guy was quite likeable when he was on Big Brother 3 (in 2002). Jason Guy (link)

I wonder if his new station will let Jason interview Erika and Brian? It will be rare to have someone in the news media do a Racer interview who actually knows TAR first hand, even from the production side.

Ugh, the Peace Prize choice is simply not right. :groan:

The home of TAR 11 through 14 on cable, Fox Reality Channel, will shut down in March 2010.

Fox Reality Channel shutting down
Network to end run in March after four years


Oct 14, 2009, 10:25 PM ET
Fox Reality Channel will cease operations next year.

Fox Networks Group told staffers Wednesday that the 4-year-old channel will end its run March 31.

The network aired a mix of acquired reality repeats such as "Temptation Island" and "Last Comic Standing" and some original reality content like "American Idol Extra."

The company has not yet announced what it will do with the channel, which is distributed to 50 million homes.

"With the changing cable landscape, we've made a strategic decision to shift some resources and refocus on emerging channels," the company said. "However, Fox Reality Channel will remain on our lineup for at least the next several months."
