Remember though too that being the first season everything was fresh and new. The challanges, the places, the rules, the regulations, Phil's place in the whole thing. Many things have changed, saome for the better, some not. But, the fact that The Amazing Race is still going strong is a testiment to all those involved from Phil, the Racers and the production staff to the camera people, sound people and beuracrats that allow all of this to happen.

I love this season, though I truely miss Phil at the mat.  And I really liked Rob & Brennan (I like nice guys and gals).

I hated (until about leg4 or 5) Kevin & Drew who were awful to each other.  Its funny if it was a male/ female team that talked that way to each other I think people would have a completely different opinion about Kevin & Drew.

But we had quite a bit of really extreme characters.  Kim & Leslie hate, Loud and Pushy Frank, Kevin & Drew screaming at each other, Amie's constant crying, Paul constant threats to quit if she kept crying. Lenny and Karin relationship falling completely apart.

And I tend not to like the really extreme characters (TTOW!), so I liked Dave and Margaretta, Momily, Rob & Brennan.

But I loved the locations and the tasks.

I wonder what would've been of the betting internet sites, had TAR kept the same intro style from Season 1

The shot of Kevin and Drew (actually not them but still...) silhouetted against the sky as they ran across the bridge to the Falls was what made me lose my heart completely to TAR...

Season one was fresh and new, and the racers had NO idea what to expect, nor, as viewers did we. Which was the charm of that first season.

TARA 1 had the same freshness about it as well.
