The Amazing Race > The Amazing Race Discussion
Some interesting (and some not so interesting) facts and records!
Lemontail:
According to a 2010 Experian Simmons survey, The Amazing Race was found to be the second-highest show proportion of viewers that identify themselves as Republicans, following Glenn Beck.
I wonder if it has changed in 9 years at all.

In that 2010 study, TAR was the #1 non-news, non-music show for Republicans. It did not appear on the Top 25 list for Democrats.
The latest study where TAR showed up on the list was 2014 and it was on the Republican Favorites list.
TAR also was a Top 20 favorite for Republicans in 2012.
It hasn't appeared on the more recent studies, most likely because of the show's far smaller audience and visibility after 2014's move to Friday.

You missed Jody for counting winners got saved by NEL/KOR/TBC
dryedmangoez:
Oh, that's right. I did count them in the season count though.
TAR30 is the only season to have all final three teams survive a NEL/KOR. But of course there's a "*" to that because of the Partner Swap.
