Obviously, I (and many others) are devastated with the decision to put TAR33 on hiatus. However, the health, safety & wellbeing of the production crew & the contestants is of the upmost importance and they have made the right decision! Let's hope this is only temporary!
--- Quote ---“Due to increased concerns and uncertainty regarding the coronavirus around the world, CBS and the producers of The Amazing Race have taken the precautionary measure of temporarily suspending production on the 33rd season of the series,” the network said today. “All contestants and production staff are in the process of returning home.”
“At this time, no Racers or anyone on the production team traveling with them have contracted the virus or shown symptoms, and we are not aware of anyone being exposed to it,”

For example, Bachelor in Paradise 2017 was temporarily suspended filming due to two contestants being treated from sexual misconduct, most of that cast returned to filming a couple of days later. I wonder the race might have to restart filming all over again.

Kind of figured this was coming once it got so bad in Italy. Everyone’s health and safety comes first. Hopefully they can get rolling again here soon once Spring officially gets here and kills off the strand for now.

Because up until this week, it was mostly contained to China but now at least Italy and SK (out of potential countries they’ll go to, it’s bad in Iran too but ain’t nobody going there) are getting hit really hard.
