The Amazing Race > Amazing Race 32 Start to Finish!
TAR 32 Premiere Date Postponed>>NOW ON THE FALL SCHEDULE!

That was indeed very stupid on CBS' part. But at the same time, and I'm not trying to be a corporate shill for CBS, they may have been more confident 2 weeks ago in having Survivor or other shows ready for the fall. Obviously, everything is very uncertain these days. And things can change day to day.
So while cruel to get fans' hopes up, there's certainly a good amount of leeway to be given during such an unprecedented situation.
Still, it should've been pretty obvious even back then that regardless of how better or worse the situation gets in the next few months, there WILL be holes on broadcast networks' primetime schedules. So they definitely shouldn't have scheduled a summer run in the first place.
But, this is the situation now. And we can just hope that this further delay can actually end up being very positive for the show in the long run.

Anyone have insight or opinions on this?? How or even will it affect TAR?

Pure speculation but maybe it would make NBC more likely to pick up TAR if CBS decided to drop it.

I think her NBC transition will be good for their network for scheduling new reality competitions. Besides The Voice, the only other "alternative program" on that network that is still airing, that I can name off the top of my head, is Ellen's Game of Games which is kind of similar to The Price is Right's formatting.
This doesn't tell me who the new SVP personnel is at CBS and I hope he or she means well for evaluating The Amazing Race.
