TAR also shows on Arena in Australia if you have Foxtel.

It's about a year behind though, as is the norm in Australia for pay TV showing Free-To-Air shows.

On the plus side, I get to watch classic episodes I missed when I was younger, like the Season 2 finish (Which I saw for the first time only 6 months ago.)

Looks like Finland is just starting Season 10....

http://tiinamichelinda.multiply.com/links/item/17/The_Amazing_Race_in_Finland

MTV3 in Finland is right now airing season 10 and next episode is the Kuwait episode which will air on March 8. MTV3 has broadcasted all the previous seasons. Season 1 aired in spring of 2003. And the show is subtitled and it is quite popular especially now when they are coming to Finland in this season.

Great news from Finland!

Last nights episode was success. It was the Finland episode and it had over 1.3 million viewers! :yess:That means it is the second most watched TV show this year (most watched is Finnish version of Dancing with the stars)! 1.3 million sounds few for you maybe but it's lot in Finland.

In Helsingin Sanomat newspaper was interesting interview of Dustin and Kandice's taxi driver. In many newspapers and websites was interviews of the owner of the Kappeli café and workers of Tytyri mine. Now we know why they went to the Kappeli café.

Cool.

AXN just finished airing a rerun of TARA 2 here. They also reran TAR 13 a few weeks ago.

OLN in Canada has "Amazing Race Syndicated" (sic) Monday to Friday 6pm to 7pm.

They are showing Season 2 this week.

AXN is also apparently airing TARA 3 every Thursday at 8 pm here.

I have been looking without success so far, but I thought that some of the seasons had aired in Finland, but my friend has not replied to my email.

In Finland Amazing Race is aired by MTV3; see the page of the show here. TAR FE finished April, and TAR9 is scheduled to start September. I believe TAR4 was the first season aired, but cannot guarantee I'm 100% correct about this.

I don't know is this already answered, but I believe that MTV3 has shown every single season here in Finland.

I think Singapore rocks. Channel 5 airs The Amazing Race about half an hour faster than in the USA.

I tape all Amazing Races stripped of commercials and the length of a U.S. Amazing Race not including next episode previews (which are about 30 seconds maximum) is 41 minutes. It is mathematically impossible in one hour for the Phillipines to show it 30 minutes faster, but we get the idea of what you are trying to get across.

Unless they play the shows at a faster speed which some TV stations actually do to fit in commercials. It's a sneaky trick they play.

Neobie · « **Reply #43 on:** July 12, 2009, 08:26:14 AM »

Unbeknownst to many Singaporeans, Channel 5 edits the footage they receive from the US (they mostly leave the direct feed telecast untouched though).

Since way back in TAR 4, shots like many of the Reichen/Chip moments got left out in repeat telecasts, including the bit in the opening sequence where they kiss each other - so we're left with a very strange slow-motion shot of them popping out of the pool. This gay/lesbian censorship has continued at the very least into TAR 11, when the same thing happened with Oswald/Danny's hand-kissing scene in the opening sequence.

But if Channel 5 is bad (I won't be the judge), AXN is worse, cutting entire scenes for absolutely no reason, except maybe to get more advertising revenue (which is strange, since they don't do that many commercials anyway). Out of a 42-minute show, about 5-minutes can inexplicably vanish. What?

So, pros and cons, people!

Pegasus15 · « **Reply #46 on:** July 24, 2009, 08:20:48 AM »

Anybody know if any of the TV stations in Ireland (or the UK, we get most of their channels) is showing any season of TAR at the moment or soon? I know Living TV had 9 a while ago, but I've seen that season.

jerseydude · « **Reply #47 on:** July 25, 2009, 06:32:39 AM »

In Taiwan its on AXN for China do they even have TAR??

I always watch it on Chinese Youtube (Youku) which has bad quality but at least it is watchable. It also come out around 1-2 days late because they have to add Chinese subtitles with sometimes rude comments. Like for TAR 14, when Jen and Kisha are yelling at these chinese people, comments come up with the subtitles.

Hi!

MTV3 in Finland started airing Amazing Race All-Stars last Sunday.
Here is the official site: http://www.mtv3.fi/amazingrace

And I just like to say thank you for all those spoilers! Great job!

Cocoa · « **Reply #49 on:** September 08, 2009, 05:42:33 PM »

Here in the Philippines, The Amazing Race can be seen either on AXN and Studio 23. Studio 23 has been airing TAR since Season 3 (I think, because its the earliest season I watched there). TAR Mania here is definitely up, and even newspaper articles feature TAR (even Survivor too!)
