Meet the 13 new teams that will embark on the journey of a lifetime when the 36th season of the CBS Original series THE AMAZING RACE kicks off Wednesday, March 13 (9:30-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and streaming on Paramount+ (live and on demand for Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscribers, or on demand for Paramount+ Essential subscribers the day after the episode airs)*.

Host Phil Keoghan kicks off the RACE from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where the 13 new teams must participate in a traditional Mexican rodeo and lasso their way to the finish line without coming in last. The stakes are high because there are no non-elimination legs, and the team to finish last in each leg will be eliminated. Along the route, Racers will go paragliding in Colombia, rally car racing in Argentina, and visit two new countries – swimming through waterfalls in the Dominican Republic and visiting music superstar Rihanna’s childhood home in Barbados.

“This season of THE AMAZING RACE features a cast of adventurous thrill-seekers. We always want to challenge our cast and surprise our viewers, so we are excited to travel to two new countries along the route,” said executive producers Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri. “The 90-minute episodes are returning, which really allows us to delve into the countries on the route and get to know our amazing cast. We are ready for a global adventure like never before.”

This season on THE AMAZING RACE, one of the 13 teams trekking around the world will be eliminated at the end of every leg. Each team is comprised of two people who have a pre-existing relationship with one another. At every destination, each team competes in a series of challenges – some mental and some physical – and when the tasks have been completed, they learn their next destination. The locations that teams will travel to include Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Barbados, Dominican Republic and Pennsylvania state, where the first team to cross the final finish line will be crowned the winner of THE AMAZING RACE and win the $1 million prize.

Jerry Bruckheimer, Bertram van Munster, Jonathan Littman, Elise Doganieri, Mark Vertullo, Phil Keoghan and Patrick Cariaga are the executive producers for Jerry Bruckheimer Television and Earthview Inc. in association with ABC Studios and Amazing Race Productions. THE AMAZING RACE was created by Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri.

First trailer for season 36.

Is every team seen in the trailer?

[ghmorello]

Very odd that they showed the finale for a second.

Very odd that they showed the finale for a second.

Gritty is the greatest and will make sure he is shown in the promo even if it’s the final episode

Very odd that they showed the finale for a second.

At least this time, they didn't spoil any team.

The reel with Phil looking out over Puerto Vallarta was at the Mirador el Cerro de la Cruz (Hill of the Cross viewpoint) just east of the old town.

CBS ANNOUNCES SEASON FINALE AIRDATES FOR 2023-2024

Wednesday, May 15
   

9:30-11:00 PM            THE AMAZING RACE (36th season finale)

This will be a 10 episode season!

[kyleisalive]

Probably combining the DR legs as anticipated.

[ghmorello]

So one week may be a double elimination or we get 4 teams for finale week and begin the finale with the last elimination leg.

5 - 9th place eliminated in Chile.
6 - 8th place eliminated in Argentina Megaleg.
7 - 7th place eliminated in Uruguay.
8 - 6th place eliminated in 1st Barbados leg.
9 - 5th place eliminated in 2nd Barbados leg.
10 - 1st half is Dominican Republic leg and 2nd half is United States leg.

[ianthebalance]

I thought we had only one Barbados leg and two Dominican Republic legs?

[Maanca]

Yeah, I'm still trying to figure this out. Will the Argentina megaleg all be one episode?

Considering these legs were originally designed for 60 minutes, they could probably pull that off in 90

[TriciCriti]

I'm assuming we'll have Argentina Mega Leg in one episode(Episode 6) and two Dominican Republic legs in one episode(Episode 9).
Just some random guesses.

[kyleisalive]

Based on the promo info for Ep 6 it's a pretty educated guess: https://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,38398.0.html
