THE AMAZING RACE 5?
 
Anyone know if and when there will be a new AMAZING RACE #5? Loved that show!

I love that show, too!!! Yes, I believe application deadline for 5th season was sometime in January...or was it October... anyway, I did a google search just the other day and found it is in the works! :-)

I'm a big fan too! Has anyone ever "run" into the contestants during filming?

Can't wait for the new season!

Thanks...great news! I'm a huge fan of the show too.

Way off topic here, but dcespedes: based on your screen name I think our husbands may know each other through work. Without giving too much personal info away, do you live in TX? My husband's initials are CP and we live in San Diego.

Small world.

Either way, welcome to the forum!

I would like to know when Amazing Race 5 will be aired - the current batch of reality shows, even the latest, The Apprentice, can't hold a flame to the AR.

Better be soon, AR fans are waiting for a real "adventure challenge" program.

Hi Jocelyn_P! Yes, you're on the right track...we live in San Antonio, Texas....now my curiosity is peaked! Small world indeed. In search of info on Italy I discovered this forum by accident nearly a week ago and can't seem to tear myself away....I love it here...

Jocelyn_P Mar 18th, 2004 05:37 AM

dcespedes--yes, this place is great! I discovered it a few months ago while researching (funny) our upcoming Italy trip.

Our last name is Powell. If you're still not sure (maybe my husband talks more than yours does!) you can email me at [email protected]. My husband has great respect for your husband!

We're actually leaving San Diego in a few weeks and moving out to Tulsa. Shorter flight time to Europe. ;)

Things are looking up. The first day of spring on Saturday and a new Amazing Race in the summer. We were devoted fans as soon as we discovered the show. Missed the first and part of the second, but always tuned in after that.
Looking forward to #5.

I've always been afan too. I've been searching the web for info. on AR5 but haven't been able to find much. However, very much looking forward to it whenever it happens. Hope that they can make it more exciting by leaving the contestants more to their own devices to get around from place to place though I can see why that would make it more costly as well as harder to manage. I'd also like to see random eliminations (last pair in gets to pick an envelope which may or may not contain an elimination) That way you'll never know if the round is an elimination one or not. Oh well, wishful thinking.
