With some of the questionable casting decisions made for Amazing Race 6 and now with the stunt casting again of "celebrities" (Rob and Amber) for number 7, it doesn't bode well for the direction and future of the show.

I found Alison and Donnie both annoying and sad during their participation on AR 5.

I think this is pretty cool. More Amber on television = :thumbsup:

Plus it is great cross-promotion. AR doesn't get the ratings of Survivor. Now many who watch only Survivor will tune to AR.

I started watching this season, but quickly stopped as I could not stand most of the cast, and hated several couples. Looks like I choose the wrong season to start watching. I will try again this next season.

I too would love to see an Amazing Race all-stars. :up:

Should be interesting with Rob and Amber. Watch them finish last on leg one. :lol:

What they should do is have an Amazing Race All-Stars but then switch all the teams around on the first episode. For example, who wouldn't want to see Jonathan paired up with Flo?

I wouldn't even wish that on her - that's just too cruel.

Now TAPOSTNNBN w/ Mirna and Charla. :up:

I would have to agree with this. I am thinking about tuning in and I've never seen the show before but I'm a big Survivor fan.

The support AR gets on this forum doesn't hurt either.

Marcellus and Amy
Cowboy and Drew (or Cowboy and Nakomis)
Sarge and Chris
Ami and her girlfriend
Richard Hatch and boyfriend

Jerri and Colby?!?

I would pay good money to see that match-up. Sue and Rich would be hilarious, too.

Actually, Jeri and Kal (the beef jerky guy, probably got his name wrong) would be a fun couple to watch.

Roto 01-24-05 05:59 PM

I like the idea, but I will be really annoyed if they win this.

Nabalab 01-24-05 07:58 PM

I was talking about this earlier today with a friend of mine.

It will be better if the other teams actually know who they are, from watching "All Stars". That way, they would know how much of a threat that Rob (and Amber) can be.

Then again, many teams in TAR are eliminated because they beat themselves (not necessarily because of another team).

Since I can't stand to even look at Rob, this might be the first season of AR that I don't watch.
