The Amazing Race All Stars Coming Soon
From LoveToKnow Celebrity
A number of reality shows have gone the “all-star” route and the latest entry is The Amazing Race All-Stars. By pitting fan favorites against each other for the big prize, reality programs bring in viewers who want to cheer their team on to the end.
The All-Star Concept
Survivor first introduced the all-star idea when they reunited former contestants. The idea was a success, in part because viewers wanted to see the players get another shot at winning. Big Brother recently tried to go the all-star route this past summer, but with moderate success. The Amazing Race All-Stars season will air in 2007.
Fan Favorites
The Amazing Race All-Stars will bring back some of the more popular teams from seasons’ past, most notably, “Rob and Amber” and “Team Kentucky.” Rob and Amber are no strangers to the all-star circuit, having played on different seasons of Survivor before meeting on Survivor All-Stars. They played the game well and made it to the final two, with Amber winning both the million dollars and Rob’s marriage proposal during the live finale. They moved on to The Amazing Race 7 and proved to be fierce players. Their nuptials were also the subject of a reality program and an upcoming Fox reality show will document their life as newlyweds.
Team Kentucky finished sixth during the latest edition of The Amazing Race. The coal miner and his wife gained many fans due to the integrity with which they played the game. They are certain to be one team that fans will be rooting for.
The Amazing Race All-Stars Contestants
While CBS has not confirmed the contestants of The Amazing Race All-Stars, there is much speculation on the Internet. Rob Mariano and Amber Brkich, as well as Dave and Mary Conley (Team Kentucky) are likely to be joined by Uchenna and Joyce Agu (season 7 winners), Colin Guinn and Christie Woods (Amazing Race 5) and cousins Charla and Mirna (also season 5).
