When you think about it, dancers are uniquely qualified to do well in “The Amazing Race.” Many of them travel often to performances, are extremely athletic, have great stamina, and are more often than not used to following long hours. Yes, we do realize that Ernest & Jin were early boots last season, but there […]
We’re back today with our second edition of our “Amazing Race 28” spotlight series, and this time around we’re talking a look at two brothers who have a chance to win a million bucks, expand their social-media reach, and also give us some pretty good entertainment along the way. Cameron and Darius Benson are known […]
While we’ve covered “The Amazing Race” extensively for many years, spotlights of the individual teams is not something that we’ve done before now. Why change things up for this season? The answer to that is ultimately rather simple: There is a much-larger footprint that is out there for many of these teams than there has […]
Usually there is a huge cast reveal day for “The Amazing Race,” and it is a chance to get to know many of the teams that will be taking part in the show moving into the upcoming season. However, things are a little bit different for season 28. This time around, CBS opted to release […]
“The Amazing Race” constantly alternates around in placement in our personal list of favorite shows of all time. While it may be flawed at times (cab drivers ruining racers’ chances, legs that are too easy or too short), it combines our love of seeing the world with reality TV competition and strategy.

The Best Reality Star category is a personal favorite that we do every year for the CarterMatt Awards, mostly because it’s one that other awards-shows ignore other than a couple of broad, sweeping categories that focus on the show rather than the individual. While producers and crew members work tirelessly to make their shows great, would they […]
We’re at this point 27 seasons into “The Amazing Race,” and overall we would say that this is a show that has figured itself out rather well. It knows some of what it does best, what it struggles with, and also its place within the reality TV pantheon. Yet, there are at times ideas that […]
The ratings for Friday night are such that sometimes, it can be a little bit difficult to find something that you can classify officially as a “win.” At the moment, we’re certainly in that situation in looking at most of the important numbers for Friday. The winners – Hey, “Grimm” didn’t fall anymore. It’s a little […]
Last night, season 27 of “The Amazing Race” on CBS ended in a way that the vast majority of people expected for it to: With Kelsey & Joey winning the grand prize and the million dollars. It may seem a little strange to call this the predicted outcome given the dominance of Justin & Diana […]
