"The season will launch with a special 90-minute premiere on September 17, 2006 at 8:30pm"
wooo!! back for another season, can't wait
so yea, this is just a thread to remind me this is only just over a month away ... countdown time!

fuck yeah. i've been missing this show. there's been fuck-all good on thursdays since it finished.
woo!
are we still waaaay behind the US, or have the seasons caught up?
oh, by the way, that's the US launch time ... who knows if/when channel 7 will pick it up .. hopefully early, like last season
kuro: last season, we started screening the day after the US ... then we dropped off, thanks to the comm. games, i think
okay. I remember watching it on Foxtel earlier this year and inadvertantly going to the AR site and finding out who won accidentally. Spoiled it for me. We were about five season behind at the time.
uhhh
that just means you were watching a repeat
not counting the "family" edition, for the last 2 odd years, we've always screened within a few months of the US .... never 5 seasons behind
hahahaha, you sounded like badalex then.
Uh.
hehe!
I rarely watch free to air, so I've no idea.
its fox 8 thats behind. free to air is up to date i believe
there ya go.
Who won last season?
Was it the hippies?
I watched the middle part of the season before dropping off towards the end.
uhh ... ok
i don't understand why you'd watch something from 5 seasons ago on foxtel, instead of the most recent one on free to air, but whatever floats your boat
yes, the hippies won
horse, I'll watch almost anything on the telly. Like I said, I avoid the free to airs a lot of the time. You still sound like badalex when you say "uhh..." :)
well, avoiding free to air if you wanna watch TAR is cutting your nose off to spite your face
sigh I wasn't 'following' it week to week, I'd watch it if it was on. If I wanted to follow the current show, of course I'd watch the free to air broadcast.
the go is:
the series on fox 8 was so old it was easy to assume it was a new one because i never watched it from the start. when fox 8 caught up to the ones id seen on FTA i realised what was happening
there's a big event happening in Syd, Melb and Bris later in the year called something like the Kodak Urban Max event which is based on the Amazing Race concept - teams of two people, completing a series of tasks around the city. could be fun?
Imma make ohyeah participate with me. She loves participation.
I like watching the tantrums. I feel awful that the 'ugly American' myth may be perpetrated by some of the the (predominantly) American teams, yelling at hapless taxi drivers and airline staff because they're all in a mad panic.

So do I.
My wife had work bro's who downloaded the series for her as they came out.
Kynt / Kent and Vyxsyn were on Bones once. LOL.
my wife says she saw vysyn on sheer genius
Got kinda boring towards the end of this series i thought.
zev & justin got screwed beyond belief lol. they were good value.
the final challenge was weak as.... it's meant to be an epic challenge that breaks you... whack.
the ads for the aussie series aren't looking as promising as I would have liked
The Adelaide team is some C-grade Nova radio celebrity with big boobs and her sister... with big boobs.
Plus they got some Phil-looking guy to host it.
when does it start? i am curious to watch and laugh at people freaking out under stress.
This Australian one seems bad. To be expected I guess.
i miss phil the most. the entrepreneur couple are completely objectionable.
I'm glad Mo and Mos aren't out yet. They were pretty good value compared to most of the other couples.
oooops. missed it. was it on ch7?
Yeaqh, 8.30 last night. No doubt there will be an encore presentation before next week.
But... hipster surfers from NSW and entrepreneur couple.
I can't stand ye.
I hate that a final team's chance can be totally stuffed by a dud taxi driver
thinking if this had been released by chris lilley's new show, it would be hailed as genius. like the laconic nature of some of the team, definitely not like the american version. entrepreneurs are still vile.
One Oh Five!!!!!!!!!!!!
one of those truth is stranger then fiction moments
focus, believe, achieve .... fuckwits
we must be due a new season of this soon.
it's on. i like the snowboarders. don't like the bickering siblings.
I like Survivors. On Survivor.
