The Amazing Race 5 Gets the Green Light

Monday, September 15, 2003

CBS has given executive producers Bertram van Munster and Jerry Bruckheimer the green light to begin casting for a fifth installment of the Emmy-nominated reality hit The Amazing Race.

The network traditionally lets its reality producers begin casting only when there's a solid shot of a pickup or renewal, particularly when it comes to existing franchises.

The Amazing Race 4, hosted by Phil Keoghan, was a solid Nielsen performer for CBS this summer in a difficult 8 p.m. Thursday slot, building ratings momentum as its season went along.

lol i wont give a damn anyway even if it airs at 3am as long as seven puts it on.

why seven? why ont another channel? doesnt the first few episodes get shown at a decent hour, then after a couple (when people start getting interested) it gets put back later?

i think seven has got the rights to TAR just like how nine have rights to survivor they're stuck with it! unless nine want to out bid seven for the show...
