I would sign the petition if someone started one.

How and where did you do that?Did it cost much.

Has anyone heard of when we will get series one on dvd,how far behind the u.s are we i can't find any information on the release date anywhere.

Charmed I'm sure. I have hated Tom on the Mole since day one when he made all the stuff ups live. Grant was much better. Bring back Grant.

The Mole is fast building to a climax, so maybe we might have time for an Amazing Race series before ratings finish for the year. Here's hoping. I could watch that show constantly, continuously etc etc.

Just found a free site to download series eight,watched the first two episodes.it's different don't know if i prefer it this way but it will do to cure my fix.

Quoted from vexatious

Channel 7 are hoping to make we fans of TAR shift our loyalties to The Mole.  

lol i think we have - it rates just as well as TAR did and its production values are very very high. I think seven could get away with making its own verion of TAR and have it look like the real deal.

Did anyone else hear that there is going to be an Australian version of the amazing race?

They were advertising in the sunday papers about an aussie race,i think they were calling it the reel race they might even have a website if you want to apply.Has anyone heard of when we will get series one on dvd,can't find info anywhere.I think they are bringing series seven out in December.

As long as Tom Williams is not hosting it.........

Another lover of the Amazing Race. Bring it back!
"The Mole"  just doesn'
t do it for me.

Just checked out cbs and they are taping series 9 this month and they are going to air it early next year.Seven will probably show 8 and 9 together next year.I will do what i am doing now with series 8 and watch it as it comes out in the states,i'm getting eight about twenty four hours after it airs in the states.

I've had to restrain myself on what I read about The Amazing Race.. for the usual fear of finding out something I dont want to know. A while ago I was so desperate to look at TAR website that I did... and as the page was loading I saw 'CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS OF AMAZING RACE 6 - FREDDY & KENDRA!'... and that was about 4-5 episodes to go until the final aired here. D'oh!

I am such a fan of TAR. I'd count it as one of my all-time favourite shows, which is why I get PISSED OFF by the airing schedule and not being able to look at the websites.

From what little I have allowed myself to read about TAR8 Family Edition has been that it didn't work quite as well as they hoped. Apparently it is not worldwide, but restricted to basically the American Landmass (dunno what else to call it).. ie, throughout United States, also Canada and up to Alaska and down to south America too, which is sensible I guess. But apparently when you dealt with teams of four it was a lot more dfficult, especially when some of those members were younger kids. I don't know what the age requirement was, 14 year old? Anyway they said it was an interesting experiment and they did have fun but they wont try that format again.

Hey I'd be happy for *any* amazing race. If I still had Foxtel I'd probably be watching the repeats.

Friends of mine in the US say that the family season was a big yawn...a big part of the appeal of the show is the exotic locations, watching the people deal with language propblems, seeing the tasks which are usually based on local customs etc.  Apparently doing the whole thing in the US and Canada made it very boring because you missed all of that.

Sadly I know who won the season already so not sure I'll be watching next season too much.

I have seen it as well,and even though it wasn't as good as the usual format i will still tape it so i can keep my collection complete.I was happy with the winners because they were my team right from the start.They are going to air series 9 in February in the u.s.
