CBS put off making the announcement, but finally, The Amazing Race will be renewed for another season. Via Deadline:
Amazing Race, which also was not among the 11 returning and five freshman series that were renewed back in March, is having only one installment this season for the first time since the Emmy heavyweight’s 2001 debut. The veteran aired in the Friday 8 PM slot recently but the network found success this season with MacGyver in the hour, which has invigorated the entire night. Still, Race is a legacy series for the network, a 15-time Emmy winner.
A series with so much history surely deserves an anniversary 30th season at least, right? No word on whether CBS plans to cut back TAR to one cycle per season or ramp back up to two.
