Who were your favorite amazing race contestants? Last season, mine were "the hippies". I was glad they won. I really liked their "We're gonna live our lives our way" attitude.

So who were your favorites? Other seasons are ok too.

I liked them too. I thought it was really funny when one of the frat boys said something like, "It would be our luck that the final competition required brains".

I liked the nerds too for a similar reason. They are nerds ... they recognize it ... and they are comfortable with themselves.

I also liked Fran and Barry Lazarus, the couple married 40 years. Despite the obvious limitations of age, they did really well! Especially when Fran climbed that rock face! Lots of twenty-somethings wouldn't have been able to do that!

Actually, the entire group of contestants last season were probably the most likeable of any reality show I can remember seeing.

I was impressed that the Amazing Race got TWO Miss America contestants on the show this year! Miss New York and Miss California. Did anyone notice whether they said what year they competed? Was it this last year?

I was also impressed with the young woman who lost her leg and how well she did climbing the Wall of China! She should be proud!

Who was (is) your favorite team? I'm not sure that I can decide yet.

This is my favorite reality show on T.V. but I am having a lot of trouble getting used to the new day. I have missed all but the first episode and I missed half of it!

I have to say that I do like the way they are switching things up this year. I hope they stay on air for a long, long time!!

My favorite all time team Kevin and Drew ~ 1st season! I loved to watch them, they were so funny!! I hope they do the All-Star version that I keep on hearing about!

It is rather annoying that CBS put the Amazing Race on after 60 minutes which is almost always delayed due to football games running over. It makes it just that much easier to miss the beginning because there's no way of telling when that will be.

I just saw an ad for the upcoming season of the Amazing Race but I missed the premiere date. Can anyone help?

I gotta see it because I heard that this season it's the Hawaiian Tropic Girls Version!!!

Just in case any of you haven't already figured me out; I lie Exclamation

The Amazing Race premieres on Sunday, November 4, 2007 at 8pm Eastern and Pacific. My favorite reality show! Can't wait!

OK. I knew there was a reason why I'd never want to be a contestant on "The Amazing Race". This coming Sunday's episode will have a task that requires the contestants to pose as body builder in itsy bitsy bikinis for the gals and speedos for the guys! Host Phil Keoghan won't go that far himself but he will take his shirt off.

The cast of Survivor could only wish that they looked as good showing that much flesh as do the Amazing Race contenders. Even grandparents Cathi and Bill Alden look amazing.

So am I happy that my pleasantly plump physique isn't among those of all those beautiful people for all of the world to see. Well ... perhaps if pot bellies ever come back into style!

Monday morning, Cindy Chiang and Ernie Halvorsen reflected on what it was like to win this season of the Amazing Race while appearing on ABC's "Live!" morning show.

Ernie said that it was Cindy's idea to apply. He added that his favorite challenge was when they had to pose in skimpy little outfits as body builders. Cindy said her least favorite was when she had to walk through high winds on a tightrope between two skyscrapers.

The couple plans to marry in March and the $1 million prize will make for a pretty good wedding present!
