The most anticipated TV shows of 2025
USA TODAY TV critic Kelly Lawler shares her top 5 TV shows she is most excited for this year
“The Amazing Race” is back for its most jam packed adventure in the show’s nearly 25 year run.
Season 37 of the Emmy-winning reality competition series hosted by Phil Keoghan will follow 14 duos traveling across the world, the largest cast in the show’s history, all vying for the $1 million prize.
Though the goal of each team has always been simple – to not be last – the journey is anything but. Competitors must overcome mental and physical challenges at various Pit Stops in order to learn their next location. The teams that are last to reach the Pit Stop will gradually be eliminated with each episode.
The Season 37 cast’s first stop will be in Hong Kong, where the contestants will learn a surprise twist that forces them to choose which direction and route they want to take, CBS confirmed. The twist will create two parallel races where two teams will be eliminated at separate pit stops.
Here’s what to know about Season 37 of “The Amazing Race.”
