Colin and Christie won't be getting a second chance to run the Race, after all.CBS has revealed the identities of all 11 teams on The Amazing Race: All Star Edition, scheduled to launch on February 18th at 8 pm ET/PT.
As expected, the list of players on this installment of The Amazing Race includes reality fame hounds Rob and Amber (their fourth time on a CBS reality series), favorites Charla and Mirna (Season 4) and Drew and Kevin (Season 1) and last season's Team Kentucky (David and Mary, how we've missed ye!) and the Beauty Queens (Dustin and Kandice).
Here's the full list of players, arranged by Season, for your amusement:
Season 1: Team Guido (Joe and Bill); Drew and Kevin
Season 2: Team Cha Cha Cha (Oswald and Danny); John and Jill
Season 3: Teri and Ian
Season 4: Charla and Mirna
Season 7: Uchenna and Joyce; Rob and Amber
Season 9: Eric and Danielle (and, no, they didn't run the Race together, rather it's Eric from the Frat Boys and Danielle from the Pinks)
Season 10: David and Mary; Dustin and Kandice
Hmmm. It's a weird mix of teams this time around. No Colin and Christie, as anticipated. In fact, there's no one up there from Amazing Race Seasons 5 or 6 (not to mention the much loathed Amazing Race: Family Edition, but no surprise there).
Hell, I was hoping to see Kris and Jon get another shot at the million bucks. After all, they lost out to Freddie and Kendra after a final challenge involving eating some pizza that time. Yes, pizza.
Comments
I have to go look up some of these people. I don't remember them.
I am sad there is no Kris and Jon, but ecstatic about Kevin and Drew. Bring on the All-Stars!
Unfortunately, it looks like I'm not about to start now. I've never been able to stomach much Rob Mariano and I'm certainly not going to subject myself to him on purpose even if I do get to see Ambuh in a bikini.
Besides the famewhore angle, of course.
I would have loved to see more of Colin (and his hairy chest) and Christie. Forgot about Jon and Kris. They would have been better than some of these teams.
