The Amazing Race 32 is the thirty-second installment of the American reality television show The Amazing Race. It features eleven teams of two in a race around the world for a US$1 million grand prize. The season premiered on October 14, 2020, following Big Brother: All-Stars.[3][4][5]
Production and filming
Development
During the airing of Season 30 in January 2018, Phil Keoghan suggested that the show could return to filming two seasons a year after two years of only filming one.[6] After Season 31 completed filming in July 2018, The Amazing Race 32 began on November 10, 2018 with filming of first leg reported on the island of Tobago, marking the first time The Amazing Race visited Trinidad and Tobago. Teams were spotted fishing in the Nylon Pool, played the steelpan at Pigeon Point, and participated in goat racing at the Buccoo Integrated Facility.[1] The season concluded filming on December 3, 2018 in New Orleans, Louisiana,[2] which had previously only hosted a Pit Stop during the Family Edition back in 2005.[7] According to Phil Keoghan, this season was the most physically demanding to film since The Amazing Race 3.[8] The show also reached a milestone of traveling one million cumulative miles during this season.[9]
CBS announced on May 15, 2019, while Season 31 was airing, that the season would be broadcast in the mid-2019–20 television season.[10] In January 2020, Amazing Race co-creators and executive producers Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri believed that the season would air within six months.[11] On April 13, 2020, CBS originally announced that the season was to premiere with a two-hour special on May 20, 2020, taking over the Wednesday slot of Survivor: Winners at War. Following this, the show would have returned to the standard one-hour episode format.[12] However, on April 29, 2020, CBS announced it was postponing the premiere until later in 2020, and the freshman game show Game On! would be taking show's former scheduled slot.[13] The postponement was designed in case the 2020–21 television season was delayed as television production was suspended following the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing pre-filmed Amazing Race to replace shows whose production has not begun.[14] This includes Survivor, which was unable to film its 41st season in time for the fall broadcast due to complications filming during the pandemic, causing CBS to subsequently schedule The Amazing Race 32 in Survivor's planned slot on Wednesdays at 8:00 p.m. as its replacement.[15] At twenty-two months, The Amazing Race 32 has the longest gap between its filming completion and its premiere (for comparison, Season 31 premiered 10 months after its filming in June and July 2018).[16] Outside of a message from Keoghan at the start of the first episode describing the timing of filming of this season relative to the COVID-19 pandemic, the season made no other changes or mention of the pandemic, as Keoghan explained they want to keep the show evergreen.[17]
This season was the first to eliminate the last place team during a no-rest leg.[18] It also saw the first appearance of the Yield since the first All-Stars edition back in 2007, making this the first American season to feature both the Yield and the U-Turn (the U-Turn initially replaced the Yield on The Amazing Race 12 while other versions of The Amazing Race such as the Asian and the Australian versions already had both the Yield and the U-Turn in place).[19][20] The mechanics of the Yield were changed in that teams had to find a 10-minute or 20-minute hourglass during Leg 2 that they could use later in the season to Yield another team.[21] The eighth leg was a mega leg, which featured two Detours and two Roadblocks over the course of one leg, similar to the double-length leg last seen on The Amazing Race 14.[22] Leg 10 introduced a city sprint, where teams did not face any Detours, Roadblocks, or additional obstacles but rather a series of Route Info tasks that they had to complete as fast as possible.[23][24] This is the first season in Amazing Race which each leg featured a different country. This season for the first time since Season 14 to only featured 11 legs during the race, and also since Season 19 which not featured the Fast Forward.
Casting
Casting finals occurred during the end of July 2018 for filming set to occur around November 2018.[25]
Unlike five of the past six seasons, which had a particular casting themes involving dating and "blind date" couples, social media personalities, strangers, 'champions' of their specific fields, and former reality show contestants, host Phil Keoghan referred to this season as taking a "back to basics" approach in an interview with Gold Derby with the cast and the show going back to core elements.[26][27]
This cast includes former Carolina Panthers players DeAngelo Williams and Gary Barnidge, Olympic hurdlers Kellie Wells-Brinkley and LaVonne Idlette, professional volleyball player Riley McKibbin,[28] and college basketball coach Jerry Eaves.[29]
