THE AMAZING RACE sends 11 teams on a trek around the world. Each team
is comprised of two people who have a pre-existing relationship with
one another. At every destination, each team competes in a series of
challenges — some mental and some physical — and when the tasks have
been completed, they learn their next destination. Teams who are
farthest behind will gradually be eliminated as the contest progresses,
with the first team to arrive at the final destination winning at
least $1 million.
Jerry Bruckheimer, Bertram van Munster, Jonathan Littman, Elise
Doganieri, Mark Vertullo and Phil Keoghan are the executive producers
for Jerry Bruckheimer Television and Worldrace Productions in
association with ABC Studios and Amazing Race Productions. THE AMAZING
RACE was created by Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri.
