The Amazing Race (2001)TV series

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to team up with someone you’ve known for at least three years (a partner, friend, coworker, ex, sibling, etc.) and embark upon a harrowing, exhausting, seemingly impossible worldwide adventure. All you have to do is follow the clues set forth by The Amazing Race team and navigate gnarly physical and mental challenges in foreign locales to claw your way to victory and be the final team standing after. Sound good? Even if you’re not up for joining the competition yourself, if you like a little adrenaline pumping from the safety of your couch, we recommend watching the brave souls battling it out on this popular and informative reality show.
