I first watched this in my high school psychology class and it was crazy good! Everyone has a specific relationship and seeing them bond together and set aside their differences to get to the lead, going to different parts of the world, including a beach in Thailand that no one really knows about - makes this an amazing race. Its not only about winning, its about getting along and doing it together as a team. You can see Frank & Margarita - the separated parents - fight to give their daughter tuition money. And from the beginning I hated Joe and Bill/"Team Guido" (affectionately also known as "Bert and Ernie" by Kevin & Drew). They went so far as to even push Nancy in an airport terminal and I hated it when they beat Kevin & Drew in China to make the top 3. Terrible. But they don't win anyway so who cares! You will get every dollar's worth for this DVD for someone who loves to travel and see the world on a small budget!Read full review
CBS's reality show The Amazing Race is a true gem, a fabulous example of the genre that has revolutionized the entertainment world these past few years. It's colorful, exciting and dramatic. And it's yours for less than the sticker price when you find a pre-owned copy in good condition. In fact it's an even better value than most used products because the EXPERIENCE of Amazing Race never gets old. In this first season you'll relive the challenge of producing the ultimate game show on the world's largest set through great special features, and you'll notice a slower, more reflective pace which (while still edge-of-your-seat exciting) showcases the places and people like no other season has managed since. The music's less distracting, Phil's exxplanations of rules and challenges are clearer and there aren't yet any cliches because it's all fresh and new. Indeed, with this first season you're really watching TWO Amazing Races, the first for a million dollars run by the contestants you see, and the second an all-out scramble for the hearts and minds of millions of viewers, run by producers and creators. Knowing as we now do how handily they won this second race, it's great to go back and relive the excitement, the challenge, the raw ADVENTURE that is The Amazing Race. Grab it NOW. I can't think of a better use for any travel lover's entertainment budget.Read full review
