For those of you going through race-around-the-world withdrawal, last night Game Show Network began airing reruns of The Amazing Race. Starting at season one, they intend to run through all the episodes in order, with one episode every night at 9 p.m. ET, repeated at midnight (link via reality blurred). I’ll probably try and tune in for the first couple of seasons (insofar as it doesn’t conflict with other shows I’m TiVo-ing, of course), since I didn’t get on the Amazing Race bandwagon until season three… ah, coincidentally back in the day when I used to read Television without Pity religiously. I need to get back on that bandwagon too.
[Addendum: I just looked it up on TiVo. It turns out the episodes do not have unique titles or descriptions in the guide, so recording it may involve some customization, lest a plain Season Pass record each episode twice.]

Guess we could just do a manual record at midnight, but don’t want to screw w/ my TAR ARWL, so have been manually deleting the 9pms off the To Do list. Ugh! Also, not liking this every night deal…it is going to fill up TiVo way too quickly! Just watched the opening of the first episode… my memory is REALLY bad, I didn’t remember over 1/2 the teams from Season 1.
I saw that! Yes, annoying that they don’t provide more detail, but according to TiVo that is the fault of the net. I would like to watch the season with the gay couple that I saw on a recent gay cruise, who did a little presentation on the show and how they creatively edit things to create more drama. The host — Phil — is still hot though.
