Amazing Race 24 All Star Cast Release

Again, apologies on the delay of the Survivor cast scrutiny...I promise I'll get to it soon! Today, CBS announced the cast for Amazing Race 24, which is all stars. There's nothing new really; if you wanted to know the cast, you could have googled it for the past month or two.

Of note, though, is that CBS said that their twist is that "one team will not make it to the start line." However, this is most likely going to be where the Mark/Mallory team is formed, which I mentioned in my earlier analysis.

A twitter user named Miss Cleo, who initially posted a spoiled cast list last year, had this to say today about the so-called twist.

“It’s all just a stunt. You can expect to LOL at the spectacle they’re going to make during the premiere about the SHOCKING news: OMG BOPPER’S SICK & HAD TO PULL OUT! OH NOEZ! WHAT DO WE DO? … I predicted a while ago that CBS would tease this heavily in the promos leading up to the premiere, and it’s looking like I’m right based on the press release today (‘one team doesn’t even make it to the starting line!’). Please.”

So no big deal there. However, you can now watch the cast videos and read the racers' bios on the CBS website, which is always fun. Also, I expect our resident Amazing Race expert Ethan will want to discuss this in more detail later this week. Maybe he can provide some insight on the teams that I don't know.
