CBS has announced that The Amazing Race will return with its 12th season on Sunday, November 4th at 8:00pm ET/PT.

The winner of five consecutive Emmy awards will replace just cancelled Viva Laughlin. 

In a CBS press release, executive producer Bertram van Munster expressed his excitement of this new season:  “If there ever was a season that I consider one of the best, it’s this one.  It’s insanely funny, fast-paced and dramatic all at once. Teams are in hot pursuit of one another at every location and its reality television at its nail-biting best.”

This season, teams will travel approximately 50,000 miles, covering five new countries.

The Amazing Race 12 will air on Sundays at 8:00pm ET/PT where it aired all of last season.

Jerry Bruckheimer, Bertram van Munster, Jonathan Littman and Hayma Screech Washington are the executive producers for Bruckheimer Television and Earthview Inc. in association with ABC Television Studio and Amazing Race Productions. The Amazing Race was created by Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri. Phil Keoghan returns as host.
