NEWS
The Amazing Race 15 is the upcoming fifteenth installment of the reality television show The Amazing Race. Applications were originally due by February 24, 2009, but were later extended. As of April 4, 2009, applications were still being accepted. Semi-finalist interviews were to be held sometime between March 20 and March 29, 2009. Following this, finalists would have been invited to Los Angeles sometime between April 23 and April 30, 2009 for final interviews with the producers. From there, about 11 teams will be selected to be contestants in the show, which is scheduled to film in Summer 2009. However, casting calls are still being held as host Phil Keoghan, currently cycling across the United States during the month of April and early May 2009 to support the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, continues to make stops to help with these casting calls.

This season will be the first season in which the old route markers on the clues will be replaced by the newer route markers since they were introduced on the television broadcast of Season 14. CBS will be ordering airing the cycle during the start of the 2009-2010 television season.The announcement is the first such television series announcement to be made by a broadcaster on Twitter, following Keoghan's own initial announcement of the renewal via Twitter.

Season Run: The fifteenth cycle will be shown during the fall 2009 television season, starting on Sunday, September 27, 2009, which will be a 2 hour premiere.

I'm going to be honest here and say this Season has been one of the worst. The team selection was bad and just boring. After Maria & Tiffany quit I stopped watching. 2 Teams QUITTING?
CBS this has been a very mediocre Season.
3.5/10
Hopefully TAR 16 will be better.
