"That show, 'The Amazing Race?' Is that show about white people?"
- Zach Galifianakis

Ever since "Rock Star: INXS" wrapped up its competition last September, my life has been reality show free. That drought will finally end Tuesday night with the return of CBS's "The Amazing Race."

I skipped the last edition of the show, the dreaded "Family" version, because I had little desire to watch parents and children play a watered down version of the game. Thankfully Tuesday will mark a return to normalcy for "Race," with teams once again consisting of just two members.

More importantly, all of the contestants will be adults. Part of me really hopes there are no assholes or religious zealots this time around, but deep down I know that those crazy contestants probably enhance my emotional involvement with the show. After all, if everyone was nice, I wouldn't care as much who won and who lost. But if there have to be jerks, I'd rather they be medium-sized jerks like Colin and Christy rather than over-sized jerks like Jonathan and Victoria.

CBS already has the website up for the new season, including team bios. Rest assured, I'll be posting regularly throughout the show's run.
