The Amazing Race Season 38: MAJOR CHANGE on Cast and Release Window


CBS’ The Amazing Race just wrapped up season 37, and fans already want to know more about The Amazing Race season 38, especially about the surprise twist in the casting. The Amazing Race has aired since 2001, with groups of teams racing around the world, following clues that will eventually lead them to the show’s $1 million grand prize. Contestants must overcome eliminations, twists, and challenges around every corner, and work as a team to solve clues to make it to the end.
The Amazing Race season 37 wrapped up on May 15, with the winners being Carson McCalley and Jack Dodge, best friends who share a love of gaming, which clearly paid off for them on their Amazing Race adventure. Jack and Carson beat out brother and sister team, Han Nguyen and Holden Nguyen, and married couples, Jonathan Towns and Ana Towns, and Alyssa Borden and Josiah Borden. Carson and Jack’s gameplay was consistent throughout, and they managed to outwit the rest of the players to come out as winners in the end.

The Amazing Race Has Been Renewed For Another Season
CBS officially announced another season of The Amazing Race in February, and posted the announcement to Instagram in March. According to reports, season 38 will feature some familiar faces and has already been filmed. Parade reported that airing two seasons in one year is a rare occurrence, as it’s only the second time in the last 10 years that the network has done so.
Longtime host Phil Keoghan is set to return.
Dutch media outlets began reporting in March that The Amazing Race had been spotted filming in Hoorn, Netherlands. From there, the teams were spotted in the Czech Republic, Italy, Croatia, and Romania. Filming reportedly ended in April, which means The Amazing Race season 38 is a done deal. Hardcore fans of the series love to follow the show’s filming in real time, with eagle-eyed internet sleuths sharing tidbits that help them piece together their whereabouts.

The Amazing Race Season 38 Will Premiere In Fall 2025

Since filming is already wrapped, the next season will air in the fall of 2025 on CBS. CBS made the premiere announcement at the annual upfronts, saying the show would air after Survivor on Wednesdays. There is no word on an exact premiere date, but a season of Survivor typically premieres in September, so it would make sense for The Amazing Race season 38 to follow suit.

CBS is a juggernaut of reality competition shows, including The Amazing Race, Survivor, and Big Brother.

Monsters & Critics revealed the cast includes Big Brother season 26’s Angela Murray and her daughter, Chelsea Baham and her father, Rubina Bernabe and her sister, and Tucker Des Lauriers and his brother. From Big Brother season 25, there’s Izzy Gleicher and her fiancé, and Jag Bains and his brother.

From Big Brother season 24, Matt Turner and his wife will compete, as will Joseph Abdin and his brother. Hannah Chaddha from Big Brother season 23 and her sister will compete, as will Big Brother season 21’s Kat Dunn and her boyfriend. Enzo Palumbo from Big Brother seasons 12 and 22 will compete with his brother, and Big Brother season 18’s Natalie Negrotti and her sister will also join. Big Brother season 23’s Kyland Young will compete with Big Brother season 24’s Taylor Hale, as the two are rumored to be dating.
