If anything, they have a go at do everything to avoid that.

I think it is a distinguishing factor of the show.

Ours is much more of a feel-good show in that sense.

They’re in a studio or they’re in a set location.

They can’t change their wheres.

We are never in the same place.

The Amazing Racepremieres March 13 on CBS.
