Phil Keoghan, host of ‘The Amazing Race’, says season 32 is ‘on the run’ and talks about the long-term display amid the coronavirus pandemic

The global is waiting for you . . . or rather. The Amazing Race, however, is scheduled for season 32 after filming ended almost two years ago.

Host Phil Keoghan acknowledges that fans are eager for the new season to air, especially in the quarantine of the coronavirus pandemic.

“Our enthusiasts are amazing enthusiasts. They’ve been so patient and it’s been hard to know why,” he told Us Weekly exclusively about the previous release date this year. “I have to tell the enthusiasts: thank you for your patience. “

“It’s an unprecedented moment and if the overall had been another, there would be another Amazing Race in the box,” Phil adds. “But it’s another global we live in. “

Filming for season 33 stopped before this year with the success of COVID-19, however, the New Zealander assures enthusiasts that the network plans to continue where it left off, it’s just a matter of when.

“We’ll go back and finish the season as soon as we can,” he said. “Our number one purpose for all of us is to make sure other people are and we pride ourselves on supporting others. I make that promise now with the global as it is».

“Don’t worry, we’re back,” Phil adds, “and we hope to be even better than before. Every season we seek to improve, to pass a step.

As for race’s long term amid the existing pandemic, he tells us, “It will be different, but who knows. The world is becoming so fast, so fast. We just don’t know what’s going on in the corner. “

Season 32 of The Amazing Race begins on CBS on Wednesday, October 14 at 9 p. m. Find out what Phil had to share with us below!

Us Weekly: Season 32, finally!

Phil Keoghan: Someone was asking me about it and saying, “You must have celebrated. “But he came here in the middle of the night. We were flying somewhere over the Andes. I think we were going to Manaus [in Brazil] or somewhere in the middle of the Amazon. There was no exaggeration. There was no champagne. There were no fireworks. The party was lost in the sound of jet engines as we flew at night. It’s amazing. It’s like going to the moon and coming back twice.

We: What do you expect from the fans?Are we somewhere for the first time?

PK: We leave to move to a new and another place, as soon as we leave the door we can move to Trinidad and Tobapass, where we have never been before. I grew up in the Caribbean, so I’m a big fan of the Caribbean. And then we got to Kazakhstan and some really attractive places. One of the things the screen really takes pride in is moving to places the audience hasn’t seen. I say at the beginning of the exhibition “The world is waiting for you. “At the moment, it doesn’t really wait for anyone, however, we hope that other people will enjoy escaping this proxy blockage thanks to our cast members who can travel freely at a time when we can simply travel freely around the world.

We: Interacting with locals is a big part of the show. Are there any concerns I need to replace due to COVID?

PK: Creo que durante el tiempo que estuviéramos allí posiblemente no habría esas restricciones. We can’t have restrictions. We’ll have to be able to move freely. The nature of the show is that it is about the inhabitants. This is where we are. It’s about the freedom to move. I just can’t see a global world, yet we can’t communicate with people, or get past here or there. We are going to get to the end of everything and this screen is not a COVID compatible studio screen in the Valley. This is a screen where level and study are literally the global. The global is our study, which is part of what makes it complicated, but also part of what makes it special. We’re not in the same position every time. We’ll have to have this freedom. And that’s why some series were able to keep working and others couldn’t. Ours is one where it’s too complicated to make those commitments.

Us: In terms of casting, Race has selected other people from all walks of life, while other demonstrations of truth seem to struggle with it.

PK: I think it’s incredibly important, especially right now. If you look at our cast this season, I think we show the crucible that america is. We’re going through a very complicated time in the country right now. a lot of department and department. CBS has made a concerted effort to make other people noticed on television. . . Many other people assume that they see a mirrored image of themselves on television. And when someone says something like that, it’s to stop you dry. You put yours in his place and you see it from his point of view. So you realize you do, how do you feel?

So, even though we have this department in our country, I think at the end of the day, I’m an immigrant and the explanation for why I got here was that America has meant progress and acceptance for me, and that was the position where you might do things. I think the country has lost the notion of what makes it wonderful, and what makes it wonderful is diversity, an exhibition like Amazing Race, where we can show other people of all shades of sunshine, from the lightest to the darkest and everything else. , other people from other backgrounds, other people who vote for other portions, do anything in combination and united, I think it is very powerful.

Us: Yes, in addition to watching other cultures represented on TELEVISION through the places you visit.

PK: In any case, this season 32 is actually an escape story. We’ve all been locked up. We take a look out the window at a world we have to go back to, and maybe a world that appreciates more when we do. Sometimes, only when you get rid of him do you really appreciate what you had. about the opportunities they may be offering us. There are two others for me. There are those who with their eyes are wide open, open to new concepts and tactics of doing things, new foods, new experiences. And they need to be informed and immersed. And there’s the other ler that compares what you find to what you know and what you think is “normal. “These other people, I think, limit their experience. For me, what we’ve done with Amazing Race over the years is open our eyes to other people so they can settle for the difference.

Us: There are other rules of functionality this season, what can you say about it?

PK: I’m not willing to reveal too much how it works, but to reposition it a little bit, to force other people to think a little differently. But it’s appealing to me, the series is so long, many other people have re-seen the old seasons. Many other people who were not born [when the series premiered in 2001] have become fan of the series. And what I hear is that other people love the screen for its central elements. These groups of two globals, following clues, going from one position to another. I get a lot of questions over the years: “What’s new and what?What’s the twist? But at the end of the day, what I’ve heard, the comments I get, is that we can shoot and do whatever we need for the exhibition, but at the end of the day, groups of two are in the world, following clues, going to new and other places on the whole and experiencing other things, that’s the twist. This is the difference. This is what sets it apart from other screens.

The fact that those seasons have lasted so long is because, deep down, the twist of The Amazing Race is what makes it so exciting to watch. So yes, there are two other things here and there that have replaced, but it has a great limited effect compared to what it is like to move to Kazakhstan. We’ve never been there. It’s the twist. Or move somewhere in the Amazon where we’ve never been before. To revel in something, it’s twisting. All this we have already incorporated, at the basic level, that other systems cannot do, have to move to the same study. They can replace other people, but at the end of the day, they’re just other people in the same area. We have other people who are in another area doing other things.

Us: Is there anything else you can joke about the season?

PK: Team dynamics only. We have a very smart combination of equipment. Like all members of our Amazing Race family, they are all very, very close. This dynamic between not only each user of a couple, but also the pairs between them, is AttractiveArray. This photo of This Year’s Cast . . . Looks like a lot of disorders [laughs]. A lot of potential. Really attractive dynamics with brother and sister, newlyweds, smart friends, partners, father and son. I guarantee there’s a smart dynamic from the start.
