Heather Havrilesky Salon.com Inevitably, after so much shared struggle and heartbreak, we find that we can hardly remember a single detail from our time with these strangers Jul 8, 2019 Full Review Dalton Ross Entertainment Weekly Look, watching parents and children argue is just plain depressing, and if I want to see goofy kids in allegedly cute and hilarious situations, I'll turn on America's Funniest Home Videos, thank you very much. Mar 27, 2019 Full Review Robert Bianco USA Today Never have I been happier to see a set of families leave the country. Mar 27, 2019 Full Review Andy Dehnart MSNBC This "Family Edition" of Amazing Race is by far my least favorite... But now, I'm completely caught up in it -- only because I'm so desperately hoping the Weavers will be eliminated. It's like having a whole family of J.R. Ewings to root against.

Robbie M The Amazing Race is supposed to be a fun adventure, but Season 8, the family edition, has a terrible route, unfair twist, and is overall draining to watch. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/02/22 Full Review Read all reviews
