Without much fanfare, in fact I just got a blip about it last night on tv, the Amazing Race starts tonite on CBS - you'll have to check your local listings to see what time.

Enjoy...

It is new to NBC....Its already available on DVD. I'm looking forward to watching it. From a quick google: "Published on Apr 15, 2011 10:36AM 0 Comments Television's best family series, Friday Night Lights (7 p.m., NBC/Ch. 5), returns to broadcast television for its fifth and final season. And the East Dillon Lions are making some noise. Let's just say that they aren't going to go 2-8 again this season. This 13-episode season of "FNL" has already aired on DirecTV, and it's already out on DVD. (That has to be a first for a show on a broadcast network.) If you haven't seen it, however, this is must-see TV. It continues to portray the most realistic family on TV. That doesn't mean they're perfect - Julie (Amy Teegarden) gets herself in waaaay over her head with some really stupid behavior when she goes off to college. And the marriage of Coach Eric Taylor (Kyle Chandler) and Tammy (Connie Britton) looks like real life. Because it's not perfect, either. But they're amazing people who not only clearly love each other but love what they do and the kids they work with. For those of you who haven't seen Season 5 yet, I don't want to give too much away. Except to assure you that, when the final episode airs, it won't leave you hanging. It will give you closure. And it just might make you cry. " Here is a link that might be useful: FNL

I've never watched it before but this season one of the contestants is from my town- Rachel Johnston. She was a couple of years behind my DD in high school. So I'll have to tune in and root for the home town girl.

Not late in Canada! We watch it on CTV and it's always on time. We gave up watching it on CBS because it was always running late.

Wish I could see it but we don't get the local channels here unless we put up a second dish, and the only thing I would probably watch is the Amazing Race. A couple of years ago the Travel Channel carried it, a week behind but that was fine with me.

Just a note - it comes on at 8:30pm. tonight and runs until 10:30pm. I think. There is a football game before Sixty Minutes, SM suppose to come on at 7:30pm.

It was so good. I just love that show. I was surprised at who left. Got a kick out of the "dumb" couple. They admitted it..lol...Boy, that woman got whacked good by the watermelon. It's a wonder she didn't have a concussion.

There's always a "dumb" couple on the show isn't there? I don't think they will last long. And the guys who finished last.....why oh why didn't they stop and ask for directions sooner??? I never understand driving aimlessly around when you could just ask for directions, especially in an English speaking country!

Never heard of Stonehenge..... that's just sad. Too busy getting tattooed to crack a book, I suppose. What country are you in? London! Geesh. Way to look REALLY ignorant, people.

I was sorry to see those 2 leave, I think they would have been fun and nice to see and get to know better, but when I saw that little boat they had to ride in, I was sure they would sink. They did a lot better in that than most, though! At least they knew it WAS a boat! lol

When that woman got hit with the watermelon in slow motion, it really looked like her head exploded. Yikes! And to be able to laugh about it later? Just amazing.... I respect that a lot more than a sulky cry-baby (like I would have been!) lol

Last night's episode was good, more like The Amazing Race of old. I hope it continues like that.

I agree it was good and that poor girl, I wonder if she's got a bruised face the next day!
Those dim bulbs were hilarious, especially when they were looking for the boat. I can't imagine how they are going to get through the next leg which is Ghana...
I agree the pair who got eliminated sealed their own fate by not asking for directions.
It was good, looking forward to the next episode already...

Oooo...it was a good one! I liked the team that was elimated but you are all right...they did it to themselves. They looked like nice guys and smart.

I really, really like the two Drs'. I think they will be a good team...smart, fast and level headed.

That watermelon really hit hard! What a surprise! That was a good challange. I didn't know what to think of those two but they did a good job and were able to laugh at themselves. Not bad.

The dumb team...with all the ink...Oh My! They could not figure out about the flag, the boat or the country. They survived this leg but not by much.

The Mother/Daughter team will be interesting to watch. What a story they brought to the show. Very different, that's for sure.

I also like the Father/Son team. They will be fun to watch. They seem to work well together.

So, we are off on another adventure around the world! Did I hear it correctly...8 elimation legs and 12 legs in all? So will the final be leg 12 or 13?

who is wondering how many pair of undies they pack for such a trip.

I do wish they would race in Europe more. I think I heard the next destination is Ghana.
