Singapore, 22 October 2007 - Get ready for some hot Thursday nights in... In front of the telly that is! Because The Amazing Race Asia 2 debuts on action and adventure channel, AXN on Thursday, 22 November 2007, 9pm (Sin/ Mal/Phil/Thai), 10pm (HK), 8pm (JKT). The producers of the show are promising a lot of heated action as 10 new teams race around the world in the brand new season.
AXN's biggest original production finally returns on TV screens. But this time, look out for even spicier drama. Allan Wu, host of The Amazing Race Asia even reveals that a fight almost broke out between him and a contestant.
"There's more driving in new environments, long-haul flights to catch, and even more challenging tasks in the new race. Tempers flared not only with me but with other contestants as well," adds Allan.
This explosive behavior is only the tip of the iceberg - viewers will get to see teams go head to head to beat the elimination mat from episode 1 to the finish line. These new contestants are not afraid to show their claws, especially when the bottom line is the US$100,000 cash prize!
The 10 teams - comprising 2 each from Hong Kong, Philippines and Malaysia, and 1 each from Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and Japan, will be thrown curveballs from the get-go. And this new race will see teams cover over 50,000km across 4 continents in just 24 days, as compared to 36,000km in 2 continents last season.
In addition, for the first time in The Amazing Race history, a hearing-impaired contestant Adrian Yap, 27, joins the race. He and teammate from Singapore also competes against the first Japanese team on the show. They will definitely provide many entertaining moments as with the other pairs who are TV hosts, childhood buddies, an ex-US Navy Chief and his housewife, and believe it or not, feuding roommates!
Be sure to tune in to AXN on 22 November @ 9pm (Sin, Mal, Phil, Thai), 10pm (HK), 8pm (JKT) for your Amazing Race fix!
