Posted By MReid: So apparently the next season of the Amazing Race will feature former players from BIG BROTHER. I wish this show would go back to its normal format and just cast normal people I'm not sure why they have felt the need to cast reality stars lately, but with Jessica and Cody winning last season, it seems that this motivated them to cast all BIG BROTHER players. Here is the TMZ article 'The Amazing Race' to Film All 'Big Brother' Edition After Cody and Jessica's Win | TMZ.com |

since mine is the last post I will just copy it over here:
apparently, the person that wrote the US weekly article about this commented on Facebook that all of these teams aren't official- these are the BB ones that have been contacted. She said they have also contacted more Survivor contestants and that the cast has not been finalized.
Lots of cross pollination. There is rumored to be a former TAR contestant on the next season of Survivor too. But if Caleb makes it on he will be the first to be on all 3 CBS reality shows

I do not really want any more former BB players on TAR. Except for Janelle. She can come on anytime. And Kaysar. Actually, I would probably take their compadres James and Howie, too. Otherwise, no. I haven’t watched Survivor in years so I most likely wouldn’t know any players from there. But I would rather have new blood.

It also says Rachel Reilly and Caleb Reynolds are a team. How odd.

Rachel and Caleb? That makes zero sense. I can see them foisting Josh and Paul on us again, though.  I just want Britney and Janelle, that's the only team that would get me excited about watching. |

Caleb and Tai? I love that idea.
Not to thrilled that Frank's name was thrown in there, though.

Tmz article also mentioned James and Corey, I can't see them winning it. Corey needs meds and there were a few times when BB was challenging for him. I guess we will see, I would be happy if they surprised me and won!  |

No matter the partner we still have to watch Rachel race again. I wonder how many times we will hear of teams only to have them change as race time approaches.

I don't think either Josh or Paul have the stamina to compete on AR..... but, "IF" their only competitors are former BB then maybe.  Anyway, I will not be rooting for them. I am hoping that this will not be a BB exclusive edition, I want some NEW people (most new people)! That is probably who I will be rooting for, complete strangers!  |

I simply can't watch Paul on TV, his personality is too annoying to me. I can't.

 So according to TMZ, Paul, Josh, Corey, James and Caleb are all out! A sudden decision to drop them right before the race started.

Yeah they went on to say that AR has decided to take a new turn with this season. www.tmz.com/2018/06/02/amazing-race-shocking-cuts-big-brother-edition-james-corey-caleb/Die-hard "Big Brother" fans might not be happy about this -- "The Amazing Race" just made some huge last-minute cuts to its upcoming all-BB edition ... including winners and fan favorites. Our 'TAR' sources tell us ... America's Favorite Houseguest on Season 17, James Huling, and Season 18's Corey Brooks will no longer be partnering up on 'TAR' because CBS called them Thursday night to inform them they've been axed. Caleb Reynolds, aka Beast Mode Cowboy, was also told he's no longer wanted for the upcoming season, and perhaps most shockingly ... former enemies turned friends -- Josh Martinez and Paul Abrahamian -- also got dropped from the cast. We're told the news came as a huge surprise to the 'BB' alums because they'd all gone through the interview process and thought they were set ... but production just told them they are moving in a different direction. On the bright side ... we've learned BB14 winner Ian Terry's been added to the cast, Rachel Reilly's still in and will team up with her sister Elissa, and past stars Da'Vonne Rogers and Bridgette Dunning will be a duo.
We reached out to CBS to get some more feedback on their decisions, and were told the network has "a new casting twist for the next edition of The Amazing Race that will be announced shortly." |

so glad Caleb was cut. He's been so full of himself (shocking, I know) about how he keeps getting put on all these TV shows. Plus, he would have been the first to complete the trifecta of BB, Survivor, and TAR so I'm glad that's no longer happening.
But... Da'Vonne & Bridgette? No thanks.

I wish the “new casting twist” was that they were abandoning the BB/Survivor retreads and going for “normal” people. I am sure Paul was dropped because MFW said he couldn’t watch with Paul on.   |

I saw a LOT of people saying they wouldn't watch if Paul was on. He really blew it last season and lost a lot of his fans. I'm not sad about them cutting any of that group. I can tolerate Day and Bridgette, but I don't see them doing well. We shall see. |

The site I went to last year for TAR spoilers (that ended up being true) says the same thing, along with pics of some of the teams for proof, so I am seconding Mal's post!

And Josh with him? Eek. 
Anyway, I will not be rooting for them. I am hoping that this will not be a BB exclusive edition, I want some NEW people (most new people)! That is probably who I will be rooting for, complete strangers!
