Production

Development and filming

The UCLA Bruin Marching Band performed at the starting line for this "All-Stars" edition of The Amazing Race.

Filming for the season began on November 16, 2013, at Cougar Stadium at the College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, California, with the returning teams spotted at Los Angeles International Airport later in the day.[3] Filming was initially set to begin at the Rose Bowl, but was changed to Cougar Stadium due to "issues of availability to use the Rose Bowl."[4] This season's course traveled 23,000 miles (37,000 km), across three continents and nine countries,[5] including a first-time visit to Wales.[6][7]

Illusionist David Copperfield appeared in the first Roadblock during the finale in Las Vegas.[8]

Casting

In casting the teams for this season, host Phil Keoghan said that they sought to bring back teams that fans love as well as teams that spark the biggest fan reactions.[9] One month prior to the start of filming, while the casting process was still ongoing, seven out of the eleven teams that appeared on this season were leaked through Twitter.[10] Returning teams were ultimately selected from previous teams going as far back as season 14, including three teams competing for a third time.[6]

  • Amani & Marcus from season 19 were contacted, but declined the invitation due to work commitments.[11]
  • Art & J.J. from season 20 were originally selected, but were cut a few days before filming.[12] They would later participate in season 31.[13]
  • Tim & Marie from season 23 were originally selected, but declined the invitation.[14]

Cast

Jennifer Wayne

Mark Jackson was originally set to compete with his original partner, Bopper Minton, but Bopper began showing signs of pancreatitis before arriving in Los Angeles for filming and was deemed unfit to compete by the production's medical team.[15] As a last-minute replacement, Mallory Ervin flew in from Nashville to compete as Mark's teammate.[16] This marked the first time that a team without a pre-existing relationship competed on The Amazing Race.

Reception

Critical response

The Amazing Race 24 received mostly negative reviews. The casting choices for this season were largely maligned with Andy Dehnart of reality blurred saying that "I couldn’t believe that these people were favorites, and collective reaction seemed to validate that."[32] Daniel Fienberg of HitFix called this season horrible and a joke but acknowledged that he "didn't think that was an all-time bad 'Amazing Race' season. It had some good Legs and some good moments and it had a deserving winner."[33] Reece Forward of Screen Rant wrote that this season had "a sloppy all stars cast with lackluster tasks."[34] In 2016, this season was ranked 26th out of the first 27 seasons by the Rob Has a Podcast Amazing Race correspondents.[35] Conversely, Richard Gorelick, Chris Waldmann, and Melissa Wilson of The Baltimore Sun wrote "All in all, it was a pretty good season, with some impressively staged tasks."[36] In 2022, Rhenn Taguiam of Game Rant ranked this season as the third-best season.[37]
