I know we all figured this was coming but it still stinks. From Entertainment Weekly: The network is pulling Survivor from its fall slate as the coronavirus pandemic continues to impede production on the long-running competition series. The show's producers "are continuing to work with officials in Fiji on the appropriate time to start production," CBS said in a statement. Survivor postponed production on its next season in March due to the initial outbreak of COVID-19. Season 41 had been scheduled to begin shooting March 24, with season 42 scheduled to commence production in May. Both seasons are now delayed and seem unlikely to start production in the immediate future with COVID-19 cases soaring in the U.S. However, we will finally get to see The Amazing Race race again. The show completed filming on its upcoming 32nd season well before the pandemic hit, will take Survivor's perennial timeslot of Wednesday at 8 p.m. link

I read that amazing race has been sitting on a shelf for a long time. It was going to sit this past spring but cbs realized they needed it for the fall.

I'm so glad I'll get Amazing Race again soon.
It very much has changed from its core as a buddy travelogue and is now a showcase of CBS's reality show talent from other series. Which is a total bummer, but I still watch it religiously.

Can you imagine winning the Amazing Race over a year ago and not being able to tell anyone while they decide when to air it?
