AXN is the cable channel for all those who are in for adventure, in for action, and in for mystery. AXN is the one-stop channel for people who wants to experience thrill and excitement.

About The Amazing Race:
(American Edition) At each destination, the Teams will compete in a series of tasks, some mental and some physical, before learning their next destination. Restricted plane travel and strict budgets will add to the pressure, as Teams are forced to rely on wit and ingenuity, perhaps sleeping on park benches or in bus stations and traveling on buses, trains, boats, taxis, bicycles, even camels. Teams farthest behind will be eliminated as the race progresses, and the first Team to arrive at the final destination wins US$1 million!
(Asian Edition) This Asian adaptation of the four time Emmy Award winning - reality competition series, The Amazing Race, will see ten teams of two from Asia going head to head with mental, physical and emotional obstacles all over the world. No one knows where they will be headed next or what challenges they have to face. From models to lovers, brothers to best friends, expect an intense no holds barred scramble to the finishing tarmac, where a prize money of US$100,000 awaits the winning team. The Amazing Race Asia promises to be a highly entertaining program not to be missed!
Why JR Loves This Show?
This show is actually my All-time Favorite Reality Show. Its Asian edition is probably the best show made by the cable TV network. What makes me love this show is how the teams deal with the different tasks that are prepared by the show's crew. Sometimes this tasks will push the teams to their very limit leading to them showing some emotional and physical distress which might then lead to them giving up. Its different destinations also make me like this show. These destinations makes me learn more about a particular country as well as remove my individual beliefs regarding those countries they have visited. I wish that one day, I can also be a part of The Amazing Race competition... not for the prize money but for the experience.
