In what is becoming an annual tradition, the Amazing Race won an Emmy for Outstanding Reality-competition program. This marks the fifth year in a row that the show has won this Emmy.
The Amazing Race came out ahead of Dancing with the Stars, Project Runway, Top Chef, and American Idol. Even if CBS wants to put it on the backburner and relegate it to midseason status, it’s still the subject of critical acclaim.
“We are so proud to win this again, it’s extraordinary,” said Bertram van Munster, creator and executive producer.
