Sản xuất
Phát triển và quay phim
CBS làm mới phiên bản thứ 17 của The Amazing Race vào ngày 25 tháng 1 năm 2010.[5] Phần được công chiếu vào ngày 26 tháng 9 năm 2010, với một tập đặc biệt dài 90 phút. Chương trình trở lại kéo dài một giờ thông thường vào tuần sau.[6]

Việc quay phim bắt đầu vào ngày 26 tháng 5 năm 2010, với Vạch xuất phát tại Câu lạc bộ Du thuyền Eastern Point ở Gloucester, Massachusetts,[1] đây là mùa đầu tiên kể từ khi The Amazing Race: Kì Cựu bắt đầu ở một thành phố khác ngoài Los Angeles. Mùa giải kết thúc vào ngày 15 tháng 6 năm 2010,[2] với vạch đích ở Los Angeles, California.
Trước khi phát sóng mùa giải, CBS đã đăng một đoạn video xem trước ngắn từ một tập phim trên Internet, cho thấy Brook & Claire tham gia thử thách phóng dưa hấu bằng súng cao su . Đoạn clip cho thấy Claire bị ném vào mặt một quả dưa hấu sau khi nó phóng không chính xác từ súng cao su, khiến cô bị choáng trong giây lát nhưng không bị thương nặng. Clip lan truyền nhanh và nổi tiếng trên Internet.[8]
Hai yếu tố trò chơi mới đã được giới thiệu trong Phần 17. Đầu tiên là Express Pass, được trao cho đội về đích đầu tiên ở Chặng đầu tiên. Express Pass cho phép đội bỏ qua bất kỳ nhiệm vụ Detour, Roadblock hoặc Route Info nào trước chặng 8. Cặp đôi hẹn hò Jill & Thomas đã giành được Express Pass mà sau đó họ đã sử dụng để bỏ qua Beds Detour ở chặng 4. Một yếu tố mới khác là Double U - Turn, nơi hai đội được phép sử dụng U-Turn trong một chặng đua. Jill & Thomas đã U-Turne Brook & Claire, trong khi Nat & Kat đã U-Turn Chad & Stephanie.
Cast
Đơn đăng ký sẽ đến hạn vào ngày 4 tháng 2 năm 2010. Các cuộc casting bán kết được tổ chức vào tháng 3 năm 2010, và các cuộc casting cuối cùng diễn ra tại Los Angeles vào khoảng tháng 3 năm 2010.[9] From there, eleven teams were selected as contestants and filming took place approximately from May to June 2010.
Dàn casting bao gồm một đội gồm người dẫn chương trình mua sắm tại nhà, nghệ sĩ giải trí trên Internet Kevin Wu - thường được biết đến với cái tên "KevJumba" - và cha của anh ấy là Michael, đạo diễn và biên đạo múa Ron Kellum, Ivy League một ca sĩ capello, và một người mẹ ruột và con gái gần đây đã đoàn tụ sau khi nhận con nuôi hơn hai mươi năm trước.[7] Ngoài ra còn có ba nữ hoàng sắc đẹp tranh tài: Mallory Ervin, người dự thi Hoa hậu Mỹ 2010, nơi cô giành ngôi vị Á hậu 4; Brook Roberts, người từng thi Hoa hậu Mỹ 2005; và Stephanie Smith, người là Hoa hậu Nam Carolina Hoa Kỳ 2009.
Chad Waltrip đã cầu hôn Stephanie Smith trong chặng thứ tám, người đã chấp nhận. Họ đã kết hôn vào ngày 20 tháng 11 năm 2010[10] Họ là đội thứ hai tham gia cuộc đua sau Hayden & Aaron trong The Amazing Race 6 .[11]
Future appearances
Gary & Mallory lại đua một lần nữa trong The Amazing Race: Unfinished business giữa một loạt các đội trở lại từ mùa 12 đến mùa 17.[12] Mallory cũng trở lại trong phiên bản All-Star thứ hai, đua với Mark Jackson từ mùa 20 để thay thế Bopper Minton bị bệnh.[13]
Ngoài The Amazing Race , Mallory đã xuất hiện trên Discovery Channel chương trình thực tế Backyard Oil vào năm 2013.[14] Vào ngày 25 tháng 5 năm 2016, Nat & Kat và Brook & Claire xuất hiện trong chương trình Cuộc đua kỳ thú với chủ đề The Price is Right vào khung giờ vàng đặc biệt.[15]

- Notes
- ^ Ron & Tony were unable to perform the coracle task. Already in last place, production informed them to swim across the moat without a penalty being applied. Ron then performed the Roadblock, which went unaired.[16][17]
- ^ Jill & Thomas used the Express Pass to bypass the Detour in Leg 4.
- ^ While Nick & Vicki came in last in a non-elimination leg, they did not face a Speed Bump in the following leg. Post-show interviews revealed that the Speed Bump was waived, and that everyone's placement in the following leg was equalized at the Detour, in compensation for various production difficulties in the previous leg affecting all of the teams.[18] One of the problems involved the judge at the Classical Music Detour, who made erroneous calls causing teams (Nick & Vicki in particular) to spend more time at the task than they needed to.
- ^a b Chad & Stephanie arrived without their bags, having failed to pay the taxi that drove them to the Pit Stop. They were required to return to their taxi, pay their fare, and retrieve their bags before being allowed to check in. During this time, Michael & Kevin arrived in 6th, but were issued two 30-minute penalties totaling 1-hour (one for hiring a taxi to lead them from Bank Bridge to 1 Vladimirsky Prospekt Tower, and another for taking a taxi from the tower to the Church of the Savior on Blood, both of which were explicitly prohibited by two clues). Chad & Stephanie returned during Michael & Kevin's penalty time, but were issued a 30-minute penalty for taking a taxi to Church of the Savior on Blood when the clue instructed them to travel on foot. At that time they were the only two teams left to check in, and since Michael & Kevin had more than 30 minutes remaining on their penalty time, Chad & Stephanie were allowed to check-in immediately for a 6th-place finish, with their 30-minute penalty time to be assessed at the start of the next leg; Michael & Kevin then fell to last place, which resulted in their elimination.
- ^ Chad & Stephanie left the Pit Start in Saint Petersburg 2 hours after their scheduled departure time because they accidentally overslept. This did not affect their departure placement since they were the last to depart. Later on the same leg, Chad proposed to Stephanie, who accepted. Their relationship title was changed from "Newly Dating" to "Engaged".
- ^ Jill & Thomas initially arrived 1st, but were issued a 30-minute penalty for paying a taxi driver to lead them to the Pit Stop, which was explicitly prohibited in the rules. Chad & Stephanie checked-in during their penalty time, dropping Jill & Thomas to 2nd.
- ^ Nick & Vicki elect to forfeit the Detour because they were too exhausted to continue. They asubsequently checked into the Pit Stop last, but were notified that the leg was a non-elimination leg. The 6-hour penalty they incurred from the Detour would be instead applied at the starting time at Leg 11.
- ^ Brook & Claire initially arrived 1st, but were issued a 30-minute penalty for taking a taxi to their Detour location when the clue instructed teams to travel either on foot or take the subway. Jill & Thomas checked in during their penalty time, dropping Brook & Claire to 2nd.
- ^ By the time Nick & Vicki made it to the Seung-il Bridge in Cheorwon, all the other teams had already checked in at the Pit Stop and it had become too dark for them to safely perform some of the tasks after they fell behind all the other teams due to the penalty issued at the start of the leg (see note 8). During the leg's broadcast, they were only shown performing the Speed Bump (which was not described by Phil, but which apparently involved washing a tank) and then immediately checking in at the Pit Stop for elimination. In interviews after the episode was broadcast, they also revealed that they did the Detour prior.[19][20]

Elimination Station
After elimination, the first five eliminated teams were sequestered at a villa in Cancún, Mexico, to await the finale. CBS posted short videos on its website after each episode aired in the Pacific Time Zone to show the eliminated teams interacting at the villa.
- After Leg 1, Ron & Tony were the first team eliminated and were sent to the villa. They expressed their disappointment at being the first team eliminated but decided to make the most of their situation. After they settled into the villa, they decided to go kayaking, remarking how much easier it was compared to the coracle that they unsuccessfully manned during the season. Afterward, Ron & Tony sat by the pool and tried to predict who would be the first to join them in the villa, and they agreed that it could be anyone.
- After Leg 2, Andie & Jenna were the second team eliminated and were sent to the villa. Ron and Tony welcomed them, glad to finally have another team at the villa to keep them company. Andie and Jenna revealed that they had only recently met, which shocked and moved both Ron and Tony. Andie and Jenna talked at length about their relationship over dinner with Ron & Tony, with Andie revealing the circumstances surrounding Jenna's adoption, and that she has ten other children.
- Leg 3 was a non-elimination leg; hence, no new teams were sent to the villa. Ron & Tony gave Andie & Jenna salsa dancing lessons. Afterward, Andie & Jenna sat by the pool and discussed their relationship.
- After Leg 4, Connor & Jonathan were the third team eliminated and were sent to the villa. Prior to their arrival, the eliminated teams went on a whale shark watching excursion, but after Andie & Jenna became seasick from the rough waves, everyone returned to the villa without seeing any. Later, Connor & Jonathan arrived and shared the song they sang for Phil when they were eliminated. Connor & Jonathan then recounted what happened on their last leg, claiming that the remaining teams were starting to become more cutthroat – news which disappointed Andie & Jenna.
- After Leg 5, Katie & Rachel were the fourth team eliminated and were sent to the villa. Before their arrival, the three eliminated teams went to Kings Bath, where legend holds that the King bathed his children. Afterward, the three teams speculated on who would show up next, wanting another "fun" team to join them in the villa. Katie and Rachel arrived and immediately expressed how angry and disappointed they were to be eliminated, ignoring the other eliminated teams' attempts to console them. This irritated Ron & Tony, who claimed that Katie & Rachel's bitter attitudes were bringing a negative energy to the house. Later, Katie & Rachel admitted that they did enter the villa in a foul mood, but did not regret anything they had said, further bemoaning the fact that they had lost The Amazing Race.
- Leg 6 was a non-elimination leg; hence, no new teams were sent to the villa. The group played a game of water volleyball together in the villa's pool. Afterward, they went to the beach. Katie & Rachel, still bitter about being eliminated, said that they did not want one of the remaining all-female teams to win the season, since they had wanted to be the first all-female winners.
- After Leg 7, Michael & Kevin were the fifth team eliminated and were sent to the villa. After the other teams went snorkeling during the day, Katie & Rachel continued to state that they wanted an all-female team (specifically Brook & Claire) to be eliminated next, as they still were upset that they would not be the first all-female team to win; the two girls were disappointed when they saw Michael & Kevin arrive. Kevin stated his disappointment at their elimination because of an hour-long penalty, while Michael joked that he was glad to finally be done with the stresses of racing. While alone, Kevin continued to say he wished they had not been eliminated so they could have potentially gone to Asia (specifically China where they would have had a linguistic advantage), but Michael told him to just drop the issue. The next day, the eliminated teams visited Punta Sur, where Katie & Rachel spoke with Michael & Kevin about their elimination. Michael told the group that none of them should dwell on losing, and that it should be a learning experience on how to accept even the biggest disappointments in life.
- After Leg 8, Gary & Mallory were the sixth team eliminated. The teams gathered around a phone, waiting for a call to see who was eliminated. Before the call, Jenna stated that she and Rachel had dreams the previous night that either Gary & Mallory or Brook & Claire were eliminated. Katie & Rachel stated, again, that they wanted Brook & Claire to be eliminated. Everyone was surprised when Gary & Mallory called, and told the teams that it was the hardest leg ever, and that they traveled for 16 hours and ended up losing to Nat & Kat with minutes to spare. After the call, the teams continued to comment on Katie & Rachel's obsession that an all-female team should not win The Amazing Race this season. The next day, the eliminated teams went down to the docks to pick up an amberjack and then cook it in the traditional Mayan Tikin Xic style. Once the food was prepared, Andie told everyone that it reminded her of home and being with family, and that the eliminated teams were her substitute family, and Connor joked that she was their substitute birth mom. Later, Ron & Tony spoke with Andie about her relationship with Jenna, and Andie said that whatever Jenna wanted to do from this point on was fine with her.
- After Leg 9, Chad & Stephanie were the seventh team eliminated. Connor & Jonathan spoke about how they felt the fact that they did not attend their graduation at Princeton makes it better that they did not have the transition from college student into adulthood. Later, the eliminated teams went to Alux, an underground restaurant inside a natural cavern, and Jenna had everyone around the table say what they learned from their time on The Amazing Race.
- Leg 10 was a non-elimination leg, but this Elimination Station featured eliminated teams waiting for the phone call with Chad & Stephanie calling the villa after their elimination in Leg 9. They told the other teams how being U-Turned by Nat & Kat had led to their elimination, and then shared the news about their engagement. Ron joked with them by asking if the elimination affected their engagement. The eliminated teams discussed who they wanted in the Top 3, with Nat & Kat and Brook & Claire both mentioned. Jokes were made about Katie & Rachel's dislike that an all-female team might win and that it was not going to be them. Later, all the eliminated teams packed up and prepared for their flight to the final destination city. Michael finally admitted to Kevin that if he were more confident in himself, they might have been able to go farther in the competition. Andie & Jenna were glad that they would be returning home soon, and Jenna expressed how she felt about her relationship with her biological mother. As the eliminated teams left he villa, all of them speculated on what the final destination would be, with guesses ranging from somewhere in Arizona to Seattle to New York City.
- After Leg 11, Nick & Vicki were the eighth and final team eliminated. Elimination Station showed the five eliminated teams arriving at the final destination in Los Angeles, California. After arriving in Los Angeles, the teams checked into a hotel, settled into their rooms, and awaited the phone call from the eighth team eliminated. Ron commented that he and Tony were in their home city; Kevin commented that there would be a lot of interesting things to do in Los Angeles, while also saying to his father what it would be like if they were still racing; and Andie and Jenna discussed how their future relationship would develop. Later, the teams gathered to get the call from the field to learn that Nick & Vicki had been eliminated. Vicki mentioned how she had gotten sick in the previous leg and their penalty had contributed to their loss. Nick said that he believed that Jill & Thomas would win, as they had been coming in first lately, but Vicki said that she thought Nat & Kat would win. The eliminated teams joked that Rachel would physically attack either Brook & Claire or Nat & Kat if they came across the finish line first; although Rachel said she was no longer upset that an all-female team could win this season.
- Leg 12 was the final leg of The Amazing Race 17. Elimination Station showed the Finish Line that took place in Greystone Mansion. Gary & Mallory, Chad & Stephanie, and Nick & Vicki reunited with the other eliminated teams. Andie asked to see Stephanie's engagement ring, and she told the others that they had finished in first place that leg and won a trip to Belize for their honeymoon. Tony led the eliminated teams in a dance before waiting for the remaining teams to cross the Finish Line. All the eliminated teams were waiting to find out who would cross the Finish Line first and win $1,000,000. When they found out that Nat & Kat crossed the Finish Line first and won $1,000,000, everyone congratulated them on being the first all-female team to win. Rachel, although still upset that she and Katie were not that team, said she was still happy for their win. The teams then greeted Brook & Claire as they crossed the Finish Line in 2nd Place, with everyone noting that the top two teams were both female teams. When Jill & Thomas finally crossed the Finish Line in 3rd Place, Thomas conceded that even though he and Jill were top competitors, Nat & Kat and Brook & Claire were truly the top two teams. Teams expressed their opinions about the final three teams at the Finish Line along with their joys and disappointments and the learning experiences they could draw from it.

Reception
Critical response
The Amazing Race 17 received mixed-to-positive reviews. Andy Dehnart of reality blurred wrote that its was "an average (at best) season, one plagued by a consistent lack of surprise, few actually challenging challenges, and a lot of stupidity."[23] Scott Von Doviak of The A.V. Club wrote that "the season has been somewhat less than amazing, exhibiting the same flaws that have plagued the last several editions of the long-running series: lackluster challenges, repetitive airport and taxicab drama, too many unlikeable teams, too many equalizing points along the route, and a distinct lack of suspense at the end of too many legs."[24] Luke Dwyer of TV Fanatic wrote that this season had "an unusually likable cast. Only a handful of contestants were the kind you actively root against and even those were tamed by The Amazing Race standards. Instead we were treated to a cast without a dominant group, but one that was easy to root for."[25] In 2016, this season was ranked 3rd out of the first 27 seasons by the Rob Has a Podcast Amazing Race correspondents.[26] Likewise in 2021, Jane Andrews of Gossip Cop also ranked this season as the show's 3rd best season.[27] Val Barone of TheThings ranked this season as the show's 2nd best season.[28]
