The Amazing Race 2018 Live Stream: Watch Season 30 Premiere Online

Phil Keoghan returns as the host of The Amazing Race once again, with an all new cast, filled with athletes and reality TV stars, along with everyday folks as well. The show premieres tonight at 8 p.m. ET/PT on the CBS network, with teams of two ready to trek across the globe in hopes of winning a $1 million prize. Along the way, there will be challenges and obstacles to be completed, with teams gradually being eliminated throughout the competition, according to CBS. On episode 1 of the show this season, the teams start out in Washington Square Park in New York City before immediately heading out to Iceland and traverse a huge canyon above the Geitargljufur River. There are 11 teams this season and CBS reports that the contestants will travel to 10 different countries over the course of the show.
