WILL ONE LONG-STANDING ALLIANCE CONTINUE TO STAY STRONG OR WILL TEAMS FINALLY BREAK OUT ON THEIR OWN TO IMPROVE THEIR STANDING, ON "THE AMAZING RACE 10," SUNDAY, NOV. 19

"Lookin' Like A Blue-Haired Lady On A Sunday Drive" -- Will one long-standing alliance continue to stay strong or will Teams finally break out on their own to improve their standing, on THE AMAZING RACE 10, Sunday, Nov. 19 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Teams are feeling the pressure to perform their best as there is little room for error at this stage of the Race. At the Virtual Pitstop, all Teams must repel face-first down a 236 foot high tower. One Team is put to the ultimate test as they face their extreme fear of heights in order to complete the challenge and continue Racing. Two teams race head-to-head the entire leg of the Race and form an uneasy partnership. Frustration continues to mount as one Team's bad luck with automobiles continues.

THE AMAZING RACE 10 features 12 Teams of two on a trek around the world for approximately 30 days. At every destination, each Team will compete in a series of challenges -- some mental and some physical -- and only when the tasks have been completed will they learn their next destination. Teams who are farthest behind will gradually be eliminated as the contest progresses, with the first Team to arrive at the final destination winning $1 million.

Jerry Bruckheimer, Bertram van Munster, Jonathan Littman and Hayma Screech Washington are the executive producers for Bruckheimer Television and Earthview Inc., in association with Touchstone Television and Amazing Race Productions. THE AMAZING RACE was created by Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri.
