The Amazing Race: Spring 2015 Ratings

Last spring saw the ratings for The Amazing Race drop by nearly 25% in the 18-49 demographic. That decline may have prompted CBS to move the venerable competition to Friday nights for the fall — where the ratings dropped even lower. How will it do this time around? Could it be cancelled or will it be renewed for a 27th season? We’ll have to wait and see.

Phil Keoghan returns as host of the 26th cycle of The Amazing Race. A group of 11 dating couples — six in longstanding relationships while five have just met — race across the world, all in pursuit of a million dollar prize.

The higher a show’s ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better its chances for survival. New ratings data will be added as it becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

5/11 update: The series has been renewed for a 27th cycle by CBS.
