Two Coloradans to compete in 37th season of The Amazing Race alongside friends and family
The competitors are part of the 14 teams that will confront challenges and take part in amazing adventures as they race around the world. This year, the show features its largest cast ever.
This year, Erika Papadeas of Englewood, Colo. has teamed up with her mother, Melinda, who lives in Chandler, Ariz., to take on the race.
Another Coloradan, Carrigain Scadden of Denver, is competing this year along with Bernie Gutierrez, a friend from Dallas.
"This season 14 teams will embark on an unforgettable adventure," said Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri, co-creators and executive producers of THE AMAZING RACE. "Traveling around the globe for a stop in Osaka, Japan, where they will experience a modern-day bullet train in a thriving city and then immerse themselves in a 12,000-year-old tradition, performing with a taiko drum group. They will feel the adrenaline rush of skydiving over Dubai's breathtaking cityscape contrasted with another stop, for the first time on THE AMAZING RACE, in the countryside of Bulgaria, where they will participate in a traditional folk dance. Adding a new city this season, teams will visit the medieval village of Strasbourg, France, which will feel like stepping into a fairytale. For our season of surprises, there is no end to the drama, twists and turns until we see who the winners are!"
Some classic game pieces like the Fast Forward and U-Turn are waiting for our competitors, along with new ones like a Fork in the Road. During the first leg of the race in Hong Kong, teams will have to choose which direction and route to take to the Pit Stop, creating two parallel races and eliminating two teams.

Julie Chen addresses ‘Big Brother' retirement plans
Julie Chen Moonves will always be the head of the 'Big Brother' household. The television personality, 55, has hosted the long-running CBS reality show since 2000. And in honor of the competition series' 25th anniversary, Chen Moonves revealed if she sees retirement in her future. 'You know what?' she told Entertainment Weekly on Wednesday.

I can give the Energizer Bunny a run for its money.' 10 The CBS series 'Big Brother.' CBS via Getty Images When it comes to her fellow hosts, Chen Moonves stated, 'I don't want to see someone else host 'Survivor' or 'Amazing Race' either. I really don't.' The former talk show host has a great deal of affection for 'Big Brother,' which enters its 27th season on Thursday. Advertisement 'It goes two ways,' Chen Moonves noted about the series. 'I can't imagine my life without 'Big Brother' every summer, and I can't imagine 'Big Brother' without me. It's kind of like we go hand in hand. I'm part of the show from season 1 and part of building it up.' 10 'Big Brother' Season 9. Getty Images Along with being a fixture on the show, the news anchor's mantras are also a staple of the summer. 'My catch phrases! Can you imagine someone else delivering 'But first…' or 'Love one another' or 'Expect the unexpected' or 'The power is up for grabs'? I don't think so,' Chen Moonves said.

'There are mixed emotions internally and externally about bringing back past players because they get a little bit jaded and they're more sophisticated, and some of them you don't want to bring back because they were difficult the first time around.' On Sunday, Chen Moonves celebrated the 25th anniversary with a sweet Instagram tribute. 'Twenty-five years ago, a new show arrived on our screens,' she penned. 'It was a social experiment like never before. We rooted for our favorites, watched epic blindsides, watched showmances blossom, were locked in for the live evictions, and so much more. So, thank you for these amazing 25 years of Big Brother. We wouldn't be here without all of you.' 10 Julie Chen Moonves during evictions on 'Big Brother.'

Oilers faithful Superfan Magoo hits TV screens on The Amazing Race Canada
When Blair Gladue and his wife Skylene 'Nipîy' Gladue were asked to join this season's cast of The Amazing Race he had one big worry. 'I looked at the schedule and I was like, 'oh, no, you know what? If we do this, I'm going to miss the first two rounds of the Stanley Cup playoffs,'' says Gladue, known best in Oiler fandom and Edmonton at large as Superfan Magoo. 'Then, if we lost any of those first two rounds, it's going to be on me.' Thankfully the Oilers made it past those two playoff encounters for Gladue, who runs Magoo Crew Entertainment when he isn't leading chants and beating on a drum at Rogers Place games. Gladue and his five associates host youth workshops across the country, focusing on hoop and traditional dancing, rapping and break dancing as they dispense their message about suicide awareness and anti-bullying. Gladue's wife Skylene is also an entertainer; she's unavailable for the interview due to prior commitments as part of the touring cast of Bear Grease, which is currently enjoying an Off-Broadway run at the Theater at St. Luke's in Manhattan. With no way to check in on McDavid and crew from mid-April to mid-May, Gladue was forced to stay in the moment as he competed against 11 teams representing cities from across Canada. This year, five contestants were drawn from Alberta: Jesse Harink of Sherwood Park (teamed with Ontario's Jonathan Braun) plus Calgary brothers Osas and Esosa Igbinosun battling with the Gladues for provincial glory. Gladue, who says that he's watched a number of seasons in the past, admits that he wasn't quite prepared for what he and his wife went through. 'It was insane, amazing, and crazy,' says Gladue, 'Emotions were running wild, adrenaline was flowing. It's nothing like when you're watching it on TV. It's, in fact, 10 times harder than what you see on TV. This was a life-changing experience for sure.' The reality show, which features teams in competition with each other across the country, kicks off Tuesday (July 8) at 9 p.m. MT on CTV, and the CTV app, with streaming available the next day on Crave. Episodes after that run every Tuesday until the still-to-be-announced final entry. Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton was the starting point, but the competition sees the teams moving through Red Deer, Prince George, the Northwest Territories and beyond. The pace is hectic, the physical toll punishing. That being said, Gladue insists that if anyone gets the opportunity to do it, they should snap it up immediately. 'But make sure, before you do it, that you do a lot of running and a lot of walking,' he cautions. 'Work out and eat well, because you're going to need all of that; it's not easy. I'm a high-energy guy, always moving, and my wife is the one who works out every morning, goes to the gym. But after the show, I'm like, 'You know what? Man, I need this.' I need to work out more, so I stretch and work out every morning, seven days a week.' Gladue and his wife can't speak to anything that happened during their month-long competition, but Blair does speak fondly of the friends he made. We'll just have to keep up with episodes as they roll in to see who wins season 11, with its attendant prizes of two 2025 Chevrolet Blazer EV SS, a trip around the world, and a $250,000 cash prize. If the Gladues win it all, they promise to use some of that cash money for good, just as they promised at the very beginning to represent Indigenous people and the youth. 'Except that on our clothing, it said 'fer the youth,' not 'for the youth,'' he explains. 'That's youth slang. We're getting the message out there, representing our people, our community, you know, but also representing our Oiler fans!'
