This season also reduced the number of times the Yield appeared to three, compared to the previous season, where the Yield had been featured in almost every leg. Throughout the season, host Phil Keoghan verbally stated this rule when introducing each leg's Roadblock.

No team member was permitted to complete more than six Roadblocks on the entire race. This season was the first in which team members had to complete an equal number of Roadblock tasks. The Amazing Race made its first trip to seven new countries: Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Hungary, Sri Lanka, Ethiopia, and Senegal. The 30 days of filming began on August 13, 2004, and finished on September 12. The Amazing Race 6 spanned a total of 40,000 miles (64,000 km) over ten countries on four continents. CBS also delayed the airing of season 6 until late in the fall and moved it out of its proposed Saturday timeslot in order to create a 'cool down' period between races, in the hopes that this would help continue the newfound ratings success. Early renewal was likely due to the success of the changes made in season 5. In May 2004, CBS ordered the sixth season of the show, despite the fact that The Amazing Race 5 had not yet aired. Production Development and filming Chicago's Buckingham Fountain was the starting line of The Amazing Race 6. The season premiered on CBS on November 16, 2004, and concluded on February 8, 2005.Įngaged couple Freddy Holliday and Kendra Bentley were the winners of this season, while dating couple Jon Buehler and Kris Perkins finished in second place, and exes Adam Malis and Rebecca Cardon finished in third. Hosted by Phil Keoghan, it featured eleven teams of two competing in a race around the world in order to win US$1,000,000. The Amazing Race 6 is the sixth season of the American reality television series The Amazing Race.
