I just finished watching The Amazing Race Asia 2 (the finale aired last week), and I must say the Asian edition is equally as good as the American version. Host Allen Wu is phenomenal (though he's no Phil Keoghan), as he has lots of charisma and enthusiasm and is great at replicating Phil's poker face.
The Asian edition is 100% like the American version and some of the Detours and Roadblocks are down right brutal. The prize is only $100,000, and they don't travel as far around the world, but everything else is the same.
AXN, the network that airs the show in Asia, streamed the episodes for free online. I had trouble with their streaming being too slow, so I searched the net and found out that people had recorded the streams to distribute for those having trouble viewing them.
If you decide to watch, use the spoiler function as not everyone will be on the same episode.
I figured this might tide people over until the U.S. version airs again next fall.
