For the previous season with the same subtitle, see The Amazing Race: All-Stars (2007).

The Amazing Race: All-Stars (2014) is the twenty-fourth installment of the reality television series, The Amazing Race. The series was renewed on March 27, 2013 for the 2013–14 TV season. This is the second season to have All-Stars subtitle (The Amazing Race 11 was the first) and the third to feature racers from different previous seasons. This season premiered on February 23, 2014.

Production[]

The 24th edition was decided to be another returnee season featuring eleven returning teams from past seasons featuring teams from The Amazing Race 14 onwards, including seven contestants competing for the third time. The season's introduction bumper did not include the intro caps for all the teams in every episode as previous seasons did.

However, several returning teams were originally selected to compete once again:

Filming began on November 16, 2013, however, it was marred by several production issues. The Amazing Race 20 contestant Bopper Minton began showing signs of pancreatitis before arriving in Los Angeles for filming and was deemed unfit to compete by the production's medical team upon arrival. To make the last minute adjustment, Mallory Ervin, who previously competed in The Amazing Race 17 and The Amazing Race: Unfinished Business with her father, Gary, was invited to be Bopper's replacement. Bopper and his The Amazing Race 20 teammate, Mark Jackson, were advertised as a team, with Bopper's replacement and Mark & Mallory's formation as a team intended to be aired as a surprise twist. However, this was leaked well before the premiere.

The season traveled through three continents, eight countries, and 22 cities, spanning a distance of 23,000 miles (37,000 km), it concluded on December 6, 2013 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Legend:
     The team finished in first place
     The team finished in last place and was eliminated from the race
     The team finished in last place in a non-elimination leg
     The team that won The Amazing Race
     The team that crossed the Finish Line second
     The team that crossed the Finish Line third
ϵ The team used the Express Pass somewhere during the leg
The team used the U-Turn
Recipient of the U-Turn
The team that used the second slot of the "Double U-Turn"
Recipient of a second U-Turn due to the "Double U-Turn" twist

Notes:
1: Several teams received time credits due to production errors and left the pit start of the second leg in a different order than their placements in the previous leg. Margie & Luke departed 3rd, Dave & Connor departed 4th, Joey & Meghan departed 8th, Jessica & John departed 9th and Caroline & Jennifer departed 10th.
2: Caroline & Jennifer used their Express Pass to bypass the Roadblock in Leg 2. Before using the Express Pass, Caroline elected to perform the Roadblock, and this is reflected in the total Roadblock count.
3: Due to being so far behind the other teams, Margie & Luke did not perform any of the tasks on this leg.[16]
4: Jet & Cord used their Express Pass to bypass the Donkey Build Detour.
5: Caroline & Jennifer attempted to U-Turn Brendon & Rachel. However, Brendon & Rachel had already passed them, and were unaffected.
