Still finding fresh geography.
The #22 slot.
Slot #22 of 38 in the Amazing Race Editor's Canon. Season 22 is the franchise still pacing well into its second decade. Eleven teams started from French Polynesia into a twelve-leg spring route through New Zealand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Botswana, Switzerland, Germany, and Northern Ireland before finishing in Washington. CBS held the Sunday hour and the production opened with a starting line outside the United States — a quiet structural tweak the editing room used to push the early legs into broader coverage. Phil Keoghan paces a season whose geography is the argument. The canon places it twenty-second because the season holds its shape across the route, even where the casting does not produce the kind of chemistry the higher-canon outings depend on.
