Production edit

Development and filming edit

 
Avenue Hall near Ben Gurion Airport was the very first Starting Line of HaMerotz LaMillion.

On 8 April 2008, Disney-ABC International Television announced that it granted the license for Reshet to produce an Israeli version of The Amazing Race.[1]

Much like the American and Asian franchises, route markers were colored yellow and white in Vietnam to avoid confusion with the former flag of South Vietnam. Differing from most of the other franchises of the series, the last leg was not filmed back-to-back with the previous legs. On 30 May 2009, months after the penultimate leg had been filmed and during the broadcast of the actual show, teams were flown to the final destination to film the final leg.[2] The theme song was also different than the original American version's theme song with Israeli-style music.

Graham Keating, Sydney's famous town crier, served as the Pit Stop greeter during Leg 8. He previously appeared as a greeter during The Amazing Race 2.[3]

Cast edit

 
Liran Kohener
 
Elena Ralph

The cast for this season included retired beauty queens Liran Kohner and Elena Ralph as well as the son of singer Ilanit, Amichay Gat.[4]

Maya & Amichay separated not long after the season aired, and Maya married Israeli actor Ron Shahar, who would become the show's new host in 2011, on 28 August 2010.[5] The couple had one daughter and separated April 2019.[6]

Key
  • A red team placement indicates that the team was eliminated.
  • A green ƒ indicates that the team won a Fast Forward.
  • A blue team placement indicates that the team was the last to arrive at a Pit Stop in a non-elimination leg.
    • An underlined blue placement indicates that the team was forced to relinquish all of their money and belongings (except for passports and the clothes on their back) for the remainder of the season. In addition, they were not allotted money for the next leg and were not allowed to collect money until the next leg started for them.
    • An italicized blue placement indicates that the team was "marked for elimination"; if the team did not place 1st in the next leg, they would receive a 30-minute penalty.

Notes
  1. ^ Hadas & Inbal left the Pit Stop in Vũng Tàu in last place at the start of Leg 5 because they accidentally slept in.
