The Amazing Race is going on a European adventure with some familiar CBS reality faces.

The new season, which begins tonight (Sept. 25), will welcome 13 new pairs with preexisting relationships, but there’s also a twist — at least one person in each pair has appeared on Big Brother. Houseguests from seasons ranging from Season 12 to last summer’s Season 26.

The cast also includes two Big Brother winners: Season 23’s Taylor Hale (partnered with her boyfriend, BB alum Kyland Young) and Season 25’s Jag Bains.

This season’s race will take the pairs all over Europe, beginning in the Netherlands.

When Does The Amazing Race Season 38 Premiere?

The Amazing Race 37 premieres tonight, Thursday, Sept. 25 at 9 p.m. ET on CBS.

Beginning next week, Oct. 1, The Amazing Race will move to Wednesday evenings at 9:30 p.m. ET (following Survivor) for the rest of the season.
