CBS has officially unveiled the competitors for The Amazing Race: All-Stars season that premieres on Sunday, February 18th. Though the names have been out there for months now-- highlighted by Rob & Amber, little Charla & cousin Mirna and the only past winners, Uchenna & Joyce-- you'll be happy to know that two of fave teams from last season have joined Season 11's cast of losers -- except for Uchenna and Joyce, of course--in another try for the Dr. Evil-ish sum of one million dollars:

David & Mary Conley: The Kentucky coalminer and his wife (sixth place).

Dustin Seltzer & Kandice Pelletier: The beauty queen (fourth place) Barbies!

Uchenna & Joyce Agu: They won Season 7.

Charla Faddoul & cousin Mirna Hindoyan: Season 5 (sixth place).

Joe Baldassare & Bill Bartek: Life partners & "Team Guido" from Season 1 (third place).

Rob & Amber Mariano: The Season 7 annoyances who spun Survivor into marriage and a careers as reality TV pros (second place).

Kevin O'Connor & Drew Feinberg: The bald best buds & frat brothers from Season 1 (fourth place).

Eric Sanchez & Danielle Turner: they competed on seprate teams in Season 9 but became a couple later (second place, seventh place).

Oswald Mendez & Danny Jimenez: "Team Cha-Cha-Cha") from Season 2 (fourth place).

John Vito Pietanza & Jill Aquilino: A couple from Season 3 (fifth place) --now they're split!

Teri & Ian Pollack: From Season 3-- the oldest couple to finish as runners-up (second place). She's now 53. He's 54.

In the end, teams from seven of the past ten seasons are represented. The 45,000-mile, 28-day race ended December 19, after traveling "from extreme cold to extreme heat," a desert in northern Chile to "borderline South Pole" in Antarctica. Producer Bertram Van Munster says the contestants had to be thrown "curveball after curveball, because they all thought they knew what we were doing again."

Romber again? Is CBS trying to get them to win one so they can finally kick them to the road as hasbeens that nobody cares about? Geez are they going to have any help again like the last race they were in?

Dang! I didn't even recognize Mary all glammed up with the highlights in her hair.

And yeah, I'm so ovah Rombah. I don't get reality "stars" that can't just move on with their lives and get real careers. "Professsional reality contestant" is not much of a career to speak of. I'm pretty sure there's no health care and not much of a retirement account. What are they going to do when they get old and wrinkled and can no longer eat regurgitated sheep testicles soaked in bat vomit or ice climb up the side of a mountain and then rappel down backwards and upside down while blindfolded?

I wasn't going to watch this season for the sole reason of Romber (at least until they got Philiminated)---until I saw KEVIN & DREW!!!!!! Now I HAVE to watch.

I'm still hoping for a quick and PAINful Romber elimination. Please, God.

Good Lands! If I were Teri, I would sue the quack who pulled my face that tight. Just....WOW!

I love me some Rob Mariano - can't explain it, but I do.

Also - doing the Cha Cha Cha now that I see they are coming back - they were hilarious.

And I second the motion on Terri's face - WHAT THE HECK?
