11 Teams Begin Their Voyage In A Race Around The World When The Amazing Race 5 Returns With A Special 90 Minute Broadcast Tuesday, July 6 (9:30-11:00 PM) on CBS.  
 
In the premiere episode, 11 diverse teams of two set off on the first leg of the race starting at the famous Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles and quickly making their way to Uruguay.  
 
A medical emergency has one team racing to catch their flight, while tensions ensue among other teams after a team holds up the line at the ticket counter in order to honor an early alliance.  
 
Once in Uruguay, two teams battle to avoid elimination after not completing the challenge correctly.  
 
 
First location is Uruguay...(spoliers were correct)
 
Medical Problem?  Maybe its one of those faceplants at the starting line (on the commercial you see about 3-4 people having faceplants).

When you trip and fall on your face
 
In many of the TAR5 commercials, you see about 3-4 people tripping over each other and falling on their face.  Maybe one of those is serious enough to require medical attention?

I wish they would air more TAR commercials when I'm watching TV! Granted, that's not often, but still, I really would like to see more

They are very often!  I see at least 2 of them every hour of programming
 
Just saw one during Joan of Arcadia about 5 minutes ago (since May 27th, i've been watching CBS every hour of primetime and latenight to catch the commercials...they really are going the extra mile this season).
 
And seeing the commercials, it looks like Dennis & Jim are the ones to make 2 of the facepalnts...can't tell who the others are though...Dennis recovers quickly, but in the Early Show team release...after jim's faceplant they don't show him running anymore.
 
I think jim will be the one with the medical problem.

It could be - especially the surface on where they fell on.  But there are dozens of other reasons why someone would need medical attention.

I may have more on the medical information.
 
The first advert I've seen on my tv was just a few minutes ago.  It was a quite different from the CBS promo.
 
The only thing basically I really noticed was there was a guy (don't know who yet) who seemed to have blood all over his lower leg.    I'll try and get a few more updates if I am able to see it and record it later - probably tomorrow.

Well, as I had said.  I did record the next advert I've seen.
As I don't have a digital camera I couldn't take any pictures and put them up on the net...so maybe someone else who watches the show on AXN could do it I hope.
 
A lot of the stuff was so general or not detailed at all but I'll put it down.
 
Here are some points from the preview: (it may not be in order)
 
The two cousins next to some kind of canal/river (Charla on Mirna's back though).
 
Dennis and Erika (as to what I could make out) running next to each other with a reddish-colour ferris wheel in the background with what it seems a yellow carriage all behind a blue wall and there was a white fence next to it.
 
An airline counter with Jim and Marsha, Dennis and Erika, and another team I couldn't make out.
 
At a beach with finger-like 'statues' coming out of the ground with a clue box showing Dennis and Erika and Marshall and Lance separately.
 
Something looking like a ferry landing with white/blue colours in the background where Jim and Marsha are at the back of their car.\
 
A guy wearing greenish trousers with blood all over his right lower leg.  It looks as if the injury was at the knee and the  blood flowed down the leg.   When that picture faded, it showed Jim and Marsha...so we know Jim is the one who got injured.   There were sitting in some kind of vehicle with lots of empty space.
 
The zipline down the blue building but shown at different angles.  The guy getting ready was wearing a grey, no sleeve shirt and tan coloured trousers.
 
The cousins by the road, looking as if to cross it and had short houses (sort of like shops) on the other side and taller buildings further away in the background.
 
Kami and Karli stepping out of a blue/white boat at a pier with Bob and Joyce behind them.
 
A narrow parth with a river/stream underneath with lots of trees in front and there was a team running towards it.  They had their backs to me so I couldn't figure out who they are though.
 
Alison and Donny by standing by brick walls behind their white car opening the boot to get their packs.
 
A pavement with a big yellow Yield sign and also a yield sign painted or placed on the floor with a box next to it.

Really?  That's really interesting, since it's a US show anyway.  I guess one of the others could get you a photo of it since I don't have a digital camera so I can't - of course if you really do want a picture of it.  It's almost just like a normal sign.  It's black on yellow.

CBS is keeping us in the dust
 
And in my opinion...the commercials are corny
 
Where's the action music?  Its all this boring slow music Sad
And they focus on the "relationships"...i'd rather them focus on the race, tasks, and the problems between the teams, not the problems in a team.
