Amazing Race: Phil Keoghan Explains Why These 11 Teams Have Unfinished Business

The CBS reality hit returns Sunday with 11 veteran teams who had never won before to settle, as the season's subtitle says, some Unfinished Business. "These are teams that have been so incredibly popular that it was an opportunity to bring back some favorite teams that have favorite stories," host Phil Keoghan tells TVGuide.com. "They're teams that have really been walking around with the 'woulda, coulda, shoulda' ever since they got kicked off. It's like, enough moaning; come back and give it another shot and no more excuses."Check out photos from The Amazing RaceBut casting Unfinished Business — the show's second all-star outing after Season 11 — was as hard as designing the Race itself.

"It really comes down to whether you think that story of theirs is really stronger than that of anyone we've got," Keoghan says. "There are a lot of other teams, but I feel pretty confident that the teams we've got have the best stories and the best motivation for coming back."So why are these 11 also-rans the cream of the crop?
