good on CNN for making this watchable from all around the world!

Shits and bitches are dropped every now and then but fuck is still dropped from audio. Better than travel channel that bleeps everything.

Watched the second half of the first episode.

It was better than average and captivating.

I think that the exotic/never-before-seen locations is a big draw.

And, the emphasis on food and a little history on the country is a plus.

I will be watching this coming Sunday again.

Episode 2 is KoreaTown in LA, angle he's taking based from the previews is the re-building of KoreaTown after the 1992 LA riots. Preview also has him trying "halo-halo" from Jolibee haha.

StylinRed 04-16-2013 08:09 PM

hasn't he done korea town in his other shows?
as for this episode i find it in bad taste to be doing a show about food in burma given the ethnic violence going on there, might give it a watch later on... does anyone know if he touches on that issue?

another cnn series that im looking forward to is George Strombo's he got picked up by CNN to do 10 or so episodes interviewing people

Bad taste or not, I think the show is trying to be at least a little provocative.

Yes, he does mention a little about it, but never specifically saying "ethnic cleansing".

Good show but it should not be on CNN because it is not news. CNN is slowly turning into MTV soon there will be no actual news on the channel at all just a bunch of scrraming pundits.

Agreed.

But... it's on Sunday.

CNN has to have SOME shows that is not straight news, or it will be super boring.

It's a ratings game after all.

lowside67 04-24-2013 03:55 PM

Not true... it's up. Maybe you should look on a certain bay with the pirates floating around?

truth 04-27-2013 11:54 AM

red_2 04-28-2013 10:51 PM

God damnn I keep trying to record the show on CNN but it keeps playing some other shit that its not supposed too!!!! even the later repeats are showing the different shows like the fricking correspondents dinner playing right now.

Next week: Canada......sweet.

lowside67 04-29-2013 09:54 AM

I was not that stoked to watch an episode on LA but honestly it was much better than I thought it would be!

murd0c 04-29-2013 01:54 PM

Last nights one of Columbia was veru interesting and no question the one on Canada is going to be great next week.

KingDeeCee 05-13-2013 08:28 PM

Pretty late on the episodes, but I thought the Columbia one was kind of boring. The guests he had on were very quiet. Not sure if it was the language barrier or what, but it felt really awkward to watch them have a conversation. Not to mention the lack of food porn.

That being said, can't wait to watch the remaining episodes. Canada and Morroco.

fliptuner 05-13-2013 08:40 PM

Just a heads up, the preview originally called it a Canada episode, when it's really only about Quebec.

Marshall Placid 05-13-2013 11:34 PM

The "Canada" one was boring.

It was just about Quebec.

The Colombia one was better.

I still need to catch up on Morocco.

red_2 05-15-2013 02:44 PM

I thought the Quebec episode was great, it was like straight up food porn.

I could care less about Quebec

:troll:

Sir_Loin 05-15-2013 03:00 PM

Morocco episode, too bad he wasn't able to try it on camera.
