^^^ Will really get a kick out of these replies

It just occurred to me that I could afford to do much more actual traveling if I cancelled my cable subscription.

This channels only use is putting "No Reservations" on the air

each viewer is worth over $2,600 to them? Wow, these people must be buying an awful lot of overpriced crap.

well, yeah, because they run 53 minutes of commercials every hour, and re-play the same commercial 14 times during that same hour

(only a SLIGHT exaggeration...if you have watched anything on the Travel Channel lately, you know exactly what I mean)

So 370,000 people like to see screeching blondes in English castles and clueless lunkheads taunting the dead?

$975 million? I better get a trip around the world with my favorite tour guide.

"As I was perusing the article, it donned on me, I should say something snarky, but hell, let's have a couple more shots of this would local concoction and then I'm gonna go smoke a cigarette."

/great show

would = would

/cat like typing

No mention of Dhani Tackles the Globe? I love that show.

Gael Garcia Bernal gently yet forcefully making sweet, sweet love to Ryan Reynolds?

I like Man vs Food also. Not that I'd plan to gorge to the extent he does but some of that food he tries looks damn tasty. I'll be in Denver in January and plan on checking out at least one of the three places he hit. I must find a reason to travel to Chicago so I can find that place that serves that sublime looking Italian beef sandwich.....

When he went to the foie gras place in Montreal, I about died just looking at all of the food they gave him.

/Beirut episode was an instant classic

Do any actual globetrotters watch that show, or is it just a bunch of people watching to see that one guy eat bugs and animal penis?

The only reason I will watch this channel is because of Man vs Food. Unfortunately they also run that pompass idiot Anthony Bourdain WAY TOO MUCH (once is too much). How anyone can enjoy this douchenozzle is beyond me.

Yes, I know a lot of you farkers worship people like that, and even him specifically, but come on. While I concede he may (I don't know it though) have some redeeming information to convey, his arrogant, elitist attitudes make it impossible to find them in the seconds it takes to find the remote to change the channel to almost anything else.

You should read his book.

A friend of mine couldn't remember his name and referred to the show as "Rude Man Samples Food."

She's crazy cute.

travel channel has a lot going for it. Ghost Adventures, Man vs. Food... Isnt "Dhani Tackles The Globe" on there too?

phedex: Ghost Adventures

Watching Ghost Adventures in slow-motion is one of the great joys in my life.

I love Andrew Zimmern. I love food that flirts just between awesome and barf.

/prime demographic here, and its one of the the only channels I watch: along with the food network and HGTV.

It just dawned on me that you're mixing up your idiom as well.

FishyFred: friend of mine couldn't remember his name and referred to the show as "Rude Man Samples Food."

That's actually the title of the show in Japan.

I love the Travel Channel. Man vs Food, Anthony Bourdain, & Bizarre Foods/World are all on my DVR. I guess I'm right in their niche market.

Some of the crap he eats makes me want to vomit in my lap.

I like that show, but I have gone over to the Food Channel's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives for really scrumptious looking eats.


/Last night I watched the M v. F with the 190lb hamburger. That was so preposterous that I coudn't stop laughing.
