I don't watch that much television. Brief aside, somehow when I'm overseas and packing my bag to return home, I will inevitably flip on the TV, find the National Geographic Channel, and there it is...Seconds From Disaster. It is always a show about a commercial airplane disaster. It's freakishly reliable. I'm not superstitious; it's just tradition now.
Of course when I am home and turn on my TV, I'm naturally pulled toward shows about travel. I must admit some jealously of Anthony Bourdain. I'm sure the No Reservations show comes with its own drawbacks to produce, but travelling and eating...come on.
I have to assume that restaurants featured on the show almost instantly becomes overrun with tourists. But I'm not ashamed to say that I will likely join their ranks. I do some restaurant scouting by watching the show and will definitely take in some of his places. And he makes me laugh. It worth a watch for any travel enthusiast, either for the ideas, the laughs or both.
