High Definition Travel Show Review: Journey of a Lifetime with Jeremy Piven

High Definition television is causing a resurgence in travel themed programming. We tend to think the genesis for these programs was the oft mocked, briefly aired Taradise. This new breed of travel programming is often shallow, mildly informative, and sometimes even unintentionally entertaining. We will let you know which of these shows we consider either best-of-breed, or unwatchable, we can't decide. Feel free to submit your own suggestions.

Travel Show: Journey of a Lifetime with Jeremy Piven

Channel:Discovery HD

Broadcast Times: Various

Typical Episode: Jeremy Piven, in India, wearing U2 t-shirt, renting a moped and calling it a motorcycle.

Typcial Dialougue: "The intensity of this city was softened by this oasis that was inspiring and humbling."

Typical Web Board Show Comment: "You guys took it way too seriously and/or were way too sober when you were watching it. I mean Jeremy Piven trying to pick up that Jewish shama? And then trying to pick up that Bollywood star? Seriously I thought it was hilarious the incredible cognitive dissonance he showed. And yes after the first half we devised a drinking based on whether he said "namaste" or two drinks if he hit on someone inappropriately."

Little Known Fact: Jeremy Piven's hair plugs don't hold up in High Def.

Hybrid: Apocalypse Now meets PCU
