Anthony Bourdain - Parts Unknown
Am I the only one who finds his/this show totally cool? And I guess it proves that I DO watch more than Fox News!
Much like Guy Fieri and Charlie Rose, but in totally different ways because the shows are totally different, they all have great jobs and do a great job with their shows. It' Saturday, it's cold as all get-out, and I'm working on reasons to not rotate the tires.... Last edited by GloryDayz; 11-15-2014 at 02:45 PM.. |

I don't know why it's in DC, but I do like it. I think it's great that he shows you every-day life areas of places he visits.

I agree. I know when I come across it I usually don't change the channel. I'm not as interested in the US-based stuff because I'm here (although it's not "bad"), but the overseas stuff is shown through a very interesting journalistic lens.

It's a fantastic collection of video essays on place. Wonderful show.
The comparison to Guy Fieri is bizarre, however. Also GD, this should have been posted in the Media Center subforum. |

And the comparison to Guy Fieri was that they have cool jobs, nothing more. I know this, I'd rather have either of their jobs most of the time. Anthony for the travel and meeting of people the world-ver, Guy Fieri for the the awesome food! |

Except Guy Fieri's job just may give him a heart attack some day.

On the subject of Fieri's show - his schtick is kind of annoying but I do like how he goes in the kitchen of those places and has them show you how they cook. Gives me a lot of respect for these people that go to a ton of effort just to make one dish.

But alas this is more about Anthony and his more thought-provoking work, not the gut-filling awesomeness Guy exposes (but is very cool to watch being made and trying to duplicate at home)... |
