    It sounds gimmicky and completely set up, but with this bunch it works.

    The rapid-fire editing suggests the producers are people who find MTV’s pace too slow. But Better is devilishly clever about dropping teasers about its destinations to get you as excited as its travelers about the journey. This is a Travel Channel spectacular with 10 times the budget and 100 times the star power.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. Could be a good show. Jeff was disrespectful to the country, mooning. Stop trying to add sex and pornography to what could be a nice TV show. George, help W. Shatner set Jeff straight or throw him off the bus! We visit other countries to learn of their culture. This is history. Stop insulting the folks! Full Review »

If your ever wondered who these guys were this is the time to find out. It’s sophomoric and wonderful all at the same time. These guys really have have affection for each other and it seems very genuine. Finally you get to see unusual parts of the countries they visit that never makes the travelogues. I know it seems weird, but give it a try. Full Review »
