5. The food shows and Anthony Bourdain are the only things that make that channel watchable.
At least the shows are loosely related to travel. They're a million times better than their "Top 20 places to do ______" and ghost hunting shows.

16. I agree ...
His show is really well done. It's about culture as much as food. There's some intelligence to it.

21. Bourdain I have no problem with, but they should change the name of the channel
to "Whatever the fuck we feel like airing" channel

From ghost hunters to exotic food tasters...this channel has nothing to do with travel IMHO
