TV Program Lousy

AI Highlights
  • - The show centers on the host; other hosts should rotate.
  • - The host's self-promotion feels egotistical.
  • - More focus on destinations and activities.

Occasionally watch his program very briefly because it is on directly after the one I was watching. I turn off his touring program soon afterwards because it is self centered on him and how wonderful he thinks he is.

Needs to be about the destinations, people and activities first, himself last or best yet not at all. Seems like he loves himself and I do not like people like that. Therefore anything he is doing to draw attention to himself is egotistical and self congratulatory which is disdainful.

There are many better programs of this nature on various media which are more informative, more interesting, and less about the narrator. This program should also rotate to include other hosts, he is too boring and nothing to look at.

Cons:
  • Possibly paid to endorse selected locations and products
  • Need alternative hosts
  • Egotistical
Reason of review:
Bad quality

You can find almost anything he talks about in the USA. You don't need to go to Europe and besides you can't travel there now.

Boring host. Would not buy anything from his company.
