Exhibits, Shows and Displays

Do you guys think that the Travel Channel is too National Geographic oriented?

I have been noticing that they have been making shows revolving tribes and their lifestyle habits and a show about tresure hunting and in my opinion it seems like something you would see in the National Geographic and Discovery channel. The Travel channel i believe needs to focus on what people watch the channel for and that is travel destinations. The only ones who seem to stay with the program is Samantha Brown, Anthony Bourdain, that new show Bridget's sexiest beaches might do well Andrew Zimmerman (should be on National Geographic and that new show Man vs Food should be on Food Network and world Poker Tour should be on ESPN or Game Show channel. Do you guys feel the same way and should the Travel Channel should focus more on real traveling shows that gives you information.

1. I agree that the Travel Channel sways from it's original intention. However..how boring would THAT be! I like Andrew and Adam (Man vs. Food), and without Anthony, the Travel Channel would stink. I agree that the Tribal stuff would better fit National Geographic, but either way it's good programming.
2. Well like tours, famous cities, even here in America, Mount Rushmore, Saint Louis, I guess they have air time and nothing presented to them different.
3. If you think about it, all of the food shows on the Travel Channel DO have that travel feel to it. Every place that Man vs. Food and Bizarre Food is different, and that's a part of travel. Hey, you have the right to your opinion, but the Travel Channel is still staying true to its purpose.
