The Wonder List

Following the success of Parts Unknown, CNN recently released their new travel series The Wonder List. They send Bill Weir on the road in an attempt to label him as “the new Anthony Bourdain”, but hey – that’s not gonna happen. This guy comes out quite different, even though it’s still quite interesting to follow his travels.

Onward to new adventures.

I’ve seen every episode of Bourdain’s TV series Parts Unknown so far, and I must say it gets even better for each season. The seasoned voice of Bourdain has matured from the food gonzo of No Reservations, as well as the somewhat sleepy The Layover series, into something far more serious and intelligent. Season 5 of Parts Unknown is currently filming and will be out this spring. Stay tuned.

Meanwhile, check out the pilot episode of The Wonder List.
