      <content>yeah, there's a third season already filming (or done filming, perhaps).  it's actually called "feasting on waves," as it's now a boat-based show that--according to wikipedia--will circle the caribbean.  good times!</content>

      <content>I wonder if they consulted with Henry Winkler before attempting to jump that shark? ;-)

I thought the glimpse of americana through road food was this series strongpoint. </content>

      <content>I agree with your assessment of the show. There's no way people are going to relate to a show based on boating the way they relate to road food. It might be interesting, but I'm doubt it can have the same feeling of classic Americana.</content>

      <content>Unless maybe they get Jimmy Buffett to co-host.  Some of Bourdain's best were Caribbean destinations over the years.  Calvin Trillin wrote with great love for the fish at Baxters Road in Barbados.  I could see this working, especially if they actually get off the boat at these places, as opposed to simply trying to eat on the boat at dockside places - that would be way too limiting.

Who said it had to be Americana?  Maybe they're just expanding their world view a bit at a time.  This year the Carribean, maybe next year they'll motorcycle through the Italian Alps - the Piemonte or Lombardia, or the other alps - in New Zealand.  How about Japan from Kagoshima to Sapporo, stopping at every other hole-in-the wall or food cart.  I'd watch that in a NY minute.</content>

      <content>I enjoy this show, I am not sure I would like a boating or airplane segment.  I hope they keep it as it is just travel different parts of the country.</content>

      <content>I think for season 4 he's taking a segway through a food court.

      <content>I'm hoping for the best here.  The basic fact is I like the feel of the shows.  Very well filmed and I love coastal life, so hopefully they deliver another strong series.  There's a lot of very interesting culture he can delve into with the islands, visiting rum shops and the like.</content>
