		<description>Travel channel jumped the shark with this one. Not only is she dumb as a brick, but if anyone thinks she&#039;s remotely hot needs their head examined. The girl is dumpy, with a granny grill. A real horror show in the morning, I bet. 

With shows like Man vs Food and this, I see the travel channel eventually pandering to the idiot index and looking more  and more like the Food Network. Good luck Anthony Bourdain, the writing&#039;s on the bimbo.</description>

		<description>I haven&#039;t seen the show listed for a while, I can only hope that The Travel Channel has come to it&#039;s senses and cancelled the no-talent, annoying little twit.  She belongs on MTV, Spike or the Playboy Channel - where people don&#039;t care if you have no brains or talent.  It&#039;s clearly just a T&amp;A show - who cares??  Bridget - GO AWAY AND STAY AWAY!</description>

		<description>Pathetically, one of the reasons I got my cable is mainly because of the travel channel.  I love Zimmer and Bourdain. Their shows got a lot of quality, style, and educational values to it.  I didn&#039;t understand why TC introduced the new show something like Bridget&#039;s sexy beaches.  I was surprised.  Anyways, I gave it a shot to watch it.  The comments were right, it seemed like she was acting or something. Was she faking of being scared of what she was about to experience? She was OOohing here and there and Wowing here and there.  I personally think her makeup was way too cakey for an outdoor show.  And of course, I don&#039;t like the half nudity.  If I do like nudity I would go for another show.   It&#039;s not a Man&#039;s World like before and I hope Girls can have more self respect.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve been wanting to write a review about this show since I first wasted my time watching it.  Who did Ms. Bridget have to sleep with to allow the Travel Channel to air this tripe?  One word... pretentious.  I&#039;m so sick of seeing busty blonds acting stupid and helpless.  Is there actually a producer or creator out there who thinks this is the mentality of their viewer?</description>

		<description>Yeah Dhani Tackles the Globe is an awesome show.  The dudes got personality and style.  I love his moto of taking the initiative in a situation that presents itself to him because he realizes that you only have one shot at a moment in life.  Its also pretty hilarious at times and an overall great new show.</description>

		<description>Ok, I&#039;ve been an avid watcher of the Travel Channel for quite a while now... I watch Bourdain, Zimmern, Brown... I gave it a shot to Man V Food, and I said: &quot;Eh.. Ok&quot; then I watched Dhani and I said: &quot;Eh.. Ok.&quot; and then Bridget and I said:

&quot;Heck No!&quot; I mean, if they wanted an excuse to get an almost naked playboy bunny on the screen then they&#039;ve got it. I thought that the travel channel would care more about the intellectual hunger of its viewers. If they wanted something &quot;Sexy&quot; then.. why couldn&#039;t they just get a &quot;Sexy&quot; girl who also has something in her head? I can&#039;t understand. I am sure that there are plenty of gorgeous girls out there who are also talented for hosting a travel show. 

I am sorry, but this Bridget really does not even know what she is doing, all she does is giggle and wow at everything she sees, and that is ok to a certain extent, but when we are talking about a &quot;world class&quot; channel then they should try to keep up a &quot;world class&quot; standard for their hosts.</description>

		<description>Years ago I produced a show for the TC on a fine state in dixie. Well, they wanted it to be &quot;sexy&quot; back then- seriously. While on the road with this production we met TONS of TC fans and they were all late 30&#039;s and up. NOT the demo that TC wants, but honestly these ARE their viewers. 

Why do they try SO HARD to try to be young and hip? If only it was fashionable to market to adults rather than teens.</description>

		<description>Ya&#039;ll are IDIOTS!  It&#039;s a frickin&#039; SHOW for God&#039;s sake, NOT a presidential debate!  The TC attempts to show a different perspective and you all manage to diminish and insult American women as a whole.  Do you insult American men when one hosts show that is ALL about how big of a phucking pig one can be in each small, teeny town in the US?  NO!  Get a life, take a breath, and don&#039;t be so serious.  There&#039;s a place for EVERYthing, including a reformed addict such as Anthony Bourdain.  Love him as I may, he has his flaws and is human just as Bridget is.  

The truth about Bridget is that she is smart and possibly plays the role to pay her bills.  More importantly, she represents that element of tourist who is afraid to ask a &quot;stupid&quot; question but needn&#039;t be because there are many resources available for an answer.  Simply put, she is REAL, not the least bit pretentious.  Blonde?  YES!  Flaky?  POSSIBLY?  Fake?  Not necessarily.  She represents the average tourist who isn&#039;t a self-righteous, a-hole, know-it-all.</description>

		<description>while i understand the uproar, at least the show isn&#039;t claiming to be anything other than that it is. look at the title! and really let&#039;s face it, most american women are worse than bridget in terms of intelligence and experience. and many of you act like she&#039;s some sort of ambassador to the states. as if she&#039;s the first woman to travel abroad!  also, she&#039;s traveling to all of the places that skinny big boobed stereotypes flock to on their spring break vacations. so in that respect, it&#039;s a perfect show for the majority of people who watch tv, because they&#039;re more likely to go to waikiki beach than tibet.</description>
