Sam and Graham's next road trip takes them to New Zealand. The Scottish duo zips down mountains and comes face to face with a terrifying apex predator.

Did nobody watch this? It was fun. New Zealand is so incredibly gorgeous, and Sam and Graham aren’t bad either. 
It’s got the same “plot” as last time. Graham is presented as a scholarly gentleman, and Sam an adrenaline junkie, and they do all sorts of scary things together all over NZ this time, instead of Scotland. Graham has been living there since he was in The Hobbit (which I didn’t even know)

There was a show a few years ago now called The Bucket List. It only ran for two seasons, but it had 4 older gentlemen (Terry Bradshaw, George Foreman, William Shatner, and Henry Winkler) and some young comedian who I didn’t know, traveling around the world doing things that they’d never done before. The four were hilarious, mocking each other and really enjoying all of the weird food, and strange experiences. This show reminds me of that one, though with way more adrenaline!

This was a fun episode! No way would I want to do any of what they did, but NZ is gorgeous.

The flight over Milford Sound was stunning.  Would love to do that some day.  I'm not a fan of the Sam/Graham bickering but that seems to be their theme.

finally signed up for a short Starz stint, so watching this.  NZ has always been on my personal bucket list, so I'm definitely loving seeing this.  I could never do the ziplining, but the helicopter trip is certainly something i'd consider. beautiful.
