Travel Sick
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Travel Sick (2001–2003) was a hybrid comedy-travel television show which placed UK writer Grub Smith in a different region of the world in each episode. In each destination Smith was asked to complete five undesirable challenges posed by the show's producers. If he failed a challenge, he was forced to perform something unpleasant called a "forfeit." The more he failed the worse the "forfeit" at the end of the show became.
The series aired on Bravo in the UK and on Comedy Central in the United States.
