None of us that find HH incredibly condescending to his guests said that
the show isn't interesting or that he doesn't go to unique places worthy
of our attention. It's just that he behaves so boorishly when he gets
there and starts treating the locals like little children. Personally, I
have never watched the show by design, I always just happen to be spinning
and stop to take a look.
