About the time Pasquale ranted "I'd rather drink the Hippo shit", I would have gathered a team of burly porters and obliged him.

Pasquale just gets worse and worse as this expedition goes along. Why does he think he can unilaterally overrule everyone else around him? I love how he is
more and more an expert on everything under the sun. "I've been around hippos for 30 years." Yeah, right. The whole episode I was hoping for
Pasquale to be attacked by an alligator or a hippo and finally get owned.
So glad Benedict is winning his battle with Malaria. I don't know what poor Mireya would do if he had to leave the expedition. Probably kill Pasquale by leading him into a nest of venomous snakes . . . Speaking of venomous snakes. I know Mireya is a wildlife expert, but I get so nervous for her when she is telling us how deadly a snake is and the camera moves back to reveal how close she is to the snake while she's talking about it. Yikes!! I guess next week is the finale already? Best outcome is that Pasquale gets deathly ill from the hippo shit water he refuses to iodinize and HE is left behind and Benedict, Mireya and Kevin(?) finish the expedition without him. |

I thought there was going to be eight episodes. Wasn't this one the sixth?

I was hoping they'd tie hog tie paschal, throw him into the pile of hippos, all high-five each other and continue the expidition with nary a mention of hid
name again. I know I would have.

What?
 Am I the only one who thinks Pasquale is awesome and can't stand either Benedict or Mireya? Especially her, she's like the biggest
instigator ever ("So Benedict, what did you think about that incident with Pasquale yesterday?") but whenever she's confronted about something
she acts like she's just standing up for Benedict when in reality she's the one creating all the conflict, not Pasquale. Not that he's totally
innocent but at least he thinks everything he does is in the team's best interest. Benedict and Mireya always gloat in the comfort of their private
confessionals whenever Pasquale screws up.

Um, I'd like to gloat with Benedict if you know what I mean. The rest of the cast (with teh exception of the beautifully garbed porters) can fuck off.

Finally got to see the first 2 episodes downloaded and watched them. MB knows how to film a beautiful story, and kudos to his cinematography team.
These 4 are extremely interesting as are the head porter Louise and the Massai (?) warriors. Great show and great idea. I really wish that MB would bring back the EcoChallenge.. Oh ya, Pasquale is an arrogant dickhead. Granted he knows his shit, but the biggest egos make the biggest mistakes. |

Wow there's absolutely no way I would be one of the people volunteering to get water from the edge of that crocodile infested water!

Overall, I enjoyed this series and I would love to see more installments elsewhere around the world. The scenery was gorgeous, it was informative, there were
people to like and hate, clashing of personalities/egos . . . I hope MB can create more Expeditions, because I'll tune in for sure.

You forgot "Oh no the expedition might not go on."
Everything is fine.
"Oh no this could be the end of the expedition."
Everything is fine. |

This was basically a one team Eco-Challenge...complete with a typical team of 3 guys and 1 girl. I love his shows for the awesome scenes and interesting characters, and I loved Eco-Challenge, but he's never one for coming up with completely new concepts for shows. He takes the same two formats and applies them in every way he can imagine. |
