Dark Tourist

The segments are 15min, not a lot to really dive deep into the topic.

David is super judgemental and instead of exploring why peopld doing what he judges it based on his own reference and then starts to make rude jokes about it. Which then really makes it come across as if ge wants to show of himself. His voice overs are obsolete and don't really add a lot.

Very disappointing

Overall I found the series to be pretty interesting. The presenter didn't bother me as much as he seems to for others.

The series made me want to try a few of the things he did on the tour, especially the JFK tours look very interesting.

Take a little tour of the dark side of life!

I have no idea why everyone is hating on the host - I find him so intelligent, insightful and funny. I guess the humour in New Zealand and Australia (where I'm from) is different to people watching in the US. Everyone is saying he always looks shocked - wouldn't you be if you saw someone drinking someone's blood? Or getting overly excited and turned on by cannibalism? He's super interested yet knows how weird and crazy it all is so it's a mix of making fun of people as well as making fun of himself for being intrigued by it. I think people are taking him too seriously.

Either way just a good idea for a show too! Love the Japan episode. I want another season.

The series features interesting sights and events. Things you might not normally come across as they are rather niche and off the beaten track.

The one downside that I find bothersome is the host's being shocked at every slightly controversial thing. I don't know whether it's scripted that way or if he is easily offended, but it often comes across as ignorant.

Looking past that, however, I would recommend the series as it offers an insight into many places that are seen (almost) nowhere else on television.

There's lots of scenes containing dead animals, or harm to animals, in multiple episodes. Good to know if you're a half-decent human with some sort of sensitivity towards this
