Comic Jack Whitehall and his father, Michael, are like an odd couple -- the son is jovial and the patriarch is stuffy. So traveling together makes for an interesting dynamic, as viewers experience in this travelogue series. Jack invites Michael to go with him on a trip through Southeast Asia in an attempt to try to strengthen their bond. Along the way, the Whitehalls partake in a number of unique experiences, including attending an elephant polo match in Bangkok and taking a primitive train ride in Cambodia. When it's over, the father and son reflect on the impact of their journey. Subsequent seasons take the father-son duo to other parts of the world.

Mary C 05/09/2023 I tried really hard to like this. Father and fun trying waaaay to hard to be funny and natural. Kitchy at best. See more breandan o 04/15/2022 I wanted to like it. I tried the first half of the season but couldn't continue. It's a scripted sitcom in which all the people on camera are actors of one sort or another. Right, they enter the hostel and, amazing!, there is already a camera filming them as they arrive. It's great how the people in the room didn't notice that being set up. Oh, nude yoga, the two of them discuss the P sizes of everyone else in the room and no one else hears or notices or reacts. See more 12/18/2021 I'm a big fan of Jack, but really? This was just a scripted, junk-filled piece of meh! No heart or emotion, I didn't feel a single thing! NEVER AGAIN. See more 03/22/2021 OK, I'll be the voice of reason here and say this staged excuse for a show is entertaining only to the easily pleased. The format has been done to death and I will never understand why people enjoy shows like these when they're so clearly fake and badly acted? See more andrew g 09/30/2020 Good programme, very funny. Nice relationship between Michael and Jack See more 05/01/2020 Binged and love it!!! This is the type of comedy I love... (Never a fan of slapstick comedy). I love their relationship!!! Plus Asia travels are always interesting to me... Give it a try, you'll definitely enjoy it :) See more Read all reviews
