Three Sheets


Three Sheets might be the best travel show ever.  The show bills itself as an international pub crawl where host comedian Zane Lamprey travels around the world exploring regional drinking culture.  You might recognize Lamprey from Food Network's Have Fork, Will Travel which is similar to Three Sheets but more focused on local cuisine and not nearly as hilarious. In each episode Zane travels to a different country and drinks the local specialty in local bars with some pretty amazing locals.  Plenty of ridiculousness ensues and the next day he attempts to alleviate is hangover with a local remedy.  There are some great recurring characters including his old college friend Steve Mckenna who gets legendarily drunk, Pleepleus the monkey, the Beer Hunter and a member of his production crew who has a penchant for throwing up.  Some of my favorite episodes are Champagne, Croatia, Munich and Taipei.  Three Sheets airs Friday nights on MOJO but you can watch it for free anytime on their website and on hulu.com.  Cheers!

you know I heard some chatter about this great drinking travel show and watched "thirsty traveler" which was boring as hell and I thought "jeez these idiots will watch anything" but it sounds like this is the good stuff.
