The Daily Star, Oneonta, N.Y., Friday, September 14, 2012 10 come to America: Brooklyn, N.Y. A/Otsego Manor 2 x 3 TV Media A Farewell tour: Last season for 'No Reservations' and running, having pre- miered on Labor Day. And if fans seem to be relishing ev- ery new episode, it's likely be- cause they know that the end is near. No, not the end of the world (although it might as well be, from some fans' reac- tion) – it just so happens the acclaimed series' ninth sea- son is also its last. Airing Monday nights, the travel and food series has been a fixture on the Travel Channel since it debuted in 2005. The Emmy award-win- ning series has covered more than 60 countries and 716,000 miles (or roughly 28 trips around the world), as Bourdain brought global cul- new season of "Antho- ny Bourdain: No Reser- vations" is already up Anthony Bourdain in a scene from "No Reservations" tures to the at-home viewer by immersing himself in the local culture and cuisine. Its popularity also led to Bour- dain's second Travel series, "The Layover," which de- buted last year. It's actually rather fitting, Back in May, it was an- nounced that Bourdain was joining CNN as host of an up- coming weekend program covering food and travel. The idea of hosting three shows isn't unheard of, but when you consider that he also heads his own publishing line, writes for the HBO series "Treme" and makes appear- ances on other shows includ- ing "Top Chef," it's not sur- prising that Bourdain would look to pare down his busy schedule – and reduce some of the travel that would be in- volved. And with several suc- cessful seasons under his belt, Bourdain undoubtedly hoped to have "No Reservations" go out on a high note without running the risk of becoming formulaic. Bourdain fans might take comfort in the fact that the proposed format for the CNN show doesn't look to be far from the "No Reservations" model. In an interview with L.A. Weekly, Bourdain indicat- ed that he'll be working with the same production team and camera crew, but that the destinations will just likely be tied to past or current news stories (in keeping with CNN's position as a worldwide news organization, after all). But that's looking ahead to then, that the last season has been dubbed "The Final Tour." The farewell tour will take viewers from one side of the world to the other and back again, with a final stop in an area that has long been known as a melting pot for the diverse cultures that have 2013. Let's get back to the present. True to form, Bour- dain isn't letting the series go out with a whimper. So far, the season has featured Bour- dain's stops in Austin, Texas, for the 2012 SXSW Interactive Film and Music Festival, and a visit to Sydney, Australia. There's still a lot more in store before the final curtain call on Nov. 5.
