      Audience Member Four baby boomers travel the world, engaging in tired "hilarious" antics while reminding Americans why they are the worst generation, and reminding the world why they hate Americans. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I LOVE this show!!!! Delightful and funny! More please!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member There's a bit of confusion in its reality-ness. It seems the makers could not make up their minds.. And I can't decide if this was funny or not. I know for sure that I'm wasting some time. If you're a friend, take my advice, read the green tomato reviews, if you're white trash and stupid...ENJOY! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member This show is HILARIOUS for all ages. My mom and I first saw it together and were crying laughing. The whole family has started watching it. I love that they have little facts about each place they visit and seeing all of the countries is fascinating. The cast is perfect together the banter and dynamics is magical. Definitely my new favorite show. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Good, old fashioned fun. Five guys who know how to entertain are kind enough to bring us along on a personal and emotional journey. Had high hopes for the show and those hopes were far exceeded. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member With so much sadness in the world, this sitcom egnites giggles and light hearted fun laughter.

      Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe They're not exactly Bob Hope and Bing Crosby, but the road to Tokyo is amusingly padded with each playing off the other. Oct 7, 2020 Full Review Amber Dowling TheWrap Better Late Than Never is a surprisingly delightful (albeit ridiculous) late-summer entry for NBC... Jun 14, 2018 Full Review Dan Fienberg Hollywood Reporter It's definitely not the lowest common denominator version of this show and I was relieved by that, but its aspirations are limited. Aug 23, 2016 Full Review Dominic Patten Deadline Hollywood Daily Leaving all but the loosest of narrative and structure on this side of the Pacific, the William Shatner, Henry Winkler, George Foreman and Terry Bradshaw-starring reality travel show is not to be taken seriously but damn entertaining. Oct 7, 2020 Full Review Andy Dehnart Reality Blurred This is miles away from a travel documentary series, but it manages to have a good time while watching others-famous others-enjoy themselves while learning about different cultures. Feb 27, 2020 Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv It's... painfully obvious that the series is scripted. You can see and hear where pithy comments are dropped in during post-production.
