Not any more than a 29-year-old that collects the My Little Ponies from the new show, I think.

you know every antique roadshow episode is in 3 parts and every part is one hour long and i have seen 3 season of this stuff .
my little ponies from the new show thats not all that odd you are just a toy collector plus i have see a 50 year old man that collects barbie dolls and a 26 year old man that collects female underwear and his oldest piece underwear is from 1833

I dont have much to add other than the mention of the new TMNT ... As far as I know, the concept has been trashed (thank God).

GEM - Gringo En Mexico.
It's basically a show about an old American guy who travels through all of Mexico and South America, showing the local culture and most importantly, EATING EVERYTHING HE CAN.
It's sadly only available in Spanish but it'd definitely fit somewhere like A&E.

Couldn't agree more! It should be noted that they could of done with a little less vulgarity, then again.. that's kind of what makes this show unique. I have to be honest - I havn't really seen much of the last season. I'll probably check that out pretty soon though.

No doubt named after the song All The Small Things by Blink 182. I'll give this a go too. I'm always up to try something new for an adventure.

Very understandable. I don't blame you. Some shows/movies can be quite complex and hard to follow if you're not paying attention.

I agree! I didn't hear about them tossing the new concept though. Probably for the best. The last I checked, from the words of Michael Bays, he had some pretty unique ideas with twists and was standing firmly behind the new layout. He was reassuring people that they would be entertained and he had it worked into the old concept somehow. Guess time will tell with this one. I am looking forward to watching the new The Amazing Spiderman when I get a chance.

Basically sounds like a Spanish version of An Idiot Abroad.
Edited the first post, accidentally put Spiderman 3 instead of The Amazing Spider. What was I thinking?
Thanks again to everyone who stopped by to post.

Except GEM predates that show by three years.

The guy's quite famous in Mexico and South America. He's welcome pretty much everywhere. Too bad the show doesn't seem to be broadcast in the US.
