This was really unique when it debuted. It's a cross between a scripted comedy and a travel documentary. And parts of it was recorded on a handheld video camera.
The show was a summer series in 1990 and sadly only lasted 6 episodes. I always connect it to Northern Exposure. Not only does it have a similar feel, but for 6 weeks it was promoted during Northern Exposure's first season.
I transferred all 6 episodes years ago, but just now saw the first 5 episodes have been uploaded to YouTube here. There's also incredible commentary on the making of the show.
Here's the missing 6th episode "The Balkans" from the Internet Archive. This is from the original CBS airing - the commercials have all been edited out though (sorry, but this was one of the earlier shows I transferred from VHS and that's how I did it at first).
DISCLAIMER: I only upload episodes of TV series that are completely unavailable in any format (not currently broadcast, streaming or available to purchase in any way) for archival purposes. If the show suddenly becomes available, all files will be deleted.
