Man vs. Food: Season One (2009) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Man Vs. Food.. Ahh yes, a guilty pleasure. Now in my travels, should I happen upon one of these locations, I most definitely will stop in for a bite to eat. Adam is a great host. For him being a New Yorker and taking on an eating challenge in Boston and walking out with new friends, that speaks well of the kind of guy he is. Well done Adam. I look forward to Season Two, Three, and so on. =]
I am giving the DVD 4 stars for the DVD itself, not the content. There is no PLAY ALL option. Also, the DVD does not automatically cycle down to the next episode when one finishes. For someone into marathon DVD sessions of TV series, this annoyance is, well, a drag to say the least.
The bonus material is AWESOME. Loved the best places to pig out. That's worth like 3 or 4 episodes in itself.
Again, 5 starts for the show and content. 4 stars because of the DVD itself.
