I'm so sick and tired of the paranormal junk that's taken over the entire Travel Channel. I used to always turn to this channel when I would turn on the tv. I miss watching all of the real travel shows like No Reservations, Bizarre Foods, etc. This channel has turned into my least favorite.

I hate when they yell and scream but don't have any proof. You are investigators why in the hell you are jumping when you need to tell the camera man to point over there. The yelling is scaring the ghost away... lol. Lord Jesus!

Lazy writing
July 27, 2019

I used to watch this channel all the time. I don't have a problem with paranormal shows but it's been way overdone. What I have the most problem with though is the lazy writing on these shows. I don't need highlight shows where the same thing is repeated over and over. That is just plain lazy writing. Gives the writing an excuse not to write new content. I have now gotten to the point that if something is nothing more than an extended version, or highlight show, I delete it and don't watch. I watched it once, I don't need to see it again, it wasn't that interesting the first time around. Come on, don't drag out shows such as Ghost adventurers during their hiatus just by editing together a bunch of stuff from the regular season and put it on for 2 hours. BORING. Please come up with a new show, let's get back to travel shows.

Programming
December 24, 2020

The travel channel used to be a good channel. It was very informative and very pleasant to watch seeing all the different countries in the world. Now the travel channel is nothing but ghosts and evil. We have enough for that reality in the world today we don't need this. I would hope in light of the ratings that you would readjust your channel back to what it used to be when people love to watch it feels good about it made plans for their lives for vacations because you were giving information that was necessary. The information you're giving all seems immoral and Godless.

Crap Shows Travel Channel
November 18, 2018

Bring back real travel shows. Josh Gates and Andrew Zimmerman are the only thing this show has. All these ghost, paranormal, haunting shows are crap and should only be aired in October. Please bring on the good historic/travel based shows.

I did not know the travel channel had a website. The only show I have been watching on the travel channel is Anthony Bourdain No Reservations. The site has videos of most of the shows and that is great too. The reason I am writing this review is to tell people that they have a mobile version for phone that can act as a free travel guide to where ever you are going!

I do not use the foul language that Gates does so why should I watch him on television!? We can even watch WE TV without the language Gates uses. Mysteries at the Museum host doesn't use that type language. This is a civil society. The only use for the foul mouth Gates has is to shock people when either making a point or describing a worthless person. Its a real shame Gates has to use the language he does on national television... you've lost a viewer.

I just recorded an episode of "These woods are haunted" on the Travel Channel. It was advertised as "new", but was a rerun. 3rd time this has happened. False advertising and annoying as hell. Not to mention you have to basically hold the remote in your hand to fast forward through the asinine amount of commercials for "discoveryplus". Done watching this crap channel.

Deliberate deception
April 11, 2022

Why do you continually list your shows as current? You rebroadcast shows dated 2020-2021 when 10 years old. Just because You purchased the show in 2021 does not mean the show is. Are you so desperate for viewers that tricking them in to believing these are new shows. Several of your shows deliberately dated this way. Try producing your own current shows and stop misleading the public.

Trump Supporter
November 11, 2019

I love all the shows as a Trump Supporter its all true. I believe everything even that monsters are real. I am so glad we do not live in a democracy and we live in a republic so my vote here in Ohio means more than all the votes in CA. Go electoral college. Glad I decide who becomes president not a NY or CA person. I decide who becomes president and i believe in ghosts.

The Travel channel is horrible! It needs to be taken off of the air immediately! What once was a channel whose programming focused on our beautiful world, and the various fascinating cultures that it contains, now focuses on Satan, demons and ghosts. Your programming director needs to be fired, and the channel taken off of the air!

Ghost Adventures a SCAM!
December 11, 2018

The travel channel is fine programming except for the ridiculous show Ghost Adventures. What s sham. Halloween 2018 proved it beyond the shadow of a doubt and is an insult to the travel channel viewers.

You were my favorite channel jow I barely watch thing of canceling my subscription. I watched travel Channel everyday I like the spooky, but there hasn't been any new show for a while, where's dead files? Destination fear was canceled and that was a very good show actually one of my favorites and nick Groff every show he had on your channel is gone? I and holzer files is an awesome show I don't understand there'd nothing new except ghost nhuner? It makes no sense to me at all and I'm not the only one I don't like ghost adventures he's very arrogant and I use to like that show but now I feel it's all fake. Anyways please let me know when something new is coming Where's dead files? My favorite of all of them?

Dissapointment
September 17, 2019

I still remember that i couldn't wait to come back from work to see Ian and the rest of the team, travelling like crazy, from tropical destinations, through desserts, through mountains and distant shores.
Almost as if this period belonged to another life...

Waste of time
October 12, 2019

I had to changed channel when I was watching holzer files... I don't think that woman medium is real medium. She seems she doesn't know at all or she just so bad of acting. I hate watching paranormal if this group are on.

Impractical Jokers is a Stupid & Idiotic show. Please, remove it from programming!
I don't watch the travel channel because of this farce! It only takes up a of of programming time. Anyone that watches this farce does NOT have a life!
