How goofy is this gonna be?
But I'll for sure be tuning in...

.

I've been seeing the previews for that show and wondering if it will be funny or make ya wanna slap em!
Hopefully it's funny
(Note: it's 7Central)

looking forward to it and thanks for the info, I had no idea

I'll be gone, but I'll set my recorder. Wondering if it will be as "real" as the "Real Housewives" series.... sure, they are about as "real" as can be, right? Mansions, fancy cars, spending thousands of dollars shopping for clothes,.... but I watch,

Thanks for the tip about this one,.. I hadn't heard about it!

My mom says every time she sees the ad...she thinks of me. She things it would have been a great show for our family.

I told her if it is like most reality TV shows...we would have never made it past the first qualify round. I would wager that not only have they never been RVing...I would bet they have never really camped either.

well, I just watched some previews on nbc.com all I can say is aaarrrggghhh.... I can't believe they let inexperienced people behind the wheels of those huge rigs! I think it's going to be one OMG! moment after another. Oh yes,.. I'll set my recorder. Wouldn't miss this for anything!

LOL! I haven't seen any previews...but from what you just said - I can't wait, either! We just don't watch network television in the summer - usually not much on.

What's even funnier (or scarier) is we'll be sharing the road with these folks! I'd say we'd all better stay home for awhile, but I guess they have already filmed the series. Thanks for reminding us about it - I saw something in the paper, but promptly forgot. Wednesday's postings should be fun!

Previews look like just another dumb reality show. I don't watch them.

What are they thinking putting something on at the same time as NCIS??? didn't want it to make a go?
and then its a reality show guess we will see don't watch reality shows for the most part but to have to give up NCIS don't know even if they are all reruns!!
sheila

OMG, they didn't even teach them how to drive these MH's. One guy didn't even know how to start it, then when they showed the wife driving, she was going all over the road because he was shoving a camera in her face Some of these people look normal and some were like extreme people in their own way, like the intense drawl of Ms. alabama and Mr. blowdryer Dad from New York! I guess nobody would watch boring people, Oh, well, I guess it's better than reruns!

Well I've watched it three times first - last - and only. Not much traveling- lots of complaining. Did enjoy them going across the Chain of Rocks bridge - we walked half way out it - but it was blocked to traffic.

.

I enjoyed the show. Cute family friendly challenges and like VIckie said, sure beats reruns!
Is it going to win any television awards? I doubt it.
A pleasant hour spent? Sure enough.

Mr. NY Hair will most likely drive me nuts.
And Mrs. NY Hair, "If nobody's gonna help with the black water, they're not using the toilet."
You go, girl!

My reviews are a little mixed. Too much yelling, editing is poor, MH are cool. I'll probably watch it again because nothing else is on.

Okay....Ernie & I laughed alot.... And....OMG....what characters!!! The family from CT were sure full of themselves.... I couldn't stand her....glad they were sent home.....Yeah, we'll watch it again.....just to see how they make out......
