How far would you go to get a good cup of coffee?
Today, Travel Channel announced the debut of the new, original series, “Dangerous Grounds,” premiering on Monday, November 5 at 10:00 p.m., ET/PT (moves to regular time slot on Tuesday, November 13 at 9:00 p.m., ET/PT). Over the course of eight one-hour episodes shot in remote locales such as Haiti, Bolivia, Madagascar and Borneo, Travel Channel follows coffee magnate and globe-trotting adventurer Todd Carmichael (who made headlines in 2008 when he set the world record for the fastest solo, unsupported journey to the South Pole) as he traverses the globe on the hunt for rare strains of coffee beans.
“Coffee plays such a significant role in our culture, both in the U.S. and abroad; however, few know precisely where their morning cup comes from and how it’s sourced,” said Andy Singer, General Manager, Travel Channel. “’Dangerous Grounds’ takes viewers on an authentic, gripping journey as expert Todd Carmichael – one of this generation’s true explorers – scours through some of the most remote, and often dangerous locations, in order to find the ultimate bean for an exceptional cup of coffee.”
