Meet the cast of new reality adventure series 'Destination X,' featuring 'The Challenge,' 'The Traitors,' and 'Love Island' alums, and hosted by Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
https://ew.com/destination-x-jeffrey-dean-morgan-meet-the-cast-11740445?
NBC's Destination X, hosted by The Walking Dead and Supernatural star Jeffrey Dean Morgan, combines a trip across Europe with a guessing game, and features some reality show alums from The Challenge, The Traitors, and Love Island playing against normal civilians.
Competitors travel through different countries living in a blacked-out bus, and their goal is to figure out where they've been dropped off at each destination by using tourist attractions, hidden clues disguised as artifacts, and challenges. At the end of each episode, they'll enter the Map Room to make their guess on where they think they are, and the furthest from the location is sent home. Ultimately, the last player standing meets the host and wins $250,000.

Seeing how dumb Americans are of the rest of the world, it should be a lot of fun.

Vsmart, lol, while also thinking how sad and true it is.
And what do they mean by Traitors alum? Aren't they all from other reality shows? Guess I'll go check the link to answer my own question.

OK, I looked. I have no idea who anyone is except for Josh Martinez. And he is dumb. He'll never figure it out.

Any early reviews? I recorded this and am wondering if it is worth watching or should I save my time and delete?

I watched. too soon to tell. I will say that they have some beautiful shots of their destination. The game aspect seems a bit thin right now, but it remains to be seen if this show is good enough to hold my interest.

Josh was the only one I recognized... and kind of glad that he already screwed up.
Do we think Rick purposefully mislead him?
Lexie, the games/challenges are more like escape room games, if that makes sense. So it's a little hard to follow, but since we don't know where they are until it's revealed, you can play along.

I don't think Rick purposefully misled him, but I'm glad to see him gone! I think that team really thought it was the northern city and that one member from their team kind of hedged that by going a bit outside the city. I think they were just a bit clueless on that team -- all except their leader who figured they were onto the wrong city, but let them think that so that she was more right than they, in case she had to go into the map!

I thought of the 5 sent to the map room, 3 guessed the correct city, and only Josh and one other (Rachel?) got it wrong. Rachel just beat Josh because she did hedge by going a bit south of Milan.

Yes, 3 did guess correct, and it was all 3 from the same team as Josh. Rick only told Josh of the northern city guess. Now why Josh believed Rick and not his own team, that had figured it out, who knows. Except that Josh is dim. Bye Bye Josh!

I was entertained, for some reason I was thinking Romeo and Juliet were in Verona, LOL. But I now see that you have to pay attention to all the little things, it reminds me of the mole.
Guess I can't play computer games and just listen to the show. I do see how some of the clues could mislead you and I didn't realize I should be looking around at the locations they were in.
I don't get how Wine indicates Rome, maybe that was one of the misleading clues.
I loved that "Biggie" said he knows nothing about roman numerals above ten, cracked me up.
Glad Josh is gone!

It's not fully clear how the clues work, because that big task when they were in the well was in Orvieto, which is not Rome. So I guess they drove more, not knowing what direction. And yes, the Romeo and Juliet (Jesus lol) clue, would be Verona. And the Wine is just generic Italy. So clues are kind of iffy, which I guess is the point so that some will guess wrong and be knocked out of the game.

I enjoyed it. They could stop having so many reaction shots and spend more on the scenery and gaming. I love JD Morgan so that's a plus.
Brenda, I was LOL that she thought the J was for Jesus LOL!
