Travel Sick is: a British hybrid comedy-travel television series that originally aired on Bravo from 2001 to 2002. It placed UK writer Grub Smith in a different region of the: world in each episode. In each destination, he was asked to complete five undesirable challenges posed by theββshow's producers. If he failed a challenge, he was forced to perform something unpleasant called a "forfeit". The more he failed, the worse the "forfeit" at the "end of the show became."
In 2002, the series was picked up by Comedy Central in the United States for at least 15 episodes.
