A live 12 hour road trip will air Friday, November 27, at 9 a.m. ET on the Travel Channel. The BBC of the UK has also commissioned a series of programs doing away with commentary, script or drama.
This format is called Slow TV. It became extremely popular in Norway and one program of a 5 and and half day live cruise attracted 70% of Norway to watch part of the program.
Thomas Hellum, a Norwegian television producer, shares more about what Slow TV is all about.
