Destination X Finale Recap

A new adventure competition series has arrived on NBC, hosted by Jeffrey Dean Morgan in Destination X. The series follows a group of players who will travel a country in a blacked-out bus with the goal of figuring out where they are each week. The pilot episode laid out rather well in featuring what we can expect from the show. I recap the first episode, sharing my thoughts on what unfolded and the big elimination.

What is Destination X?

In the bold travel competition series, Europe is turned into a real-life gameboard as complete strangers are invited to participate in the trip of a lifetime and the ultimate geo-guessing contest. These adventurous players will traverse each country on a blacked-out “Destination X” bus with the goal of figuring out where the “X” they are each week. In each episode, the players disembark the bus to visit unique and unfamiliar tourist attractions that have been gamified into experiential challenges. They will need to rely on their knowledge of pop culture, history, geography and observational skills to win clues to their current location and earn an all-important advantage.
