Yes Matt, the accent is a key component. Thanks for the alert Carla.

If Leonardo DiCaprio can do it in "Blood Diamond," then I am sure Matt can too!

Let me ask a question about the game drives: are there any actual guests from the lodge on those drives, or is it just the driver and the webcam? I don't see/hear anyone else and wondered why a lodge would pay for one of its employees to go around and show wildlife solely for a webcast.

Chris-
It's just the crew I believe.

Hit this link and then scroll down. It will give you a couple of bios on the folks in the jeep.

It would also be nice to have this on cable/satellite TV. Another "reality" show. Could easily replace any one of 200 worthless channels.
regards - tom
ps - in fact, I'd trade it for ALL of the 200 worthless channels

Actually, to think about it......the Big Cat Diary began when in 1996? that possibly was the first reality show before all these garbage television shows were made.......

What annoys me more is absolute garbage reality tv like American Idol etc etc., televised around the world including here in India....

Well, I don't consider American Idol a reality show. Just a musical(?) program.

Now how about "Orange County Choppers", or "Deadliest Catch", or "Dirtiest Jobs" or "Meerkat Manor". Those are pretty good reality shows. Have you seen any of those Hari?

Only Meerkat manor from your list, Tom.....i may have seen commercials for one or two of the other ones. Didnt catch my attention.....

The djuma show may be good when they deceide to air it....fodorites may recognize some sabi sands leopards that have home ranges covering across lodge zones.......

oh, and Tom......American Idol had the worst ever contestant Sanjaya Malaikar. He was of Indian descent and apparently created quite a bit of media hype all over the world.....

Let's just remember that American Idol was started by the Brits.

I think Matt has to provide a sample of his accent.

sorry ladies, but put any of us men here in khakis, in a rangerover, on a game drive and we'd look better than Pieter, and NOT need an accent.
