I watched both seasons and had so much fun with it. The action was always good and the actors did a great job and the scenery was fantastic. Each episode was unique and very enjoyable. The fact that they filmed both seasons entirely in the Philippines with a lot of locals who were also very good was fantastic. I hope that the program returns.
