DESCRIPTION:
(from Travel Channel's press release, February 2015) If you build it, they will come! Deep in the middle of the Peruvian Amazon, two childhood friends, Rusty Johnson and Stephan Jablonski, have left behind the comforts of home in New York to attempt to build a world-class resort in this exotic locale. In Travel Channel's new original docu-series, "Hotel Amazon," premiering on Monday, March 9 at 10 p.m. ET/PT, Johnson - a wildlife lecturer and humanitarian - pursues his dream of opening up a top-notch resort in the Amazonian jungle with the financial help of Jablonski - a New York firefighter and a winner on popular game show "Wheel of Fortune" - who risks all of his winnings to invest in making his longtime friend's dream hotel a reality. Over the course of six one-hour episodes, the friendship will be tested as they struggle to adapt to a wilderness filled with relentless downpours, thieving monkeys, limited essential supplies and more than just a few peculiar locals. |
