Bravo did a totally cool show called Long Way Round about two guys that drive around the world on BMW motorcycles.

The last show had the guy's father fly in from Scotland, and he saw his dad, screamed "Dad!" ran to him and hugged him, and kept saying "I love you, Dad."

The show's producers also flew in both men's families. The guys had spent the entire series talking about how much they missed their wives and children, and the men's families ran out and hugged them, and their kids hugged them.

Man, it was so sweet, really a tear-jerker, to see what love these men had for their wives and kids, and the love shown for his Dad.

That's the way things should be on TV...normal families that love each other, men who love their fathers.

Interesting thing is, one of the guys was Ewan Mcgregor who starred in an absolutely horrific movie called Trainspotting, yet he is a nice family man, by the likes of this TV show.

Only complaint is, it was way too short, they could have spent another season on all their adventures.

"Long Way Round" is run on Sky One (Sky TV?) in the UK. I'm not sure if it's a Bravo production or a UK production brought here. Ok, it's possible they co-produced the program. I didn't even know Bravo was running it.
