The Golden Isthmus
The Panama Canal was opened in 1914-the first man-made link between the Atlantic and the Pacific. For more than 50 years it has handled the ever-increasing traffic of world shipping. Today it can no longer cope. The modern solution is to cut another canal with nuclear explosives.
Five nations are now involved in the search for a new route. Their final decision will involve not just politics and economics but the social problems of the peoples who live there.
The Golden Isthmus is the story of 450 years of man's efforts to bridge the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and of the native peoples who have had to suffer them.

The restaurants that Guy visits are usually well-known among locals and other people in the region. While at each location, Fieri talks to the staff as well as the customers to get their thoughts on the food.

Family Guy
Family Guy follows Peter Griffin the endearingly ignorant dad, and his hilariously offbeat family of middle-class New Englanders in Quahog, RI. Lois is Peter's wife, a stay-at-home mom with no patience for her family's antics. Then there are their kids: 18-year-old Meg is an outcast at school and the Griffin family punching bag; 13-year-old Chris is a socially awkward teen who doesn't have a clue about the opposite sex; and one-year-old Stewie is a diabolically clever baby whose burgeoning sexuality is very much a work in progress. Rounding out the Griffin household is Brian the family dog and a ladies' man who is one step away from AA.
