The first season of "Trip to Five" was a secret to those in the know;
Like an unspoiled route in a touristic city put together by a local tour guide.
It was a docu-reality show about an organized trip to Italy, which aired two years ago on the Travel Channel (produced by Anani Studio), became a cult (and rightly so), and even led to the casting of "Big Brother" (Rachel Boretta).
The success upgraded this program in a new season, which was filmed in Israel, and in the broadcast slot this week here.
The basic idea remains as it was - five characters take turns on the basis of the group guides, the others score points, and whoever gets the highest score at the end of the week wins a vacation.
In short, "come eat with me" in the travelers edition.

But something stutters about the corporate edition of reality trash - the initial charm has evaporated.
In the new episodes, characters who define themselves as "content creators", "content creators" or "network hosts" stand out.
Have you noticed how popular the term "Osia" has become among celebs and those who want to be?
Since there is no process that authorizes people to become Oshiya - then anyone who defines himself as such is also called "Oshiya" and we have nothing to do about it.
Nowadays "Oshiyot" are people who try to make a living from being themselves, and the content they produce is a record of their routine lives.
According to the dictionary, the word Oshia describes an important and well-known person in his field.
But it lost its proportions a long time ago.
Even the term "content creator" or "network star" describes almost every person with a smartphone today.
"We are network stars in our profession," the couple of hollow Tiktokers (Michael and Jordan) who compared himself to the Kardashians explained to the viewers.
"I think I'm much more interesting than her," O'Shea, who coined the name as "Kirdishian," seriously stated.
Known in their field?

In front of them they cast someone who calls herself a "content anchor", and she explained to them the difference: "There is funny content, which is what you do, and there is deep content. Sticking a grif is less depth."
And yet, all these stations have at least one thing in common - they all strive to develop and grow, to turn from just content stations into real reality stations.
The best thing is to be a reality show host.
And that's how "trip to five" turned into a mud war for screen time.
In order to steal focus, everyone stings with wit, condescends, belittles, argues, tries to be funny and dreams of becoming famous and rich.
The winner will be the one who will be cast in the next season of the next reality show.
