The Canadian producer behind the hit Anthony Bourdain show Parts Unknown is a part of the team launching a new docuseries that spotlights Canadian hidden gems.
We don't know about you, but there's been a Parts Unknown-shaped hole in our hearts ever since Anthony Bourdain's untimely death in 2018.
While no one could possibly replace Bourdain and, thusly, no show could replace Parts Unknown, Canadian fans of the show will soon be treated to something that might just curb the craving.
Coming to CBC this October, Locals Welcome is a new docuseries produced by the same team behind Parts Unknown, but this time, it's all taking place on home soil.
Locals Welcome premieres at 9 p.m. local on Sunday, Oct. 5, on CBC and CBC Gem.
